"These are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the Sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of his country; but he that stands it NOW, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman."

Throwback to 11/21/2019, one of the biggest thrills of my life.

I had a QT of this video pinned on Twitter for the past 5 years. I'm glad I'm able to bring it with me over here.

This had me crying like a baby because it's outrageous that it isn't a nationwide law.

Thank you Pennsylvania & Governor Shapiro!

Holy shit! Trump has no decency or compassion.

A reporter asked if he planned to attend the funeral of Sarah Beckstrom, the National Guard member who just died.

Instead of offering condolences, he said he would “consider it” and pivoted to bragging about his margin of victory in West Virginia.

🚨DJT wins at one thing: He is the most crass and embarrassing person to ever represent at least half of the country - whether they would admit it or not. Too, nobody who is innocent of having misled the country intentionally acts like this.

Reporters who fact-check Trump to his face are not “stupid”, they are not “piggies”, and they are not “ugly”. They are doing their jobs, and doing it under pressure most of us will never experience.

We should be grateful for their service. I appreciate their courage now more than ever.

Why is Trump the spokesperson now over the NG death announcement & not local law enforcement or the hospital or FBI?

This, from the con who hid test results from the ER/hospital after his alleged assassination. Dig deeper media. Use your analytic & investigative reporting skills to get the truth.

Deeply saddened that heroic National Guard Spc. Sarah Beckstrom of West Virginia has died.

Praying for her family and Staff Sgt. Andrew Wolfe as he valiantly battles for his life.

Together we must find a way to better protect those patriots who bravely defend and serve our nation.

Feliz Cumpleaños, Mom!

She served in the U.S. Army and in the Army Reserves for ten years. I remember being worried as a kid that she’d be deployed to Desert Storm. She was even bitten by a scorpion She’s one tough woman.

I know she still sees me as her baby.

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

I’m truly, genuinely embarrassed to live in a country where even on a day of “Thanks”, reflection and gratitude, we get this fungus spooge from the Trump Administration.

Pathetic.

“This is what corruption looks like,” Rep. Jasmine Crockett said about a firm with ties to Kristi Noem secretly working on a DHS ad campaign. “They’re stealing money from the American people’s pockets and depositing it into their bank accounts.”

I don’t get why Trump’s raging at the New York Times or why he called that reporter ugly. Honestly, they went easy on him, skipping the part where the anger fits the dementia pattern.

Signs of dementia: memory problems, confusion, trouble following conversations, sudden anger, personality shifts.

Trump’s “mass deportation” is not deportation at all.

When people are captured without due process, that's kidnapping. When they’re sent to another country against their will, that's human trafficking. When they're put in a prison with no way to get out, that's a concentration camp.

Be more than thankful, be grateful.

I used to live in that space. The space where I could stop and be grateful. Not for possessions, but for my life, my wife, my kids, my family, my dear friends.

“Life is good.”

That was my silent mantra. And it was real. I carried it with me.
