It is tragic that this person was put in a position where she lost her life for no reason other than to serve the vanity of a man determined to establish dominance over a city that hates him
"In the months leading up to the D.C. deployment, Beckstrom worked for a community health center that serves people with mental illness and substance abuse disorders." www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...
National Guard member killed in D.C. shooting remembered for 'heart of gold'
The slain soldier’s former boyfriend recalled her empathy and generosity. “She doesn’t even have to know you and she’ll do anything for you,” he said.

Marjorie Taylor Greene came into Congress in 2021 worth about $700,000. She leaves five years later worth around $25,000,000. 😳 Congress is just a giant insider-trading scheme.

I remember when Dick Cheney was among the darkest people on earth, and many of us prayed for his de*th. Despite his inexcusable deeds, he looks like Mr. Rogers compared to the filth currently soiling the Oval.

I think one of the things overlooked in the whole Epstein thing is the role that obscene levels of money plays. All that money breeds entitlement and an unspoken web of protection. But it never ends well. Never.

The SNAP situation just hit home. I volunteer w/LasagnaLove and was given an emergency match to deliver to a local family in dire straits. Just dropped it off; Mom was so grateful. On the drive home, I was happy to help, but also enraged at this petty little creature making folks suffer.

Democrats asked for ONE THING today to reopen the govt: Keep health insurance subsidies where they are at now for one year. That is IT. Nothing else.
Republicans said no.
So all the lies they tell every day about things Dems are asking for is BS.

Because it's a dreary Nov day and everything is terrible, I cooked up a mess of Chicken and Dumplings, using my grandmother's handwritten recipe. When making the dumplings, it reads to roll 'em out "thin enough to read a newspaper through." It's a comforting touchstone to family history.

The depth of the shame of a country this wealthy and abundant allowing its people to go hungry is impossible to measure. The fact that a handful of people could fix this by paying their fair share of taxes while still remaining obscenely wealthy makes it even worse.

Guillermo del Toro on wealth: "a wealthy man is a man who has enough, not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite someone for a beer? You're rich. If you have a yacht, planes, islands, and you still need more? You're not rich."
