Does he know anything?

Major networks cover Trump and only Trump and even then it is Trump friendly news.

They should get what they voted for and forced on the rest of us.

We loved our few days in Chicago. It was truly a beautiful city and wish we had planned to stay longer. We never felt unsafe while we were there.

Chicago, what a beautiful city.

We were there last summer for the air show. It was such a beautiful city. We also wished we had planned a longer trip.

Thank you. It was tongue in cheek. I have five granddaughters. There is no way I could support a pedophile, rapist, pos who thinks that women and little girls only value is to look beautiful and pleasure men.

We didn't feel unsafe when we visited either.

We visited last summer. It was a beautiful city. We wished that we had planned to stay longer. Would definitely come back.

I love Portland also. We drove out west last year and spent time in Portland and then stopped in Chicago for several days. Both cities were quite beautiful.

Nine years in a row, Chicago’s been named the best city to visit — apparently tourists just love dodging bullets between deep-dish pizza stops.

Attacking cities in your own country with troops, blowing up possible fishing boats without due process, and punishing countries with tariffs if they don't bend to your will—no idea why he didn't win the Nobel Peace Prize. 🤔🤣

I agree 💯

Yea, this was my first time and I screwed it up. I actually had five.

That's what I do also.

Well, he doesn't have to worry about any of the MAGA terrorists knowing what plenary means so he is safe there.

Sailing Effie @sailingeffie.bsky.social · 6d

I agree 100%. It is not politics. It is humanity.

Thank you! I almost spit out my drink laughing so hard.

On a happy note—Full moon reflection on the Mohawk River. I just love the moon. It always makes me feel spiritual.

(4 of 5) I’m not an influencer. I’m simply me. I won’t hate strangers because someone in power says I should, and I won’t apologize for caring about people. This is who I am—always will be.

(3 of 5) And I can’t sit silently while it happens.

Abuse is abuse. It doesn’t stop being wrong just because it’s done by the government, the rich, or the powerful. My posts reflect my values and my refusal to look away. I won’t stay quiet just to avoid offending someone who follows me.
