The network news tonight praised Marco Rubio for the many positions he has held. The newsman, in glowing terms, described Rubio as the ultimate “Florida man”. Does Rubio understand that “Florida man”is the ultimate humorous insult, as in “Florida man goes skinny dipping in alligator infested pond.”

Rubio says Trump has the “optionality” to occupy Venezuela. He’s hoping to get his Nobel Peace Prize back from that woman.

Venezuela needs to retaliate and kidnap our president.

We turned on the TV Christmas evening to watch the local news. Imagine my horror when I saw that the male anchor was wearing JD Vance facial hair. I know that the staff with least seniority have to work the biggest holidays but I certainly hope we won’t be seeing this guy again!

We started watching the Netflix reruns of West Wing last night. It’s a wonderful antidote for real life right now.

Department of Defense Law of War Manual, Sec. 18.3.2.1 states the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders.

What’s its key example? Wait for it . . . It’s "orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."

Visitor in my outdoor shower. They’re considered non-aggressive but this guy was not intimidated. Kept sliding toward me until I closed the bathroom door.

What is the justification for the State of Texas taking over the Fort Worth independent School District?

So Trump is finally getting serious about weight loss. He plans to do it with drugs rather than exercise and fewer Big Macs. (In case you missed it, he’s lowering the cost of weight loss drugs.)

Florida governor DeSantis has refused to declare a state of emergency over the loss of SNAP but threatens retaliation against New Yorkers if they elect Mamdani.

They don’t want pot smokers to have guns. What about beer drinkers?

I really liked it when people honked and waved today as they passed our rally. I especially liked it when the big rig drivers showed support because they’re essential to our way of life.

Have you noticed that anything described as”big beautiful” is more crap from Trump?

The best thing that could happen to the liberals is for the right wing to declare war on the NFL.

Can a state call up its own national guard to defend itself against national guards from other states?

Wow, the trumpets think they can take on the NFL and win! Can you imagine what would happen if they tried to cancel the broadcast?
