She had said "grammy, I wish we had a family business"
"Every family business starts sometime" I replied "Want to start it today?"
#SheSaidYes :-)

RINO is no longer a term for individuals - it can now be applied quite literally to the entire Party.
Whether you agreed with them or not, the Republican Party always stood for three things :

I do wonder how much of the right wing turn against the rhetoric of “trauma” comes from its application giving medical credibility to the suffering of rape victims.

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges.
This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.
