Republican Mehmet Oz says Democrat John Fetterman is a trust fund baby. He is correct. But Dr. Oz, too, was born in Cleveland sucking a silver spoon.https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mehmet_ Oz He is the son of a surgeon who immigrated to America, and a wealthy mother.
Joe Biden
Standing before the back door to Independence Hall, President Joe Biden delivered a forthright political address, but did it in a slightly unusual way. Sounding almost like a cleric at the lectern, when Biden talked about the promise and purpose of America, he spoke in frankly patriotic terms that might

Polls I have checked agree that a small majority of Americans support some student loan forgiveness, but the percentage in favor declines as the amount forgiven inclines, such as this one conducted by left-lurching NPR. https://www.npr.org/2022/06/17/1104920545/poll-student-loan-forgiveness Here’s a key paragraph: “A

People — poor people mostly — are desperate to get to America. So desperate they will lie and distort the law to achieve sanctuary here. I don’t blame them for wanting to come here. I do blame them for subverting our law — whether they crash the border and run for the

Starting my rehab regime at Magee. You start with small steps, then follow with more steps. A journey of 1,000 miles . … “Please hold on to the rails,” says my PT princess, who took this excellent photo. Love the low angle.
Donald J. Trump
As you know, I post things that make me laugh, or make me think, and appearance here does not necessarily indicate agreement. This was too droll to pass up, given Donald J. Trump’s appearance in a New York courtroom. As you may know, in the past he often suggested
