So basically Trump’s new rap is that prices are high now and they are likely to get even higher between now and the midterms, but if you vote for them prices will immediately drop like magic after the election and everything will be pretty much free and we will live happily ever after.

NEWS: Houthis just shot down a Saudi F-15 and struck a major oil facility. CENTCOM got caught LYING about an Iranian strike on a tanker full of US troops. And now the Fed's could hike rates because of it.

And that's just the start.

The Jets have suspended Connor Hellebuyck for failing to report to training camp.

This guy is such a p!ece of sh!t eh?! Hope he enjoys his stupid medal of freedom from the p€do in chief.

Tanya thought it was ironic I wore my #climatechange shirt when standing next to a glacier when we hiked on the Lake Ann Trail last July to see Mt. Shuksan in Washington state up close. However, I think everyday we must #ActOnClimate and take #ClimateAction to reduce this dangerous global threat.

I’m so damn tired of people saying that others “pushed” Trump into going to war. The “neocons” pushed him, his “advisors” pushed him, or even Netanyahu pushed Trump into this war. Bullshit. HE is the President. HE has agency. HE decided to go to war. HE launched this war. The buck stops with HIM.
