They don’t need one. They’re doing our Lords’ work (Not The Lord’s work). These guys…

Not really. Ignorance of the law isn’t a defense. Especially when you have passed the Bar, in Florida. Even if that’s a LOW BAR.

You mean this sign? That’s why there aren’t too many of them here.

Oh, and it was a part of Spain for the longest time. There are residents of California whose families have been there all of this time, too. This IS where they come from.

It’s less of a “Trade War” than Trade Kobuki Theatre.

Remember that Republicans are great champions of state’s rights, until they want to trample them.

I remember, in the Northridge quake, one brick building in the Santa Monica area fell down. The news media warmed it. They made it look like the city was coming to an end. Lol same bullshit different day.

Wait? Pam Bondi doesn’t understand federal law? That’s shocking, I tell you! Shocking!

He was there to fulfill the revenge on FDR’s New Deal. this is why the GOP has been trying to blow holes in the social safety unit through most of the 20th and 21st centuries. In the next installment, you meet the even darker people who were successful because of what R.K. set up.

These are the people who fund him. Outspent Musk on Trump.
You’ve never heard of them? It’s by design. In Part III, we meet the next capo of the Mellon family.

We’re fifty, sixty years late to the resistance. We win a few years? We celebrate. They recalibrate, and come back at us again.

Meet the people who created the Heritage Foundation, and the decades of regressive chaos to drag us back to where the rich are richer, and those of us who aren’t useful are dead.

The remainder of it would be for the Republicans. 172 million covered Trump.

The Mellons have been giving money to turn this country upside down in earnest since the 1960s. Adjusted for inflation, it is in at least the many billions.

Why do the 1% undermine the social safety net? Programs to keep us healthy? Prevent pandemics?

We tend to fight the symptoms. Not the cause. Or understand why this is being done. Musk was only third in Trump giving. No. 1 is our problem.

They got the wrong time. She was dropping the kids off at the Silverman bar mitzvah, which followed the wedding.

That’s because we’re still in the clutches of the same 1% families clawing away at the New Deal as they always have.

If they could fire everyone over at MTP, and put, in writing, that they weren’t going to Todd/Welkerize him, he could maaaaybe turn Meet the Press around to Russert days.

I wrote this in 2017. Seems like the more things change the more they stay the same. We don’t fix the problems. We wish that they go away and they get worse

Isn’t it ironic that the maggots have been using Putin Pedo nonsense against Biden, when the the Koolaid King was an Epstein associate?

We can’t blame musk. He was only third in giving this year for Trump. You can blame the ones at the top though they’ve been at this for close to 90 years. We think we’re making progress but they’re pulling the tide back every time.

ICE and HSI are not trained to be engaging with public protest. They can create situations that will get either protesters or them killed. Or injured in this country we don’t wear masks when we engage with the public. that is what you do in a banana republic.

Of course it’s silly. They’re about breaking down easy global transit, and open borders, to make sure that they can seal ours, to prevent climate refugees from flooding the US, in a shrinking number of years from now.
