Politics geek. Lover of civil rights, books, democracy, abortion rights, empathy, science, & common sense.
I smite trolls. No DMs.
My guess is those two notes he listed were the best of the bunch.

Hate to think how awful the rest were.

Wait until small towns start to see more of their hospitals and clinics shut down.

Republican politicians keep actively screwing their base voters & their whole communities.

Also a way for him to avoid paying child support.

If only other billionaires were like her, instead of being evil oligarchs screwing over the rest of us.

Thai food is my comfort food!

I grew up in a small rural town in the Deep South. It’s a land of endless cucumbers, green peppers (yuck), oranges, and watermelons. No fresh asparagus available. 😩

Who dropped the dime on Leavitt’s brother’s baby momma/ex-fiancé?

Sounds like *someone* didn’t want to share custody or pay child support.

Those members of the National Guard should have been at home, planning their Thanksgiving.

Not stuck in DC (& other cities) by a President who doesn’t care about them or their safety.

My deepest sympathies to those members of the Guard (hope they turn out to be ok!) and their families & friends.

But was Trump awake when they briefed him?

😆 Awwww, I appreciate your offer!
I’d never even tasted a non-canned version of asparagus until a friend cooked it for us in grad school.😋

This year Mom and I plan to enjoy our second year of takeout Thanksgiving Thai yellow curry & pad Thai. She has cooked enough Thanksgiving food over the years!

Our veggie was always chilled canned asparagus. Who has time/space to cook a vegetable, right?

In fairness, due to my brother’s allergies, Mom had to make separate poultry/egg-free versions of everything for him so our oven & fridge (& bellies) were packed!

Plus what happened to all our stolen personal information?

And DOGE shut down the investigations into Musk and his companies. How much more will that cost the country by facilitating more corruption, lawbreaking, employee injuries, and environmental hazards?

The blue, yellow, & green cups support local jobs & businesses.

Each $1 of blue & green = +$1.50 to local economies.

The ACA funds keep healthcare centers open, keep Americans healthier & out of bankruptcy, & keep uninsured costs from being passed on to us.

Handouts to the rich hurt us all.

Buttigieg: “Let’s make airlines treat people like people and compensate travelers for the impact of poor business practices.”

Duffy: “Let’s eliminate airline rules and spend all our time badmouthing working class Americans who just want to survive their flights.”

I appreciate you trying to defend your comment and imply it was something other than what we all read. 😉

But your belated questions do make sense. Welcome to the party, pal!

What every writer of a well-researched article needs is someone who completely missed the point chiming in.

👍👍 Sounds like a great way for gullible men to have their wallets stolen.

It’s like being in an abusive relationship. The best time to leave might have been a year ago but the second best time is now.

Those people could already be building their followers here, instead of feeling stuck surrounded by hateful Russian and Nazi bots & trolls.

The women from Dynasty want their giant 1980s shoulder pads back!

Any bets on whether Target employees will be expected to spend more time with customers while still getting the back room work completed, without Target hiring any additional help?

Too many MAGAs will do anything for attention and profit.

She probably expected to be on a paid tour of all the right wing talk shows by now with a hefty signing bonus for a book deal.
