Sorry, it seems to me holding Oprah accountable for the bad behavior of 2 of the many people she brought to the public's notice is deeply unfair. Of the many she helped, it's not surprising it's the 2 old, white, straight males who are the disgraceful ones.

True story: Dad's family emigrated from Russia in the early 1900's. Raised to never trust a Russian. When his POW Camp was liberated by Russians in WWII, he jumped into a ditch while the Russians were taking them East. Swears some were never returned to the US. Might be Dad's faulty memory, but...

Opposite for me. The more MAGA exhibits their faux patriotism & attempts to rewrite our country's history, the more I embrace traditional symbols of our country. Although we may lose everything that was great about the US to these cretins, I will remember as long as I live what America was.

My favorite line of Kelly's when talking about stressful events: "I've been in rocket ships built by the lowest bidder."

The senior Democratic leadership don't care about anything but filling their coffers. They do nothing except what the consultant class tells them. That same group that takes all those fundraising dollars for themselves. Leadership has truly lost any feel for what actual constituents want them to do

This is before Mamdani takes office. I guess we will see if any of the top LEOs expect to keep their jobs. Cooperate with lawless thugs & you better lose your job on Jan 1st. Here's hoping Mamdani keeps his promises.

Hate to burst anyone's bubble, but there's a special election Dec 2 in a safe Republican district. Wanna bet the Republican is in Washington & sworn in on Dec 3, before the discharge petition is moved? If there's 1 more Republican in the House, 219 is the magic number.

Although it seems like a great idea, many of us need every inch of storage we can get. I did extensive remodeling to age in place 3 years ago, but this isn't something I would do until absolutely necessary. Not an expensive or difficult modification when needed.

Only starving the funding of all Democratic establishment organizations will help. Donate directly to those primaries our incumbent cowards & traitors.

Because Republicans are so trustworthy it's worth giving up any kind of a fight even when you are winning. Gutless, Tim Kaine. I am ashamed of the Democrats in the Senate. Primary every one who votes fore this deal.

For 2 yrs they gave us free Ozempic. It's the drug that took my husband from 9.0 A1C (while taking 4 different diabetes type II medicines) to 6.8 A1C. Retirees with low income, we qualified through their foundation. I know that others paid exorbitant $ which helped us. Findlay is still a greedy CEO

OK, I am taking credit for this one, LOL. When I received her last email request for funds, I quite harshly urged retirement upon her. Expressed my anger at her copying the worst trait of white males, never ceding power despite advanced age. Told her no $$ for Dems until they moved aside.

Decades ago, an oceanography Ph.d friend of mine got his job because no qualified Canadian would take it. (Studying growth rates of cold water fish.) His predecessor was killed by a polar bear.

Exactly. Once, one local, maybe. Multiple times, mutiple locations, never.
