I should introduce myself since my bio is short. I’m a SharePoint Administrator, mother of two adult children, a dog, and a cat. My job has taken me around the world and I know that there is no greater country than the one we live in. I’ll do what I can to protect our Democracy, in my small way.

I’m old enough to remember when CBS News would never have surrendered to a demagogic president or any other politician. Remember Edward R. Murrow?

“A host on CNN called my father a piece of shit.”
Eric dearest this should come as no surprise to you but your father processes no morals, no conscience, no modesty, and not one single redeeming quality.
So calling your dad a piece of shit is essentially one of his better qualities.

EXPLANATION: The DOJ is engaging in a sloppy, ham-fisted coverup to protect rich pedophiles. That's why the files went missing.

WOW: The DOJ has DELETED an image from its release of the Epstein files that shows photos of Trump in a drawer.
Yesterday, we noted that this image — file 468 — likely slipped through the cracks while officials were attempting to hide materials pertaining to Trump.
Now, it’s gone.

Nobody gives a shit if Bill Clinton is in the Epstein Files because we’re not in a Bill Clinton cult wearing Bill Clinton hats getting Bill Clinton tattoos and flying Bill Clinton flags.

This is the worst case scenario that everybody was worried about
It is utterly catastrophic that RFK Jr. plans to end CDC recommendations for most childhood vaccines.
It’s a betrayal of science, ethics, compassion, and the people of the United States.
And it was also a specific goal of Project 2025 (page 254).

When they wanted to release the files early this year, they paid $1M in overtime and put 1000 people on it - until they realized what was in the files. Now they’re slow walking the release.
