How did we get to this?

Can't compare this to Xitter as I was never there; but I like it here. Many good and interesting people. DMs / gofundme / OF / crypto / religion / MAGA = Block.

I have to believe that sheโ€™ll get what she deserves.

Are You a โ€˜Heritage Americanโ€™? Why some on the right want to know if your ancestors were here during the Civil War

She may have been featured in a wall calendarโ€ฆ

Ugh. Iโ€™m not even looking at that. Iโ€™ve seen as much as I care to see.

Nope. Not buying anything from Amazon. Where have you been?

Yes, itโ€™s kinda curious, isnโ€™t it?

From what Iโ€™ve seen of Katie Porter, sheโ€™s always right about the math. I think she has a reputation for being right about the math.

Nice. I visited for a couple of weeks some years ago and stayed at the Observatory Lodge while in the Arenal area. Probably my favorite trip ever! I donโ€™t think Iโ€™ve ever encountered nicer or more helpful people than ticos.

Ours are Desert Spinys, close cousins I believe. Iโ€™ve got one big boy about 8โ€ nose to tail.
Do you spend a lot of time in Arenal? If you donโ€™t mind me asking, howโ€™s the political climate in CR these days?

08.10.2025 00:58 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 1    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Sure; but to this administration (and Chairman Grassley) thatโ€™s just blather.

I had no idea that this is an option! Android or iOS?

Wow. I actually read and understood this from my long ago high school French! I guess I havenโ€™t lost it entirely.
But tbh, if I heard it spoken I probably wouldnโ€™t.

Is there maybe a more reliable source than FB? Not enough detail here.

๐Ÿค” Sheโ€™s not quite 60. Is it the pressure of the job, or is there another โ€œCandymanโ€ in the White House?

07.10.2025 23:00 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Because Chuck Grassley is the committee chairman, and he doesnโ€™t want to piss off Trump.

07.10.2025 22:47 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 1    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

No, sheโ€™s doing exactly what Trump wants her to do. At least for right now. Once this all goes south he will throw her under the bus.

No need to score one over another, or all the others. Sad to say Iโ€™ve got plenty of hate to go around.

07.10.2025 22:35 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 1    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Yes; that was the last time that the Insurrection Act was invoked, iirc. Sheโ€™s trying to set the stage for Trump to invoke it now.

โ€œShamedโ€? Sheโ€™d better get worse than that.

My view is that either theyโ€™re all right, or none of them are. Not sure which.

07.10.2025 22:18 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Making no sense, as usual.

Wut? This exchange is totally incomprehensible to me, which I guess marks me as a boomer.

Iโ€™m not in the medical profession at all, but I second your motion!

Well, no surprise there. Isnโ€™t she a leader in the Prosperity Gospel movement? I wonder if she pays any taxes at all?

The chairman needs to mute her mic until itโ€™s her turn to speak. What a disgraceful performance.

I hope disbarment is the least of the consequences she suffers.
