"Mitch's brain is as strong as it ever was" is NOT the flex he apparently thinks it is.

Is she confusing a pound (four sticks in a box) with a stick? I hate to say it, but he's right; it is about a buck a stick, because a four-stick pound is about $4. Unless you have a coupon, then it's $3 for the pound box. (Here in southwest Ohio.)

I had poll worker training here in Ohio last week. They're expecting 60-65% voter turnout. That's amazing.

Wouldn't that be amazing?? That they're once again trotting out the "SHERROD BROWN WANTS SEX CHANGE OPERATIONS IN SCHOOLS FOR KIDS AND SOCIAL SECURITY FOR 'ILLEGALS'!!!" schtick is just exhausting. I'd ask how many times can they cry "Wolf!" but we're talking out the Ohio GOP, so I won't.

I'm a poll worker. We've had to take renewed training for the upcoming election. Nothing new about processing voters. New training is on evacuating the polling sites, how to collect & protect the equipment, etc. This was not necessary, in this detail, before FOTUS started attacking the process.

He's too stupid to know that FERPA (Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act) exists. It's against the law to release any student's records without the student's permission. And no, POTUS Obama didn't create this law to hide his records; it's been law since 1974.

It won't even pay HALF of one month's Medicare premium. Heck, I just spent $800+ on dental work... for my cat. $100 hardly rises to the level of chump change. Signed, a Medicare recipient

If they know this is happening they need to trot out an actual parent whose child has been transitioned without their knowledge and let them testify to it. Prove it.

It doesn't cover even one month's standard Medicare premium.

If this is happening (it's not), why aren't they trotting out the parents of these kids and having them tell their stories on stage, in front of God and everyone? Has there been even ONE parent who has come forward and confirmed this has happened? Anywhere?

I seem to remember it came down to him and the circus peanut from a particularly large number of wannabes. He had even chosen his running mate (Carly Fiorina) then within a week of doing so, dropped out.

SJO_Adrift @sjoadrift.bsky.social · 03/10/2026
Has he run before? I'm not aware of him being a regular, but that doesn't mean anything (my lack of knowledge).

His mother was a U.S. citizen. If one or both parents are U.S. citizens, any kids have birthright U.S. citizenship no matter where they were born. When he ran for POTUS in 2016 he claimed to have forgotten he had dual citizenship (U.S. & Canada) & made a show of giving up his Canadian citizenship.

SJO_Adrift @sjoadrift.bsky.social · 03/10/2026
HIs mother was a U.S. citizen. He's a natural-born U.S. citizen through her. When one or both parents are U.S. citizens, offspring have birthright citizenship no matter where they are born.

He came close to being the candidate when he ran in 2016. Don't underestimate your fellow Americans.

SJO_Adrift @sjoadrift.bsky.social · 03/10/2026
Exactly! And we came very close to Rafael "Call me 'Ted'" being the GOP candidate when he ran in 2016. He narrowly missed that honor when it instead went to the circus peanut.
010
SJO_Adrift @sjoadrift.bsky.social · 03/10/2026
His mother was a U.S. citizen. U.S.-citizen parent = natural-born U.S.-citizen offspring, no matter where those offspring are born. Which is ironic, because "they" still scream that POTUS Obama wasn't a natural-born citizen. Even if he was born in Kenya (he wasn't), his mother was a U.S. citizen.

Don't forget Jill Stein. She appears every four years from who knows where, like clockwork, to run for POTUS.

SJO_Adrift @sjoadrift.bsky.social · 03/10/2026
Because his mother was a U.S. citizen. When he ran for POTUS in 2016 he claimed to have "forgotten" that he held dual citizenship--U.S. and Canada--and made a big deal of giving up his Canadian citizenship. U.S.-citizen parent = natural born U.S. citizen offspring, wherever that child is born.

He did before, in 2016. The only candidate that did better than him was the circus peanut. And here we are.

I'm about 5'3". Taking first aid/CPR training from a tall fireman. He picked me to demonstrate the Heimlich maneuver... on him. Rethought his choice when I walked up to him, looked down at me & said, "You're going to have trouble with tall men." Looked right back & said, "I should be so lucky." 😜
