I have returned from the Land of the Lost. [View all]

It is still lost.
Don’t know why I stayed away for so long.
I no longer speak to 95% of my family. I knew some would be MAGAts. I guessed about others. I had no idea that some were so devoid of empathy and had no moral compass. Trump exposed a lot.
That worm Lindsay Graham is still squirming about and is attached at the hip to Trump. The SC legislature wants to pass bills honoring Charlie Kirk and want to name a bridge after him. As you can see, they are still working on important issues.
If I post the word Smedley, they got me.
