Dear new followers, Thank you for following me. If you have no bio, have made no posts or replies, I will not follow back for now. And I am taking my time to get to know who people are. This is the brave new positive world and I like it the moderating and vetting, but most of all the energy.

Like so many members of our military, serving this country changed my life. The Navy gave me opportunities I wouldn't dream of and taught me lessons I'll never forget. I'm grateful for everything our nation has given me, and I'll always do everything I can to give back to it.

Have you noticed that Trump is trying to lay claim to any areas that have a coastline that comes along with exclusive economic zones? When I say it's about Russia wanting access to the world's resources, I'm not joking. Saudi Arabia has already said they plan to own all the energy.

The President doesn't want you standing up and speaking out against him, so he's coming after me to intimidate all of us.
But I won't back down — and neither should you.

Robert Redford playing a gentle incarnation of death, coming for a frightened old woman in The Twilight Zone episode "Nothing in the Dark" (1962). An extraordinary performance then, terribly bittersweet today

🇩🇪🇺🇦 Merz: I want to say very clearly: the end of this war is only possible with the full consent of Ukraine.
Wars cannot be ended in a way that great powers decide over the heads of those directly affected by the aggression.
This war can only be stopped with the consent of Ukraine and Europe.
