I took a month with my first son.

I plan on taking about that with the son we're expecting in October.

There's a plethora of reasons why it's a smart move-

Bonding with your child in the most important period for that bond to form.
Reduced stress and work for mom.
It's easier to be sleep deprived and a zombie if you're not expected at work every morning.
Have time to set a routine and figure things out before going back to work.

Plus, it's become over abundant in the years since then that I don't get nearly as much time as I want with my son with a normal work schedule. I feel like I miss so much and that he grows so fast because the only real meaningful time with him is weekend days. That's made, in hindsight, that month with him in the beginning more valuable that I can possibly describe.

The local No Kings protest near me had more people than Trump's garish military parade.

What's that say about the current status of our country?

it's been proven time and time again that the Dems pay protesters. Some have even agreed to testify

Christ you childish dips(*&s will do anything to avoid acknowledging reality.

You and your POTUS are reviled the world over.

Time to admit you're a stupid piece of s(*& and start working on solving that problem.

BUT I WARN YOU....you're going to look even more illiterate...even as impossible as that sounds for the"poster child".

Can someone please interpret what this dips(*& is blathering about?

I only followed enough to see this moron unironically calling someone else illiterate and laughed.

you don't know jack --- squat about any economy
much less in a state almost foreign to wear many of you morons live.

I lived in Texas for years you stupid pile of s*(&.

Migrants filled a massive number of labor and service jobs. Y'all love the cheap services and goods that come from taking advantage of them but a significant number of you will talk massive s(&* about them whenever you can.

MY advice to one of the best governors in America is this....more razor wire and not just in the rio grande.

LOL the faux chest thumping of Texas is hilarious. Too bad you're too stupid to know it's a mirage.

But I do have a concern about Pres trump saying that -he- controls the share, and not the good people of the United States.

That line was the very reason I posted this.

Hilarity is bound to ensue as the Trumpers tell us what he really meant...

LOL it's ---- DEAD. Bleachers right by Trump's platform are EMPTY.

What an embarrassing tool job joke of a POTUS.

It's just as low a production value as you'd expect from the guy who served his major crypto donors airline food.

I tuned in to see if he was wearing some faux uniform.

He's not. Thankfully.

But they've done nothing but show him and not a single second of the actual parade yet. Probably because the crowd is likely non-existent. They keep showing the idiot and the drunk chatting the entire time and giving stupid thumbs up and the idiot giving half a&^ed salutes.

ANd it's just as tacky as you'd expect. I stopped watching when the played Barracuda right after thanking their sponsor, UFC.

What a debasement of our military and the people who serve in it.

Welcome to the New America.

This type of politically motivated violence is likely to become the norm.

Why is SS even there to begin with? Besides the fact that I don't think Noem deserves a cent's worth of public money for protection, salary, anything...

...but is it normal for the SS to protect cabinet members?

Because the deportations and raids were never about actually enforcing immigration law.

They were about using immigrants as a scapegoat to build state power and shred constitutional rights.

In the end, immigrants will still be here, they'll just be further pushed into 2nd class citizen status while our rights will have evaporated in the name of immigration enforcement.

Congrats, MAGA morons, you fell for a well described tactic to push fascism into the open. Idiots.

I stopped reading after I saw Robert Malone and Martin Kullerdorf.

Two grifting ghouls and utter pieces of s*&^ being added to this panel is a travesty. I'm sure the rest are no different.

The dangerous part is that after that happens, they'll identify themselves.

And the rational person acting as any rational person would will either be dead or will spend the rest of their lives in a federal prison, if not executed.

But that is likely the point. The moment a single Gestapo officer dies, the hammer drops harder than we'd like to imagine.

Other than that your equivalence is AWESOME in a Snoofy sort of way.

More ball gargling nonsense from Gutes Deutsch.

And shortly thereafter, we can expect the telecoms to start being subjected to all sorts of government interference.

Buying opportunity for those who before could no afford to buy.

Do you have any idea how depraved it is to be the kind of person who sees personal profit in everyone else's misery?

#3 cool non sequitur.

Traitors and leftist pawns no longer deserve one single benefit.

STFU you stupid pile of s*^%.

You, sir, are a traitor and a liar.

Bingo.

People who say things like that have obviously never flown into LA and have no clue how big the city actually is.

#22 | POSTED BY QCP

The list of things they have no clue about is both long and broad.

If only the fourth largest economy in the world could unburden red state s^%#holes of the benefits they leech of of them and their "socialist and burdensome" leaders.

Probably because I don't care enough at this point?

Or you could just say how to do it instead of being an a&&.

Brown and blacks first.

Undesirable whites or Asians will be next.

Trump has been refilling it.

At the same pace the Biden administration was.
