I remember reading several of these and thinking, "Stop! No! What are you doing?" I felt and feel so bad for the writers who felt forced to do this and shared things they would have preferred not to.

At first, probably. Now I am inured to them.

There are way too many of them in the general area where I live. It's weird, because it's a liberal area, but the triggering the libs part is exactly it. Every time I see one, I think or say "loser".

TODAY is the first day of open enrollment in Idaho. That means people need to start choosing their health care plans RIGHT NOW.

One Idahoan who's paying $367/month will be paying a WHOPPING $2,232/month without the ACA tax credits.

We have to save the ACA tax credits.

Those things are so creepy. One was deployed outside of a large renovation site near where I worked once and boy does it get its point across! Very effective protest!

Am I correct in assuming the jurors can't take notes?

This is the same Speaker who has repeatedly refused to put up the congressionally-mandated plaque honoring the Capitol Police members who were viciously assaulted by MAGA goons on January 6th.

We've seen your deeds, you oily liar.

Good luck to this jury. Seriously. I can barely follow what the defense lawyer is saying.

Tourism was so much better when all cameras were film cameras and you had to decide what was worth using one of your limited number of photos on. Yes some of your pics sucked, but you actually looked at things and remembered them, b/c your memories weren't in your camera reel that you never look at!

Mike Johnson: "They berated a Capitol police officer, screamed at him. He was merely standing his post. It shows, again, their disdain for law enforcement, the Democrats, screaming, assaulting officers."
