I love my family and my family of friends. I love my dogs. I'm willing to give the rest of you a chance.
My Brindle Pug was Tango, a pug/boston mix who died years ago.

The President calling a sitting member of Congress "garbage" in a televised event should be actionable.

I think he wants to cancel the 2028 elections due to the country being in a state of war.

What a wild idea! Sadly, no one in his circle will suggest that.

I just want to point out that releasing a third party description and releasing the MRI are different things. Independent medical doctors need to review the MRI.

I am going to say: when my mother in law took a fall in her house and the neighbor called 911 before I could get there, the paramedics strongly suggested that I drive her to the ER because it would be far less expensive. They put her in my car (which I might not have been able to do) at no charge.

I have to say, San Diego kind of fell for that with a son replacing a father.

I'm 66. I'm grateful for my school program that required a typed 500 word essay every week and elevated that to include an in class 500 word essay every Friday senior year. Even now, I could write 500 words on almost anything. It's a skill, it needs to be practiced. It needs to be learned.

The press outlets should pull all their male reporters and only send women.

They should refuse to continue & refer Trump to the person he insulted. They can say "you didn't answer their question" or "my question is the same as theirs" or repeat the question that set him off. Or, they could gather around & behind the reporter being abused to present a visually united front.

I mean...isn't he admitting his orders are illegal? The senators were all very clear that they were talking about illegal orders and now Trump says they were saying that the military shouldn't obey his orders.

It is, but that often causes people to get discouraged from voting for any of them.

I would like them to all get in a room and fight it out without involving us. I have personal beef with Swalwell, but generally I like him. But I like a lot of them. They are largely not horrible. It would be cool if they could narrow that field for us.

I suspect this is yet another big Trump move that is going to be walked back because his rich friends call him up and say "no, dude, I need students in my nursing schools" and "no, dude, I need nurses in my private hospitals".

They really tell on themselves reacting so violently to a crystal clear message: "Do not follow illegal orders". Imagine how this story would have died if the responses (from both Miller and Trump) had been "Absolutely! That's a great message! Our troops should never obey an illegal order."

I think those things were actually first, weren't they? At least the vaccines don't work thing...they all take them, but they sure as hell don't want the rest of us to.

If they refuse to release anything due to an "open investigation" I would hope a reporter would point out that the GOP has consistently complained that the Democrats didn't release the files during their open investigation.
