Happy New Year, Scott, here's to a better year, especially around November! As soon as I heard about the 'investigation' of childcare centers and who did the viral video that started the whole thing, I had questions. Lots of questions. And I still do. I can't believe anything that comes from this administration, especially claims like this.

For years, I’ve made ‘plans’ rather than resolutions!🎉 Re daycare ‘scandal’: not the first that T***p has claimed, and probably will not be the last🥴

Yes I pick my top 3 goals instead. Works much better than resolutions.

I’m actually surprised trump didn’t do away with all childcare funding already, nationwide.

The trump regime’s corruption crossed a line a long, long time ago. Trump is treasonous, undisguised evil - he wants America weak, stupid, hungry, hopeless, sick and penniless (literally and figuratively), and he wants (and has succeeded) in making us a beacon of grift, lying, shame, violence, injustice, ill will, murder and hypocrisy. Trump has even attacked and destroyed Nature, the only sane respite from this heinousness.

My resolution is to fight, march, protest, write letters/postcards, donate and speak out more than ever!

Agreed, Wis, and Happy New Year to you, Scott and all of us here. My 'plan' is to campaign versus every trumpist running for office in my home state of Wisconsin, and to dispense the facts on this Substack and other truth-telling publications. As for drumpf's vicious attack on Tim Walz and other Minnesotans under fire, this is typical of the 'regime's' use of a 'straw man fallacy' to mischaracterize a problem of abuse of funding in a blue state, blow it out of proportion, and then cast blame where it doesn't belong. Hail to Tim Walz and let 2026 be the year that drumpf and his cronies are cast into infamy. Onward!

Beautifully stated!! Absolutely agree!! We all know by now that any accusation by trump is a confession, any “truth” he posits is diametrically opposite the honest truth, and anything he claims is big and beautiful should be quashed and squashed and exterminated immediately.

I add my voice to yours, Dennis! Resoundingly!: “Hail to Tim Walz and let 2026 be the year that drumpf and his cronies are cast into infamy”

Amen and onward!!

Thank you Scott great first post of 2026! My resolution is to keep on pushing back against the regime.

The attacks on Minnesota child care clearly is bogus and meant to distract us from what this corrupt administration is doing

Happy New Year! Thank you for starting on such a high, positive note! Yes, this is the year we turn the tides! Onward!

I gave up on resolutions years ago. Just trying to do the best I can day by day.

I am so sick of bogus claims made by this regime-I refuse to call them an administration of anything by hate. Will be sooooo glad when they are finally gone.

Meanwhile, enjoy the day, whatever it holds for you. For me, it's the couch!

Cheers.

Hey Carol, I hear you on living up to resolutions! These days I plan something I either like or know I will do anyway. Like getting a haircut or allowing myself a treat!!!! Now these are resolutions, I can keep!!!

Resolution for the New Year- Help Democrats win Congress and, hopefully , the Senate!!!

Trump’s going after childcare centers in Minnesota has Zero to do with fraud ( other than his own fraudulent statements) and everything to do with attacking Tim Walz.

Good first post of 2026, Scott. My first and most important resolution is to remain on this side of the dirt to read your morning posts 😁. Then I promise to be active enough to see the AH and his MAGATS at his side go down. I will share, share. tRump’s bogus attacks on childcare funding is no surprise. As usual, it is based on lies and fakery to be vindictive. Hopefully, more MAGATS will wake up and realize this “thing” for who he is…a selfish wanna be destructive king. Oh yeah…Happy New Year to all of us. ❤️💚💙

Ready for the 2026 blue wave! 🌊

Fact Check:DeSantis is the corrupt governor!

Kudos to the Miami Herald reporting on DeSantis’ Medicaid scandal where he laundered millions away from the neediest in our state.📣 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EM0uTojxLCM

⬆️ "Do you have any resolutions for the new year?"

I borrowed these from a comment posted on Robert Hubbell's Substack and tweaked them:

* Take some action EVERY day to save democracy and build up my resistance 💪🏻

* Be kind and treat everyone as I wish to be treated

⬆️ What are your thoughts on the Trump regime’s bogus attack on childcare funding?

Just another manifestation of Trump's cruelty and total lack of empathy - and another clear indication that GOP as the "party of family values" is nothing but a crock of 💩

I will borrow your resolutions, too Cheryl!!! They are perfect!!!!

And I totally agree about DJT and accomplices being clueless when it comes to family values!!! A real president would have offered support to the families of the children, as well as the Governor and his state!!! If there actually was any truth in the fraud, which is looking like another case of 'immigrants eating pets', if you ask me. :-)
