Thank you Sen (and Captain!) Kelly for your service to the nation and Arizona. You might be interested to know that another way foreign policy is so f'uped is that the Thrift Savings Program for government employees invests in Chinese firms! www.nytimes.com/2025/12/08/o... #investment #foreignpolicy

I saw this on a local news station owned by Gray Media. No mention of this judge's name or whether they could be a target. I learned from ABC that this judge had denied the DOJ's demand for names, addresses, driver’s license numbers and SSNs of local voters. Her husband is a former D state Senator.

Giving the finger to the 0-5 Jets is like throwing rocks at a baby in a playpen .... oh, wait a minute....

How about making shutdowns illegal

If they can't agree on a budget - it's last years budget plus inflation and salary increase of 3.5%

Well what do you expect from a president who communicates with Cabinet members via social media? And whose Cabinet hold security meetings via an app!

Yes, "people are saying..." "I don't know, people say..." sound familiar? Just substitute "legal analyst" for "people."

Same here! And I saw the photo and was confused...is he trans?

No. But you can talk to your President about it because he has a thick skin.

Thanks for standing up for people like me - I don't have insurance through work, I'm too young for Medicare, and I rely on Obamacare with subsidies. For those of us over 50, getting hired at good places with benefits is a joke. It's a weird feeling that anyone would stand up for people like me.

NPR did a month ago, possibly the first reporting on this. Also mentioned it in hour news roundup today. www.npr.org/2025/09/08/n...

Trump's former ambassador to the UK, Woody Johnson, is the heir to J&J and supposedly a long-time pal. Woody is another business genius - inherited millions from his family and owns the NY Jets (0-3; 5-12 last season). 'Nuff said.

What's interesting is that Trump is (or was?) pals with Robert Wood Johnson IV (aka Woody), heir to J&J, which owns Kenvue. Johnson was the Ambassador to the UK in T's first Admin - and the longtime owner of the ever-hapless NY Jets. #Tylenol
