Correct. And they will, suddenly, remember that the $40 trillion national debt needs to be immediately dealt with.

Trump is and always was an opportunistic coward. It isn't really talked about in it's full context, but not only did he and his dad procure his 5 deferments to avoid military service in Vietnam by renting a crooked podiatrist, he then--once safe from being sent to war and real danger--came out and 1

Imagine the immense sense of entitlement and delusional self importance necessary to think you and only you have the power to rename a huge body of water that is part of the lives of millions of people in two countries, and has carried Native root of that name for tens of thousands of years. 1

He really is just stupid ya know. The money and the racism and a scripted 'reality show' character just let him continually fail upward over and over and over again. Shame on all of us. 🤦‍♂️

The very same Senators who screamed bloody murder when Jack Smith accessed their phone call logs (not the content of the calls) and text messages on January 6 are now just fine with scraping servers for private communications, compiling Dr. Fauci's diary entries and making them public. WTF ??

All of this *waves arms furiously* absolutely all of it is the 'prosperity gospel' model. It's everywhere today. Politics and science both. "Send your money in now and you'll be rich down the road." Everyone in charge and most of the oligarchs are just Benny Hinns and Creflo Dollars with power. 🤦‍♂️

I left for this and other reasons. I was brigaded on Twitter; they tried to get me fired, established new accounts that claimed I was a 'pedo.' None of the harassment was deemed a violation of their terms of service. It was not 'more fun.' At all.

They're stealing billions of your money to pay off violent right-wing psychos while doing everything in their power to spike gas up to $5 a gallon, make groceries into a luxury and hand the country over to the oligarchs who want to permanently replace you.

Coach here is historically ignorant when speaking of the racist restrictions on immigration in the 1920s. He's probably unaware of the KKK's influence during the time. Well, I know, he's ignorant about a much wider array of subjects. I know.

Agreed. That's my point. It's not a 'benign' condition. We voters have a duty to choose to include competence and ability to do the job as factors in our decision-making. I oppose her on numerous grounds, and I also wouldn't be willing to gamble on her continued good health for 6 more years.

I have essential tremor. For years now, and it's progressive. Not a single medical professional in all those years ever used the word 'benign' when talking to me about essential tremor. None.

Happy Mothers Day mom. ❤️🙏 She is gone now, but my brother and I lived great and productive lives thanks to her. She packed up a suitcase and grabbed her two boys--10 and 8 yo--and left our abusive, alcoholic father in 1964. It was not common then, and we were too young to grasp the courage it took.

To my mind, if there's useful political juice to be squeezed from what remains of ye olde liberal tradition, it's the ideal of fundamental human equality which, I'd venture to say, is still an ideal many people believe in. It's also precisely the ideal that our post-liberal oligarchs most hate.

Can someone please talk me off this particular ledge that I can't process? If the attacker at the Correspondent's Dinner had been a suicide bomber with an explosive device on his back, the order of succession would have fallen all the way down to . . . Chuck Grassley? 92-year-old Chuck Grassley?

You'll never believe what this speaker--now cancelled thanks to "free speech" warriors like TPUSA & Sen. Mike Lee--posted about Charlie Kirk. She said she was "gutted" by his murder. She described it as "horrific" and said it "should have never happened." And then she went on to post Kirk's words.

Utah Valley University was thrilled that Sharon McMahon, a best-selling author, would speak at its graduation. And then her old posts resurfaced.
