Had brunch with my millennial son & his girl friend. They said the Dem Party needs to change their message. Young Dems are concerned about affordable housing & affordable healthcare & the right to choose their medical treatment. Repubs are pushing the wrong narrative. Dems need younger people in Gov

Here we go. Our military people are now in harm’s way due to a narcissistic president who thinks he deserves a Nobel Peace Prize. What a POS he is. Iran has retaliated with bombing a base in Qatar.

According to British news, the only winner in this whole debacle at the WH today is Putin.
UK is worried that relations with US will deteriorate & partnerships may also deteriorate. Not good for Ukraine.

Lindsay Graham is also an embarrassment. Saying that Trump was right. Said Zelensky is not a good “investment” for the US. You know what? Lives are more important than minerals.

As I sit in England watching the Trump/Zelensky meeting unfold, I’m embarrassed to be an American seeing my President act like a petulant bully. Very proud for how Zelensky kept his composure. Glad he did not sign the deal. Trump would never have provided security to Ukraine.

I’m visiting friends in England & they are appalled with Trump’s siding with Putin & trying to extort Ukraine for the minerals in return for aid. They also can’t understand how our Congress allows Trump & Musk to act the way they are. US is losing all global crediability.

So if the White House tells a judge that Elon Musk is not an employee of the USDOGE service, then why is he telling DOGE employees who to fire? This chaos & confusion shit being spewed by Trump’s minions will decimate any integrity remaining of our democracy.

Now that Musk has access to the federal banking system that pays the bills (including SS checks) what's stopping Musk from siphoning $$$ as a fee to administer the checks.His people now have access to US citizen's social security numbers, full names, DOB. Anyone see anything wrong with this?

2/2 These USAID programs were approved by Congress. Musk has no authority to dismantle this program. He had his IT people go in & shut down the website & lock out employees from their email. This is not how our country should be run.

When is it right for a non gov't agcy to come in & take over a gov't agcy that handles $50 bil in aid? Musk said last night that USAID was dead. USAID handles the foreign aid to countries.They provide services &medicine to countries prevent HIV & other diseases. Where is the humanity in this guy?

Trump & his minion Hegseth are despicable. Treating retired Gen Milley like a criminal. Wanting to demote him for sticking up for the Constitution. If this isn’t revenge, I don’t know what is. Glad Biden gave him a preemptive pardon.

Trump offer 8,000 former military back pay to reenlist. He offer 2 mil government workers 8 months severance if they resign. I figure the cost would be a minimum $8.4 billion. Who’s going to pay for this? Not the 1% billionaires. He’ll cut social programs. This country is in trouble.

I honestly hate liars. I think having to listen to Trump continuously say his court case is/was a witch hunt & he did nothing wrong, will be the death of me. (Not literally). Makes one not want to listen to any news.

Thoroughly enjoyed watching the PNC Challenge today. Young Charlie Woods at age 15 is proving to be a great golfer. Can’t wait to see how he shapes up over the next 10 years. His first hole in one today. Mind you, the other children of notable golfers were equally impressive.

So far, what I like about BlueSky is that there are NO messages from Elon Musk. Considering I wasn’t following him on X, every other tweet came from him. I don’t like being forced feed BS from a misogynistic guy.
I do like the messages from many with different subject matter. Variety is nice.

Even in retirement, Saturday mornings are meant to be spent lounging. Need to regenerate the brain cells. There is something to be said about sitting over breakfast watching nature outside, birds flying, people walking dogs, kids playing. Nice way to start the day.
