So...just today a local bakery targeted a friend of mine because of her profile Pic on Facebook. All she mentioned on the baker's page was that she'd like a certain type of bread. They called out her Pic frame (which was anti-ice) and went on a tirade. We are reported it. Facebook said it was ok.

The cost of building a new hospital is about $100 million.
We're dropping the equivalent of 10 hospitals a day on Iran.
Trump decided this war was a better use of taxpayer money than giving Americans health care. It’s not.

Apropos of SecDef's remarks this morning:
Denial of quarter—even the declaration of no quarter—is a war crime.
And recognized as such by the US Government.
From DoD's Manual for Military Commissions.

Search-and-rescue crews were “flying blind” trying to rescue survivors from deadly tornadoes that hit the Midwest last week.
Why? Because Kristi Noem hadn't approved FEMA’s $200,000 contract with a tornado-tracking tool.
But she had time to spend $220 million on anti-immigrant ads. Priorities.

Raw Story: ICE finally identified a line they crossed that is a bridge too far. ICE Director Todd Lyons admitted that two agents lied that a Minneapolis shooting incident in January was carried out in self-defense and said they could face prosecution.

Recruiter called me about a job that would be a lateral move. Considered it until they asked why I left every position since 2016. For real? Covid happened...everyone was laid off...nobody cares...and you want to replace the current person behind their back. Dirty work = dirty rewards. Karma.

The woman in this video had just had kidney surgery.
NEW: Footage of a US citizen in Chicago being rammed then dragged from her car on her way to work.
Abducted, with no warrant, her family couldn’t find her for hours.
She was later released with NO CHARGE.
A DHS statement said she “violently resisted arrest, injuring two officers”.
You decide…

Yep...those endorsements were toxic...should from now on be the play list for rest of the Trump Tenure, but I wouldn't want to smudge a specific singer like that, so if anyone else is creative enough to rewrite it for the orange man for SNL...
FUN FACT:
My favorite part of tonight's election results is that all three of the major trump endorsements (Ciattarelli, Miyares, and Cuomo) LOST bigly.
And trump handed out 53 down-ballot endorsements in New Jersey and Virginia. THEY ALL LOST.
Every. Last. One.

A couple of months ago I was required to re-register to vote. No idea why. I haven't moved. That's ok. I registered republican. I like to vote in primaries in a closed state. I also like games. 🙂

FUN FACT:
If Kamala was POTUS right now,
NONE of our trade or diplomatic relations would be up in smoke.
NONE of our farms and agribusiness would be going belly up.
NONE of the soft power we used to get great trade opportunities would have dried up.
All of this was avoidable.

Every once in a while I tell people from other countries about how the health insurance system works in the US and they are aghast. Yesterday a guy straight up didn’t believe me when I said people can die because of not being able to afford medicine. He was sure I meant in the distant past.

This is what DeSantis has done to our state. It will keep getting worse.
Where are the red Make America Great Again hats out in the fields? You know, the same people who swore immigrants were “taking their jobs.”
Keep snatching hard-working folks who are just trying to support their families and don’t be shocked when this becomes the new norm.
