These are times that feel rife with mourning, for what was and what might be. I have a friend who shared this photo ~12 yrs ago. She had stacked some artichokes on a plate as a decorative centerpiece. Over time they shriveled and blackened into dried husks, looking lifeless and gray…
It’s at times like these that we need an unexpected hero, much like a modern-day Martha Mitchell who can spur the convictions of corrupt politicians for crimes like perjury, obstruction of justice, conspiracy, and other similar transgressions.

Oh dear, MAGA is going to be bummed. One of the Epstein emails specifically said Clinton was never on the island, and that the stories were complete and utter fantasy. He also said he'd never met Al Gore.

Trump isn’t going to do anything to address ridiculous prices, but he will let you mortgage a house for 50 years!
His banker buddies will LOVE that. A $400,000 house will cost you a million dollars over 50 years.
