Trump said he'd lower costs on day one.
It's been nearly 300 days now, and he's only made life more expensive.
The average American family will pay $1,800 more because of Trump's tariff taxes.

In normal times, it would be a major scandal for the President to direct his AG to criminally investigate his political opponents to deflect from his own involvement in a major scandal — and for the AG to immediately announce she is doing it. The Epstein scandal and cover up just got even bigger.

I like how full text search of every book and human thought ever was a SOLVED PROBLEM in 2001, and now dicks at search engines and my own phone – a piece of silicon faster to respond than God was ever imagined in scripture – prevent it from working, _as a retroactive infantilizing design choice_.

Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."

Funny. I was 15 when I was molested. I was a child.
"don't worry, he's just into 15-year-olds" perhaps not as exculpatory as you think
Also 15-year-olds are not "barely legal." They are minors.

This is the final call. The money raised thus far will go to Alpine Animal Hospital in Pullman in the morning. Thank you so, SO much to everyone who donated.
This will be Last Call for Smokey's fundraiser. The funds will be used to pay for his final expenses and his cremation. I doubt we're going to push over the goal, but if we do, any remaining funds will still go to Alpine Animal Hospital's Angel Fund to help other low income pet owners in need.
Friends, we are so close to our goal for Nicole and Smokey!
Please share what you can, even if it's just sharing the link!
Please and thank you! Exclamation points!!
