I mostly share people smarter & more articulate than I. Sarcasm & inappropriate humor likely. Music helps me remain sane in a world that is not. Peace.

Issa is such a douche nozzle.
After Prop. 50, San Diego may lose its only Republican in Congress as Democrats target Issa. From our partner @calmatters.org. inewsource.org/2025/11/24/s...
San Diego Democrats line up to challenge Issa after Prop 50
The new map could lead to the lone Republican seat in San Diego – the 48th District represented by Darrell Issa – flipping to the Democrats.
