With all due respect to Bill Murray-Grampa Golf’s nonsensical & sometimes incoherent riffing on and on at the microphone reminds me of Bill Murray’s SNL lounge singer. 🤪

The US cannot possibly continue participating in negotiations between Ukraine and Russia. It is absurd to allow a hostile state aligned with Russia, acting in bad faith, to play a role in the peace process.

Correct. Also the people of Michigan-not you-will choose their senator.

Yup. Even though I’m in Michigan with no reason absentee voting, I will return my ballot to the drop box at City Hall instead of mailing it-even though it comes with a postage paid envelope-because I’m not sure I trust the upper management of USPS to deliver my ballot.

Will ICE be paying for this man’s medical costs? Perhaps he is uninsured or underinsured-or if insured , his insurance shouldn’t have to pay for this expense. Will ICE also be compensating him for any missed income because he can’t work? Perhaps a roofer, agricultural worker, road worker?

Do you think family dinners with the in-laws are awkward with his constant hating on immigrants shtick? Or is this just political theater for the low information cult fans so they can feel justified to hate brown people? Either way, he’s doing his wife, her parents & his biracial kids no favors.

Real easy for someone who made himself wealthy through crime, corruption and grifting to suggest that working class people, the poors, the elderly and the vulnerable should suck it up because he wants to cut their sources of income. Their greed for power, privilege & money is insatiable & unholy.

So he’s donating that parcel to the federal government for a sanctuary? Or is he (and his perpetually grifting family) going to still own it and the government will have to pay rent or a fee to use it? 🤔 Either way I think we know who wants his name on it in big, garish gold letters.

It’s great for Grampa Golf to shine the brightest spotlight onto Rotten Russ-who very few people have heard of-because he likes to lurk in the shadows to do his evil. Now many people can ask, “who is this Russ guy?” And many reporters can pursue him relentlessly 24/7. This could be interesting. 😳

The repeatedly repeated repetition of certain words-in this case a mispronounced word-is his conman speak trying to cinch a deal.🥴 Perhaps not his cult fans, but most of us know people who are vegetarians & vegans-it’s just not a big deal. Does he really live in a bubble so insulated from reality?

The press will do stories on Republican sex creeps, but it will never, ever point out -- much less make an ongoing narrative out of -- the fact that the GOP has been *ridden* with sex creeps for decades. You have to be blind not to see the pattern.

Wilber was finally able to undergo surgery on Thursday—11 days after he was shot. “When ICE can shoot a man in the back and then barely give him any medical treatment and let him suffer, there’s a reason for that because we have gotten to a point where we see people as less than human.”

When she says “right team,” I think she means the team that gives her closer proximity to power, influence, privilege & money-which will be more likely if her husband/ex-husband/father of her children is a U.S. Senator instead of just a washed up, corrupt politician with mistresses to support.

The most phony and performative people who claim to be “righteous Christians” -believe that they deserve all the power & control, that they have the right to judge everyone else, & that if they happen upon lots of privilege & money 😉-it’s because they’re deserving and God wants them to have it all.
