Unbelievable, my daughter called me a 'heterophobe' today because I preferred 'Heated Rivalry' to 'Off Campus'. Wonder she didn't call me ageist as well, I did comment as to the apparent ages of the OC actors. Love her to bits and she may be right.

We went from "armed gunman mere seconds away from shooting the president is killed by Secret Service" to "guy with a shotgun falls down on a different floor well outside the entrance of the ballroom and we can't find the bullets because that just happens sometimes" awfully fast.

As war-related inflation continues to surge, consumer confidence has hit a record all-time low.

But corporate America is doing better than ever.

This is what a two-tiered economy looks like.

If you were horrified watching elected leaders run & scramble because of gun violence, just imagine how my daughter Jaime felt in school running from an active shooter before she was killed.

Now, become a part of the solution & only vote for people determined to address gun violence in America.

We’ve become way too inured to the constant violence because of all of the people in power who revel in it. What a joyless, artless, sexless, rudderless country we became so fast.

Pete Hegseth removed 4 decorated Army officers—2 Black, 2 women—from a promotion list. The Army Secretary refused, calling their records exemplary. Hegseth overrode it. Possibly illegally. They gave decades to this country. He erased them & called it meritocracy.
This is white Christian nationalism.
