Officially retired and tired of hearing people use my first name as a derogatory. Looking for sanity and civil discourse, though humor is appreciated, and it seems difficult to find elsewhere. Former single cat lady, his name was Oscar. I stand with 🇺🇦🇺🇸🇺🇦

Not great that people like Micah Beckwith are in positions of power but don’t understand how our constitution works, and are arrogant in their ignorance.
There’s a world of difference between not knowing how the Constitution works and knowingly not following the Constitution. I don’t for one minute believe they don’t know. I believe they are knowingly trying to change the interpretation of it to suit their narrative. Orwellian as it is.

How to buy yourself a needy malignant narcissist? Just offer him a phony, made up "Peace Prize" & he's all your's!!!
No need for a formal ceremony as he'll snatch from the box & put it on all by himself. Both laughably pathetic AND pathetically laughable. 🤡 🫣

A Utah judge Friday refused to halt her landmark ruling that struck down the GOP-led legislature’s gerrymander. The decision means the court-ordered, fairer map — which gives Democratic and independent voters a meaningful chance at representation — remains on track for the 2026 elections.

Funny how it’s primarily the women he’s alienated. All while claiming ignorance of the bills they put forward.
“The confluence is weakened political power by Trump, the result from the elections in New Jersey, New York, and Virginia, and people getting anxious about the election,” a senior House GOP lawmaker told NBC.
The shutdown only exacerbated the effect, leaving Johnson with “friction” from his caucus.

“Groceries are down!” Coming from a man who can afford to spend $4000.00 a bottle on the wine he serves at his Great Gadsby party!
Trump promised to help American families. It was just more BS to get elected.
Now he's denying what affordability is as if it's a dem hoax.
He's either cruel or an idiot, probably both.

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market.
Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today.
Four giants control 80% of meat processing.
The evidence of corporate consolidation is everywhere.
It means more power for them and less freedom for you.

Netflix's $83 billion takeover of Warner Bros Discovery would mean more corporate consolidation.
Netflix, by far the #1 streamer, would take over HBO Max, the #3 streaming service.
This giant merger could violate antitrust law and hurt consumers.
