A reminder before he’s sworn in: Border crossings are way down, deportations are way up, domestic energy production is the greatest it’s ever been, and the American economy has been kicking butt for three years.
No matter how much he lies, he’s inheriting a very strong America.

Dear Carrie Underwood,
As a woman and professed follower of Jesus, exactly how do you make sense of using your tremendous gifts to celebrate an adjudicated rapist, a man accused by dozens of women of assault, harassment, and misconduct?

It's virtually impossible to simultaneously claim alignment with Trump—and with a table where equality, diversity, and empathy all get seats.

The best thing you can do is starve Meta for revenue. Never click on or buy anything through their ads. Never pay for an ad to sell a product or advertise an event. Never do anything again that will put one cent in Mark Zuckerberg's pocket!

The bottom half of America? It holds just 6%.

They neglected to predict the actual genesis of this great national decimation.

2024 was the first general election for AL Sec of State Allen and we saw the lowest voter turnout in 36 years, yet he refuses to support a bill that would make it easier for folks to vote and thus increase turnout. Great job Wes! www.al.com/news/2024/11...
