The attempted funding freeze seems to have awakened the Democrats who have been taking a Power Nap since November. We are back and ready to fight! Go Team Blue!!

Iโ€™m a 59 yr old rancher in TX who is not a big fan of current country music and I seriously donโ€™t get the criticism of Beyoncรฉโ€™s NFL halftime performance. I thought it was perfection and better than any Super Bowl halftime that I can remember. 77 yr old spouse said the same. ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ

Boy are Republicans struggling right now. They're finding out that tariffs are actually taxes, Obamacare is actually the ACA, and that Project 2025 was actually the plan all along.

Canada's top military commander Jennie Carignan calls out the GOP for questioning women in combat: After 39 years as a combat arms officer and risking my life in many operations, I canโ€™t believe that in 2024, we still have to justify women's contribution to defense and service in their country...

So I made some Thanksgiving Dinners in a bag for my local food pantry box. Saw a lady with a wagon take them less than 10 minutes after I put them in. Each was Dinner for 2. I really hope she was sharing with those in need.

Thinking about the Thanksgiving shopping list I need to make before I get to the grocery at 7AM. I need to be sleeping. Itโ€™s a long day of cooking today.

Police records reveal new details about sexual assault allegation against Pete Hegseth The incident has roiled Trumpโ€™s transition team since the former president announced Hegseth as his nominee for defense secretary.

โ€œAn emergency room nurse contacted police in 2017 after treating a woman who said that while drinking with colleagues after a political gathering several nights earlier she may have been drugged and was then sexually assaulted by a man she later identified as Pete Hegsethโ€

The part that I find comical about Joe and Mika is that they really think this is just a PHASE and viewers will come back.

Wait till the find out this PHASE is gonna last forever. Cancel the show now

There IS a left-wing agenda, and itโ€™s to prioritize compassion over greed. Kindness isn't a limited resource.

The controversy is not merely that Matt Gaetz raped underaged girls.

The controversy is not even just that Donald Trump wants to make this sex predator attorney general.

The controversy is that the entire GOP is OK with that.

POTUS should release the FBI files on all of The Rapistโ€™s nominees if he is going to forego the traditional vetting process. The American people deserve transparency. #draintheswamp
