Apparently my comments to nurses of TikTok about their “diagnosing” trump based off a couple of photos has annoyed some. There are 61 responses. I haven’t actually opened the app to see. Especially the one who called it terminal.

I’m really tired of all the nurses diagnosing Trump based off a photo. CVI and CHF are two separate conditions. Intertwined yes, but separate and in some cases overlapping. It’s ok to have your own thoughts but posting serves no purpose.

The reason DOGE has been so effective in shaking and breaking is there has been no practical transparency in these agencies. Every penny (other than valid black spending) should be on a web page that anyone who wants can see exactly where $ is going.

A dying culture invariably exhibits personal rudeness. Bad manners. Lack of consideration for others in minor matters. A loss of politeness, of gentle manners, is more significant than is a riot.
