"A well-regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State.." Not sure why this keeps bouncing around in my brain. Years of debate about the true interpretation of the 2nd Amendment, I guess. After yesterday's firings, I fear the security of a free State is about to be breached.

Sharing more townhall videos today because they’re giving me hope. THIS is good trouble! Who is this man? I want to shake his hand and buy him a drink.

You'd think they were a little bit better educated. Even a cursory skimming of your basic history book tells you the starving masses will rise up and, yep..heads will roll. The thing is, the middle class is gonna be very unhappy very soon, too. Might wanna reread that well-armed militia bit in 2A.

Looking forward to hearing more about how "tightening our belts" is going over in the military community. These people leave their loved ones waiting at home, sacrificing their lives every day for us, for other countries and their citizens around the world. They deserve the best we can offer them.

I still have some Trump voters on FB. In the first couple of weeks when his sharpie pen flew across the pages, there was still pushback that this was all about curbing that "wasteful spending". For the last week or so?...crickets. Ima thinkin' they feelin' dat pain real up close and personal now 🫣

Is something going on with this platform? This is a screenshot of what is "trending" on my page access. Almost everything I have done here has to do with politics. Whuzzup Bluesky?

The AfD is a neo-Nazi party. The Vice-President of the United States met with the leader of the AfD after his speech in Munich. The AfD is a neo-Nazi party. Elon Musk openly supports it and is campaigning in Germany for the upcoming election for them. The AfD is a neo-Nazi party.
