Proud resident of Pruder Street, not Pruder Way or Pruder Lane, in Fargo. I do radio commercials for products.
Time for the City of Houston to secede from Texas.
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) threatened Houston with a state takeover of its elections on Thursday — an escalation of long-simmering GOP threats to gain control of voting in the fourth-largest city in the United States. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

It’s times like this that I pray for the return of excommunication. JD Vance should be excommunicated from the Church. He is an amoral heretic.
The digital editor of the National Catholic Reporter has written the most cogent and hard-hitting critique of JD Vance I've ever read, worth a thousand couch jokes

Jews hid in attacks and basements when the Nazis went door to door.
Americans staged a revolution bc the redcoats went door to door AND drafted the 4th Amendment to prohibit this without warrants to prevent the USG from engaging in this.
This rogue terrorist regime is grotesquely unamerican.

Naming a police officer is not doxxing. We aren’t supposed to have secret police in America.

This man swore an oath to support and defend the Constitution, and what he says here violates that oath in more ways than I can count.

Yes, JD. Let’s ask them if they think a stay at home mom, avowed Christian, and widow of a veteran deserved to be shot in the face and left to bleed out in her own car after dropping her 6-year-old off at school, for the crime of looking out for her neighbors. Let’s ask everyone running for office.

A U.S. citizen was shot at point-blank range on a public street. Now, federal agents are barricading the scene and blocking local authorities from doing their jobs. This is not how a democracy functions—it is how a police state operates. Renee Good deserves justice, not a federal cover-up.

JD Vance, aside from being a complete liar, is amoral, hates people, and is downright evil. If he ever becomes president, the evil that Trump commits now will pale by comparison.
Vance: “This is classic terrorism, and we cannot say that when a far-left fringe is inciting violence against our brave law enforcement officials that we're no longer going to enforce the law.”

Both sides of her mouth. "They don't have jurisdiction in this investigation" means they have been cut out.
Q: “The head of the Minnesota state investigations agency said that they've been cut out of the investigation into the fatal shooting…Can you explain that reversal?”
Noem: “They have not been cut out. They don't have jurisdiction in this investigation.”
