@helenback1.bsky.socialI saw someone open the door of their car and empty all their shit onto our road as I was driving home. It’s a very narrow one-way road, so I stopped in the middle and refused to move until she’d cleared it up. She was furious, but couldn’t get out, so had to do it. I should have got a medal.
Show PostBarack Obama just delivered a blistering rebuke of Trump's actions against Ilhan Omar. This is worth reading in full.
