I would have a difficult time trying to decide which parental relationship was more complicated, the one with my Mother or the one with my Father.

As it's Father's Day, I'll write a bit about him.

“The problem is that Americans thought it was ok to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of The United States and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things.

Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of The United States and if we don’t wake up we may not have a United States.”

Zionism is organized crime and these secular greedy bastards would delete our pages and erase anything we ever said if they could get away with it. Their only play is to gaslight everyone while rewriting history and anytime shit goes sour, they'll just scapegoat a bunch of innocent Jewish Americans.

The opening number is epic and Melba Moore stopped the show at the end of the first act. The cast album may be hard to find. I can send you mine!

I can never figure out if someone like her believes what they’re saying. If they do, they’re incredibly stupid. If they don’t, they’re incredibly evil.
It’ll be fascinating to see how she reacts when the Supreme Court nullifies her marriage.

I cancelled my subscription to the NYTimes so long ago I’ve forgotten why. Most of us can only protest with our dollars; the NYTimes won’t care what I write about them.
I’d love for them to return to their former journalistic integrity. So keep writing until they do.
