...by invading Pennsylvania?

By the way, do you have any idea how far away Mobile is from Gettysburg? It's over a thousand miles. On foot.

I just saw 'Late Night with the Devil.' Wow. 🤯 This film's amazing! I had to watch it twice. 10 out of 10.

In a better time, this film would have won Oscars. I honestly prefer it to 'The Exorcist.' #FilmSky

Nice try, Academy, but 'Nosferatu' was better than every film on this list AND every Best Picture winner for the last few years. #FilmSky

If you're pissed off this Thanksgiving and have no wish to spend it surrounded by MAGA relatives, please know you're not alone. Nearly half the country feels that way, and for good reason.

Be thankful you're not celebrating what you know is wrong.
