📸 No one follows more etiquette rules than the Royal Family—but notice how King Charles didn’t make any smart-ass or demeaning comments about Zelensky’s attire today.
Why? Because respect isn’t about clothes—it’s about character. And that’s something money can’t buy.

First they came for the federal employees,
And I did not speak out,
Because I was not a federal employee

You know the rest of the poem.
Act accordingly.

Just visited the St. Louis Holocaust Museum. The parallels to our current timeline are right there on the walls for all to see. The scapegoating, the propaganda, the politics of appeasement (enabling Russia). Survivors warned us for 80 years. Never occurred to me we wouldn’t listen. #PolishAmerican
Remember when you were in school and you read "The Diary of Anne Frank" and you thought of all the things you would have done to stop the Nazis?
Do those things now.
Do those things now.

Democratic leaders:
I think it's abundantly clear at this point that simply going along to get along ain't gonna work. Trying to negotiate ain't gonna work. Being collegial ain't gonna work. What you're doing right now isn't working.
Take your gloves off and punch back. Hard.

Elon Musk is a corporate raider with an established history of buying up businesses, pushing out the founders, taking credit for their inventions and reshaping those businesses in his own image.
His latest raid?
The United States of America.

So a reminder:
It’s not ‘liberals’ saying Hegseth abuses women. It’s his mom.
It’s not ‘liberals’ comparing Trump to Hitler. It’s his vice-president.
It’s not ‘liberals’ calling Musk a liar and a racist. It’s his own child.
For the record.
