I’m a gun owner. My entire inheritance from my dad was guns.

That said, we should regulate guns.

Trump could have called in the National Guard on J6, but didn't. So much for law and order. Only when it suits him.

I'll be posting clips from time to time of 'Trump's Day Of Love on January 6th', just to remind people what MAGA love really looks like. 🗽

A Few Good Men was one of Rob Reiner's movies. I can hear Jack Nicholson's response, "You can't handle the truth!"

Is today the day Hegseth will finally release the second strike boat video, or is he going to continue to hide everything he’s doing from the American people?

I know things can feel heavy and hopeless at times. There is so much needless death and tragedy all around us.

When you’re feeling low, reach out to your loved ones. Tell them how much they mean to you.

Spread some love and laughter in a weary world.

If car companies were smart, they would make 1 low cost car in their lineup, and keep the design for at least 5 years to lower costs. We are rapidly transferring people into poverty. A $5000 car with a good design and low cost replacement parts would be a huge assist to the poor.

Undecided voter: “How can someone like you convince me that my vote matters”

James Talarico: “They wouldn't be trying so hard to stop you from voting if your vote didn't matter — Texas is one of the hardest places to vote in the entire country. That is by design”

15 people were killed in an antisemitic attack at Bondi Beach on Sunday, an act more shocking because of the low gun violence numbers in Australia.

As it turns out, the only way to stop a bad guy with a gun *isn’t* a good guy with a gun—it can be a good guy *without* a gun. Just another NRA lie.

So I stay, and you stay. We are holding up the world in our own small way.

This is for those who will never give up, even if you dream of running. For those of you who stay when it would be easier to go.

Let’s get Tiffany, the Epstein recruiter, to discuss the Court testimony she gave as a witness to Trump raping 13 yr old Katie Johnson (pseudonym). It’s in the files.
