I'd *just* watched it when I came on here to see what was going on . . . and there it was. Sharing is caring, Paul! lol
And if it makes PITUS cry, all the better. BTW, did you notice that they geofenced the White House somehow to ensure it's played there?

BT, I would've unleashed righteous indignation, 🔵 here, but I laughed b/c all I could think was,"I'm cool with that." 🤠
I dunno who hated DJT more, me or my dearly departed Merle.I had to replace this toy 5 times b/c he loved (ie destroyed) it. Small acts of resistance. 🤣

I cut off their access to this ATM after the election. I sent a scathing email, which stopped the money-grubbing for a while, now I just block all the numbers.

The boycott would've been most effective. It's a striking visual & while MAGA would've dragged them, so what? They're Putin's allies not ours.
All the above assumes they had been effectively messaging for the past month, however. Hate to say it but this D party needs to go the way of the Whigs.🤦♀️

Yeah, they're pretty crazy. We've been in drought conditions here for almost 15 years, brief respites here & there but nothing that really helps. NWS says it's a 10,000 year drought.
Cutting NWS & NOAA hurts all of us - fires, hurricanes, derechos, tornadoes, snow, ice, deadly heat, and on and on.😡

Nowadays, NWS refers to dust storms by their proper name - derecho. I saw a few of them when I lived in Cairo, made me feel like I was at home. :)

It looked like this (pic is from 2019 tho). The video is from 2022, the year I'm thinking of.

If it hadn't been for Smedley Butler, FDR might never known of the coup plot against him. I love historical quotes that are both achingly specific and frighteningly prescient.
