“Bombshell “ bs that litters the media is a huge “nothing new”. They are mostly meaningless drama queen verbiage.

We already knew. From day one. We are the ones living the daily lives of the nightmare.

The ineffective and hesitant resistance and delayed OMG outrage of too many Democrats in Congress has almost broken our spirit countless times while we seethe in impotent frustration.
Almost.

We see warriors emerging.

But the pain is palpable. The continuing damage is extensive and deep.

Yeah. We already KNEW.
