Red Skelton was a great comic. We used to watch his show with our parents. So many laughs. I especially loved his pantomime sketches. 🙂

The guy in the helmet tried to shield the Pastor, who was PRAYING. Everyone should wear bike #helmets to protests now. Seriously. Could save you a concussion from being thrown to the ground or hit in the head. #Violence is being used against Americans peacefully protesting. 📎❌👑

Speaker Mike Johnson’s refusal to seat Congresswoman Adelita Grijalva is more than the Epstein files, and a dangerous test of whether election results still guarantee representation. My latest

If the Senators were not going to insist Bondi answer their questions, why ask her anything? She didn't answer the questions AT ALL. Can't she be held on contempt for refusing to answer?
