Waste of Money and Lives

 This pretty much says it all... We are spending 10's of BILLIONS of dollars, many American lives and the lives of innocent Iranians to keep Israel safe and the oil flowing.

So Much for America First...

I Want a Refund

 Trump Admin made citizens and businesses pay BILLIONs in illegal tariffs...(ie IMPORT TAXES)

And now the Trump Admin is fighting to keep the money from the rightful owners. Why are MAGA folks okay with government keeping their money?

Here We Go Again :-(

 So much for America First... It looks like we did not learn from Vietnam, Afghanistan or Iraq... I wonder how much this distraction will cost in tax dollars and American lives?

Lies is SOU

 I decided that listening to Trump lie, complain and threaten for almost 2 hours would have been a waste of my time. Thank heavens for Netflix...

Save Act

Just a Reminder. The ID required in the Save Act is NOT what you show to buy beer... And even those fancy Really IDs are not good enough by themselves...

ICE Changes / Shutdown

 Hopefully they get rid of the masks and random non-judicial warrant raids. We need law enforcement, not ruffians in the streets.

The Good Samaritan

 MAGA's interpretation of The Good Samaritan.

And a reminder of the Bible Belt Claims to Fame... Don't blame me... I am MN Lutheran (ELCA)... We are about as moderate pragmatic, caring and tolerant as Christians come... We take the Good Samaritan to Heart.

Happy Bday to Me

Alex Pretti Murder and FED LIES

 Will gun right’s advocates bow to Noem’s lies? Or defend the man who carried a legal gun with a legal permit to do so? Will they be okay if a FED guns them down someday they are protesting?

Apparently Trump wants you to leave guns home also.
