I'm really starting to wonder if it's true, that Trump has been a Russian asset for many years, as I've been reading recently. He's incredibly stupid, yet he craves adulation above all else. It would be extremely easy for them to stroke his ego, and get him to do any bidding they wanted. Shudder.

That's wonderful! Grassroots efforts are so important! Thanks for the idea.

God bless you Mary. As I'm writing this I'm watching your show, which is another thing that keeps me sane. I appreciate your intelligence, forthrightness, and I grimace with you at the horror. But you have beautiful things too! Your guitar, flowers, the sunny window. Thank you for it all!

So sad. I would not be surprised to see public executions. The Magas are thirsty for doing away with the "libtards", and if Trump celebrated that, they would too.

I agree, but how? We've all fought so hard, and it feels hopeless. I want to fight, I just seriously don't know how.

It makes me sick how people still worship Trump and Elon, and feel they can do no wrong. I'm horrified that our founding fathers sacrifices are in vain. So tragic.

Hmm, Elon obviously can't take the heat! Like Trump, his enormous ego is fragile and he can't handle the tiniest negativity. What a weird guy!

So Vance wants him to be free to have him destroy our lives instead. Got it!

It's about time! While I appreciate his idealism in wanting to work across the aisle, there's no room for compromising with evil!

Oops I changed what I was writing, and didn't correct my sentence. I started to write that he may as well turn Maga and be done with it, then I changed it to him being a wolf in sheep's clothing. I don't think he's Maga? Yet 😓

Yup! I quit following him, and subscribing to his newsletter. He may as well turned into a wolf in sheep's clothing!

I was at a restaurant two days ago, and a guy at the bar was talking loudly about wanting to see migrants getting shot at the border, live streamed. The bartender laughed, and said they needed to have the news on. Last time I give them my business! So sick of the zero empathy, HS bully mentality!

I just sent a message! What a crazy thing, to fire her...instead of avoiding controversy, which I'm guessing they wanted to do, they made clear that they stand on the Nazi side of history, and in the present tense. I hope they will reinstate her!

Absolutely! I don't know if it's willful ignorance or stupidity!

I am physically sick thinking of what will happen! Instead of us being a nation that cares about all of its citizens, we are becoming a nation where the working class will struggle even more, while oligarchs will get inordinately richer. And people actually voted for this! Crazy and stupid!

I love her ears! I'm going to guess she can hear a lot of things that others can't. 🤔 Thanks Clyde, Gracie, and your servant George, for lightening the mood for us all! ❤️

I'm so sorry Eric! What you and others have gone through is shocking and devastating beyond belief. Prayers for you all, and I hope it won't take long before you can create new memories, in a new home!

Apparently the Brits as well, a fine gentleman showed me this earlier today. Perhaps (as he believes) the start of a bigger movement?

Too late. I was trying to hold onto my subscription, but I finally cancelled it. If they're protecting Bezos, how much more will they protect Trump?
