I do not think they know what "depraved" means.

Last night, President Trump said, "You have to trust your country, because if there can be no trust there can be no greatness, and that's very simple. No trust, no greatness." He lied 6 times in the first 60 seconds of his speech. And countless times after. We're supposed to trust him?

This guy either has figured out a way to make a living by running for political office (and losing), or he needs to get a new hobby. Also... "experienced leadership" ... is there even one example of this? I think his experience begins and ends with being student body president in high school.

I sent a package to Fairbanks via UPS last week and it's fascinating to track it on the UPS website. It has gone from Vancouver to Medford, Oregon, to Sacramento and now to Visalia, California. They've had the package for almost a week now. Does UPS not know where Alaska is?

Donald Trump said no one loves women as much as he does. The Education Department just told its employee union that an executive order requires it to change policies that protect pregnant workers from discrimination in promotions.

It's exactly why people don't appreciate public health. It over reacts and causes nothing to happen. Since nothing happened, people just think public health officials over reacted.
