Aiming to be older & wiser than I was yesterday, everyday.

Just a 50-ish, artsy-ish, opinionated-ish, midwestern gal who is afraid that America may no longer be, if it ever was, the America we thought we had and were all promised.
No worries. I'm not Jewish so I can only speak on behalf of myself and my Jewish family...I can see why you didn't as they usually don't have anything political on them. Even the ones made for weddings and bar/bat mitzvahs have the name(s)/event date on the INSIDE. He insults the tradition. Not you.

they are yarmulkes, or kippahs - traditional head covering for Jewish men. and having his name on them is disgusting.

I am so sorry for your loss, Hal.

Do they expect dead people to call them and tell them they died? That's not corruption, that's bad record keeping. Sounds like the program might need more employees, maybe. And that's also a really low number considering there are 40MM people on SNAP.

In exchange for what?!

he's disconnected from reality because all his information is curated to his liking and he listens to and believes only what he wants to hear, which boils down to "I'm the best at everything". All else is AI, or fake news, or lies, blah, blah, blah - he's so dumb, he falls for his own propaganda.

good lord, I yearn to go back to the time when we thought he may have expired...

In this administration, it not only needs to be asked, it needs to be satisfactorily answered (and DJT failed to do so, again). The jobs numbers affect so many things and, until a few months ago, they could be trusted.

^ I'm also convinced this is why many of them also think it's a choice - because they believe they're 'choosing' to be straight.

I believe you've answered your own question. The hierarchy is truer than reality. No matter what "fact" he's presented with, if it goes against his "known truth", said fact can't possibly *be* true. Ergo, he *can't* be lying. He mustn't sacrifice any of "his truth" (lest it all comes crashing down).

more like: break it; slap it back together with duct tape, chewing gum, false hope and/or lies; claim (sole) victory - then, when it is pointed out that it's still very much broken, blame the last (few) guy(s).

My mother has fallen victim as well. Her current husband turned her onto fox. She used to be a center-left dem, now we hardly speak. She gets sooo mad whenever she argues 'how don't you see [insert fox BS talking point]?!?!' and I throw back "because you raised me better than that!" at her.

HA! This "truck" has twin in Chicago, I saw it a few weeks back whilst stuck in traffic on 90.

policy discussion?? okay, what policy? does the US have a policy that states at a specific date and time the military will deploy specific equipment to attack a specific enemy target? sounds more like a specific plan.

If that's not a 'war plan', why is it so war plan shaped?
