Instead of stealing Greenland from Denmark, let’s steal some of their policies.
In Denmark:
- Health care and college are free.
- The starting wage is $22/hr.
- Paid parental leave is 1 year.
- Paid vacation is 6 weeks.
- All workers get pensions.

Same, Jordan. I deleted all my Meta and X apps but FB. The only reason I need to keep FB is to update family on my Father in in-home hospice. When that reaches it's conclusion, I'm out completely.
Annnnd there it is. There’s the scam.
Just FYI, we won’t use TikTok if Trump, Musk, Bezos, or Zuck have anything to do with its ownership.
Hope that helps 👍

Three days before leaving office, Joe Biden made a surprising announcement: He declared a decades-old proposed Constitutional amendment enshrining equal rights on the basis of sex is now “the law of the land.”
Except it isn’t. So what's going on here?

Biden just announced there’s a new constitutional amendment. Huh?
A victory for women’s rights — or an empty political stunt?

Wiseacre makes an excellent point, as usual.
We have learned that the historical precedents, decorum, and general respect that nearly all of our past President's have observed and shown, mean nothing to those whose only concern is to die with the most toys, regardless of the price.

Just because it's legal, doesn't mean it's moral. The United States celebrates and incentivizes immoral behavior - eventually it destroys itself (and everyone around it). Welcome to destruction

We need a complete overhaul of legacy media. It no longer serves the people, no longer truthful, no longer unbiased, no longer relevant.
