Have purposely avoided social media as long as possible. Time to speak up and get involved. So, hi everyone, pleasure to be here.

Frogs in slowly heating water is a popular allegory for being unaware that you are being destroyed in an incrementally worsening situation.

PBS News Hour began 50 years ago with a different name.

The show launched in 1975 as "The Robert MacNeil Report," and was inspired by MacNeil and Jim Lehrer's gavel-to-gave coverage of the Senate Watergate hearings two years earlier.

Investigate Pam Bondi for her connections to the Epstein trial in Florida and her dealings with the country of Qatar way back when.

🚨 🚨 ICYMI: Federal judges caught the U.S. government providing false info in over 35 court cases.

Sworn declarations. Falsified records. Repeated lies.

Actor Robert De Niro: “I like what Letitia James is doing. She’s fighting back. She’s saying fuck you. I’m sorry, this is where we are. She’s saying this is it. I will not be taken down by this person. I am not afraid of him. God bless her for that.”
This is Mike.
Mike enjoys being #shit on.
Mike has made a career out of being shit on.
Mike especially enjoys DJT's shit.

As a result, Mike finds this video of #DJT shitting on America, immensely satisfying both personally and professionally.
