I live in OK. Wish this were on the eastern side of MO, but it’s within our range for a quick trip. I’ll be there next year. Thank you so much for this. How wonderful!
- I can’t believe you are drinking at 10:00am. I started just after 8:30. Catch up.
- Rafael has a secret crush on Jimmy Kimmel. He also is terrified of losing access to Disney+ and the Bachelor.
- VIVA MEXICO!!! 🇲🇽 President Sheinbaum will be the leader of the free world. You heard it here first. Write it down. Mexico elected an extremely qualified woman to lead its country and the Estados Unidos elected a 34x felon, BFF of a convicted child trafficker and rapist, twice impeached, insurrection leading, Congestive Heart Failure patient as its president.
QUERETARO HERE WE COME!
- If the RESISTANCE doesn’t start moving with more speed and with more force than the AXIS of Project 2025, this is going to get violent and chaos will ensue, and soon. To quote my dad’s ol’ car salesman buddy as he was navigating his way through a massive pile up happening in front of him at full speed while in a dirt track race, “DAMN BOYS! WHEN 💩 HAPPENS, IT HAPPENS FAST!!! (Rest in Victory Lane 98) Right now, we are in the middle of a massive crash happening all around us, and if we aren’t HAMMER-DOWN and DEFEATING FASCIST BOUND, 💩’s gonna happen fast!
We hope you and your family have a wonderful weekend and are afforded an opportunity to unplug for a bit and enjoy living your lives in peace for a bit 🤗
In addition to having knowledge and experience, you are a darn good writer. Public schools and The Atlantic are on the “right track”. Appreciate you continuing to serve us without a taxpayer paycheck!
Thanks for the information, much appreciate your work. Also check out a magnificent alternative to Baileys, it’s called “Five Farms” small batch from Ireland, Irish whiskey and cream straight from the very farm it’s made. You will never go back.
Let’s all remember that these kinds of extremes from Trump are signs that he’s failing and getting desperate.
We need to encourage House Republicans to lead us towards the changes ahead of schedule. If just three declare as independent, caucusing with Democrats, they will #FlipTheHouseNowAndBeHeroesForever.
With the gravel out of Johnson’s hand, actual oversight can start impeachment investigations against most of Trump‘s #ClownCarCabinet.
And these new independents will become legendary for their courage, allowing the exposure of #RepubloFascism’s sinister roots. They can be leaders in GOP 2.0 and #MakeRepublicansMoralAgain.
“ If democracy had airbags, they’d have deployed by now.” 😆 Thank you for giving us a laugh amidst this madness. Going through “Saturday Morning Covfefe” in my pajamas has become a comforting routine to start my weekend.
I don't think Ted Cruz is against Trump at all he's just worried that if we win this particular court case and we get back in power we might use it against them or against him personally
I guess I am not too far away from Highway 13. I have my own habitat for butterflies and bees. I have about a 1/4 acre of purple coneflower planted just for them. An additional 1/4 acre of zinnias is dual purpose. For the pollenators and also for cut flowers. I enjoy giving flowers to nurses and others who deserve a lift.
I have my own little pollinator paradise in my backyard. Designed for wild beauty and anything that flies to take a respite and feed or drink.
There are butterflies, moths, bees, dragonflies and even hummingbirds. I’ve seen a yellow finch enjoying the sunflowers but he doesn’t feed at the bird feeders which serve all varieties of birds.
When the day is not too hot, I love to sit still in my rocker in the garden to be in the midst of pure beauty.
Raccoons can't get to the bird feeders. I took plastic 3 inch pipe and built two upright posts with a crossbar similar to a goalpost. Too slippery for squirrels and raccoons. But the deer tip them.
I started doing it during the Pandemic, taking them to the two hospitals in Springfield but have gradually changed to where now I take them to the Cox clinic in Branson every two weeks. They really enjoy it when I come.
I also take them to Shetlers, where I shop. They have areas where they package food that goes out on the shelves. Not like a regular store.
I love your work and appreciate that you bring a lot of history of the first Trump administration with you. You are a voice that has truly witnessed what he can do. I just wish more people would listen.
Thank you Olivia and congrats to Mexico. Canada stand with you. Just love your good buddies Stevie and Ringo. They are about the calmest ,coolest boys on this planet . Ted Cruz complaining about Brendan Carr intimidating tactics stifling the media. "dangerous as hell" Has Teddy had a conversion??
Lovin' your commentary and up to date lucidity to events beyond our control. However, if we can just put on our armored knickers we can prevail against the ternary
The butterfly trail 🦋 Thanks for that. We all could use some joy in these stressful times.

Agree. Format is smooth, easily read and full of well-written information. Sense of humor noted with smiles. Keep up the good work, Ms. Olivia!

Thanks Olivia for sharing Saturday morning with me. You are a lifting way to start my day.

Ringo and Stevie look very cute (and I’m sure they’re very therapeutic these days) ❤️
I want to hug them both!

I used to have bird feeders. The deer learned how to use their horns to dump them.
The deer like to eat the flowers and the raccoons eat from the bird feeders. 🤦♀️
Raccoons can't get to the bird feeders. I took plastic 3 inch pipe and built two upright posts with a crossbar similar to a goalpost. Too slippery for squirrels and raccoons. But the deer tip them.
Thank you for thinking of the caregivers. They are so often overlooked and under appreciated.
I started doing it during the Pandemic, taking them to the two hospitals in Springfield but have gradually changed to where now I take them to the Cox clinic in Branson every two weeks. They really enjoy it when I come.
I also take them to Shetlers, where I shop. They have areas where they package food that goes out on the shelves. Not like a regular store.
Thanks so much for this, Olivia. It makes me feel informed, concerned, empowered and still hopeful. Have a wonderful weekend.

Keep talking truth to power🤛🏻💪🏻🥰🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
