Seven senators voted to give themselves a half million dollar taxpayer funded windfall as a condition to reopen the government. This is the definition of a dirty cr.

If members of the United States military are truly being paid their salaries by a private individual, the American people should know who that individual is. Now.

Pritzker: "In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists & protesters when unprovoked what would we call it? If officials marched down streets harassing civilians & demanding their papers, what would we say? I don't think we'd have trouble calling it what it is: authoritarianism"

Label that says I am not wearing underwear

Label that says I am not wearing underwear

Found stuck to my back this morning (fortunately before leaving the house). This is what happens when seven year olds have access to your label maker.

I looooove the Sharpsville house. I'll take a bit of mold given the cupola.

That he ended his marriage by getting another woman pregnant (again) then treated his now ex-wife so poorly is enough to disqualify him. But I'm sure this is just scratching the surface.

I once brined a turkey on the car ride down to thanksgiving. Never again. I cannot imagine air travel with a full thanksgiving meal.

Now is not the time for acceptance and resignation. This is - yet again - a time for commitment and action.

Do not say you’re weary - before the battle has been joined. Simply unacceptable.
