I liked Liam Neeson but I am done with super rich public figures promoting anti-vaxx bullshit that will have a impact on the lives of so many.

"I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody, and I wouldn't lose any voters, OK?" Trump remarked at a campaign stop at Dordt College in Sioux Center, Iowa. "It's, like, incredible."

OMG! In Comey's motion to dismiss for vindictive prosecution, he points to others who have lied to Congress that were NOT prosecuted. Number one is JEFF SESSIONS when he said "I have been called a surrogate at a time or two, but I did not have contact with the Russians." 1/

Former Lithuanian Health Minister Aurimas Peฤkauskas spent two weeks in a combat zone in Ukraine โ€” working as an anesthesiologist, not a politician. This was his third visit.

He didn't come to give speeches or photo ops.๐Ÿ‘‡

Marine artillery shell detonates over freeway during Camp Pendleton event Marines are investigating after a 155mm artillery round exploded over Interstate 5, hitting California Highway Patrol vehicles with shrapnel.

Unlike 47, VP, & Hegseth, Governor Newsom voiced concerns for public safety about the Marines shooting artillery over I-5. Fortunately, he had I-5 closed for public safety. The Marines/Dept. Of War did NOT request I-5 to be closed. One governs to protect the people. The other doesnโ€™t give a shit.

There is a stink emanating from the House of Reps created by the refusal of Johnson to swear in Rep-Elect Adelita Grijalva. Very reminiscent of the stench that rose from the Senate in 2016 when McConnell refused to hold a hearing re Obamaโ€™s nominee for Supreme Court.Someone please file a law suit.
