Just completed my move back “home.” After 20 years away. First thing that stood out to me from DC to where I am now is reverse sticker price. Took the family out and had a few beers, wine and food for all. Was like $60. In DC it would be $175

This is too concerning & too plausible with this administration to ignore. I hope I am wrong, but this needs to be investigated. They will not come clean & would love to keep the story where it is. Which is enough to make most vomit but it may be soooo much worse. #Politics #RussiaHasUsByTheBalls

How about that for a thought, huh? 🤔 …”Representative Delia Ramirez told Axios her constituents have “passionately” said they’re unhappy with Democratic leadership.” No shit. #Politics

It’s hard to watch what is going on in this nation & with the federal government right now. Words don’t begin to describe what I & so many have felt & in some cases seen. I left home in 2006 to join the #USMC. I served on active duty for over 8 years. When an injury sustained in Afghanistan…

I grew up poor. I am white. I got help along the way because I am white. I got the benefit of the doubt that others don’t but deserve. I proved it’s the right thing to do based on my life & giving back when afforded the ability to do so. Invest in those “below” us. It’ll help you!

“Nasruddin Amer, deputy head of the Houthi media office, said the airstrikes won’t deter them and they would retaliate against the U.S. “Sanaa will remain Gaza’s shield and support and will not abandon it no matter the challenges,” he added on social media.” #Politics

It does leave us/leftist at a disagreement/crossroads (for some of us). But let’s not get distracted from the real goal & purpose of what we believe. As I tell my kids “our disagreement now is a small thing, stay focused on the big things.” We can’t fracture. It makes their mission easier.
