Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.

Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

Not my mom. She stayed absolutely polite and forever thankful to all her caregivers until the very end. My dad though. When sundowning, he would be profane and say inappropriate things. Which was extremely out of character for him.

My perfectly mannered mother started doing this as her dementia took hold. Just sayin’.

I fear that they know the end goal is to no longer have elections. And the unending power is more important to them than anything.

Don’t you get the feeling that something, all of a sudden, has him thinking about his own mortality?

Agreed. Hakeem Jeffries is turning out to be quite the disappointment.

The Neighbors where aliens impersonated humans in a gated condo community with awesome names like Larry Bird and his son Dick Butkus.

About this Florida vaccine story:

When they were little - 1 yr and 3 1/2 - my two older boys, who’d had all their shots, got whooping cough.

We asked their pediatrician what would’ve happened if they hadn’t been vaccinated.

β€œOh, they’d have died.”

It’s outrageous that Sec. Kennedy is trying to fire the CDC Director β€” after only a few weeks on the job β€” for her commitment to public health & vaccines.

The Sen. HELP Committee must hold a hearing with Kennedy & the CDC Director as soon as possible.

Vaccines save lives. Period.

Exactly. As a retired interior designer, I get it. The American fabric mills have been gone for decades, many materials for furniture and hard surfaces don’t exist in the US.

My husband’s commercial construction company now has a tariff manager. Their prices on estimates and bids have to be redone constantly. And they can no longer guarantee prices for more than a few days. As a result, my husband (who is chief estimator) works longer hours and is exhausted all the time.
