Sorry, I just don't have time for Olivia Nuzzi. Nor any of the news programming on major networks, the paywalled click bait from NYTimes, WaPost, etc. Sorry, eyeball chasers, you've officially lost me!

The Rose Garden paved over and part of the White House demolished for a gaudy ballroom nobody was asking for. Meanwhile jobs are down and prices are up. Tell me again how voting Republican was good for your wallet.

These firings suggest that the truth about MAGA is finally coming home to roost. What was once easy to dismiss is now harder to ignore—even for those who thought they were safe from its consequences.

Finishing up yard work today in the "War torn" Pacific Northwest. Standing in solidarity with our neighbors in Oregon.

It's not about your political affiliation, it's if you're capable of expressing yourself a human being.

Special note of mention for the person in the office who emptied the water in the Keurig and left their pod in the machine for me to throw away!

Egg prices in the US at a record high, a resounding rebuke of the media bias last year favoring Trump over Biden. Critical thinking, people (especially as it pertains to voting)...

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is cancelled -AND- the price of eggs is WAY up since December. Looks like the ruling party got to have their cake (a nod to predatory lenders) and eat it too (tying Biden to something the other guy has no desire to fix).

My son noticed a van painted up offering raw milk to the public and my thoughts immediately went to POTUS Elect and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. That can't be good, right?

My take on today's news? It's already a dumpster fire and the new administration hasn't even started yet.

Long-time cartoonist Ann Telnaes, quits the Washington Post...

egads, I'm seeing a ton of posts featuring POTUS elect! Can't be good, whatever it is.

The press has only a self interested agenda to serve! If we wanted a cheering squad, we wouldn't be discussing this. I and probably millions of other citizens would gladly pay for media espousing unadulterated truth. Too bad the decision makers in media subscribe to the lowest common denominator.

RE: Survival skills (first installment)

• Don't click!

Today I saw a Breaking News alert pop up in the Windows tray. Resisted the temptation and didn't click. Four hours later I'm happier for it (not even curious what it was)

This might be telling us something...

Just to be clear, I *didn't* vote for the person that had to roll out a fake version of their spouse!

Yup!
