I absolutely agree that our MSM is basically owned by the very people Trump would reward if elected, this the continued propaganda headlines and normalizing everything Trump says and does. Actual journalists are calling it out whenever they can, like you.
Kimberly! Did you see the head editor of the LA Times resigned today after the billionaire owner refused to allow the editorial board endorse Kamala Harris today? Amazing!!
I did not. That is amazing. Good for her. Unfortunately, her resignation won't change the LA Times...but it sure shines a light on the power hungry wealthy who care only about their own bottom line.
Having followed politics in general, since Trump more closely, and working with my own clinical knowledge of human psychology in a pain management setting, what is emerging lately has to do with the feeling sphere of human interactions. Republicans have been showing themselves to be a kind of dragnet scooping up whatever disappointments from the caves of residual resentment. (Boy that was some sentence -
no doubt emerging from my wonderful acupuncture appointment just now along with a gummy 🥰. Gotta keep it together till mid-November.)
Put another way, they appear to be somehow permanently jealous of the actual strides and actions that Democrats have taken for the last century in that almost boring service-oriented way that apparently escapes Republican sensibilities in general. And that goes along with a kind of inner sense they have of superiority because they follow all the rules that they make except that they don't. That must confuse the hell out of them; seems they create their own hell, biblical warriors of the Christian sort. What an enormous bind on the mind and heart.
There are so many factors involved, which is confusing by their sheer numbers - a close packed Venn diagram, so no wonder the sort-of ex-republicans have such a lot of work ahead of them. They have to reconfigure perhaps even how they were brought up, then got trapped in a matrix of unforgiving ideas, social niceties, a kind of Victorian mindset, and some kind of belief in the godliness of extraordinary wealth, race-sex-money-status- position, with a religious cover to it, along with frequent and handy selective mishandling of the biblical texts. The New Testament is a kind of set up for this confusion, with the creation of a man-God… graven images and all; a lot of folks can't handle the mystery of the unknown that well so they’ve got to make it embodied and concretized. The difference between that and Judaism can be set at the feet of the Council of Nicaea and beyond with power suddenly concentrated in the hierarchy of a few robed men. Give me a break.
I speak as a Reconstructionist Jew and also from some family experience here. Religion tends to become a handy tool for them that gets to be used in whatever way is necessary to hold up all the other stuff. As Shakespeare who very likely was a woman said, they are hoist by their own petard. I wouldn't want to be one of them.
Notice how when Trump is defending himself and say's being like Hitler is the farthest thing from the truth, he looks down and cannot look up and face the camera, unless I missed it. Of course, he can't because it's another lie.
Armande!! I'm going to have to watch Mighty Mouse again, as I do recall loving that show but I don't recall all those kitties you describe, OMG sounds purrfect!
Isn't Floofles just amazing? Her eyes pierce my soul!
Lorraine Evanoff: I am remembering from not quite seventy years ago -- mid-1950s. But I loved the kitties and NO WAY liked when Mighty Mouse harmed my LOVED KITTIES for a bunch of mice.
Floofles looks wise and deliberative, with a sly, very knowing look!
Those rightwingers won't pull ANYTHING on Floofles.
Floofles is street wise and has sober, feline judgment.
Personal circumstances have left me feeling very low at times.
The horrors in the Middle East get worse. At last there are a few signs of some tough love from the Biden administration - Netanyahu is out of control.
I sincerely hope your analysis of opinion polls proves correct. There’s definitely something wrong with them.
Keep up your excellent work. If America had more people like you, it wouldn’t be in this mess. 💙💙💙
I started this reply and it was erased for some reason. I was telling you about my best friend my mini poodle, Gianina who is 14 years old. She understands me like no one else does and I her. We have our special connection. She's kinda funky since she has alopecia and you see her freckles on her skin but it's really cute. And she's all mine.
I’m trying to keep her alive. She was sickly as a puppy. When I first received her after her flight from Oklahoma. That night, she became ill, and I had to feed her with a dropper of watered-down food to get some nourishment into her. Her itty-bitty tongue had turned blue which at the time I didn’t know what that meant. I kept her warm by having her sleep in my arm pit. She was that itty bitty. Since then, we have been inseparable. She now suffers from Pancreatitis and is on meds and a restricted diet so it’s like baby care all over again. The End. Take care of your wonderful kitty and yourself. It is going to be a rough ride. Hugs
The networks should stay away completely from pushing Political parties. They seem very, very biased at times. It's absurd how they can discuss over and over the same crap because they have nothing more of interest to talk about.
To call Puerto Rico a floating island of garbage is the nastiest thing I have yet to hear out of someone's mouth who wants to represent the United States of America. Totally classless.
I've watch Aerial America and realize what a great America we have and how many may take it for granted. But America is such a special place and to not know is a pity.
You have concisely made every argument. Brava!
Thrilled to see the gorgeous kitty in your home. Major accomplishment for both of you.
Gloria! As always, your kind words are high praise.
Floofles and I salute you, beautiful lady. 😻
Thank you for the link to the accomplishments. ❤️

Floofles is beautiful!!
She's the most beautiful Zen master of all, thank you AlbanianQueen.😻
thank you your hard working and a great patriot. So nervous waiting but I believe
The energy and anxiety are off the charts. Thank you for being such a strong voice, mom, love you!

That is indeed "some sentence" Robin!
You articulated beautifully the only kind of cognitive dissonance that can explain this cult-like madness.
Thank you for staying strong through all of this and not falling into the doomsday trap.
That is literally the playbook of these dark puppeteers.
Love reading your take on things.

He also has the exact demented facial expressions as Mussolini 😫
Lorraine Evanoff (Louise Moscow): Oh, my . . . Of course you speak volumes and I totally agree.
But the picture absolutely stopped me.
Floofles!
God, I love cats!
I love dogs, too. My granddaughter has a new puppy: Rosie. As in, "Rosie, you are my Posie! You are my heart's bouquet . . ."
But cats RULE.
When I watched "Mighty Mouse", I did NOT like the supposed "hero."
I rooted for all the cuddly cats! All the kitties wanted to do was play. And "Mighty Mouse" was physically abusive to the D-E-A-R kitties.
I never overcame my affection for these dear kitties.
For all of the wonderful Catwomen out there: A CAKE in JD Vance's face.
Floofle's expression kills me!
Floofle has fully absorbed your message and cannot believe people supporting the neo-Nazi! She simply cannot FATHOM in her CAT COMMON SENSE.
Floofle has exactly the right attitude.
Floofle's puzzled look was EXACTLY the right climax to this informative post.
Floofle RULES!
Keep enlightening us with your reflective, cat-reflections, Floofle!

CATS RULE! Floofles LEADS!
So spot on
🥰
😍
Thank you, Lorraine. I needed that.

Thank you for reading and commenting, Clare.
It's hard to tell, but Biden has been very hard on Netanyahu.
As you know, it's a very complicated situation, going back decades, but we can only try to keep them at the table.
She's winning, my friend, and it's all because Floofles cast the deciding vote!!!!
Ha! That's a fact, kitties FTW, Lolo!!
This race is NOT close! I expect an electoral landslide with long coattails. Good to see Floofles.
Agreed Charlie. Just don't tell the MAGA 😆💙
Fuck them!!😈🤣
What a gorgeous kitty! And I love the name.
She’s the most beautiful Zen master 😻
WONDERFUL!

Awww! I love Gianina! She sounds like a beautiful Zen master.
It's funny but we all get what we need to help us deal with life. Gianina is my comfort zoner at this time.
I’m trying to keep her alive. She was sickly as a puppy. When I first received her after her flight from Oklahoma.

They are delusional.
We are fighting and we will win! Thank you for this great shot in the arm! And omg FLOOFLES!! 🐈⬛💙🐾🐾💕😻🎉
We're definitely stronger together, we got this, Kate!💪🏻💙
It's a wonder America works as well as it does with the mentality it has in Washington. Very questionable.
It's because we have such a beautiful Nation with so many wonderful people in it that we have survived all the ups and downers.
What a wonderful thought. I wholeheartedly agree, Samantha!
I've watch Aerial America and realize what a great America we have and how many may take it for granted. But America is such a special place and to not know is a pity.
At least you know gf. Rest up.
