"In love affairs, we can and do adore people without understanding them, and we often perceive their lives to be but dim mirrors of our own. And so it is with a novel like Mrs Dalloway."

Kids are going to go to school with empty tummies.

LA County has declared a state of emergency BECAUSE OF the federal government.

His wife was dying, his federal job crumbling. It tested his faith — in God and Trump.

Trump said in July that he wanted Kimmel fired next.

July.

Kirk was still alive in July.

This has nothing to do with Kirk. Nothing.
Federal government forces Jimmy Kimmel off the air. RIP First Amendment.
Man, you gotta hand it to ABC. The speed with which it will knuckle under to President Donald Trump is really impressive. It took only a few hours for the powers that be to indefinitely sideline award...
