Observations and comments, mostly political. Always considered myself centrist: social liberal and fiscal conservative. But it seems the country shifts to the right and I don't.

In a normal world, the 26 Republicans up for election in our target districts would condemn Trump for his treasonous comments last night. But they won’t.

The man next to DT Jr. is Bolivian MAGA right winger and drug trafficker Fernando Cerimedo. He tried to murder his girlfriend, having her shot 3 times. She survived and talked. Trump then intervened to nullify the investigation of him by aiding in the arrest of the PROSECUTOR, and revoking his visa.

We should have bailed out General Motors. Too many employees and subcontractors made their living from the business. But as the shareholders with controlling interest, we should have removed the officers and BOD, and hired replacements who can run a business.

I don't take tips on virtue from a man who used a pic of his stillborn child for a GoFundMe campaign for his children's burial garden named "Lincoln’s Place" when the project was never built, and Ogles repeatedly refused to disclose what happened to the tens of thousands of dollars donated.

Perhaps you should work on reading comprehension. It's a question. Sure, Catholic priests shouldn't rape boys. But why do Muslim women cover themselves to extreme (and must be escorted by male relatives)? So the men will behave themselves.

I found this on Facebook in a private group. I thought it was funny. So I shared with my friends (very briefly). Facebook informed me that it goes against standards for promoting suicide and self-harm. I'm promoting no such thing; I just thought it was funny. Now I'll find what Bluesky thinks.
