@BernieSanders A new poll says 85–90% of Americans want only citizens voting and reject non-citizen voting. Weird how those percentages only matter when they fit your narrative.

["Chiming In" @NowChiming]

Actions speak louder than words. Hillary conceded then spent years saying Trump was illegitimate and the election got stolen. Jeffries called him a fake president. Carter, Lewis, Nadler and a bunch of others either said the same thing or skipped the inauguration. You’re glossing over all of that so you can pretend only Trump whined. They said the polite thing for the cameras then spent years proving they didn’t mean it. Trump never changed his position. He’s been consistent the whole time. So which is it, they were lying when they said the right thing for the cameras, or Trump’s the only one who didn’t say one thing publicly and something else later?

America spends about twice as much per person as Canada (~$16,500 vs ~$7,300). Your system isn’t free, it’s rationed. Median wait from GP referral to treatment in Canada is 28.6 weeks (Fraser Institute 2025), with orthopedics and neurosurgery near a year. Calling people who want shorter waits and more choice not decent human beings doesn’t erase the trade-off.

@GovSherrillNJ It’s always the guns fault, never the shooter. I’m pretty sure this was a gun free zone. The gun should have know there is a law on the books it can’t go there. 🙄.

@asudeviljules @erikaxtc 😂 Something tells me Karen Clarkson might be the one issuing a public apology before this is all said and done. But hey, keep defending the $60 million underdog! 😂

["Chiming In" @NowChiming]

@NeonGroves76 @erikaxtc It’s called sarcasm! 😂 And grace doesn’t mean having no sense of humor. But by all means, if you want to defend Karen Clarkson, have at it! 😂

["Chiming In" @NowChiming]

😂 I agree! One millionaire complaining about another, and here we are, two regular people arguing over their problems. You have to appreciate the irony! 😂 But here’s where you lost me: I’m not defending either side. I’m defending the idea that a little grace and common decency should apply to everyone, regardless of their bank account. Apparently, that’s a pretty wild concept, too! 🤷‍♂️😂

["Chiming In" @NowChiming]

After reading some replies to my original comment, I’m amazed how many perfect people we’ve gathered here! My point was simple: EVEN IF Kelly Clarkson was 100% right, she had choices. Walk away, spend her money elsewhere, or contact management directly. Accountability doesn’t require broadcasting an encounter to millions of followers. Interestingly, in 2023, employees of The Kelly Clarkson Show alleged a toxic workplace and mistreatment. Did that mean Kelly and everyone working there deserved to have their livelihoods threatened? Of course not. Funny how grace works differently when you’re famous. And no, everyone shouldn’t be treated like a celebrity. Everyone deserves respect. Two people can experience the same conversation and interpret it differently. Maybe he was wrong. Maybe she was wrong. We weren’t there, but apparently some of you were! 😂 Accountability matters, but so does grace. If you've never had a bad day, had someone misunderstand something you said, or needed a little grace yourself, congratulations! And to the person who called this a “nonsense take” and a waste of time, you’re right. What a ridiculous idea, suggesting a little grace before publicly condemning someone. What was I thinking? 🤔 😂

["Chiming In" @NowChiming]

Let’s say Kelly is 100% right about how she was treated. Does that justify using a platform with millions of followers to publicly shame someone who’s just trying to make a living? Whatever happened to giving people a little grace? Maybe the guy was having a bad day. Maybe he’s dealing with something personally. Maybe he was completely wrong. Who knows? She could’ve simply contacted the store, explained what happened, and given someone an opportunity to make things right. Maybe even received a sincere apology. And maybe Kelly deserves a little grace herself. Maybe she reacted out of frustration without considering the consequences. That’s exactly my point. We all have bad moments. Unfortunately, the damage may already be done. We may never know the full truth about who was right or wrong. Situations like this happen to ordinary Americans every day. The difference is that most of us don’t have millions of followers to turn one unpleasant encounter into a public spectacle that could cost someone their reputation, job, or business. And for what? Something that might have been resolved with a simple conversation and a little grace? To me, class isn’t about how others treat you. It’s about how you choose to treat others, especially when you have the power to hurt them.

AOC and Mamdani were laughing at a 9/11 memorial while Americans were crying over their dead loved ones

These heartless grifters are the leaders of the Democratic Party

They do not care about our beloved country or our American values

NEVER FORGET who they are

Am 11. September 2001 rief eine 27-jährige Frau aus einem entführten Flugzeug an und sprach acht Worte aus, die ihre Familie niemals vergessen würde:

„Für euch wird es viel schwerer sein als für mich.“

Ihr Name war Honor Elizabeth Wainio.
Alle, die sie liebten, nannten sie Liz.

Zwei Tage zuvor war sie in Paris gewesen.
Sie war gerade aus Europa zurückgekehrt - von einer Reise, von der sie viele Jahre geträumt hatte. Sie besuchte die Hochzeit einer Freundin in Florenz. Sie spazierte über die Champs-Élysées. Sie ging in eine Kirche und zündete eine Kerze für ihre Großmutter an.

Einmal sagte sie ihrer Mutter, wenn sie jemals Paris sehen dürfe, würde sie glücklich sterben.

Sie war 27 Jahre alt. Eine aufstrebende Regionalmanagerin bei der Ladenkette Discovery Channel.

Am Morgen des 11. September 2001 bestieg Liz in Newark den United-Airlines-Flug 93 mit Ziel San Francisco.
An Bord befanden sich 40 Passagiere und Besatzungsmitglieder.

Um 9:28 Uhr stürmten vier Entführer das Cockpit.
Die Passagiere wurden in den hinteren Teil des Flugzeugs gedrängt. Doch an diesem Morgen geschah etwas Wichtiges - etwas, das die Geschichte veränderte.

Durch Telefonanrufe erfuhren die Passagiere die Wahrheit.

Das World Trade Center war bereits getroffen worden.
Das Pentagon war getroffen worden.

Das waren keine Geiselnahmen.
Das war eine Selbstmordmission.

Und die Menschen auf Flug 93 begriffen das, bevor es zu spät war.

In diesem Chaos reichte ein Fremder Liz ein Telefon.

„Ruf jemanden an, den du liebst.“

Sie rief ihre Stiefmutter Esther an.

Ihre Stimme klang ruhig. Gefasst. Klar.
Sie flehte nicht.
Sie schrie nicht.

Sie versuchte, die Frau zu trösten, die sie gleich verlieren würde.

„Am meisten schmerzt mich“, sagte Liz, „dass es für dich viel schwerer sein wird als für mich.“

I lost my Dad on 9/11. I don’t get a lot of reach on here. But I just wanted to share a picture. He was 39. I thought he was old. I’m now in my mid 30s and I still feel like a kid.

He was a great trader. He loved markets. He loved to find a stock no one was talking about.

The first trade I ever placed was on his work computer, where he let me click the button to buy AMAT. I loved going to the office with him. It was electric.

He was the best dad. We spent hours out in the street after dinner where he’d throw “pop flys” for me to catch. Eye on the ball.

He loved watching Sponge Bob and eating cereal, wrestling with us in the living room. He just loved being around his kids so much, and we knew it. I’m so grateful I got a dad like that.

Love you, Pops.
