Ossoff: "She got her new insurance quote & it's $700 more per month than what she's paying now. She's diabetic. She had surgery a few months ago for something else. She told me she cried again bc she realized she's gonna have to cancel her insurance. She believes she might die bc of a policy choice"

Our daughter's holiday lighting company installed the lights on the 80-foot tall Blue Spruce in Fickle Park in Berthoud. It really is beautiful. #holidayLights #BlueSpruce #Colorado #BerthoudColorado

Remember that war between Thailand & Cambodia Trump ended? It's on again.
And that war between the Democratic Republic of Congo & Rwanda he stopped? On again.
Between Pakistan & Afghanistan? On again.
Ukraine & Russia? Not stopped in Trump's 323 days in office.
Israel and Gaza? Still fighting.

For the first time, the Kennedy Center Awards were presented in the tiny Oval Office instead of the Kennedy Center For Performing Arts. Donald used his now-vulgar Oval Office for the ceremony to avoid the embarrassment of TV audiences seeing an almost empty theater.

contrarian.substack.com/p/the-second... As horrifying the second strike may be, Paul correctly identified a more frightful issue: Trump’s concocted “drug war” is just a pretext to bootstrap extrajudicial killings into grounds for a regime-change war of the very type Trump vowed never to start

Extrajudicial killings may lead to another regime-change war

Our daughter and her husband's float in the Berthoud Parade of Lights 12-6-26. Several years ago she bought a francise to hang holiday lights. They have done quite well with that venture, one of many they own. Side note: our daughter organized the parade. #Parade #HolidayLights #BerthoudColorado

Here's a better headline for Axios: "How Trump has normalized racism and racist slurs." Why can't some journalists just call a thing what it is? https://loom.ly/hiKWr58

Terrorist were coming to the U.S.
We killed ‘em.
OK, boat wasn’t coming here.
There was no 2nd strike.
OK, there was. But we didn’t know.
Didn’t see or order it.
That guy did.
Fog of war.
Self-defense.
Just wanted to sink the boat.
JK. We meant to kill ‘em.
And we’d do it again.

Front view of our daughter's home. It looks beautiful, but it helps that they own a Christmas light hanging business in Berthoud. They also put lights on the businesses in town. #HolidayLights #BerthoudColorado
