  1.  @brianphillips9152  Interesting idea being mentioned: using federal lands and/or tribal lands as safe havens within each state. I definitely think the tribal lands have potential value since those are sort of sovereign territory? Obviously only if that nation is interested. A safe haven should definitely exist for incest and rape victims. I cannot even imagine the PTSD and emotional harm caused by forcing a rape victim to carry the rapist's baby for nine months. An extra nine months of trauma and the danger of childbirth forced upon her by the State. It is breathtaking in its cruelty.

  2. Using religion this way is vile.

  3. Very short sighted to imagine that the world will always be completely dependent upon plastic and oil. For instance, most people understand the problem with plastic pollution in the oceans, so they are moving away from disposable plastic water bottles and straws. That's just one small example. This problem with plastic and oil started to grow in the 1950s approximately. We can break a bad habit, and many of us are already doing that with mass transit, bicycles, reusable water bottles, solar panels, etc etc etc. The future is here. We can meet the moment, but we can't continue to live in the past.

  4. Rosalyn and Jimmy, two angels looking after us! Heavens knows we need the help! Rest in Power, President Carter. Thank you for your campaign, VP Harris.

  5. The second amendment has outlived its usefulness to the nation if it cannot protect innocent people. It's time to draft a new amendment to enshrine public safety in the Constitution. Enough. 🗽

  7. Strange, because the musicians who created 80s rock n roll responded to the need to publicize issues in the news. Think about Bruce Springsteen "Your Hometown", Billy Joel's "Goodnight Saigon" and "Allentown", Little Stevie's "I won't play SunCity", the amazing group that came together for "We are the World". Living with your head in the sand is dangerous, and probably a bit painful. 🎵🎶💙🌊💙🌊🎶🎵

  11. CEOs got a 40% raise. How many vehicles did the CEOs construct? The workers deserve a 40% raise, especially because their givebacks helped save the auto companies in 2008. Time for CEOs to step up. 🗽

  12. There was a gun company in NYS that moved out of their factory and went to Georgia. Better for us, maybe fewer guns! But I cannot wait to see a new business move into that factory, modernize and start producing a new more positive product!! 🗽

  13. The recall was about two months ago. I believe it is a applesauce targeted for toddlers. I believe it is a company that used cinnamon from South America processed in a factory that doesn't have the same inspection and safety standards that a USA factory would have to clear. You should look for the original story.

  18. Thank you for mentioning the housing situation, a complex issue but an essential issue. This industry created havoc when the housing bubble burst in 2008. The housing industry should not be trusted to police itself. Go Kamala go! Go Tim go! 💙🌊💙🌊

  19. Sounds like a twisted arms race. But you know who benefits from all these guns? The gun dealers. Wonder which vendor will get the contract to supply Ohio school boards with guns for staff?? And the taxpayers are paying for this dangerously foolish idea. It's about fewer guns, not more guns. Who is not understanding this?

  20. ​ @Magdalenkaization Wow, I never heard that story! Thanks for sharing that! Reminds me of my parents, always up for a good argument, but rarely apart. Rest in power, Rosalynn Carter! 🗽

  21. This election had a 1.5% margin. This is not a mandate. BTW midterm elections are right around the corner in 2026. Celebrate 250 years of DEMOCRACY with 60 Senators and the House majority so we can pass legislation to repair some damage. Stay awesome. 🗽💙🗽

  22. I am not confused about the systems we use to elect presidents. I am aware of the electoral college, famously a tool that conflicts with the popular will of the people. The popular vote, your "team" won by a 1.5%, not a result to crow about and not a mandate. The other half of the nation continues to matter and continues to hold sway and have agency as we approach the mid term elections in 2026. Important to remember that crucial truth, because the other "team" doesn't have a reputation for telling the truth. Through the firehose of falsehoods, just keep your head down, stay in touch with representatives, monitor their voting patterns, and be prepared for the midterm elections in 2026. Stay aware, stay awesome. 💙🗽💙

  27. If she was sincere about serving the nation, she would start by running for her town council. She's running for president with zero government experience? Really? Nope. VP Harris has my vote. 💙🌊💙🌊

  28. Yes, many people do live together before they get married for that very reason. Writing a book full of policies is meaningless unless you have held a position where you have to implement those policies and see if your ideas actually work in reality. I don't have time to waste on toxic comments. I think I have made myself clear. No corporation hires a CEO with zero experience. No president should have zero government experience. Luckily, Kamala Harris has experience as a prosecutor, district attorney, attorney general, Senator, and vice president too. Go Kamala! 💙🌊🗽

  29. Correct, the pumpkin head was a nightmare, especially for the one million+ USA residents we lost to COVID. If you want more nightmares, vote for people who have zero experience. I am voting for Kamala, because I want someone who knows how government can work if you do it right. 💙🌊💙🌊

  33.  @lorrainemcnally6717  Thank you thank you! The poll that matters is the ballot box. The UK elections were also AWESOME because they were the perfectly timed response to the right wing shift in the EU election. Be well, stay awesome. 🗽💙🌊💙🌊🗽

  37. They already did a story on milk. The supply of pasteurized milk is safe. People who use "raw" milk.....well, they shouldn't do that anyway. Unpasteurized milk is not safe.

  38. Existing immigration law is at least decades out of date. That's why it's almost impossible to enforce effectively. It's not the 1990s.

  39. ​ @susanabrown1736 Yes, I did hear that exchange, sounded like a classic trip up that a person with a stutter might make. He was talking about how better tax rates would help him pay for future legislative initiatives, like expanding the pharmacy price controls he got for Medicare patients needing insulin. He meant to say, "We beat Big Pharma" not "We beat Medicare." He was describing how he wanted to extend that program to more medications and more people beyond just Medicare recipients. I really wasn't confused.

  44. The majority of the USA population supports gun safety legislation. It seems that many neighbor countries take gun safety seriously as well.

  45. Thank you. Comprehensive federal gun safety legislation is needed, because irresponsible governors like Abbott will never fix this. Also, repeal PLCAA to restore liability to gun manufacturers, and their own lawyers will insist on gun safety protocols at point of sale to demonstrate due diligence in court proceedings. Be well, stay safe, stay active. Uvalde warriors, never forget, never give up. 🦋💚💜💚🦋

  46. Yes, I heard that too. And the university left the case unresolved rather than investigate further. From another thread, another post indicated that the same university had an incident in 2016 involving hazing and football players. Hmm....

  47. Please remember, fear sells guns. Take several deep breaths; contact your representatives to share your legislative goals. But keep your money in your pocket. The gun vendors enjoy the higher anxiety levels that often follow a mass shooting, because fear sells guns. Stay calm, be well.

  50. The boy's mom is already in jail. But....what if Virginia had gun safety laws that actually work? Mandated gun safes, for instance, instead of Mom putting the gun in her purse on her bureau. Just saying....
