Baker, love my dogs, my cats, the Braves and Auburn. Posts might be all over the place, depending on the day.
A modern government and economy can’t function if it’s run by people who are hired because they know someone instead of competent career employees who are there to carry out functions established by Congress, not a president. These people are loony.
Who would ever voluntarily choose to live under the demented monarchical plutocracy our Supreme Court is creating for Trump? How is this a remotely rational way to structure a government?

Kudlow is just lying to his viewers: "Unemployment is at rock bottom. These are real facts. I'm not making this stuff up. Unemployment claims are as low as they're ever going to get."

One of my favorite songs.
“California Dreamin’” turns 60 today.
“We were staying in New York,” said Michelle Phillips, “and it was a terribly cold winter. John had been complaining that he missed the warmth of California, and one night he woke me up and said, ‘I’ve just written this song, and you have to help me with it.’”

What would the world have been like if he had lived?
He stood up for others, he fought for peace and humanity, he had a vision...
Forever be missed , RIP John Lennon #johnlennon

What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.”
Funny how that works.

Mockler: It's honestly humiliating that other countries are treating our president like a child, like a baby. It's like if I created a peace prize and I gave it to myself. I'm like, I'm just going to keep this medal on all night. Our president is an actual child

Trump on pardoning the former president of Honduras: "That was a Biden horrible witch hunt. A lot of people in Honduras asked me to do that & I did it. I feel very good about it. If you have some drug dealers in your country and you're the president, you don't necessarily put the president in jail"

"The Donald Trump administration has changed which holidays qualify for free entrance to national parks, removing two holidays celebrating Black people and adding the president’s birthday."
National parks change prioritizes Trump birthday over days honoring Black people
Free entrance days at national parks no longer include MLK Day and Juneteenth.
