Living in NC, after 40 years years in the Midwest ( IA, IN and OH). Retired manager from a large international company. Taught organizational theory for 10 years. Cat lady. Started out as a Republican, then independent, now Democrat.
The US has blown up 23 "drug boats".
Trump says every boat represents 25,000 overdose lives saved, so that's 575,000 lives saved so far in his presidency! WOW!

Let's say we lose 100,000 people to drug OD's per year (last year it was 80,000). We won't have ANY drug deaths for 5 3/4 years.

About the rumor that Trump wears a catheter: when was the last picture of him in shorts?

I completely disregard the White House's statements about Trumps health, weight, medications, or mental acuity.

Know why Trump wants his Big Bill? He doesn't care about deficits.

Too much debt? Be like Trump, Inc and declare bankruptcy. He'll try the same strategy with the US government.

This bill must be stopped.

Trump wants Biden to be painted as incompetent so the pardons are declared invalid. DON'T LET IT HAPPEN.

Joe's memory is slower than it used to be, but his reasoning is sound. Lots of people run for president who can't be elected - it doesn't mean they're incompetent.

If all this manufacturing is going to spring back into the US, who's going to fill those jobs? They're not all skilled manufacturing. Those jobs in Bangladesh and Vietnam pay pennies, because the products are low value. So Trump is increasing minimum wage jobs in the US? Swell.

I wonder if Mitch McConnell regrets giving Trump a pass when he had the chance to impeach him.

Nah, he's found some justification, but what a lost opportunity. But the leopard is eating his face.

Explain me this:

If the Signal chat had no classified information, why did they use Signal? Why not group text or email?

Question for you smart people:

If Europe supplies Ukraine with the money to buy American weapons, does that give him leave to fire them wherever he wants?

Biden put restrictions on firing into Russia. Those would go away?

Tariffs on, tariffs off...on...off...

Perfect scenario for insider trading.

Anyone have access to Trump and his peeps' brokerage records?

Senate needs to respond to mass firings of Jan 6 attack prosecutors by rejecting Trump nominees. Have a spine and stand up to this autocratic effort to rewrite history and embolden political violence. Block Bondi and Patel.

So Trump wants to eliminate FEMA and turn over disaster response to the states.

That was the same strategy he promoted during COVID, and it left states competing for resources.

This seems to be Trump's main MO: if it's hard, turn it over to the states. It comes from incompetence.

The US should consider merging with Canada. They have 10 provinces and 3 territories, each of which could become a state. We'd have to negotiate for their health care system to be adopted throughout the US. I'm not sure what they'd want from us.

Listening to Chris Sununu on CNN. He says Musk's conflicts of interest don't matter because he's so rich, he doesn't need the money he could accrue from conflicts.

Good to know that when you get rich enough, your greed disappears.

Never knew a weasel could also be so naive.

Also a good day for a 3 Stooges marathon.
We need to make Good Trouble on Monday, Jan 20th, for Trump’s inauguration. I propose volunteer work, peaceful protesting and holding community space all while participating in a complete media blackout of the inauguration.

Here's Trump directly claiming Mexico will begin stopping migrants "immediately," even though it's already been happening. Indeed, it's partly responsible for the drop in crossings.

As I argue in that piece, you can read entire articles about Trump/Mexico mess that don't tell you this basic fact.

Joe needs to pardon Hunter. He also needs to pardon all the members of Jack Smith’s team. I don’t think they did anything wrong, but it might save them from being investigated.
