Unpopular post...Only in America could anyone think that a prison sentence for more than twenty years is not harsh enough. If you know anything about prison, its utterly life destroying. I hope that we can move beyond the relentless desire for punishment. We need so much more.

Last night our country lost a true patriot, Congressman John Lewis. It was an honor of a lifetime to serve with him, even for a brief period of time. May we honor his legacy by continuing his commitment to justice and equality, and to cause good trouble along the way.

RT if you agree.
This is deeply concerning, but it's more proof our decision to delay schools was the right one. We know children can carry and spread COVID-19. If we want to keep our economy open and reopen schools, every Kansan needs to do their part by wearing a mask. thehill.com/changing-america…

Watching President Obama’s graduation address tonight I think I finally understand Obamagate. It’s the scandal of having a president being able to speak with empathy, humor, insight, inspiration and in complete and coherent sentences.

Most of Captain Crozier’s sailors gathered to cheer him and honor him as he left the Teddy Roosevelt. Most of Eddie Gallagher’s sailors testified against him for war crimes. Guess which one Trump and his collaborators think is an American military hero?

I would just like to take a moment for gratitude in these trying times. Thank you, little baby Jesus, that Kris Kobach is not the Gov. of Kansas right now. Because, you know, science. #grateful – at Overland Park, KS

Common theme for people with Covid19 symptoms struggling to get tested: • Centers refusing to test unless you prove exposure • You can only prove exposure if someone near you tests positive • No one around you tests positive because they can’t prove exposure to get tested
