All the press reporters have handed in their press badges to the Pentagon, even Fox propaganda News handed in their press badges. The regime is losing control. We the People are fighting back. The regime is going to increase the violence to try to get us back down. Don't stop the resistance.

It’s like the whole no tax on tips, no tax on overtime thing. When there’s no restaurant, no jobs available and no tables to wait, there is no tax on tips. When there’s no job to go to, there is no over time to be taxed.

I spent $50 at grocery store just to make homemade chili. The 1.13 pounds of ground beef alone was $12 😳

A gallon of milk at Walmart is $9.95! Yes it is organic but wtf? I don’t usually shop there but was desperate and couldn’t believe the price. This is in the Deep South, not NorCal folks.

If and when Trump tariffs on Americans are removed, prices won’t go down. Our savings and livelihoods are being whittled away by a madman while Congress is on paid vacation.

You, Miss Molly, were lied to to get votes. We were all lied to.

Normally my default reaction to a live-action movie of a classic cartoon TV series would be largely pessimistic, but I actually think Jim Carrey would CRUSH IT as George Jetson in a live-action Jetsons movie. www.ign.com/articles/jim...

Jim Carrey in Talks to Star in The Jetsons Live-Action Movie - IGN

Jim Carrey is reportedly in talks to star in Warner Bros.’ live-action movie adaptation of the 1960s animated TV series The Jetsons, which Jurassic World’s Colin Trevorrow is in line to direct.

SCOTUS looks ready to erase another key piece of the Voting Rights Act, this time by striking down Louisiana’s Black-majority district for “relying too much on race.” Let me translate…they’re opening the door for states to erase Black and Latino districts that usually vote blue.

As a historian, I can certify that we are in the bad times. But bad times eventually end.
In the meantime:
• Figure out a small way to help someone
• Figure out a small way to fight back
• Figure out a small place to find joy
• Figure out a small way to grow and thrive

And do it often.

They're not even trying to hide it. Gone are the days in which these views were couched in doublespeak. The racism is on shameless, full display in the most powerful rooms in the federal government.

Visit the beautiful United States, see the lovli lakes and magnificent moose.

And get kidnapped, confined, tortured, and sold into slavery.

The tourist advertising all but writes itself.
