I totally agree with this statement I read in one of my emails this morning: I support reasonable efforts to control our borders. I do NOT support the terrorizing and inhumane treatment of people that has been occurring. 8647 ********************************* Michael had a heart doctor appointment on Friday morning (2/20) in Pineville, but luckily they called at 8:30 AM and said they could go over all of the information on the phone and we didn’t have to come in…YAY!   I

Funny how our voting systems worked well for 44 presidents, and suddenly went bad when tRUMP lost an election. Democrat Senator Alex Padilla has firmly dismissed claims of widespread voter fraud, highlighting that such concerns are largely unfounded. He stated, “Donald Trump and Republicans continue to be hell bent on having us believe that voter fraud is rampant, but it’s simply not true. Voter fraud rate is 0.0003%. Our current laws are working.” Padilla stressed that th

President Donald Trump is raging privately at allies who called out his racist video post, according to CNN White House sources. Trump  posted a video to his Truth Social account last week that contained an image depicting President Barack Obama  and former First Lady  Michelle Obama as apes: ( 'Dead to me!' Trump in profane frothing rage at allies who slammed racist video, say CNN White House sources ) When does this guy ever get any presidential work done? He's always u

President Donald Trump dropped a new riff on his election lies by telling troops that he won the popular vote in 2016 “by a lot” — thereby inventing millions of votes he did not win. Trump has spent years  falsely claiming that the  2020 election was “rigged” against him and/or “stolen” from him, despite the fact that Biden defeated Trump in  an electoral landslide  that  has been reaffirmed over and over by state officials from Trump’s own party and dozens of court decisio

Even though we supposedly live in a free country, with freedom of speech, according to Republican sources, you are only allowed to use that free speech (without consequences) if you are saying nice things about the current administration. 8647 ***************************** I headed to the studio Saturday morning (2/7), anxious to get a customer quilt loaded up: I got that basted and kicked off the quilting and got my last quilt trimmed before we headed into Charlotte.  We

Rep. Jonathan L. Jackson: During Black History Month, on the very same day I stood as Co-Chair of the National Prayer Breakfast calling this nation toward unity, humility, and moral clarity, President Trump shared a racist meme depicting President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama as jungle apes. Let’s be absolutely clear: this is not humor. This is not politics. This is racism, raw, ugly, and dangerous. Deb: I have given up trying to figure out why people still supp

BREAKING: Trump’s new “TrumpRX” drug program gets IMMEDIATELY exposed as a scam! Surprise, surprise! The president held a big to-do yesterday at the White House where he boasted about how, for example, with his new Trump RX program, “they’re slashing the price of a common inhaler from $458 to $51, a difference of nearly 800%.” First, off, Donnie, that is not an 800% difference. It is 88%. But that’s not the point. While Trump billed the program as the result of his masterful

America for sale....again! Rapper Nicki Minaj posted a picture of President Trump's "Gold Card," a new immigration visa that allows wealthy foreigners to pay $1 million to expedite their application. Wonder where that million will end up (like anyone really has to ask...)? 8647 ******************************************** I was up early on Tuesday (1/27) to get cookies baked (peanut butter and almond sugar cookies): for the Fiber Nutz meeting I’m hosting in the afternoo

As the nation mourned the killing of VA ICU nurse Alex Pretti yesterday at the hands of federal officials in Minneapolis, President Donald J. Trump spent last night at the White House at a black-tie private screening of a documentary about First Lady Melania Trump. Amazon paid $40 million for the rights to the film just weeks after executive chair Jeff Bezos dined with Trump at Mar-a-Lago following the former president’s reelection and is spending another $35 million to promo

An American foreign policy, national security and political affairs analyst and commentator claimed world leaders view President Donald Trump as an “embarrassing idiot,” especially after his rambling speech Wednesday, January 21, at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.

President Donald Trump continued his obsessive attack on Minnesota Rep.

Shocking new video from the killer’s phone shows Renee Good’s kind last words — and the HORRIBLE things he said after he murdered her! The footage of Jonathan Ross’s personal cellphone has been release to the media, and it shows without a doubt that he killed Renee Good as punishment for refusing to be intimidated by him. Her last words were “It’s okay dude, I’m not mad at you.” Then she begins to drive away, not realizing that her kindness and forgiveness would be a death se

*** Sorry this is so late...I had problems up loading my pictures for a couple of days...finally got it resolved this morning. *** ************************************ As difficult as it is to believe that he could get any worse, Donald Trump has sunk to a new moral low. This time, however, the rebuke for his latest reprehensible behavior isn’t coming from Democrats in Congress, cable news hosts, or legal experts. It’s coming from the grieving children of a murdered lawmaker.

President Donald Trump has spent nearly a quarter of his second term at a golf club , according to a tracking website. The 79-year-old has visited golf clubs at least 79 times since taking office on January 20, 2025, or about 22.8 percent of the presidency, according to DidTrumpGolfToday.com . Since returning to office, Trump’s golf club visits have cost taxpayers an estimated $110,600,000 , according to the website. The tracker based that calculation on a 2019 Government Ac

During a roundtable with farmers at the White House earlier this month, Donald Trump blatantly turned a blind eye to the affordability crisis, making up the bald-faced lie that prices at the grocery store are "way down" while also claiming that inflation is "essentially gone." I can't believe people still believe this stuff, all you have to do is buy groceries and gas to know it's not true.. 8647 ***************************************** Michael and I are going on an Alask

The internet is branding tRUMP a big baby after his attempt at wishing everyone a Merry Christmas, that sent social media into a frenzy. Instead of promoting brotherhood, unity, and peace on the auspicious occasion, the POTUS criticized political opponents in his Christmas message. He took to X on the holiday and wrote, “Merry Christmas to all, including the Radical Left Scum that is doing everything possible to destroy our Country, but are failing badly. We no longer have O

During an interview earlier this month on POLITICO's "The Conversation" with Dasha Burns, Donald Trump went on a racist and unhinged rant insisting that birthright citizenship is meant only for the babies of slaves. While that was the original purpose, the Supreme Court expanded birthright citizenship to immigrants in United States v.
