Why did white people in rural America vote to defund rural hospitals? You have insurance companies denying coverage everywhere they can. You voted in people to remove government funding for most helpful rural services! So, why?

Kendrick Lamar put on a very well put together show. I did not understand a lot of what was being said even WITH closed captioning on. Not being a rap fan probably had a lot to do with that. It just seemed to lack coherent thoughts to me. Overall i did like the entire show.

Trump is one of the people who started the band on TikTok. Now he is fully embracing TikTok. See what a handy bribe can do.

According to trump, we are all women! By executive order, I’m a woman, you’re a woman, she’s a woman, he’s a woman! Basic biology. All embryos at conception are female. It is not until about six weeks later that they decide to eat become male or female.

Wha do you call these then? "Los Angeles, where we are watching fires still tragically burn from weeks ago without even a token of defense." - Donald Trump.

And then I went away. Luckily my wife is a nurse and jumped right into nurse mode and brought me back. If you ever feel something weird going on inside of, let somebody know, scream for help. Do what you Gotta do to get somebody to pay attention. Mike 2.0 is now four years old. Happy birthday to me.

I died. Literally. Four years ago today, about 6:57 at night. Just sitting down to eat a little supper and felt a little funny and put my hand down to take my pulse. I noticed my heart was not beating. Hollered at my wife, Carmen. I got five words out. I said β€œmy heart is not beating”. 1/2

Lost all respect for time magazine. To make a convicted felon, fascist, racist, womanizer, lying cheat, man of the year is despicable.
