Remember when Kevin Roberts said “…we are in the process of the second American Revolution, which will remain bloodless if the left allows it to be”?

I think about that a lot.

This lawless administration is now operating under the “what are you gonna do about it” doctrine. A John Roberts creation.

Whether you agree with the original purpose of ICE or not, the original purpose is now irrelevant. It has transformed into an entity with the sole purpose of subjugating the populace. It must be dismantled.

The world feels rough right now

So please enjoy this shrimp, filmed off Cozumel, Mexico. It may be a larval reef shrimp, but we don’t know what species or how long it lives or what it eats. The world is still full of wonder and beauty and mystery.

And they we’ll also be charged for the oil we’re paying them to steal.
American taxpayers are now apparently going to be paying a 100 billions dollars to ‘Big Oil’ companies, to support them moving into Venezuela, and steal the country’s oil, according to trump!

-says 🇺🇸 oil companies will profit

-“we’re not afraid of boots on the ground”

Sound familiar? #Venzuela #IraqFiascoRedux

Trump on why he pardoned notorious drug trafficker Juan Hernandez: “It was a Biden set up. Take any country you want. If someone sells drugs in that country, that doesn’t mean you arrest the president and put him in jail for the rest of his life.”

So love wobbegongs. Everything is good about the wobbegong. Its name. Its flattened Oscar the Grouch face. Its frondy bits. Its lazy life as a hungry rug. And it’s a shark. Outstanding animal 10/10
The Tasselled Wobbegong is a master of disguise that can eat a fish almost as big as itself in one gulp. It's classified as a shark, but when it lays on the sea floor it looks like a harmless rug if you manage to see it. But with powerful jaws and sharp teeth they are no fish to mess with.

Hey Doc, so how's it look?

Well, there's some concern. I'm going to order an MRI and we'll take a look at that and go from there.

An MRI? For what?

I'm not going to tell you. You're just going to have to guess!

... said no doctor, ever.

Yep.
Is this what will happen? Govt will reopen, the vote in December will happen and fail, health subsidies will expire in January, and the govt will shut down again in January, at which point the middle class will be feeling the pinch?

The old rulebook is gone. It's not coming back and we all need to accept that. The DOJ is weaponized. the GOP is rigging elections. Trump is literally bulldozing the White House.

Democrats need to operate under this new reality, fight hard, and play by the same rules.
