Grumpy as hell. With good reason too…

A 1-year-old girl was pepper-sprayed through the window of a moving vehicle by ICE agents in Chicago. She was briefly hospitalized.

The dad said a masked agent pointed pepper-spray at a Sam's parking lot when they were hit.

On January 1, 2026, convicted sex trafficker and sexual abuser Ghislaine Maxwell will have better healthcare and food benefits than EIGHTY MILLION Americans.

Let that sink in.

There’s real irony in this: lawmakers can’t get back to DC to vote to reopen the government because flights are canceled, thanks to the same shutdown they caused.

Federal and local law enforcement wearing masks is just plain unamerican. It’s a cowards move, and shows the fact that the kinds of deportations happening and the methods are, shameful and unpopular.

The United States of America is one false flag operation away from its own Fire Decree. The German decree was not accompanied by any written guidelines to the Nazis from the Reich government; this omission gave wide latitude in interpreting the decree. Pretty slick.

The masks need to go. Do it in the light. If it’s right, there’s no need to hide their faces. Anonymity breeds cruelty and avarice. No masks!

Grandma Reactions BSKY debut? For those that don’t know I’ve been this queen’s primary caregiver for the last 20 years. Wouldn’t change a thing.

The US Secretary of Education, Linda McMahon, seemingly does not know about the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre or Ruby Bridges:

“I will look into it and get back to you.”

Van Hollen: "I assume after yesterday you're no longer advocating people buy Tesla stock?"

Lutnick: "A terrorist attack on a great American stock seemed to require a response."

Van Hollen: "A Secretary of Commerce probably should not be offering suggestions on stock purchases."

Hurricane season starts June 1 and if you live in a Gulf state, you need to watch this. It’s worse than you might think.

The few employees still left at FEMA admit: they are not prepared. Not enough staff. Not enough supplies. Not enough leadership. Plan accordingly.

Since Greenland is Danish territory and Denmark is a NATO member…how does NATO react if the USA behaves as an aggressor state to that island? European cabinets should be burning the midnight oil on that subject. I don’t think he’s bluffing.

Seems they absolutely insist on not just touching, but embracing and licking that 3rd rail. The fireworks are gonna be epic!
WTF. This is insane.

For so many seniors, there would be no money for food, rent, or prescriptions without their Social Security check. Howard Lutnick says if they complain about missing a check, they're a fraudster.
Trump’s commerce secretary Howard Lutnick says if Social Security skipped a check, his mother-in-law wouldn’t complain—and if you would, it indicates you are probably a fraudster. Insane.

The people that would have gladly given up power when their jobs were done are no longer in power for that very reason.
The avaricious, the venal, the power mad…those that will never peacefully give up power, sit in the seats of power now.
We will all suffer for allowing it.

My working theory of a lot of NT people is that they are far more rigid than autistic people, because I can generally explain things rationally to an autistic person and we can work out something, but many NT people will cling to rote acceptable behaviour they're not even aware is a choice

The cover-up…

USAID officials were ordered to destroy classified documents, raising concerns about compliance with federal law. An internal email sent to remaining bureau leaders at the agency’s Washington headquarters provided guidance on “clearing our classified safes and personnel documents.”
