@izamamaa Perhaps. Or, watch and evaluate a man's character. Prayerfully exercise discernment. See how he handles stress, treats people, get to know his friends and loved ones. Determine if you share the same values on family and life. If so, get married and then have children.

We need three functioning, independent branches of govt. That was the Framers' design and intent. Checks and balances only works when each branch, while interdependent, recognizes their duty to operate. We do not have that right now and it is crippling our nation.

11.51% of @TSA officers scheduled to work Saturday called out. That's the highest nationwide call out number for the shutdown. 3250+ employees called out, according to an agency spokesman who blamed democrats for the shutdown in a statement @CBSNews

The number of fatal crashes over the past year is shocking and unacceptable. Our systems are all at a breaking point and we want to live as if that isn't the case. Instead of petty fighting to gain political points and advantages over the other side, we need leaders to lead.

My wife and I were talking the other day about potential career options for my 15 yrs old daughter who really struggles in school and is likely not college bound/material. For guys it’s easy… Don’t want to go to college, pick a trade or figure something else out such as a police officer, firefighter etc. It’s not as easy for girls. I think she would do well in sales since she is attractive, has the personality and is extremely social (spends hours everyday talking on the phone to all her friends). For parents with daughters who aren’t on the college path…what are some real, high-income career options you’ve seen work?

@SimoneHCollins Oof. This is as cynical as his post. I love living in a city (and have a normal sized fridge). Most of my family live in suburbs and enjoy them. I think it's possible for people to genuinely enjoy urban life and for others to enjoy suburban life. We're all different!

Can someone explain to us what urban 34-year-olds are doing in the cities that's so fun and special? We remember walking to the grocery store, trying to pack a week's worth of food into a small fridge and freezer, and maybe being robbed blind for mediocre food at a restaurant.

How do people in the suburbs genuinely look forward to Friday night on the couch, Saturday morning at Costco, and call that a weekend? Like you really moved out of the city just to LARP as your parents at 34?

@tbonier @SenFettermanPA Perhaps...but that doesn't matter to the people unable to pay their bills. Our govt. has become far too focused on winning political battles and there seems to be too little care for the impact of large swaths of Americans. Politics is far outweighing governing.

@SenFettermanPA Why are you pretending that Democrats haven't proposed a clean funding bill for TSA, that Republicans have rejected? If you actually care about this, stop acting like Republicans aren't playing politics with the issue.

This morning at PIT, so many TSA employees expressed their appreciation for standing with them and shared their financial hardship. End this ridiculous DHS shutdown NOW. Pay these hardworking TSA agents and all DHS employees who collectively keep our country more secure.

@MaryBowdenMD In the 2026 Main Residency Match, 38,354 applicants matched to PGY-1 positions. Overall, 44,344 total positions were offered, and the match rate for U.S. MD seniors remained at 93.5%. So, while deeply unfortunate, 1,367 out of 44,344 seems like a very low percentage.

@LaurenUnderwood Okay...but it's March. What's the plan to get to a functioning legislative branch until then? You are a highly effective lawmaker and you know that increasing sectarianism where blue and red simply won't work together is a losing proposition no matter who is in the majority.

House Republicans have spent their time in the majority gutting Medicare and Medicaid, slashing SNAP for hungry families, and cutting taxes for their billionaire donors. Here’s the good news: They can’t escape accountability forever. November is coming.

@SenSchumer So what is the plan? Continue to stalemate and post while the American people, which those who are not being paid qualify as part of, suffer? People are exhausted of the political gamesmanship coming out of gvnt. and that is a legitimate feeling.

ZERO Republican Senators voted to fund TSA. This is the seventh time Republicans have blocked pay for TSA. Seven. Times. They would rather hold TSA hostage to try to force billions more for an unrestrained, out of control ICE. Despicable.
Chuck Schumer@SenSchumer

BREAKING: I’m bringing a motion to the floor to FULLY FUND TSA. Republicans Senators will be forced on the record: they can either vote to fund TSA for good or be fully responsible for its continued shutdown.

@brianschatz For the amount of waste, fraud and abuse, we could also likely do the same. Because we are in fact so wealthy as a nation, we waste a tremendous amount through administrative laxity. Both of these issues are demonstrative of a lack of moral clarity, discipline and responsibility.

For the amount of money the Pentagon is requesting for this insane war we could eliminate hunger in America for a decade. The problem in our country is not a lack of money, it’s a lack of moral clarity.

Hey beautiful you will be missed. So your response below contradicts reporter Megan Flynn’s WaPo article written on May 12th or maybe my comprehension is lacking.

@SmithSteiner At issue with the Council is documents related to agency enhancement requests (Form Bs). Council can get financial info both from the Council budget office and from the Chief Financial Officer. Cash reserve reports are also posted publicly cfo.dc.gov/page/emergency…

Why say this is “thin stuff”? JLG wants to do right by the residents in DC. She has no idea whatsoever of how much money DC has in reserves and how to balance the needs with her desires. Please be mindful - Bowser has refused to provide the Council with ALL documents relating to DC’s budget. Let’s be fair.

I really don’t like Taylor Frankie Paul but that video was such clear evidence of reactive abused and how horrific it can get. This happened 3 years ago, she was arrested & pled guilty. She did therapy + DV/AM classes. Dakota is an abuser who chose to release that to ruin her.
