I wake up to beat the sun from her glory
I'm only one cigarette away from mobility
It's always punch in punch out
Go to work and go back home
There's only one chance left

I'm only one cigarette away from mobility

Demanding this guy's resignation really seems like the compromise option at this point, since really, we should be demanding his head on a pike.

CNN calling out FBI's so called doorbell release at Guthrie's house as utter bullshit.
Rightly so.
NINE days ago the feds said "this appears to be a very tech savvy individual. He disabled the Ring doorbell before arriving on scene."
Now all of a sudden they've found unidentifiable video footage?

With the threat of additional tariffs looming over foreign countries and the 2026 midterms, House GOP leaders tried to adopt legislation Tuesday night that would prevent any lawmaker from forcing a vote on President Donald Trump’s tariffs until August.
That effort failed, however, 214-217

When the war is too long
And your rights are all wrong
When they lie to your face put 'em in their place
Stand up and be strong

Trump leaves Republicans guessing on midterms plans as outlook darkens
That's because he doesn't have a plan. He doesn't have the barest concept of an idea of a plan. He's making it up as he goes along, to be as hateful as possible in every way we can imagine.
The folks with plans put them in P25.

Many guys have come to you
With a line that wasn't true
And you passed them by
Now you're in the center ring
And their lines don't mean a thing
Why don't you let me try

I don't even have a song to sing
All I know is
La la la la la la la la la means I love you
