I was born... oh. No quoting from "The Jerk".

I am a 🧠 damaged bi-polar, and PTSD Red-Headed Step Child (RHSC) US Army Veteran (i.e., Peacetime).

Nix the DMs.
Odds?

After consulting the Magic 8 Ball?

The Odds Are Against U?

Bad news and rough seas ahead.

The Senate

Invited a panel of witnesses to discuss the question “Is the Current VA Disability System Keeping Its Promise?”

I know...

My future...

The end game isn't pretty...

I do not fear the future because I am still angry.

The 🎁 present?

When the Trump Administration finally historical ranking beats the Grant Administration in a race to the bottom...

And digs a hole to China...

I will carpe diem to my end.

James Thurber, b.1894, Columbus, OH.

"Let us not look back in anger, nor forward in fear, but around in awareness."

Unfortunately, I look back in anger.

My 20/20 hindsight shows me the moment I got crippled when I was 26 years old.

And who was responsible.

Should I be less than angry?

6 x 6 x 4

The stupid will inherit the 🌎 Earth in plots of those measurements.

The ❓ question?

Who will they drag down to an early 🪦 grave to keep them company?

The Trump Administration's answer seems to be: "All Y'all."

Next time, if you want to vote smart...

Vote for a ♀️ 👠 woman.

The Admiral...

Will retire...

Accept the blame...

And be on three Tech Bros Boards of Directors a week later.

The World 🌎 will continue spinning on it's axis just like the Trump Administration.

Unaware?

I am unaware of any law or regulation that requires the release of health information to a private or government employer.

If you report any serious disability, you find gainful employment difficult to obtain.

In Any Other?

Administration... I would hide my disability and under report it.

In this Administration, I would lie like a rug.

Never report a disability if you can avoud it.

Nope?

To end the war in Ukraine, the Corrupt Family and Friends would have to get jobs?

Do good works?

I think Ukraine would be better served if they offered Don Jr. some beach ⛱️ property in the Crimea?

Swift Boat

The Republicans have been f#$&ed up for a long time.

Al Gore goes to Vietnam.

President Don J Trump dodges the draft with a Doctor who owed his Father and a bone spur claim that doesn't pass the smell test?

Repubs need to find their honor...

Or have some Vet explain Honor.
