earlier tonight i was sloppy, dimwitted, and unintentionally rude to someone i admire. Their response was temperate and reasonable, making something positive out of my negative.

i just want to again openly apologize, thank the person for their patience, and try to be better now.
1) tragic. Violence is always tragic. Hope the National Guard members recover.

2) why did Kash Patel just embarrass himself on national television?

Things #DOGE stole:

our data
our tax dollars
our domestic security
our international humanity
our most best government workers

Bye bye, “DOGE”.

It no longer exists as a “centralized entity”, according to the Office of Personnel Management.

Love how this morning’s headlines read “ #NYC Mayor-Elect Mamdani Stands By His Criticism of [ #POTUS ]…”

…in front of us all!

It’s on tape!

Wish the reporter had replied with “I’m sorry, did you say ‘Bubba’?”
The president literally called a reporter “Piggy” this weekend but members of Congress can’t call him a felon. K. 🙃
