Donald Trump has revoked the security clearances of Kamala Harris, Hillary Clinton, Liz Cheney, and Jill Biden. Why? Because weak men are afraid of strong women.
RETWEET if you’re proud to stand with these strong women against Donald Trump!

This 500-year-old portrait may seem ordinary, but it's one of the most mysterious in history.
There's so much detail that you can read every musical note on this small page.
But look closer — an unsettling secret is hiding in plain sight... 🧵

Condition survey of Edney Gates and railings at NT Tredegar House. All is not as it seems with the gates. Were restored in the 1980’s. Railings more original.
