The largest war ship in the world has been moved to the Caribbean, along with other ships, bombers, amphibious vehicles and more.

That’s a lot of firepower to stop small vessels carrying drugs.

It looks a lot more like preparation for war.

Congress needs to get involved before it’s too late.

Still awaiting my George $oros payment for showing up at #NoKINGS_Day & staying until noon.

Somebody slipped this 20 under my door, but something about it seems fake.

uh-oh. turns out the mortgage document that the DOJ is alleging was fraudulent b/c great niece paid some rent (great niece testified she didn't) refers to "short-term rentals," which seems to blow DOJ theory that it could't be rented out of the water. Another disaster of a case.

My middle grade novel in prose-verse, HeartLand, grew to 109,000 words. It's now 72,000. But the ghosts of those words are there, haunting what remains. I just received the ARCs, and yes, I can definitely feel those missing words hovering at the edges. Cover reveal coming soon! #kidlit #MG #poetry

Pennsylvania has an important Supreme Court race coming up on Tuesday, November 4. If you live in the Keystone State, or know someone who does, vote YES to retain three justices who will protect your fundamental rights and freedoms.

Welch: "This has nothing to do with the shutdown. The law requires and the funds are available to continue SNAP right now without any interruption. So that is a decision the president is making on his own to allow people to go hungry."

If the MRI Was "Perfect" Why Is Trump Being Led Like Drooling Dementia Patient By Japan's PM?

The first rule of screenwriting is "show me, don't tell me." And if you wanted to establish that a 79-year-old dementia patient who just had an MRI a few days ago wasn't doing so well,

President Trump is reportedly trucking dirt from his White House demolition to a D.C. golf course he plans to take over.

If any other president was doing this kind of thing in office, they’d be eviscerated with accusations of greed, or at least a lack of focus. trib.al/7vXIQ6Q
