@OPB
So that's why they aren't responding to massive street racing hijackers or Proud Boy armed rallies. They were pouting over the mandatory vaccinations.

Itโs always good to be back in a fast jet.
Really enjoyed taking the F-16 for a spin at Morris Air National Guard Base, where American pilots are training Ukrainian pilots to use these aircraft in the fight against Putinโs illegal invasion.

FLORIDIANS: It's said Florida D's not voting their numbers. D's now outnumbered by GOP but Independents will determine the race. Every D vote is needed. Take a friend or neighbor and VOTE EARLY to bank your vote. Shock the world and elect CRIST & DEMINGS.

โI put myself through college and got an MBA from NYU and I have zero debt. I hate looking at youth today and seeing them sitting on their behinds and acting like, โUgh, this is so hard.'โ โ George Santos, on a 2020 podcast....the kicker is...

So Sarah Huck-a-bee Sanders says "our freedoms are under attack". Sure thing, by her own damned party.
The GOP are the worst threat to our democracy in our recent history. Lying liars too.

THINGS you wish you'd not done: Doug Mastriano R-PA Gov nominee, apparently wishes he was on the losing side at Gettysburg. Funny that. He wants to lead a Union state by governing as a "Confederate".
He's unapologetic really. Just deny & move on.
Pennsylvanians? What say you!

This Friday's news "dump" (Trump's taxes) won't get buried. His "lack of paying taxes" has already hit the headlines. Can't wait for more embarrassing news to come out.
Also: Scott Perry is STILL in a heap of trouble conspiring with Meadows to burn documents...

It seems in Michigan, that all the women my age and vintage (the pre-Roe years) are turning out to show the GOP who they messed with. Supremes should be watching closely as well.

I just had a knock at the door at 10:15. Was a young man door knocking for (mainly) Mark Kelly but all D's. I made his day of course & told him I'm on Twitter so I'll pass along the word for Mark Kelly!

Just got the call from the vet. I can pick Lucas up at 4:00. He did well but they did have to remove that loose piece of tongue. She said it's another (very bad) dog bite injury. He has several deep puncture wounds on his tongue as well as ragged wounds! Just awful but he's okay

McConnell still controls his caucus:
Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) โwas booted from his perch on the powerful Armed Services Committee last month as retribution for delaying the confirmation of numerous Defense Department nominees last year, and for his role in challenging....

Trump is really doing some shuffling to keep his taxes secret isn't he? Just keeps on fighting. Must be something really fishy in there. Some are sayin.....

Still hearing about it now! Take care & have a great Thursday!

Another today shot of my Aloe ferox hybrid....almost in full bloom now. The cooler weather helps extend the flowering period. You can see part of my house & the new color & tile work in back.

My friend in Portland who fell and hurt his ribs, sent this pic from early last evening. A magical scene I think! Looks like an ice hotel room. Those look like single beds of snow!
BTW, he broke no ribs but is better but still sore!
Frustrating if you've hurt or broken ribs!

For those waiting for the age to take their social security, just know the government invests wisely.
The money will be there. But only IF you watch the GOP and those who want to "invest" the trust fund into the stock market. What a grift that would be. Probably the biggest steal

@KSergatskova
Some very graphic pictures were to be found at the time & I don't envy your time there or after having witnessed such horror. Some of those on the ground had their own horrific encounters with human & airplane wreckage as well. Corpses falling from the sky. Just sickening.
