The Buffalo Bills fired head coach McDermott. What should have happened is the estate of owner Ralph Wilson and the NFL should have sold the team toTrump. The Bills would have e been awful but the world would have been better off no matter what Republican or Democrat was elected President.

Quit talking about Trump. Address everything, every issue to Miller and Vought. Make Trump irrelevant, his ego will not let him be out of the spotlight and you’ll see Miller and Vought removed and the rest of the administration collapse.

The CEOs of two major NYC hospital systems rake in over $16M and $26M per year 💸 Meanwhile, nearly 15,000 nurses are walking off the job--demanding safe staffing, fair pay, and protection from workplace violence. This is standing up for dignity.

Our sixteen-year-old dog died on Friday, and my wife and I are very upset to lose such a sweet, loving member of our family. Kristi Noeme, on the other hand, shot and killed her dog because it wasn't a very good hunting dog. Now she runs an agency that is gunning down Americans. Any surprise?

Bad enough we are drifting to fascism, on top of that, today we lost our beautiful, sweet little Patches. We had her 16.5 years. She would wait for me in the window when I went running, then bark like crazy when I came home, so my wife would let her out to lead me back home.

SAVE all videos & photos from today. They will be valuable to prove the ICE agent --- who had time to move & re-position himself to the side of the victim's car to shoot into the driver's side window --- was not in reasonable fear of imminent serious physical injury or death.

5 years later, a stubborn fight over the basic facts of the Jan. 6 riot
