My children telephoned and I told them I was dying. I telephoned Linda after she finished her workday to remind her that I was dying. When a stranger wanted to come calling, I told him I was almost dead.

To anyone who has not investigated the current LEADERSHIP (not members) of the DSA,
I invite you to use google.
Simply ask WHO is the DSA leadership
Ask if they have a revolutionary caucus… they have several.
Ask if the DSA entryism is a slow infiltration that provides cover.
Finally, ask if the DSA LEADERSHIP has openly identified COMMUNISTS.

As the Irainians continue to dig in the sand, the party’s almost over! 49 yrs, almost 1/2 my life time America has been threatened by these animals! They have killed thousands of their own people, & thousands of Americans! TRUMPS had enough, & so should every American. The delays, the lies the killings will be put to an end. Pickaxe Mountain will be a hole in the ground. You and I both know what’s in them planes. The Irainians cheer death to America, & now with the help of the Middle East, & Isreal, the cities will crumble, there electric will no longer exist They will live in the dark, for months to come, Lord knows where there gonna get water from? That plant will sit 1/2 way in the ocean. God bless our servicemen & woman & keep them safe. May the B 52s do a job on the desert rats TRUMPS gonna fry them like bacon.

Pierre, you must have watched the Correspondents’ Dinner last night; I feel your pain & ennui!

Trump painted himself, and us, into a corner; he has no way out. I think he is going to nuke them. He has no concern for human life, or the planet for that matter. We were doing okay before dipshit got involved. He and his cabinet of the incredibly stupid, greedy kowtowing puppets cannot leave fast enough. As it is, it’s going to take a long time for the world to accept us as any semblance of sanity. They will never look at us the same again. Really too bad.
Laurel says
I’ve noticed, on YouTube, that the far right’s new scare tactic is calling the Democrats “communists” and how they are threatening us normal people with the dreaded “DSA” (Democratic Socialist Agenda). You know, something that is so overwhelmingly popular that it could take over in a matter of seconds! Quick, grab your tinfoil hats!
Ah, yeah, new buzz words and buzz phrases since the old ones went stale. Getting closer to November will make the Democrats more heinous by Fox Entertainment’s *summations*. Good, ole Fox Entertainment, on top of everything that is disinformation.
Anyone watch Newsmax? Great way to laugh and shake your head at the same time!
