Trash must be thrown out, or the flies become a nuisance. I think this one is a mutated South African variety. Not that there's anything wrong with South Africa, but I heard the diamond mines are a bit sketchy.

One of these women, I admire and respect, and the other one is in the Epstein files.

Today, on Indigenous People's Day, Americans can contemplate the importance of all humankind on their continent, and can offer respect and honor, and vow never to repeat our ancestor's mistakes. So, what is being done for folks in other regions? Have some not yet learned that lesson? For shame!

Trump treats his supporters like they’re idiots and they keep proving him right.

We miss hearing Steph and the gang on local Asheville radio waves. Those were the days! We still love you and will find a way to tune in. Hope you finally fixed your box.

This is why I've never joined the Demoratic Party since I left the Repubs. First, Kamala disappears after her loss to Trump, leaving a void of leadership. Then Schumer and Jeffries play the silence game, though every once in a while one of them offers a non-solution to events, then disappears again.

Yeah, Hayley Williams, whom I don't know because I'm an old dude, but I'm suddenly a fan, as I share the sentiment, but it means much more coming from you! I love this upcoming generation. They boss!

For the life of me, I can't understand how Trump's approval rating could be so high. It's a damning indictment on the American people.

Ban large American vehicles in Europe. I see the damage they do to the roads in America every day, because our roads are constantly in construction. They just repoured cement on a bridge I cross daily, again, and are constantly pouring new blacktop on a neverending, repetitive cycle. Unsustainable!

This man appears to be of Italian descent. The fuel costs bother him, but he seems OK with everything else. Let's go back 100 or 150 years , when Italians were told to go home where they belong, as well as the Irish and French. I'll guarantee you this man's grandparents wouldn't approve of ICE.

The odd thing about this map is that it reminds me of the Epstein Files & how the Trump DOJ is hiding damning proof implicating Donald Trump and many of his closest allies of hideous crimes. Oh, and it sucks not having Healthcare or a doctor, and living among racists and idiots stinks. Trump sucks!

Many Americans stand with the Canadians and against the insane pedophile grifter authoritarian wannabe Donald Trump - well over half of the country, but we still gotta deal with 30% who are twisted MAGAs and their fully corrupted government. Let this be a warning to others (ahem, Germany).

I don't need any of these things. The Ellison family thinks they are valuable, but they're worthless without the people who watch them, and I won't be one of them. It's my choice, and they can't force that on me.

The RUSSIA, RUSSIA, RUSSIA HOAX is really weighing on Trump since his CIA Director just took a military CARGO plane to Moscow, carrying an unknown load. What was in the plane, Krasnov?

I'm so embarrassed for my country. We should be doing much more to assist Ukraine. I tell this to my representative and senators, and they respond with lip service but never back it up with substantial action. They are cowards bowing to Trump, who worships Putin. It's a tragedy. Slava Ukraini!

I have a history within the American church, and this example of self-aggrandizing wishfulness is standard fare. I seriously doubt that an almighty being is proud of a hateful POS, or engaged in their shittiness in any way, shape, or form. What I see when I look at Mel Gibson is a primal beast.

In my neck of the woods in Western North Carolina, there are NO restrictions for large vehicles. I regularly have semi-trucks trying to navigate narrow, winding country roads, and we battle armies of dump trucks daily. The standard ratio is 1 commuter car per 3 large commercial/industrial vehicles.
