The National Prayer Breakfast was yesterday and our Piggy is showing what a “good Christian” he is.
Not even surprising at this point.
Our Piggy isn’t just the worst President in American history, he’s one of the worst Americans in American history.

The regime is trying to frame the Minneapolis protests as a foreign-style insurgency, false propaganda. Citizens are using lawful, collective, and protective means to defend their communities in the face of militarized policing, community disruption, and civilian death, just like a foreign invasion.

BART's newly released concepts for what they'll do if Connect Bay Area transit funding measure fails are terrifying.
Phase 1: 63% train hours cut & 10 station closures
Phase 2: Cumulative 70% train hours cut, 15 station closures
Phase 3 (if required): END BART SERVICE
We must pass the measure!

Great title in the NYTimes this morning "Millions of Gallons of Raw Sewage Spill Into the Potomac River." From my vantage pt, I'd say millions of gallons of raw sewage is spewing FROM the Potomac River (area) onto the rest of the country and world every day. And no cleanup crew has shown up.
