Can you imagine how far into impeachment procedings we would be if Kamala was pres?

Just announced: GDP for 1st quarter was -.3%. Minus .3%? It’s official. We’re in a recession.

Just saw a segment on the news about FBI spending crazy $ to polygraph personnel for leaks. Wouldn’t it be more cost efficient to just do the correct thing? That way leaks become irrelevant

Can anyone tell me what is happening with Amazon. We’re just trying to buy everyday stuff like pet food and toiletries. Everything (literally) is unavailable

Today, for the first time in decades, I will not be watching 60 Minutes. I can’t express the depths of my anger and disappointment at CBS.

Trying to spoil the grandkids is getting harder. They “needed” a new Big Wheel. The last one we bought was 2 years ago for $59. You cant touch one now for under $110 and they’re next to impossible to find. Is this tarrif related?

I honestly need someone to explain to me why immigration is actually an issue? Didn’t Republican’s eliminate it as one of their issues last year when they refused to vote on an Immigration Reform bill that they wrote themselves. Dems need to jump on this!!

I saw in Becoming Superman that you worked on Murder She Wrote. I heard today that Lansbury often got older actors parts on the show so that they could get union benefits. I thought this was very sweet. Is this true?

By the way, my deepest thanks to Tammy Duckworth for her Hell No

Democrats who voted to advance the measure were: Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (N.Y.), Dick Durbin (Ill.) and Sens. Catherine Cortez Masto (Nev.), Maggie Hassan (N.H.), John Fetterman (Pa.), Gary Peters (Mich.), Brian Schatz (Hawaii), Kirsten Gillibrand (N.Y.) and Jeanne Shaheen (N.H.)

Those democratic senators who allowed cloture need to be primaried. Since I live in Illinois, I’m talking to you, Mr. Durbin. You’ve all proven you don’t have what it takes for the fight ahead.

@schumer.senate.gov Please vote no!!!

It does my old heart good to see people protesting in the streets. I did it in the 60’s when I was young and strong. I thank those of you who are out there now that I can’t

I’m watching Harry Potter for the ***th time because I’m scared to watch the news.
