Folks! If you're using a mail-in ballot, TRACK ITS RECEIPT. Someone just told me her ballot was never received. She's being sent a new ballot. DOUBLE CHECK YOUR ON-SITE BALLOT WHEN YOU VOTE CHECK THAT MAIL-IN BALLOTS HAVE BEEN RECEIVED Sad to say--but double-check EVERYTHING in this election.

Trump will delay attacking Iran until after the midterms. The report on the killing of 120 school children in Iran is completed but will also not be released until after the midterms. This is as bad as Nixon in the 1972 election. Pay attention, Rubes.

And the underlying problem is that Republikans whacked SNAP, so more people are desperate for food.

MacFarlane: The Second Harvest Food Bank of North Central Ohio has got the same issue. Last year, they paid $50,000 for diesel to transport their food. Now, they’re paying $150,000 for the diesel to transport their food.

Q: We've been asking why Bill Pulte is qualified to be DNI. You're a heart surgeon? Dr. Oz: Yes. Q: Would you recommend a patient go see someone who isn't? Dr. Oz: *silence*

My annual rant about Memorial Day: If you want to offer wishes for *this* weekend, please say “Have a Good Memorial Day.” It’s a remembrance of those who died in American Wars— an observance, not a celebration. “Happy” doesn’t really fit the occasion.

It’s a sunny 97 degrees Farenheit at my home about 15 miles north of of the Coast Guard Academy where Trump is today’s graduation speaker. TV just showed him walking in -he seems rather low energy and frankly, doesn’t look well. It’s going to be hard on in him to go the distance.

New photos from the USS Abraham Lincoln show service members receiving minimal food portions as reports grow that some troops have lost significant weight and aren’t receiving care packages—while the Pentagon denies any shortages. (Newsweek)

We have now officially set a record for most snow in three seasons. The two inches in my driveway this morning plus 8 inches Sunday and a couple inches just before Christmas is more than we had all of last winter *or* the year before.

As of 12/24/25, USPS changed policy on when they postmark mail. Mail dropped off is no longer guaranteed a same-day postmark. Tax returns & other time-sensitive items are now stamped when they reach a regional processing center, which may be days later. Plan deadlines accordingly to avoid penalties.

It’s just after 11 a.m. and the outside temperature in my Southeastern Connecticut town is already at 96 degrees. Forecast is 102 or so this afternoon. I’ll be the one on the sofa, reading mysteries for the rest of the day.

Hey folks – my phone system is having some tech difficulties and hanging up on callers that opt to leave voicemails. Your calls are important to me, so we're working hard to get it up again, but to be clear, I’m a NO on the CR, so if that’s why you’re calling, I hear ya!

Military friends, remember you took an oath to the Consitution, not the President. Also, know the difference between a lawful and unlawful order. You do not have to obey and unlawful order. If you are forced to call the GI Hotline at 1-877-447-4487

The processing fee for a passport is $130 but there can be other costs and you have to get documents establishing your citizenship like a birth certificate and a photograph. This is the new pull tax if the SAVE act passes.

Have you heard about the SAVE Act? It's the newest effort at voter suppression by the House GOP & it's important for all of us. If you're a married woman or someone who doesn't have their birth certificate/passport handy, you're especially going to want to see this. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...
