I am thankful for my Grandma who let me dance across her floor from the kitchen, through the dining room, into the living room, & back again. She could have told me to sit down and be quiet.

She said, “This must be how they dance in heaven.”

I remember her & that afternoon like it was yesterday.

I’ve never seen a grown man pout like Trump did today when the Canadian Prime Minister told him “No,” Canada isn’t for sale. He pouted like a toddler pouts. I half expected to see tears come down his orange cheeks or for him to stomp his feet. That he is president still baffles me.

Tomorrow is the day to celebrate!
It’s the day Christians celebrate Jesus’
resurrection from death to life.

And because He is risen, we who
repent and believe in Him can expect
to live with Him in heaven for eternity!

I think the US government has depended less on the principles and safeguards of the Constitution than it has on the quality of its leaders. Freedom reigned b/c leaders honored the principles of the Constitution.

All it takes is one man with no honor & a party of like-minded supporters to break it.

“…backed by the full faith and credit of the United States.” That used to give creditors assurance that U. S. Treasuries were a safe buy.

No more. Countries holding Treasuries are offloading them. If you are concerned about anything in the market, be concerned about the bond market.

The Social Security Administration has already cut 7,000 jobs.

As a result, its website is crashing. Phone lines are overwhelmed. Beneficiaries can't get service.

What is DOGE recommending now? More layoffs. 

Let it be known that Trump is effectively cutting Social Security.

Reminder: Dr. Oz had to pay $5.25 million to settle a class action suit for promoting phony weight loss cures.

He is a conman. No wonder Trump likes him.

Now he's in charge of running Medicare and Medicaid.

Burn it all to the ground and buy up the land and water and minerals at rock bottom prices.

This a fire sale for the oligarchy.

How do I know? They’ve already done it to rural America…

It's not a bad idea to go to the local Walmart or big box retailer and buy lots of consumables now. From toothpaste to soap, anything you can find storage space for, buy before they have to replenish inventory.

Even if it's made in the USA , they will jack up the price and blame it on tariffs.

Today's stock market crash was the worst since the Spring of 2020.

Can you guess who was president during *both* crashes? I bet you can!
