Husband, father, natural philosopher, and now grey child of the Pacific Coast. My old man once said that civilization ends east of US-395, and I am grateful he is no longer alive to see just how true that statement was.

For the record, I really do not get the 'follow back' thing, or why anyone would follow me. My opinions are my own, and much of what I include in my replies is easily found online. Since I use my home feed to skim the news and events, I generally limit my follows to experts and news feeds.

Inflation eating up worker pay. Household debt and student loan defaults at a record high. Credit card debt at a near record high. 8 million people have lost healthcare the past year. 5 million people have lost food stamps — including 2 million children. And this is what he's thinking about?

Smart move, Katie! You can't get disbarred if you never passed.

Katie Zacharia on failing the bar exam: "We just said, 'I'll take the bar and see what happens.' The results are somewhat inconsequential because I knew I wouldn't need the bar in China." (She spent years lying that she's an attorney!)

Trump: "The greatest ballroom ever built -- it's also a tremendous military complex with a drone port on top. Be careful. Don't fall over the edge. And only a Hispanic could survive that fall."

OTD in 1938 Hitler gave a speech demanding the Sudetenland be handed to Germany. He said his countrymen were being mistreated and needed protection. Also promised it was his last territorial demand. He was lying. Imagine that happening today.

From 16,000 to 185 to Zero. The Trump admin claimed as many as 16,000 noncitizens had been registered to vote in Nevada. Then DHS came back and said the number was actually 185. This week, Nevada told the admin every single person on the list was a lawful citizen.

Please share the post below and donate if you can. These excavators save so many Ukrainian lives at a very efficient cost.

Unfortunately excavators are also high value targets for russian drone operators and artillery crews. Donation link: givebutter.com/liberty-engi...

Thousands of protesters gathered around the Kennedy Center on Friday night to showcase the obscured marble facade that remains concealed and protest Trump’s threats to destroy the building further. Just watch these beautiful people chanting: “KEEP YOUR TINY HANDS OFF!” 🩷

Step 1: Close the Straits of Hormuz by starting a war with Iran Step 2: Start an entirely delusional trade war with our largest foreign supplier of oil -- Canada. Step 3: Post blatant lies in a transparent attempt to shift the blame to Biden, Zelenskyy, the Illuminati, Antifa --- ANYONE ELSE. 🍑🤡

🚨IT BEGINS: Costco is now rationing Kirkland motor oil. A 10-quart pack that once cost as little as $30 is now nearly $58, and members are limited to two every seven days due to the impacts of the Iran War.

A 40-year-old unvaccinated woman in Pennsylvania has just died from measles. There is no controversy. She needlessly died from a disease that is preventable with a vaccine. But HHS Secretary RFK Jr. thinks measles isn’t that bad. Nobody should die of measles in the United States.
