Never mind trying to explain it to these dolts. In their world, all female adults are referred to as mama โ€˜nโ€™em. They also donโ€™t have older adult women they could point out as being close to.

Oh for the days of the empty half pint paper milk cartons reinforced with wax!

What I find devastating is that we are quickly becoming a nation where laws donโ€™t matter.

Because he knows as little about flying a jet as he does about governing this country.

Weโ€™re going to be seeing a lot more of this behavior.

Iโ€™m really beginning to wonder if all of the people who have bowed the knee to Trump are actually in the Epstein files. Iโ€™m pretty sure they must be.

Really a kind thought, but right at the moment, pitching my skill against one other individual or group is more than Iโ€™m willing to take on.
Ask for submissions if you like, after the protest.
Thanks for the opportunity to share my thoughts with you.

Chris Murphy: "This is a country that's falling apart because Trump is in the middle of an authoritarian takeover. We're not on the verge of an authoritarian takeover. We're in the middle of it ... I have no moral obligation to vote for a budget that literally funds the destruction of our democracy"

Re: this segment

Dear CNN - I am so sick and tired of watching each of your roundtable discussions turn into shouting matches. Shrill shouts over each other make the participants in your segments into as unprofessional as possible. Besides, no one can understand a damn thing they say!

Itโ€™s happening everywhere. I have a friend who landed in Boston late last night. Had a car rental reservation and was told that there was no car available.

Oh, and neither are Substack podcasters, especially of the former news reporter stripe.

Hey JD, hows about you talk with Schumer now. 75 million of us didnโ€™t vote for you. I suspect that number has grown substantially.

Law, what law? The law in this country is on life support.

Then maybe they should tell Mikey J to play ball. Itโ€™s their loss, and a whole lot of people are watching.

Maybe itโ€™s time we fire him. A vote of No Confidence, anyone?

If we had a functional Republican party, the spectacle that took place today in front of our most respected military leaders would have resulted in bipartisan discussion of Hegseth's impeachment.

@apnews.com you might want to change that headline if you want to be considered a relevant source.

AOC: I think there's two things that are happening at once: One, there absolutely is an unprecedented abuse of power, destruction of norms, erosion of our government and our democracy in order to prop up an authoritarian style of governance

However, they are weaker than they lookโ€ฆ
