This is the first Thanksgiving for Sophie & Colin Hortman without their parents, Minnesota state Rep. Melissa Hortman and Mark Hortman who were assassinated along with the family dog in an act of political murder. National guards troops were not deployed to the state in response.

Sure, let’s dissect the mental and physical acuity of the former president who sought to make lives in America better while minimizing the reality of a deranged arsonist dismantling the country we’ve known and loved. What a failure to meet this moment.

A balmy 62 in Montana yesterday….

What Trumpism did was provide a way for deeply unhappy people to spend their time instead of doing anything to change their circumstances

It's like meth in the form of a so-called "political movement"

Some brief kicks, but your teeth will probably fall out because the DHHS Secretary hates fluoride
