I will miss my pinned post on Twitter. Best boy in the entire world. Cool Hand Luke Smith. We will see each other again one day.

A photo in memory of Cool Hand Luke Smith, my Golden Retriever, who died in August of 2019. He took a piece of my heart with him. One day we will be reunited.

82nd Airborne is not enough. At this rate, tactical nuclear weapons may be our only hope.

The Trump Administration’s entire Latin American foreign policy consists of blowing up ships in international waters, giving $40 billion in cash to Argentina, and now flying B-2 bombers near Venezuelan air space. Oh, don’t forget about taking Petro’s visa when he said something mean (and dumb).

He gives $20 Billion of OUR dollars to bailout Argentina without consulting Congress or the American people. Does that seem like the actions of a KING to you?

Join us & let him know just what you think about that this Saturday, 10/18

🤣 Like the Trumps are leading everyone back to church. It's more like they are leading our nation straight to Hell.

George Takei @georgetakei.bsky.social · 21h

God doesn’t need any “saving” by the like of you, Eric.

Tweet by Aaron Rupar showing a quote from Eric Trump on “The Benny Show.” Eric Trump says: “We’re saving Christianity. We’ve saving God. We’ve saving the family unit. We’re saving this nation... You no longer have Colin Kaepernick kneeling for the national anthem. You no longer have Budweiser going woke as hell... We have a return to people going to church.” Below is a screenshot from the show with Benny Johnson and Eric Trump speaking side by side.

I agree 100% with this.

Lynn Teague @lynnteague.bsky.social · 1d

I continue to see media comments that Chief Justice Roberts is afraid to buck the Trump administration. Instead, the evidence is that Roberts is on board with the whole plan for an authoritarian executive shored up by extreme right wing evangelical and Opus Dei-style fundamentalism.

Those places are on our list! Is it lovely? Have a wonderful time. We noticed when we went to Italy right before the election they were so concerned about Trump and not in a good way. They had hope the Americans would do the right thing, but alas.

South Carolinians: Did you see the announcement that Google is investing billions in SC? Well, your General Assembly refused to protect you from skyrocketing utility bills to subsidize this and other super wealthy corporations. This must change before residential & small business users are bankrupt.

If you care to see a list of racist and bigoted things Medal of Freedom Charlie Kirk said:

Charlie Kirk in his own words: ‘prowling Blacks’ and ‘the great replacement strategy’

The far-right commentator didn’t pull his punches when discussing his bigoted views on current events

Q: Politico reported on a group chat of young Republicans. Does this just reflect some bad apples?

HOCHUL: Some bad apples? These are the future of the GOP. This is so vile it's hard to find the words to put into context ... there's gotta be consequences ... this bullshit has to stop.

I don’t even think if Trump’s cult found out he was all through the Epstein files as a rapist of underage girls that they would turn on him. They’re that crazy.

Oh great. Arrow is not obsessed with Abby the way Logan was as a young dog. They are curled up behind me right now as I’m typing.

I think what has happened is Logan and Arrow play so much with each other, Abby now has peace. :)

POLITICO: “.. They referred to Black people as monkeys and ‘the watermelon people’ and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers. They talked about raping their enemies .. and lauded Republicans who they believed support slavery.

Trump posthumously awards Charlie Kirk the Presidential Medal of Freedom

President granted the US’s highest civilian award to the far-right commentator who was assassinated in September Donald Trump posthumously awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the highest civilian award in the United States, to the assassinated far-right commentator Charlie Kirk at the White House on Tuesday. Kirk, who was shot at an event at Utah Valley University in September, was among the most significant rightwing activists in the modern political era, galvanizing a younger generation of conservatives to engage in politics and support Trump’s candidacy ahead of the 2024 election.

I just came in from training the dogs and Trump is on the news. He is always the biggest asshole. I heard him yelling at a reporter about ABC News being fake & what they did to the VP on George Stephanopouos. Is G.S. supposed to just sit there and agree with the VP as he is lying his head off?!!
