I love this perspective. I always identified with my ancestors, Irish immigrants and Union soldiers. They fled oppression, fought to free their fellow Americans and save the Union.

Could we please just fast forward to the scene where he blows his brains out in a bunker?
I love a happy ending.

This is courage.
This is defiance, grace under pressure, dignity, character, resolve and resilience.
This is what a leader does.
This is the Winston Churchill of the 21st century.
We are better for knowing that his steadfastness is the beacon Ukraine and the world needs.

Free entrance on Dumb Furor's birthday. That's straight out of the Kim Jung Un handbook.

I always think of Maxfield Parrish when I see clouds like this. He captured them so well.

There's a lot of competition but ICE has skyrocketed to the tippy top of the Naughty (Shit) List. I'm skipping the coal and delivering reindeer droppings.

It's that simple.
Not a conspiracy, collaboration.

How much does a Trump pardon cost?
Is the money transfered through the Cayman Islands, Switzerland, or Russia?
Follow the money.
It's the only thing he loves more than himself.

When I read this I can only assume she's talking about American Billionaires. She is describing them perfectly.
Hopefully her next post will describe how she deported them all and returned the wealth to the working class which earned, and was robbed of it.

I close my eyes and envision this as a billboard. Maybe in South Florida, D.C., New Jersey...you get the idea.

Just throw out the lame Trump "I was joking/ being sarcastic...whatever" defense.
Half the people will accept it at face value.

A simple summation of Trump/MAGA/Republican strategy.

Let's not forget the postcards to memorialize the event. With a sea of beaming, gleeful white faces in the foreground and the victim in the tree. "Strange fruit".
