Trump and measles are trending in opposite directions. As Trump becomes more and more unpopular, measles is exploding in the US. Americans have stopped worrying about protecting their kids and decided they will take their chances with the measles. Should insurance stop covering unvaccinated people?

Notice its Democrats getting attacked lately. Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) at a town hall a man sprayed her with an unknown liquid from a syringe. Rep. Maxwell Frost (D-Fla.) got punched in the face at the Sundance Film Festival. Why? Because right-wing "terrorists" feel they can get away with it.

Funny GOP is more worried about protecting ICE agents than in protecting US citizens. The very things ICE is doing to American citizens is what the GOP thinks will happen to ICE agents if they unmask. Interesting thought but STUPID... local police forces do their job everyday without being masked !

Democrats are worried about Trump using the insurrection Act to put troops in US cities. Well now is the time to end that possibility. Add an amendment to the Government funding bill to remove any funding for deployment of National Guard or Regular military forces for deployment to US cities.

Senate Democrats are talking about procedural changes to ICE patrols. If they don't disarm ICE more people will die. Any legislation should include disarming. If ICE thinks they will be in a dangerous situation, they can coordinate with local law enforcement for armed backup.

Remember the Challenger accident Jan. 28, 1986. The Space Shuttle Challenger disintegrated 73 seconds into its tenth mission, killing all seven crew members. Space exploration is a dangerous business and we should not forget that.

Are we just stupid or did we forget how good vaccines are ?
Cumulative MEASLES cases in 2026 is exploding. RFK Jr should never have been in charge of HHS or anything related to health. Also appears that there are many people that prefer measles to the vaccine.

Fetterman changes his tune on Noem.... but can you support DHS and not Noem. He supported her nomination now wants her impeached. Basically shows poor judgement on his part. Fetterman is is not up for re-election until Nov 2028, so he has job security for a couple more years.

Should Canada backtrack on the purchase of 88 Lockheed Martin F-35 fighter jets, the U.S. ambassador to Canada has warned the U.S. would “fill those gaps” in security concerns and over fly Canadian air space. What this IDIOT does NOT realize is the bulk of the radar stations (78%) are in Canada.

Hey, let's not forget that there were Democrats in the Senate who supported Kristi Noem's appointment as DHS Secretary. While we can understand the mindless votes of GOP Senators who do whatever Trump says ... it's a little harder to forgive Democrats who should have voted their conscience.

Gov Josh Shapiro (PA) is still popular with PA voters but not so much with PA Democratic leaders. Shapiro is looking to cement his power in PA by pushing forward Democratic candidates to challenge for US House seats. Targeting Brian Fitzpatrick (PA-1) among others.

Trump insulted many NATO allies by saying they have contributed little when the US was fighting in Afghanistan. Trump is an idiot ! Captain BONE-SPURS has contributed nothing to American security and is trying to destroy it. Maybe he really is a Russian agent working for Putin !

Trump just can't stop insulting Canada. The good news is that Canada seems to be doing quite well forging new economic and military alliances with Europe. Canada is even rebuilding its relations with China. Trump is basically destroying an economic and military structure that has benefitted the US.

Senate Democrats looking at a Presidential run in 2028 are talking about ending ICE funding...maybe they will, maybe they won't. Senate Democrats haven't done much to stop Senate Republicans. It's easy to talk BIG when your vote effectively doesn't matter.

The House still votes the way Johnson tells them and Johnson gets his supporters through traffic from Dulles with a police escort. Let's not forget Brain Fitzpatrick (PA-1) vote to continue to fund ICE. In November, we have a chance to end Fitzpatrick's political career of supporting Trump.

Winter weather. Be prepared. Some areas in the South are going to get lots of ice from the storm. The mid-Atlantic and Northeast look to be lots of snow, maybe 1 to 2ft ... don't travel and stay warm .... good time to binge movies with the kids.

House Democrats now have 100 cosponsors on a resolution to impeach Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem. The Noem effort represents a mainstreaming of impeachment and offers an early signal of who Democrats may target first if they retake the House in November.

Elon Musk still trying to buy his way into elections. Musk is spending $10 million to support MAGA candidate Nate Morris for the Kentucky seat being vacated by Sen. Mitch McConnell (R). Morris has been polling behind other primary contenders. Is a Musk endorsement is that the kiss of death ?

Canada, once the US's best Ally, is looking at a fundamental change in its relationship with the US. Canada is seeking to realign with Europe and possibly form an economic bridge between China and Europe worth billions of dollars. Trump's broke all the norms of international relationships.
