While I'm enjoying the humiliation justifiably being heaped on Senator Eric Schmitt, I don't don't think enough mockery is being directed at his accomplice, Senator Kennedy, the Cornpone Clown, with this stupidly victorious expression as he smugly holds up the ridiculous "evidence."

Golden-hour fields — light that pauses the to-do list. Farming systems start with attention: soil underfoot, sky overhead, crop in between.

Trump starts a war with Iran, gas prices surge, and MAGAts blame Obama. He’s been out of office nearly a decade, but apparently still controls the pumps. The party of personal responsibility has one policy: take the credit, outsource the blame. What a farce. www.politicususa.com/p/republican...

Shocker. The Trump admin’s story doesn’t match reality. not even close. Trump on Mesabi Metallics’ proposed $15 BILLION steel plant in Lee County, Iowa: “They’ve already started building.” REALITY: No permits, disclosed site, or major land purchase. Financial incentives still unresolved.

The concentration of wealth in the hands of a few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy. When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, regular people don't have a voice. The result? The demagoguery and corruption we're seeing now.
