I bought the ingredients for making a pumpkin pie for Thanksgiving, 2 years ago. I put the ingredients on the counter and the pie pan so I wouldn't forget.

I just now made the pie and took it out of the oven.

Giving everyone a heads up for Merry Christmas this year.

Just 6 days after opening your Christmas presents, many of you will be without Healthcare for your entire family.

Just 36 days after Christmas, the government will shut down again, loss of jobs and the economy will crash.

Happy New Year!

Community members in Kenner, Louisiana, activate rapid-response teams to follow Greg Bovino and his Border Patrol goons through the neighborhood. They alert residents and warn them not to open their doors unless CBP has a court-ordered warrant.

Iowa restaurant drops salads amid national lettuce price spike The Welcome Inn Bar and Grill in Eddyville dropped salads from its menu after lettuce costs soared from $23 to nearly $80 amid nationwide supply issues.

Scott Bessent: โ€œAmericans donโ€™t realize how good they have it.โ€

Americans: We canโ€™t afford lettuce.

Strange phenomena. With access to Google and all the recipes on Earth, when I need to make something, I still go to my mother's 1940s Better Homes and Garden cook book. 1940s Betty Crocker cook book is back up.

It will end here. My daughter doesn't cook.

1) destroy the Biden economy at 2% inflation adding 450,000 jobs per month

2) implement 1800s economic policies rejected by 99% of economists

3) Lie that it's the best economy in history

4) when consumers' bank accounts are empty & their credit cards maxed, insult them, blame them, shame them

Give Bessent credit. Yes, we don't know how good we have it, because we don't.

It's gobsmacking. The hardest thing for Americans to understand and get, is that the GOP wants half the nation dead. Dead people don't cost money, don't need health care, don't need Social Security, don't need jobs. The bonus for the GOP is to kill the brown and black ones.

Wake up.

I haven't seen it, but in my opinion, much of the Trump Administration can be related more to Stalinist Russia than Nazi Germany. In reality, it's a mix of both. But Stalin ran the entire government for decades using oppression, paranoia, violence, terrorism. No Freedom whatsoever.

His great grandparents were Jews in Belarus. We'd have to deport almost the entire cabinet & Trump's extended family if we ended birthright citizenship.

FYI, birthright citizenship was very popular with very rich US citizens (also immigrants) when they needed cheap labor. Nothing has changed.

They will give you a stipend of $5 for lunch. It won't buy you lunch and it won't buy you a Starbucks coffee, but you might be able to buy a single cookie.

Report: Trump Considering Replacing Noem At DHS

It's a jungle out there. Barbie Noem may be fired by Trump because Lewandowski, Barbie's stud muffin is causing troubles with White House staff.

Evidently Lewandowski isn't willing to share Barbie Noem an Escort Melania is out of pocket.
