I used to be tolerant. I am entering my twilight years getting angrier by the day at the mango menace and his group of misogynists running (and ruining) my country.

Always remember that listening to music can be the entire activity. Put on headphones. Blast it through speakers. Close your eyes and just listen.

Listening to music is not a background activity. It can be the entire journey, and it's worth the time.

By the way, the real drug traffickers aren’t on the boats. Those are just mules getting paid a few bucks. Trump doesn’t go after the real kingpins, he either leaves them alone or pardons them.

Every single US politician can be bought. The entire system needs reform.

It’s called MOMENTUM!

DO NOT get complacent! Keep it up the pressure and speaking out! I am proud of everyone who voted and let their voices be heard! What’s important to us is NOT important to them!

IMHO, Little Marco is dumber than I thought. He thought he would be the successor. He now is just seen as another enabler and his political career will never recover after this administration.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 91st day out of the last 103.

12 days of work in 103 days.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.
