64% of Americans oppose Trump’s promise to pardon January 6th protesters.
You know the ones we watched that day beat the hell out of the police and break into the U.S. Capitol. Place a Trump flag above the American flag.
The ones that put a felon over their own country.
Them!

How is Ohio Republican Party's new transgender bathroom ban going to be enforced? — Will everyone be forced to show their genitalia at the door?
Bill mandates schools & universities MUST have separate bathrooms for males & females — Offering only unisex bathrooms is now illegal.

I didn't want to spend $750 on a vacuum seeder. So I designed one that can be made on a 3d printer for $5.

Sorry, but I reject the premise. As a Musk biographer I refuse to adopt the fraudulent submission—even as a rhetorical exercise—that Musk has any interest in cutting waste.
His goal is power, influence, media coverage, and most of all vengeance—he wants to hurt his regulators and so-called wokeism.

Will the TWO heads of the NEW "Department of Government Efficiency" take a critical look at the department that has failed spending audits for the last 6 years?
