In other news,

We're facing another Government Shutdown. Why? Because Republicans, instead of just voting on the budget, have attached the SAVE Act.

They will tell you the SAVE Act is designed to "protect our elections" and "stop illegal immigrants from voting," that's not why or what it does:

It is already illegal for non-citizens to vote. However, the SAVE Act would deny ACTIVE SERVICE MEMBERS from using their Military ID to register to vote. It would also exclude DEPLOYED MILITARY MEMBERS from registering to vote until they come home.

Republicans aren't "protecting out elections," they are making it harder to vote and when they don't win, they already have a plan not to certify the election. We don't have difference in opinions.. there is America, and then there is MAGA.

According to the Drought.gov local page (Carrollton, OH), we have been issued a D4 Level drought. This grade of drought conditions has not been issued since the Dustbowl of the 1930s. However, climate experts do project some relief by the end of this month.

For anyone still on the fence about climate change, I'm sorry you're wrong.

We would like to declare our gratitude to President Joe Biden for the incredible and prosperous work he has done as executive of this government. He has served, to the best of his ability, and has unified the DNC by endorsing his Vice President.

In the U.S. Senate Harris was a pitbull, and neutered hate with dignity and class while remaining unapologetically female. She will be the second woman to be nominated to be a major party’s Presidential Candidate and has the fire to dress down the treasonous felon on the MAGA Extremist Ticket.

No, Kamala is not perfect, no one is, but she is experienced, she is lethally competent to berate fascists, and she’ll do it in heels. Her famous pearl necklaces, representing sisterhood and her amazing story, her iconic high top sneakers, and her vehement passion for equality will care us to safety.

Kamala Harris has the endorsement and support of those of us at 13 Creeks in the name of equity, the dissent of Christian Nationalism, and the knowledge that WOMEN WILL SAVE DEMOCRACY! Full stop.

New statistics on Women’s Pay Equity say Black Women won’t earn equal pay until 2227.

The President has been given immunity by SCOTUS for official duties, 2/3 of the states have ratified the amendment, and 85% of Americans support the Equal Rights Amendment.

The ERA was proposed over 100 years ago — it is time for a president to tell the Archivist to publish the damn amendment!

READ: Justice Sotomayor's dissent:

"When [the president] uses his official powers in any way, under the majority's reasoning, he now will be insulated from criminal prosecution. Orders the Navy's Seal Team 6 to assassinate a political rival? Immune. Organizes a military coup to hold onto power? Immune. Takes a bribe in exchange for a pardon? Immune. Immune, immune, immune. Let the President violate the law, let him exploit the trappings of his office for personal gain, let him use his official power for evil ends. Because if he knew that he may one day face liability for breaking the law, he might not be as bold and fearless as we would like him to be. That is the majority's message today. Even if these nightmare scenarios never play out, and I pray they never do, the damage has been done. The relationship between the President and the people he serves has shifted irrevocably. In every use of official power, the President is now a king above the law."
