She changed for the worse, but trying to explain that to voters because you know the media gives Trump a pass, but they will go hard on this when he announces. There's two different standards. Biden is old and fell off his bike, and then there's Trump is great in the 8 second clip we edit.

Didn't you see this coming with the UFC fight on the WH lawn? It's the Roman Coliseum. I'm surprised Hegseth doesn't use Lions instead.

Yeah, when you do the math he once again threw Ukraine under the bus for his BFF Putin. Zelensky is Churchill and we have no FDR. WWII in more than one theatre yet again, yet we have depleted our resources just as Putin and XI hoped Trump would do.

Long story, but I was wronged by someone and also involved an actual criminal enterprise. That person sent me a DM praising me. It took me 3 days to compose the proper response. I did it. I'm not sorry. I'm too old now to put up with this crap. I lived through it, survived and thrived.

So does anyone believe Trump knows anything about the arts, or the spaces they need to perform? That being said after building a $42M Performing Arts Center in a small city there are no more whiny bitches than the Symphony. 🤣

I'm from KY and that's very true. The last one before that was in 1935 in Smithland, KY. Truly his crimes were the kind you would see in a movie, but the crowd was about 1,200. The last indeed such a barbarous carnival atmosphere that no one could abide.

It's about damn time, isn't it? He's winning, but he's going to get all the $$ and attention when we could take more seats in states they believe can't be taken and it frustrates me. People are pissed everywhere. I want to the national party to get their head out of their ass and go hard everywhere.

I grew up next to a prison, which carried out executions. Even took a HS tour of the prison and sat in Electric Chair. As a reporter, I was told I could witness one. A much older, wiser reporter for state's largest newspaper told me not to do it. "That's something you can't get out of your head."

I'm going on record to say public executions were outlawed in 1936 after a hanging in Owensboro, KY in 1936. A carnival like crowd of 20K assembled. It was decided by public sentiment it was wrong, and never to occur again. Only journalists and victim's families allowed after. 1/2

Let's not stop talking about Eric Deters, failed congressional candidate in KY, who blew the whistle on his own corruption because he hadn't seen a payoff on his bribes then had to cancel his famous Freedom Fest in N. KY because no was going to show this summer. Kid Rock, Don Jr. past attendees.

I can't help but think the biggest strike against Gavin Newsome is he married that woman. It does show a lapse in judgment. Of course, I've had a couple of lapses in judgment but I'm not running for President.

As a reporter, I was entitled to witness an execution at the KY State Penitentiary. Back then, it was by electric chair. An older, wiser journalist for the largest newspaper advised me not to attend. "That's something you will never get out of your head."

I can assure you, as a former state lobbyist, for health insurers. They are completely owned by the GOP. Even a good bill about healthcare had to be absolutely killed in committee. This has gone on for decades. It's a racket. I wasn't very good at my job, btw, which is why I quit.
