Old man just trying to do the best I can. Democrat, Progressive and believer that Republicans are not evil people, no more than any other group.
It’s interesting how reminding servicemen not to follow ILLEGAL orders is sedition but storming the Capitol is considered sightseeing.

Right wing influencers are livid over rumors newly elected Mayor Zohram Mamdani will force the New York school system to teach children Arabic Numerals. Many of these influencers are calling for him to be denaturaalized over the Islamification of school kids. Some examples of Arabic Numerals? 1,2,3

Epstein Files release: A long drawn out vote in the House of Representatives. An unsure vote ahead in the Senate. Trump would need to sign the bill. -OR-
Trump could direct the DOJ to release all the files and that would be it.

Trump administration is investigating DEMOCRATS because of the Epstein Files - How about investigating DEMOCRATS and REPUBLICANS!!

It just seems black and white to me: Powerful men abused young women. Release the Epstein files and let the
Chips fall where they may. These women deserve transparency. Image if it were your daughter
that was abused.

The US Government has said in its appeal to fund SNAP benefits that doing so would be more harmful to the government than the millions of people that would go hungry.

Analysts at the Bank of America said tariffs have raised prices for consumers.

No shit. Just going shopping will tell you that without being an “analyst”.

A good friend said “Snap recipients should just get a job!” This was after he told me he was receiving government funded health care, unemployed benefits and his disabled daughter was enrolled for free in a highly specialized expensive school. Am I missing something or is he?

TOKYO (Reuters) -Japan's Toyota Motor did not explicitly promise a new $10 billion investment in the United States, a senior executive said on Wednesday, a day after President Donald Trump mentioned a potential investment of that size.
Going to be interesting the amount companies actually invest.

According to The Center on Budget and Policy Priorities the Trump Administration has the legal right to move funds around to be sure SNAP and wic benefits are funded. These benefits have been paid in all other Government shutdowns while both Republicans and Democrats have been in power.

The "Big Beautiful Bill" could save large corporations like Alphabet, Amazon, and Meta billions in tax benefits, with Morgan Stanley projecting a collective $49.5 billion boost to free cash flow in 2025 for these three companies alone. But at least the average Joe gets ……..?

I’m confused. The House of Representatives has not been in session all of October due to shutdown. They are still being paid though. They have nothing else to do other than the shutdown to make life better for their constituents?

Does anyone remember when Fox News billed itself as “Fair and Balanced”?

It seems to me sending an aircraft carrier to the Caribbean for 18’ drug boats is not reality. Sending a message - or preparing for military action against Venezuela seems more logical.

In 9 days people will begin logging on to renew their Marketplace Health insurance for 2026. Most people will
See a MINIMUM of a 100% increase. Many, many will choose not to renew due to high cost putting their family at risk. Democrats and Republicans need to work on this NOW! Call your Reps!

Since the start of Israel’s war with Hamas on October 7, 2023, the United States has enacted legislation providing at least $16.3 billion in direct military aid to Israel. 60+ thousand dead Men Women and children, widespread famine and destruction. But Trump wants a peace prize? Laughable.

To re-enter the US from international travel I’ll be deleting all my social media due to worries they will go thru my accounts. As a US citizen if I’m worried hard to imagine what fears others endure because of current political realities.

Don’t forget Saturday is No Kings Day! Check for your local protest and STAY PEACEFUL!!

I will be attending the No Kings day protests because I Love my country and want to see Freedom Prevail. Don’t twist it into something it’s not.

Very Happy to see peace deal signed for Gaza. Too late for tens of thousands of innocent victims and the widespread destruction of their homes. For what? Shame on Hamas for starting war and Israel for their brutal response.

Why are members of congress getting paid during a shutdown that THEY won’t fix when average hard working Americans aren’t?

The world seems so much in turmoil yet here I spent my days enjoying the relaxation of Aruba and its beaches. Fear not! I rejoin the chaos in a weeks time!
