Love how we spend >$850 billion annually on defense so that we can have a week's worth of relevant munitions.

MAGA called me pro-war for saying we should give Ukraine weapons to help them defend their sovereignty.

This morning, they're cheering as America bombs Iran.

They stand for nothing.

Nothing whatsoever.

Just canceled my Paramount+ with Showtime account & commented that I was unhappy about the purchase of Warner Bros & concerned about the direction CNN may go.

I rarely watch CNN now but I'd hate to see it become another right wing propaganda machine because Canadian friends & family watch it.

"We" didn't win shit.
"You" should never be allowed to put your hands on a medal that requires a lifetime of discipline and training to win.
And to Fox News, who used this moment, to attack Canada: "Hockey is all they have and we took it from them!" Go fuck yourself you useless, talentless fucks.

They got the reception they deserve by accepting the invitation. What did they expect? Auston looks like he's questioning his decision. πŸ˜‚ Enjoy your burger. He's lucky he's playing in Tampa tonight & not Toronto. The fans may not be pleased.

Border Patrol released Nurul Amin Shah Alam, a 56 yo man, nearly blind with serious medical conditions, at "an old address & his family had since moved" in Buffalo, NY in the winter. "His family was not initially notified." He was found dead. @news4buffalo.bsky.social

The President boasts of "no tax on tips", but this expires in 2028.
He boasts of "no tax on overtime," but it is taxed, and the break expires in 2028.
He boasts of "no tax on social security," but it is taxed, and his break expires in 2028.

He also passed tax cuts for the rich. They're permanent.

They do! What about the other gold medal winners? Are they invited too? I guess if you don't pound beers with the FBI director your accomplishments don't matter. 🀷

Bill Guerin Had To Know Better Than Letting Kash Patel Steal His Team's Spotlight Generally, I operate under a "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy regarding an athlete's political beliefs. As a careful observer of the hit HBO documentary "Heated Rivalry," I found that absolutely zero of...

Don't make it political then complain that it has been made politically. 🀷

Patel didn't crash the locker room. He was invited in! This was the players' moment & without that invite would we even have known or cared what their political leanings are?

Yes it is sad. But the positive is that the mother cat was rescued & saved & was loved for many years by her new family. I wish we could save them all but they're are so many unwanted cats & kittens. 😒

They made it political the minute they let Kash Patel in the dressing room to yuk it up with them like an entitled frat boy.
The devils play tomorrow. Maybe he should go back to Jersey.

The cat was a pregnant stray kitten they found. The vet said she was too young & she may not take care of her kittens. The fetus didn't go home in a zip lock bag. It was properly preserved in a jar.
The girl eventually graduated with a degree in biology so this was a learning experience for her.

Nah. He should leave them. Then the outside will match the inside. So disappointed in his words and actions following their win. I thought he was a better person.

I'm thinking a few of them who play on Canadian teams will get an icy reception when they get back. I hope Ottawa gives Tkachuk the reception he deserves.

We had a vet whose office was in his basement. You could stay with your pet thru anesthesia & surgery if you wanted. A friend's daughter brought home a kitten fetus after watching the spaying. He called the pets Pumpkin & Sweetheart. When he died it was like we lost a member of the family. πŸ’”

U.S. Women's Hockey Team Declines Trump's SOTU Invite After Degrading 'Joke' Trump has faced backlash for teasing that he had to invite the women to D.C. along with the men's team, both of which earned Olympic gold.

Good. It's called backbone. And the men's team is "showing their ass" by agreeing to celebrate at the White House after this jackass mocked the women's team. They are a national embarrassment now and they can go kick rocks. www.huffpost.com/entry/usa-wo...

I hope, on his return to Ottawa, he gets the reception he deserves.
