Think of it this way, he's paving the otherwise rocky road for a woman to be elected President.

Oh, I am.

It broke my heart the other day when my daughter asked if there had been a female POTUS and I said no. Her face ...

Then she asked if there had been a girl Red Ranger and I said yes! That made her feel better and off she went devouring that media.

The OG Pink Ranger is still the best female Ranger. Her Ranger Slayer version (from Shattered Gird) is especially epic , but I digress.

Pink is just another shade of red after all.

New Polls Show Trump Down By Double Digits As GOP Officials Insist Polls Are Meaningless

A new poll puts former Vice President Joe Biden 14 points ahead of President Trump, the same result as a CNN poll from last week that prompted the Trump campaign to demand a retraction, while a conservative pollster puts Biden up 12 points, but state and local Republican Party officials are adamant that the polls will not be predictive of the result in November.

Wasn't there a Pink Ranger that was the leader in the US version?

My daughter hates the color pink. She loves anytime a purple ranger shows up and loves the current US Yellow Ranger because they share the same first name.

She's all about the current Green Gem Ranger in Japan, though. She's got a cool car Zord to boot.

Man found dead in apparent suicide outside store in Shady Acres, police say

A man was found dead Monday in an apparent suicide outside a store in the Shady Acres community, Houston police said.

His body was located outside the store at 9:05 a.m. in the 2500 block of Ella Boulevard, south of Interstate 610 North, police said. A video circulating on social media apparently shows the man hanging from a tree in a field at that location. A group of emergency vehicles, including a Houston police car, was on the scene.

Something sinister is going on. Really sinister.

Right after Rand Paul tanked Kamala Harris & Cory Booker’s Anti-Lynching Bill, five Black men are found hanging from trees. And white people call it suicide.

And if women stopped having mammograms, there wouldn’t be any breast cancer. Oy vey! The stupidity....IT BURRRRRRRRRRRRRRNS!

The idea that COVID is killing off conservatives is pretty gross

Take it up with your party for being goddamned indifferent to them dying.

, but also inaccurate.

Thus far... but it's now hitting the rural areas. Your party's negligence and incompetence is making this a reality.

Have fun trying to reconcile it.

That's very telling of Trump's personal relationship with medecine, if no doctor tells him he has dementia, he's in perfect health!
For him, ignorance is bliss.

Interesting Times....and not in a good way

Utah House candidate reports finding apparent explosive device underneath car

WEST VALLEY CITY — A man vying for a seat in the Utah House of Representatives reported finding an apparent explosive device under a vehicle at his home after it detonated, creating a loud bang and smoke, earlier this month.

West Valley City police opened the investigation after Robert Burch, president of Utah’s chapter of the Afro-American Historical and Genealogical Society and Democratic Party candidate for Utah’s House District 30, filed a report regarding the incident on June 2.

Speaking to reporters about the incident nearly two weeks later, Burch said he isn’t sure if it was an attempted attack on his campaign or because of the color of his skin — or if it was a joke that someone thought would be funny. The incident remains baffling to him.

"I’ve gone through a lot of things in my life where we’ve had people with ill will towards me, my family and other people, but I think that was just a product of the times. Unfortunately, I just think right now, we’re dealing with that same kind of feelings from that time, the ‘60s and the ‘70s, when so much of this was going on; otherwise, I can’t say why anyone would do it," he said Saturday.

I've had the thought based on, y'know, everything happening right now that the Republican Party have forgotten how to govern. They've also forgotten how to act like representatives of us in Congress, and apparently have taken to responding to criticism by trying to call people out into impromptu wrestling matches, like we're living in a constant episode of Monday Night Raw.

I'm not even f***ing kidding. Senator Ted Cruz is trying to imagine-book Congressman Jim Jordan into a match against motherf***ing Hellboy right now because he s*** talked a fail-son Congressman from Florida, Matt Gaetz, who's in the same heel stable.


These friggin' lunatics. This is what they're doing while tens of thousands of people are dying from Covid-19, and police violence continues to permeate the headlines. A bunch of f***ing children.
