A lot of assumptions have been made about the shooting of the two National Guardsmen, based on pure conjecture, and policies implemented on that conjecture. I urge that we wait to find out what really happened, then implement policy based on reality.

I am reminded of those romance movies where the heroine finally dumps her asshole boyfriend. I hope Canada finds her true love; she deserves it.

She doesn’t even try to hide that she’s a spokesperson for Putin serving in the US Congress. Post after post, day after day, echoing Russian propaganda. Truly sad that people in Pinellas County have chosen this as their representation.

My daughter-in-law is a nurse practitioner. Since the majority of nurses are women, of course, they are not professional.

The Bill to Release the Epstein files is on its way to the White House. Donald Trump has said he'll sign it, and you can count on him to do so. After all, he is a man of impeccable integrity who would never go back on his word.

President Trump is owin favor of releasing the Epstein files. The bill forces DOJ to release the files. If he is now in favor, why doesn’t he just order Pam Bondi to release them. Why wait for the bill to move through Congress.

This is cool. COURIER has created a searchable database with all 20,000 of the files just released from Epstein’s estate.

Trump's name appears in them more than anyone else, in 1,628 documents.

The emails released clearly show President Trump knew about the sex trafficking, but do not conclusively show that he was involved in it.

The question is, if you know of sex trafficking, but do not report it, can you go to jail? I am not a lawyer, but my belief is that the answer is yes.

I just wrote my congressman the following:

Now that the discharge petition has enough signatures. As I see it, you have two choices:

1. Vote yes for the release, and support justice for the victims
2. Vote no for the release and protect pedophiles.

This should be the simplest vote you ever cast.

On Christmas Day 1977, my mother took a cassette recorder and taped my cousins opening gifts. The tape arrived in early February. I played it in the shop I worked in. Soon, everyone in the shop was gathered around crying. That moment best describes the sacrifices that all Veterans have made.
