I would be a definite Nay if I had my say. Mike Johnson is talking out of both sides of his mouth. You want to be political? Sure fine, I'll be political. Go jump in this Mike Johnson.

They have all the power now and they're never going to give it up. Hope we get to enjoy DU at least as little longer.

...only in MAGA world. Overheard a bartender at my regular watering hole talking about how she can't stand Jasmine Crockett because she is THE MOST DEVISIVE she's ever seen. Let that sink in. I have to find a new place to drink.

Jesus was particularly divisive given his message of universal love for all was not well received. Said message being wholly ignored and outright repudiated by today’s “Christian” nationalists who worship their Orange Julius Caesar over all else. 😡

Last November I quit drinking and the bars.

It was very expensive and loud trumpers pissed me off.

I didn’t think I could be amazed by anything Drumpf & Co. could do but Kimmel’s firing is truly stunning.
Not sure how we recover from all this without a major national strike.

Not sure either but let's call for a massive boycott of everything the cowards at ABC put on air.

ALL of their crap. Let's see how long they'll remain sucking the little mushroom of their dear dictator with nobody "tuning in" right?

Also Italy about the same time. Franco's Spain. Stalin's Russia. Worlds like that.
