Bobby has been at the Reagan Medical Center at UCLA in LA for more than 9 weeks. But a temporary setback of an emergency surgery is keeping him here for approx 2 weeks -- really praying for Christmas!

We really need to continue funding his outpatient room!

Chip in $20, $27, $35, $50, $100 or more:

I just received a call from the Ronald Reagan Medical Center at UCLA and Bobby is being rushed to the operating room and being prepped for emergency surgery at 3:30 a.m.

His ureter is blocked, concern about kidney function and sepsis.

Needs support, prayers, reposts and love!

Thank you! ❤️

I am so sick of hearing Trump be disrespectful to primarily female reporters. It’s repulsive to watch. Funny thing is when SNL & 60 minutes talk or joke about him he has a complete breakdown on his platform. He’s a pathetic bully to women & I am ready for someone to give it back to him.

Supreme Court poised to expand Trump’s power over independent agencies

A ruling in favor of Trump’s position has been expected by legal experts because the justices have been chipping away at a precedent known as Humphrey’s Executor.

The last day has been "touch and go." Bobby doesn't have the strength to speak, he's medicated and he'll be resting for several days - his treatment is on hold - a setback.

I've got to raise 💵 for his GoFund Me to pay for his housing.

I have to say I love, love, love Jasmine Crockett and would also love to see her in the Senate. No shade at all to James Talarico. It's nice to have a bigger bench and some competition. And they both promise to be great senators.

And I'm glad Allred is out.

If you get yourself all worked up and sweaty before you board a tube that flies through the sky with no escape... sit as far away from me as possible.

Also, didn't Duffy JUST say that we should all be dressed for prom when we fly so we can show pride in our country?

FROM BOBBY: Still in recovery. I'm really sore and exhausted. This was definitely a setback and they're going to give me something for the pain. It was a long surgery but there was no choice. I'm not leaving soon.

Let's build up his GoFundMe to keep him housed!

Please chip in what you can, folks!
