This article should be read by everybody who wants to understand how school shootings are created. We have a much deeper gun problem than most people think. studyfinds.org/school-shoot...

The One Thing Every U.S. School Shooter Had In Common
Guns are the leading cause of death for American children and teens, yet a troubling new study from Germany has found that all school shooters had easy access to firearms.

Huh. There goes a strong supporter. I can’t guess if donnie will say he was a secret democrat, stupid, or one of the worst people!

This is entirely VERY possible. And every person who is in the USA should be terrified by this possibility!

I can only imagine the bailout package they are drawing up for themselves. As the saying goes, privatize the profits, and socialize the losses.

There are 33m companies in the USA. Only 21k employe 500 or more. And they only make up 23% of workers. Trump and Elon are ignoring the more than 32m entrepreneurs that can't afford to build a new factory or pay tariffs or absorb cancelled contracts.

My memoir about growing up undocumented in the United States will now be taught in California public schools. I only wish the Department of Education appreciated my story as much as the Golden State.

I’m pretty sure Gertrude doesn’t really care about the migrants as much as she NEEDS her food, medicine, and housing.

Our government has spent $100,000 a person to hold migrants at the Gitmo concentration camp for less than six weeks. That's about $17,000/week for each migrant. They could have stayed at a Ritz-Carlton for that. What's this you say about government waste and efficiency, Elon?

This is where we are. We HAVE made a massive mistake. It is on ALL of us. This is actual folly on the part of our whole country. One book that illustrates this so very well is “The March Of Folly - From Troy To Vietnam” by Barbara W. Tuchman. Highly recommended. www.patheos.com/blogs/public...

Elon Musk is targeting Social Security claiming there is widespread fraud. Donald Trump is targeting Canada claiming there are secret fentanyl labs. It's *all* lies. It's just George W. Bush telling you Iraq has weapons of mass destruction again as a dishonest pretext for doing what he wanted.

I couldn’t even find it in Mirriam-Webster which was designed by Daniel Webster to help separate us from England. He also created our weird tableware use, among other things.

How much is Congress cutting from their $6.5 billion/year budget? Don’t you think congress can operate on say, maybe, $5 Billion? And each congressman has 18 staff, they could operate on say, 14? What about the White House?

This is how Rome completely fell. Coupled with lead pipes, which “some people” seem to desire a return to. Imagine if Rome had an EPA, how much longer it would have lasted.

According to Republicans, honoring Jimmy Carter, who never incited a deadly attack on our Capitol, is less important than honoring Donald Trump, who very much did.
