I was a ham operator as a teen back in the days when Radio Moscow was blasting their vile propaganda right in the middle of the 40-meter amateur band. Learned to recognize propaganda when I hear it. Went on to serve Uncle Sam for 28 years. No DMs

Where to? Even the Devil doesn't want him; he'd stage a coup there to rule over Hell.

Chip Roy needs a few years of remedial Sunday School to improve his knowledge of the lessons Jesus taught.

Kudos to the Atlanta Police! The FBI in its present state isn't as effective these days at finding and intercepting bad guys like that one.

That's why we all need to register as Republicans and vote in the primary elections against the candidates he has endorsed. That way it may be easier to reform the Republican Party than to get Democrats off their duffs and out to the polls on Election Day.

Education at that level shouldn't be difficult, though some teachers make it unnecessarily hard. Everyone should be able to get through Community College. Help should be readily available and free.

The article says he attended Community College for five semesters. That's odd because most students earn an AA degree in just four. He must have had a hard time with some coursework or some bad teachers who soured him. Might've been a happier outcome had he gotten help when he needed it. 1/2

We've lived a lot of OK years without the AI and cryptocurrency those data centers would serve. Really scary is their potential to record everything everyone does and track every penny we earn and spend. They even make it possible to color money like the gov't does to control how it may be spent.

Another No Kings protest was just six miles away in Lake Mary, the very core of Seminole's GOP depravity. It was by bad-boy Cory Mills' office, a stone's throw from where 47 attended a fund-raiser at a wealthy donor's home and also near where Matt Gaetz supposedly attended a scandalous sex party.

Depends greatly on the time and place and denomination. They're just people, and many of them not too awfully bright.

I don't care if you're red blue purple green or orange...this is something we the people – not the politicians –
must remember because if political parties can separate us this easily we'll all be pawns and no one will be exempt when the hammer comes down.

Access works both ways. Concentrate on writing stories that make all the Pentagon's political appointees look stupid. Kill stories that make them look good. They'll soon wish they had not cut off their access to you.

Montanans elected wealthy carpetbagger Tim Sheehy instead of long-serving local farmer Jon Tester in 2024. Sounds like they're getting what they voted for.

for 35 years i was told money had different ‘colors’, and the colors of money could only be used in certain ways ‘cuz that’s how congress appropriated it. this is deeply engrained in federal culture.

as per his usual, Trump takes his liberties.

This is why I say the Republicans are trying to run the government the way they run their shady businesses. In business, money has no appropriation headings and no expiration dates. They don't acknowledge the need for such discipline and don't care. They're both incompetent and untrainable.

Birds of a feather. Argentina is where the Nazis sought refuge after Germany was defeated in WW2. Maybe they're greasing the skids for American Nazis to go there too. www.youtube.com/watch?v=QiRo...

They pass the duck test for military. In a sane world, posse comitatus would apply.
