When your flight is delayed at SFO, you can go to a drag show. My former home town is one of a kind, and I left my heart here. #sanfrancisco #pride

@elonmusk Not true. In 2022, households led by undocumented immigrants paid $75.6B in total taxes. This includes $29.0B in state and local taxes and $46.6B in federal taxes. However, these people cannot receive the benefits from the taxes they pay (e.g. SS).

The REAL reason so many Democrats are upset about entitlements (social security, medical, etc) fraud investigations is that they are using your taxpayer money as handouts to attract and retain ILLEGAL immigrants. Their future voters. That’s what it’s all about. Truth.

Samantha Harvey has won the Booker Prize for her novel, “Orbital,” a gorgeous, profound love letter to Earth, to the universe, and to humanity. If you need perspective or need to be transported, read this astonishing book. #Booker #reading #hope theguardian.com/books/2024/nov…

"We are a nation of immigrants." #KamalaHarris Remembering my great-grandmother Amelia Frankovic, who was put on a ship at age 10 without her parents, and no money, and sent to the U.S. in 1907. As a child she worked cleaning boarding houses in Minnesota. #ellipse #2024Election

Just finished @ClaireLombardo's epic "Same as it Ever Was," and I have no idea why she isn't getting the same treatment Jonathan Franzen did years ago. She writes with the same verbal dexterity, four times the psychological acuity, ten times the magic, and twenty times the heart.
