Do try to stay current with the actions of the President.

Or, do you want me to start asking about fmr Pres GW Bush?


All that aside, the apparent, and failed, deflection attempt of your current alias speaks volumes about the weakness of the position it holds on the current actions of Pres Trump.

Double standards and all that.

I've outlined what I think is the root cause and it's been building for decades. Overturning Chevron' was a great start toward moving the government back toward the people.

Are you unable to post anything without lying?

Unfortunately reading a map is too advanced for DumbWaiter.

Playing the US National Anthem at the Raptor's/Clippers game didn't go over well in Toronto. I applaud the Clippers wearing "Black History" t-shirts, though. We all have to shove Trump and his "proud boys" back into the closet. I wish we could eliminate their toxicity completely.

That's our Jeff. Deflecting attention away from his dear leader Trump. Can't hold Trump responsible for ANYTHING. It's par for the course for him.
