A lot of people get into law enforcement because they are emotionally incontinent and it’s a great opportunity to piss over everyone, violence-and-threatswise

Continuing the long tradition of not seeing any of the dumb shit Trump says

RAJU: Last week you were very critical of Biden's use of the autopen. But Trump admitted on 60 Minutes to not knowing he pardoned a crypto billionaire who pleaded guilty to money laundering. Does that also concern you?

MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know anything about that. I didn't see it. I'm not sure.

Want to see a microcosm of America? Immigrants won the World Series for the Dodgers and immigrants will be unwelcome and hunted at the victory parade.

If ICE agents begins harassing voters on the way to vote on Tuesday, we need local prosecutors to charge the ICE officers with state law crimes. We need to send a message for 2026 that they will be swiftly arrested.

I don't resent poor people who use food stamps to buy another soft drink.

I resent rich people who take away the funds for food stamps to buy another yacht.

Wish I could watch the #MichelleObama, #RobinRoberts #2020 interview tonight, but due to #YoutubeTV and #Disney being greedy and selfish during these difficult economic times and not coming to an agreement...

I CAN'T WATCH IT. 😢

Obama: As for the president, he has been focused on critical issues like paving over the rose garden so folks don't get mud on their shoes and gold plating the Oval Office and building a ballroom… If you can't visit a doctor, don't worry. He will save you a dance.

Just an FYI for #YouTubeTV and #Disney: you stink.

Solve your contract differences post haste. We have enough drama coming from Congress. Don't have time for this bullsheeeet. If you need help, call me.

Like we don't have enough problems... #YouTubeTV & #Disney can't come to terms over a few dollars, what are they, Congress? No #ABC, #GMA, no Halloween Live With Kelly & Mark, no #espn.

Meanwhile, people can't buy groceries or have healthcare.

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

Just leaving this here on why senior citizens tend to get MRIs...

Early detection of neurological diseases: MRI can detect subtle structural changes in the brain that are associated with conditions like Alzheimer's disease, even before significant symptoms appear.

My big takeaway from Trump's lengthy Air Force One gaggle is that he's talking about shredding the Constitution by being in office for a third term increasingly openly.

If you don't think he try it, you're in denial.

Trump on a third term: "I would love to do it. I have the best numbers ever. Am I not ruling it out? You'll have to tell me."
