I’m learning Spanish just because we have so many Spanish speakers in this country & I taught myself a little bit of Turkish to please a Turkish neighbor of mine.
I realize not everyone wants to do this but it doesn’t cost anything at all to be nice.
It’s an opportunity if you choose it to be one.

What a great idea. If they deny him a Kennedy Center Honor next year, Mike Lindell can certainly present him with a “My Pillow” award.

And there you have it. Same snake she has always been.
Instead of owning her toxic behavior, apologizing & promising to do better, she deflects with “I know you are but what am I?”
Any hope that she has seen the error of her ways is evaporated.
She’s just losing at MAGA & looking for a new angle.

That is certainly the hope.

I’m not gonna lie, it was really uncomfortable feeling compassion for that petty tyrant.
But then I watch what is meant to be his mouth opening, moving in that disgusting way as he sniffs and speaks and suddenly I’m overwhelmed by feelings of disgust.
Trust me, the feeling didn’t last too long.

True. Veruca Salt from beginning to end.
And let’s not forget his pretense earlier that he didn’t know who was going to be ‘honored’ with the award that was made up specifically for him.
Like, dude, why bother to pretend? You’re no good at acting & we all know the truth anyway.

I remember hearing this cringy ‘theory’ in the 80’s as some kind of mildly humorous way of getting Christian couples to understand each other.
It looks like it became gospel to some people & now they spout it like it’s some kind of scientific fact.
This is why I can’t abide debating ignorant men.

Or mussing his ridiculous comb-over.
So great was his neediness that he was willing to look like a boob by putting it on himself.
Ya think he was pissed that no-one was appointed to place it around his neck for him?
I was actually embarrassed for him in that moment. I hope to never feel that again.

Ha-ha, you fool! You fell victim to one of the classic blunders, the most famous of which is "Never get involved in a land war in Asia", but only slightly less well known is this: "Never trust the Supreme Court when democracy is on the line.”

I know an FBI agent and they are doing all they can to ride out this situation in hopes that we’ll get back on track after the next election. But they are also prepared to get fired or have to leave at any time because that’s just how things are in this agency right now.

I always let my grandchildren (& children) off the hook if they didn’t want hugs or physical contact because I wasn’t allowed to have personal boundaries when I was a child & guess what?
I was molested by a family elder & while it was happening I was afraid of offending him by trying to get away.

If so many Reps are unhappy wouldn’t they have enough votes to simply remove Johnson as speaker?
I think it only takes 9, right?
Are the numbers too small or is there something else that would prevent them from replacing Johnson? Too risky? It seems like leaving office would be the last resort.

Bondi, Patel, et al were the perfect marks for the consummate con man. Trump played on their greed & thirst for power. They have now lied & run interference for him so they see that their necks are on the line.

I’m am trying to wrap my brain around why Mike Johnson is so unwavering in his attempts to keep the public from knowing what is in the Epstein investigation files.
Is the Project 2025/Christian Nationalist agenda really so urgent that he’ll hang his ass out?
Or is Trump blackmailing him somehow?

I have a 40-yr-old who is 100% dependent.
The paperwork, the red-tape, the constant fear of supports being revoked leaving you to scramble once again.
And above all, what happens when I can no longer do it for her? What happens when I die?

I guess it shouldn’t be shocking how & why our true history was glossed over in the telling. But it does our nation & it’s citizens no favors when the truth is hidden.
