KKKaroline Leavitt refers to Dr. Monarez as “Ms. Monarez.” For women with a doctoral degree (not an MD), this is extremely offensive coming from a woman whose biggest accomplishment seems to be suckling from the teat of a weird man-baby with cankles and horcrux hands.

There’s no way to tell the difference between an ICE agent and a criminal when they wear masks, show no badge, won’t identify themselves—then beat, detain, and disappear you. That’s not law enforcement. That’s state-sanctioned abduction.

I see this court and that court blocking what the Nazi MAGA regime is doing. Hooray I hear you shout.
Very soon they'll scrap the Constitution and totally reorganise the judiciary and do whatever they want.
You're going to have a civil war.

The old Höfner workshops at Bubenreuth, Bavaria. Höfner are the manufacturers of guitars and stringed instruments including the famous Violin Bass as played by Paul McCartney.
Höfner left here in 1996 rationalising all production to the Hagenau workshops.

The DOJ is all in a kerfuffle over James Comey posting (in seashells), 8647. Made me think of the Book of Proverbs: "The wicked flee when none pursueth."

“But, then, there’s reason to believe GOP leaders are trying their best not to make the legislation’s true nature clear to members—or the public, for that matter…The longer the debate goes on, the more indefensible those claims look.”

Wow, this post is so unbelievably ignorant!
At this point in the tariff process, he either has no understanding of how tariffs work, or is in complete denial because of how bad it makes him look?
Both are unacceptable, gives the appearance of total incompetence, explains all the past bankruptcies…

Taylor Swift and Bruce Springsteen should do a concert in DC on June 14th. How many people would go see Taylor and The Boss vs mango Mussolini? Make it a free concert at that!

A great weekend with our friends The Bits. One of the best Beatles tribute bands. They played the concert for the long awaited opening of the H7 Bubenreuth Kultur centre and blew the audience away with their talent.
