TN-9 candidate Rep. @justinjpearson.bsky.social : “Gas is too high. Groceries are too high. Wages are too low… and blaming immigrants is part of the problem. The reality is people are struggling because the billionaire class is greedy.”

If Trump just takes money appropriated by Congress for a specific purpose & seizes it to use it for an entirely different purpose, what is the point of having a Congress or appropriating money for anything? I’m sure the Senate Appropriations Chair Susan Collins must be concerned.

This program while very funny at the expense of the small bigoted world of Archie Bunker brought many of the days hot button issues to a vast audience of those who thought like Archie and were forced to see themselves and a new generation that demanded recognition and acceptance in the world.

I just finished watching all 9 seasons. I was a kid in the 70’s, and thought it was a funny show. Now, I am amazed/appalled that in 2026 that we are still dealing with the exact same issues in this country. Sadly, nothing’s changed! It was a show definitely ahead of its time.

I find the line in the theme song--composed by Norman Lear, "GUYS LIKE US we had it made" illuminating of the whole concept of white male entitlement, when there was discrimination against minorities and women that protected white male lack of merit staggeringly illuminating.

He’s been president for six years, and his healthcare legacy is cutting coverage while offering nothing but a laughable “concept” of a plan. Six years later, the “plan” is still just empty promises dressed up as policy.

There is no moral equivalence between bullies and the bullied, between tyranny and democracy, or between brutality and decency. No individual can be free in a society devoid of justice. There can be no liberty where brutality reigns.

Nah, this doesn’t“stun” me, and it shouldn’t stun you either. This is more evidence that Cornell’s main mission was always to protect Cornell, not the student. As w/many universities. One in 3 women at Cornell say they’ve been sexually assaulted. This institution needs to do better. Much better.

Disgusting. Trump says he feels bad for the seven Cornell students accused of rape, and his biggest worry is that they "won't get a fair shake" with Letitia James as special prosecutor. Not one word for the victim.

It’s not that I think people who commit heinous crimes don’t deserve to die. But I’ll never support the death penalty as long as our justice system is unjust. An unjust system should never have the power to make irreversible decisions, especially when Black people disproportionately pay the price.
