I know it's not available on either of the two major app stores because once again they bowed to the king. Im sure a sade workaround will be found. Until then, car horns, pots, pans, air horns, and megaphones.

At least she could have been a little more original in her deflections " blah blah blah as much as you hate Donald Trump!" Yawn

Could it be the conservative leaning,pro Israel, Murdoch wannabe Axel Springer? Another rich power-hungry, solipsistic billionaire.

Which is going to happen. Kushner has had the plans since 2020.

I will admit after reading them aloud to my daughter for the 7,643 time, I was tempted to burn them. No worries my granddaughter has them.

With the cost of beef and chicken skyrocketing perhaps horsemeat is how DJT thinks he may appeal to a hungry, carnivorous base.

This was after a judge in Oregon blocked the use of Oregon's National Guard.

Spent my teenage years in Somers. Turned 18 back to the Bronx. It was too white bread for me. Lawler's people.

At my Church it depends who is saying Mass. We had the misogynist as i refer to him today. Instead they need to be screaming how Christ was a POC, an immigrant, and a refugee. He was homeless.

They have no concept of actual history or even what is actually said in the Bible. I doubt DJT stayed awake thru an entire history lesson. Not a single one of them is a person of reason.

Follow the money. Who benefits if this were to be sold and made into luxury condos. I'll hive you a hint Jared Kushner was on that trail.

Do you all see how the first person up in ICE's face is a woman and she is relentless. I see a crowd of men with cameras out. Another woman kicks the zip cuffs out of the way
It takes time for men to begin to engage. Damn it's going to be women who save our country.

Was that the meeting in Somers?
