Troops leaked photos of their wrecked bases to
CBS, saying they're "standing there with our eyes closed getting punched in the face"

One soldier's words: "We're not defending these bases. We're just watching them get destroyed."

I just got back from the village post office, want to mail our absentee ballot applications. France apparently is not allowing any mail to be sent to the USA. I had heard that a couple of months ago but didn't believe it. Are there any Americans here living in France with a solution to this?

So basically Trump announced yesterday that Putin and Zelenskyy agreed to stop bombing energy infrastructure without actually ever talking to Putin and Zelenskyy about that.

PabloReports: Donald Trump keeps saying we are in a golden age. Do you agree?

Massie: You need gold to buy diesel now, so maybe it is the golden age.

Halfway through September and my green beans are finally starting to produce. And the tomatoes are still going nuts. I put 5 kilos in the freezer this morning, went outside and picked these, plus the pile I gave the neighbors. Normally in France our tomato plants are dying by now.

If sheeran had any balls, he would’ve canceled on the us venues banning him and gone on an acoustic pub tour with Macklemore and have Macklemore say whatever the fuck he wanted

Then he could look back on this in 10 years with pride and not shame

In our family we were mercilessly teased if we couldn't ace the driver's test the first time. Even more so if we hit the curb while parallel parking…

Blue States are the donor States for federal taxes, and Red States ride our wave as TAKER States

Do we need any more proof of who has the Trump-Krasnov family in their grip?

The amount of Amazon workers relying on SNAP and Medicaid has nearly tripled since 2020. — while Amazon’s annual profits soared by over 550%.

It’s the same story everywhere: corporate profits are at record highs, while workers’ share of the economy is at a record low.

We must unrig the system.

I'm turning the old pig barn on our French farmhouse into an outdoor kitchen. On the left in the first pic is the original dirt mortar, on the right is a finished section with lime/silica mortar. The second pic shows the wall ready to mortar with the original dirt mortar removed.

You can tell a lot about someone’s character by how they feel about the government providing free school breakfasts for children.

A pastor for Michael Whatley, the North Carolina GOP Senate nominee, opened with a prayer asking God to bestow "integrity and honesty." It was delivered by Pastor Daimon King, a registered sex offender twice imprisoned for convictions involving children.

Those of us, who keep our mouths shut when we don't know, have a great deal to say.

A theory is an explanation of what causes what and why. Most of the media focuses on the alternative explanations that authorities manufacture to maintain their agenda.
