Liberal boomer whose bleeding heart is now breaking for what is about to happen to our beloved country and her people. Left that other place over a year ago. Glad I found so many like minded folks again.

Why is Trump the first sitting president to attend a Super Bowl?
Because all the presidents before him realized it would be extraordinarily wasteful to spend 15-20 MILLION of our taxpayer dollars to go in person.

This week, at least three presidential nominees were caught lying under oath. But curious minds want to know: Is that still a thing? Does anybody care? Or is that just one more once-upon-a-time disqualifying thing that we shrug off… because Trump?

when you have anti-DEI proponents openly going after black military officers for recruiting from HBCUs and suing schools for their black and Hispanic enrollment *even after the schools ended any racial preferences* then the only honest label for these people is "segregationist"
I genuinely think we should start calling businesses and schools falling to the anti-DEI movement “segregationists” because they are re-segregating. And earlier rounds of segregationists *also* explained their preferred policy in race-neutral terms (“state’s rights” and “freedom of association”).

For many of the self-serving, discriminatory, profiteering narcissists supporting America's incoming government, Christianity isn't a spiritual path, it's a tribal banner. They'd chase Jesus off their property with a rifle if he came to their doors. I'm atheist, and live more by Christ's teachings

Helpful tip:
If you voted for a guy who openly stole $ from Americans w/a scam online University...
...you don't ever get to complain to the rest of us about 'respecting our laws.'
Now sit down, and wait for the billionaires to care about you.
