On one trip, drove along the north shore of Superior from the BWCA. Saw FATHER Baraga's cross. Then headed east through the UP. Saw BISHOP Baraga's cross. His trip across Lake Superior apparently earned him a promotion!😉

Wait a minute...The U.S. can arbitrarily terminate leases, but if a foreign country terminates leases - oh, let's just say U.S. oil company leases in South America - the U.S. can claim ownership of that land and start a war against that country. Got it...

The Dems had actual ideas and concepts and turned them into an actual plan -15 years ago. And a lot of people like it. Repubs have zero ideas, concepts, and plans that would actually be functional. Not the Dems fault that the health system is now profit-driven, run by MBA's and huge corporations.

Oh good - this will give Republicans 3 more years to work on a plan they're already been working on for 15 years, adding up to a grand total of 18 years without a plan.

Tired of media saying, “Congress can’t agree on a plan.” BS. Dems already HAD a plan that helped people afford health care. Then Republicans voted to ditch that plan and increase costs for 20 million people. Now MAGA can’t agree on a plan because they don’t really have one after 15 years of whining.

My guess: Miller, Vance, etc. have all sidelined her and show her absolutely no respect, so she can't do her job. And she's pissed.

The side pushing this hatred is the same side that is building golf resorts in Muslim Saudi Arabia and accepted a gift of a $1 billion jet from a Muslim country. Can’t have it both ways!

Will every NFL stadium that had a moment of silence for Kirk have a moment of silence for these innocent young adults today?

So many visitors come here from these countries. I have a couple of German friends who were going to visit next summer, and I'm going to try to talk them out of it.
