@cnn.com NYE festivities took a turn: For the lesbians.
And I’m pretty sure Anderson Cooper is drunk. 😂

Sometimes I don’t think my (adult) kids like me very much.
Am I the only one that feels like this? Is this normal?

I swear I wasn’t a complete asshole when I raised them.

I’m convinced that the people that support the orange dotard would fight to the death for the chance to lick the sweat off his saggy, wrinkled balls.

Hegseth orders rare meeting of hundreds of generals and admirals to be held next week.
They want to make sure that when the time comes, the military hierarchy will pick this administration over the American people while wiping their ass with the constitution.

He has no idea what he’s doing.

This isn’t the life I thought I was going to be living.
Everyday is like doomsday. It can really affect someone’s mental health.

Sometimes I think children think their parents have no feelings or maybe those feelings just don’t matter.
Either way, it kind of sucks.

Lisa Murkowski is a spineless waste of oxygen.

Also can we stop pretending Republicans actually care about the debt? Because they don’t.

Non-political post.

Handmaids Tale: They just deleted the most interesting character on the show.

What’s the point, now?

I had no idea fly fishing was so physically demanding.
I can hardly move my arms.

I had a great day indoctrinating students today.

CNN’s Harry Enten was dishing it out this morning and I couldn’t help but chuckle.

The way someone chuckles when the world is collapsing, anyhow.

Martha Stewart went to prision for less.

RIP USAID — all remaining 900 employees will be fired.

Dear American citizens, whatever you wish more German citizens would have done in 1933, do that now.

I've seen this before.

This woman is EVERYTHING

After President Trump's inauguration last month, he has steadily signed a slate of executive orders to keep these education promises: combatting critical race theory, DEl, gender ideology extremism, and discrimination in admissions. President Trump has also been focused on eliminating wasteful bureaucracy and harmful programs in the federal government. To that end, today he signed [Executive Order XYZ, entitled "Eliminating the Department of Education,] which has given us a clear and final mission. We are to identify which of the Department's functions, programs, and offices are not mandated by statute, and eliminate them.

This plan will offer Congress a road map toward fulfilling the expectations of the President and the American people. The new vision—which I hope each of you will embrace going forward—can be expressed as four main convictions: Parents are the primary decision makers in their children's education.
