I am and will remain a Clemson fan. Dabo has and will do great things for Clemson. I do not understand what is going on with either the offense or defense. We are better than this. #CFB

There is no art in Trump, much less in any of his "deals." Born rich, he learned to abuse his financial advantage to bully others, lying and cheating his way through life, and believing that made him smart. Now he is trying to abuse our country's financial advantage to bully the world.

Trump just denied North Carolina’s request for FEMA relief from Hurricane Helene, calling it “unwarranted.”

This is why you don't elect IDIOTS to be President. Even worse, an idiot that doesn't know what he doesn't know, but thinks he is a stable genius. Idiot.

This bird attacked my side mirror several times when I got to my office this morning. Then he gave me a "You want some of me?" look. I did not.

Freedoms are hard won, and easily lost.
Unless we all have our rights and freedoms, none of us do.
Constitutionally-founded freedoms are, shockingly, under attack by our own current president and his minions.
Keeping our rights and freedoms is essential to our nation's survival.

He who rambles on about Hannibal Lecter, Arnold Palmer’s dick size, windmill cancer, and turning Gaza into a real-estate play, and thinks he’s saving the county, should have his head examined.

I did not get Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl halftime show, and it was another in a long series of events that show me how narrow my cultural range actually is. I was not offended by it, or feel attacked, nor was I dismissive of it. I just didn't get it. And I wish I had.

I get that Duke is #2, and is Duke, and Clemson's not, but ESPN's Dick Vitale's constant wondrous praise of Duke is sickening. At least for a Clemson fan.
