'X'pat. I share a lot of posts because those I follow are kindred. More often than not, their thoughts I agree with and promote.

Filters are off. I'm going to be a potty mouth over the next four years. At my age, I've both earned the right and no longer give a fuck.

I think we are going to have a Democratic-controlled Senate.
And all we will need for the leadership of that Democratic Senate to do is hold actual, real, impeachment trials.
As the Constitution requires.
Not the bullshit fake trials like the ones that the Senate held in 2020 and 2021...

Trampling on the First Amendment is the new flavor of hate for assholes like him. I wouldn't be surprised if he's back on the job soon.
UPDATE: @rooster.info says this assistant professor @OhioState has been SUSPENDED for attacking this journalist who was there to ask about Les Wexner’s ties to Epstein
That was fast!
Again: in a department about “intellectual diversity” conservatives pushed onto campus🤔🙃

NEW: A page from Bondi's burn book. This is a list of the searches by Rep Jayapal of the unredacted Epstein files. That means the DOJ grabbed her search terms from the computers they set up for members of congress to view the Epstein files to use as ammunition. The photo is from Reuters.

If an increasing unpopular leader, known for shaping reality w/ lies, wanted to subvert democracy, would they: A) complain that the polls are “fake news”, B) threaten polling organizations into silence, C) sow distrust in election results, or D) find ways to disenfranchise voters of the other party?
Gallup announces, after 88 years, it will no longer track public approval of presidents. Trump's second-term approval rating fell to 36% in December, among the lowest ever recorded by the company. The president repeatedly has threatened to sue media and polling firms that portray him negatively.

Trump and his MAGA cronies are trying to illegally and unilaterally take money out of the climate bank that I worked to pass into law. The Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund was investing in clean, cheap energy to lower your bills. The courts must stop this brazen heist now.
