After years of violent crime statistics going down, maga has found a way to reverse that trend, via government sanctioned murder. Someone definitely needs to dox this murderer. A disgruntled co-worker, an angry neighbor, a disgusted family member.

Years ago, I was in a Movenpick in Aqaba. I never had anywhere near enough time to exploit all the wonderfulness of it. Got to the private beach and into the water. Just so I could say I'd swum in the Red Sea.
Orange Slime and his minions are using an old tactic, maybe made most famous by uncle Joey Goebbels: repeat junk enough times, and it eventually becomes believable to the masses. Over time, it doesn't seem like junk anymore.... The nonsense they are…
Springfield, MA. My hometown. Sad to say it is today a crime toilet. The Arsenal that Longfellow wrote of is always called the "armory," instead. Today, it functions as a museum. Its weapon-making days are done. I suppose the poet would be pleased.

By all means, watch and listen to the whole thing, but if you want to skip some preliminary chatter, start at 9:38.

The Orange Abomination AND the current lickspittle majority-Repugnant Congress have hastened the country's demise, and this instance is just one egregious piece in the process. A pox on all Repugnants.

Typical January raid on my funds again in 2026. I never want to pull too much from one source. Spread it around, like manure. PRWCX, PRCFX, PRCPX and BLX were the targets this time. It's very counterintuitive to yank money from a good performer. BLX…
But it's OK for grown-up schoolyard chickenshit masked ICE bullies to THROW women across the street????? Pepper spray? Teargas? Rubber bullets? How many fatal casualties have there been? SHIT.
Re: the abuse of Sen. Kelly:
So many chickenshit Repugnants. Jayzuz. They won't back him up, after all he's done for the country. Only two mentioned in the article express misgivings: Collins and Tillis.

Puke bucket, please. No need for any sort of government that SERVES the governed--- unless you're a billionaire. It's all about dollars and cents. But skip the cents (like the IRS already does) because that's just chicken feed.
