Happy Obama Day! Real men don't need $100 million ego boosts to put the swagger in their step.

Pass The Buck Trump is never to blame. Like a small child that refuses to admit that they drew on the wall with Crayons, Trump never takes the blame.

Democrats are the party of the people. Republicans are the party of privilege. We're looking at you, Congressman Ron Estes.

This is what happens when a rich schoolyard bully fails up. He has no idea what he's doing. 🤦‍♂️

Let us be clear. Trump owns the blame for the tragedy that was AA 5342. His finger pointing and blame game is reprehensible. DEI is not to blame. A self-serving, self-righteous, grifting criminal in the White House is to blame. 67 lives were lost and families forever changed thanks to felon Trump.

Thank you for your messages of support following the crash of AA 5342 that originated here in Wichita, KS. The community and country have rallied to support the families affected.

We paused our posting in response to the tragedy, but we can wait no longer. Tyranny moves too quickly.

One of the first school shootings performed by a student with intent to commit a mass shooting occurred right here in Sedgwick County, Kansas. It happened in 1985 in Goddard, resulting in the death of Principal James McGee was killed. School safety boards and commissions exist for a reason.
