@AndrewLewixx House will be paid off when I'm around 75. Sometime after that if what little I have can cover the rest for a couple years. Then I'm good with a road trip to nowhere when the money runs out.
Because she is a communist and they are moving the overton window
First you must deny it, everyone hates communists
Second you refuse to answer as more people embrace it
Third you openly declare it with pride
Fourth youre loading up people to the gulags
@Timcast Gotta love the leftist worldview. Everyone somehow segregated by race, ethnicity, sex, etc... yet I can "identify" as anything - even randomly and revolving - and everything is subjective. I, clearly, am able to park there as a pregnant black woman.
@Kristinartz Yep. Had to do it. Nowadays, there are rarely textbooks at all or just one class set for all the day's classes. Mine get more covered in penis doodles every year.
Today, on my final day as Director of National Intelligence, I’m releasing never-before-seen communications and documents exposing how Dr. Fauci provided millions in US taxpayer dollars to fund dangerous gain-of-function research at the Wuhan lab, worked with politicized elements within the Intelligence Community to suppress the truth about his actions and hide the virus’ lab-leak origins, and lied to Congress while under oath in 2024. It’s time you know the truth.

"Deplorables" didn't just offend people.
“Deplorables” made a group of people believe that the Democratic party wasn’t seeing them.
Appalachian culture is genuinely rich. Folksy music with roots that go back centuries. Mountain traditions, storytelling, a sense of place and community that people in cities often spend their whole lives trying to manufacture artificially.
These are people with a very specific culture that the national political conversation largely ignored until it became convenient to mock.
When Hillary Clinton used that word, it landed the way it did not just because it was condescending, but because it told an entire region that the people running for president didn't see them clearly enough to understand what they were dismissing.
Trump understood something important in 2016, and he reinforced that with Vance in 2024.
The areas around Youngstown, Portsmouth, and throughout Eastern Ohio that had been reliably Democratic for decades - the union households and working-class voters - didn't switch parties because their economic interests changed.
They switched because they stopped believing the Democratic Party was actually paying attention to them.
You can disagree with where that realignment led politically, but understanding why it happened matters a lot more than being surprised that it did.
