A functioning Congress will have articles of impeachment drafted by the end of the day.
Our Congress will just go to social media to basically say “We don’t like this, but what are you gonna do?”

When America abdicates its role as a defender of freedom and becomes the oppressor, it emboldens dictators everywhere.

I’ve learned not to assume that other guitarists already know what has taken me a lifetime of strumming to learn. My first and simplest piece of advice is to always tune your guitar before playing anything, as soon as you pick it up, tune up. It’s like a pre-flight check for an airplane. Tune first.

Can someone give me a reasonable explanation for ICE. The premise of ICE is enforcement. Why do you need police enforcement? Meaning the premise of your argument is there are too many “illegals” that must be punished. Policing enforcement will always lead to violence. Liberals think it’s acceptable

Kicked off our New Year at an amazing spa. Darted between hot and cold pools and saunas covered in snow. Watched a black squirrel climb a bare tree while cuddling on a circle chaise. Fell asleep holding hands in the infrared lounge. I’m content.
