Pay Eric Nichols using PayPal.Me Go to paypal.me/gojibear77 and type in the amount. Since it’s PayPal, it's easy and secure. Don’t have a PayPal account? No worries.

Third is Eric, disabled cancer patient. We all thought he was covered via inerim donations to his GoFundMe. Apparently someone accidentally checked "monthly," then today asked for a refund, leaving him $200 short. PayPal here: www.paypal.me/gojibear77.

The IDF account announced the new bombing campaign with a video of fighter jets set to the tune of β€œFortunate Son” by Creedence Clearwater Revival from 1969.

The song was an anti-war anthem in the United States during the Vietnam War.

Amazing how a few times a year every year for like a decade it gets leaked, with a paper trail, that all Republicans talk like Gestapo officers when they're in private, and we're still supposed to believe these people can be reasoned with.

A new mystery emerges about Epstein's involvement in Harvard genetics study Someone seems to have altered the Personal Genome Project’s profile page believed to belong to Epstein to indicate he provided consent to join the study Jan. 31, 2026.

Somebody altered Epstein's profile to indicate that he provided his consent to join the study on 1/31/26

One day after the DOJ released a batch of files, and six years after he was found dead

Uhhhhhh... What?

DOJ Chose Which Epstein Files You’d See β€” And Left Out the Trump Ones: WSJ WSJ reports DOJ kept 47,635 Epstein files offline β€” and released one FBI memo while withholding three that referenced Donald Trump.

DOJ didn't have all those FBI agents going through the Epstein files flagging Trump's name for no reason. They tried to release only the files without Trump's name in them, but they missed a few. A few. Most of the bad stuff about Trump is being kept from us. 2/2

Your privileges as Senator should not exempt you from assault charges. I hope he sues you. You are clearly acting outside of your role as Senator and thus not immune from litigation.
