Speaking Spanish

I wouldn't be at all surprised if speaking Spanish soon becomes illegal and Duolingo will be a good place to originate arrests. My 1000 day streak is in jeopardy.

Yes, my hubby said. And I'll tell you, for 3.99 a month.

Obama demanding the resignation of the CEO of Intel

would have exploded every head in Washington. Does it not get more surreal every damn day?

When all this Epstein crap finally comes down

we will have learned that Donald Trump is a vile, filthy, disgusting lecherous pervert without a molecule of decency. Oh, wait . . .

ICE has closed a car wash near my neighborhood

No employees were left after the raid. A few of their cars, apparently, are still parked there, but the business is shuttered. A nail salon was decimated last week. Nine taken away there. I can't help but wonder how many of the owners of similar small businesses are going to hold a LONG political grudge against these monsters.

they're rounding up our manicurists!

Here in my neighborhood ICE has raided a local nail salon. Possibly to head off the threat of mass pedicures? I swear I think the only way to be safe now is to have a last name of Smith, or Jones, or Trump. This is beyond ridiculous. Just cruet

WHAT FRESH HELL?

Does anyone else feel that spasm of existential dread every morning before you turn on the TV or make your first click on the internet in anticipation of the newest horror emanating from the White House? If it weren't so terrifying it would almost be funny.

That’s a mortality rate of 0.0000000625% About the same danger as being bit by a rapid gopher. Just saying, RFK.

Lies: Trump vs. Vance

Trump's lies are often spontaneous, babbling, incoherent. Bursts of vile gibberish and seat-of-the-pants hate-filled fragments and braggadocio. Let's face it. Trump is inarticulate, poorly educated and undeniably stupid.
Vance's lies are slick, smooth, studied, and articulate. Somehow even more terrifying. Vance is by far the better liar and much more to be feared.
