Went to a funeral yesterday. At the reception, we ran out of food. The family of the deceased didn't really get anything to eat, as they arrived later. My husband, completely unprompted, left the reception, picked up a ton of food, and brought it back. It was nice to know the family would get to eat

Susan Collins says she delivers for Maine, but we all know the truth. Her legacy is corruption and self-service.

Every single one of these people view their government appointments as an opportunity to promote themselves and make money grifting while we pay them to do it.

That's how this big government bureaucracy is going to keep millions of eligible voters from voting, nearly all because they have foreign or black sounding names. By the time they can prove they are citizens the election will be over. This is all very well planned, no accidents in US politics.

DILLEY DETENTION CENTER NUMBER 2 Call it a “staging facility” all you want. The contract says detention. There’s playground equipment behind the fence. And Dilley has already held children far beyond the roughly 20-day Flores limit. Now they’re building “Dilley 2.” We know what this is!

New Yorkers, a storm is arriving today. Don't travel if you don't have to. Never drive or walk through floodwater. Call 911 if you are in danger, and report nonemergency issues to 311. Look out for one another and stay safe.

$30,000 in Cash? 🤑💰 When Randy Waldrum was working with the Trinidad and Tobago U17s, Trinidad President and FIFA Executive Jack Warner paid him $30,000 in cash on the final day he was there. 👀😳 Warner told Waldrum that if he was stopped at immigration, the money did not come from me.

I’m sorry, but what exactly is the purpose of the UN if Netanyahu can address the General Assembly while an ICC arrest warrant remains outstanding against him? The whole thing starts to look like a farce.

Dear Texans: Here's an election pro tip. If a candidate won't debate You don't vote for them. Period. It's that simple. By not debating they're saying you're concerns are not a priority. Vote for those who will debate. They have plans and value your concerns. Vote Talarico! Vote Hinojosa!

If a politician takes money from weapons manufacturers, don't be surprised when they back weapons contracts. If a politician takes money from Big Pharma, don't be surprised when they try to stop guaranteed healthcare. That's why I don't take ANY corporate money. None.
