Yeah, so we're all concerned with ICE & his deal with Qatar & not with a toaster costing $100. I need to brush up on my fire building skills. I'm gonna need to start campfire cooking if things keep getting more expensive.

We've trained foreign pilots for years on 🇺🇸 soil. Nothing new. BUT, as far as I know there's not been a dedicated foreign training facility here for someone's foreign military. Deep 🟥 Idaho, home of some serious domestic terrorists who want another J6/permanent Nazi 🇺🇸? Something's rotten in Idaho. 🤷‍♀️

It never will make sense. Other than for the ego & greed of MAGA Republicans.

We've trained foreign pilots forever here in 🇺🇸. Nothing new. But, as far as I know countries have never had an actual facility here. My complete & total concern about this: is he setting things up for a foreign military colab w/ loyalists in the armed forces to really fuck us? Paranoid? Maybe. 🤷‍♀️😐

I'm fascinated by modern songs that could be fairy ballads. Hotel California - man stumbles across strange hotel at night which is actually a fairy hill. Sees many strange things. Can never leave. Jolene-mortal woman contesting with leannàn side (fairy lover) for the mortal woman's husband. House of the rising sun- unseelie gambling house/brothel whose location shifts but which always lures in the unwary. Ruin of many a young man.

I hope the NP committee understands that even considering him as a serious candidate will make the prize forever a joke. There'll be the serious before Trump🏅& after joke Trump 🏅. One fabricated good deed doesn't negate a lifetime of corruption & heinous acts. We'll create a new valid peace prize.

I've known this statistic for a long time. Obviously, half-assed research & money was the goal, not actually helping patients. I know there are serious researchers out there. It's tragic it took them that long to get this changed.

In 1992, Whitney’s “I Will Always Love You” hit #1. In 1993, the NIH finally required women and people of color in clinical trials. Let that sink in.

John Fetterman was a Democrat. Then he got a brain injury and became a Republican.

If you can come up with a better example of what it takes to become a Republican, I challenge you to try.

Wait, wait, wait just a minute here. Who *are* these tubby guys? What are they doing? Are they Americans? I've seen large LEOs, but rarely military. These can NOT be 🇺🇸 soldiers. These can't be any country's military. I'm really not into size shaming but if this is ICE we should just bribe them w/ 🌮.

At some point, someone, somewhere, some country/countries are going to get real fucking tired of this American president & his Captain Morgan sidekick & their antics. And average Americans & soldiers will pay a heavy price for their fuckery. 🤷‍♀️😐

NEW: TN’s Senators Blackburn & Hagerty joined Republicans in blocking a resolution that would’ve forced Trump to get congressional approval for targeted killings.

AP: The Trump admin hasn’t shown Congress any evidence that the targeted boats were smuggling drugs.

What I *do* know is beef prices here are still high, so they are making money, either in claiming the loss or in actual sales. I see a lot of beef being thrown out (ask any meat dept employee). They mark it down but at 25% off, meh, it's still high. It's never big business that suffers. Just us.

From Texas Reporter FB. Trump has managed to make other countries great again by tearing down American farmers; the poor bastards who helped put him in office. 🤦‍♀️ Now, this *is* from Chinese state media. They lie like Miller, so.....could be true. 🤷‍♀️

China's state media bragging about Brazil breaking records selling soybeans & beef to China, products the US used to sell them.
