100th verse, same as the first.....

13 JANUARY 1775, DARIEN, GEORGIA: With Georgia participating in neither the First Continental Congress nor the nonimportation movement, residents of St. Andrew’s Parish pass resolutions in support of both, as well as a resolution expressing their “abhorrence” of slavery. To show a feeling of “general philanthropy for all mankind, of whatever climate, language or complexion,” they condemn “a practice founded in injustice and cruelty” and promise to work for its abolition “upon the most safe and equitable footing for the masters and themselves.” https://bsky.app/profile/revwar250.bsky.social/post/3lfnlys642p2r

That was the only way the game should end.

I go back to the days of the Hogs. There really were not a lot of good names floated if I recall. I think Red Hawks might be the best choice, but I kinda like RedHogs.

The spouse pulled up a documentary on The Jerry Springer Show. The show fairly quickly morphed from your typical Oprah/Donahue type talk show with extremely low ratings to Supermarket Tabloid TV to one that featured full out brawls on a regular basis. Much like talk radio from balanced issues to Rush to talk show hosts emulating morning zoos featuring right wing propaganda (moderate and liberal talk doesn't sell automobiles). I hate to say it but even sports talk went in pretty much the same direction. Serious discussion couldn't get the ratings, schlock and bits sold. Fox News began the same way, getting killed by CNN on straight news, the only way to make $$$ was to emulate AM talk radio. The whole has trickled down to the point no one is happy unless they complain that the world isn't going their way.

After thinking about it for a few days, I all in favor of a merger between the US and Canada providing both countries get to vote on the idea, there is a new constitution for the "new country" and an election is held to decide on an Executive Branch and Legislature. Courts will be part of the Constitution

Can't find a source either. It seem out of character for Carter to publicly do something like that. It sounds like another MAGA based false grievance

Love the pic https://bsky.app/profile/mamasissiesays.bsky.social/post/3lfg3ug3k722w Whoever runs The Carter Center socials & the photographer that captured this shot are national HEROES. There is something so beautifully poetic about a narcissist being eclipsed by a statue of someone else 😭

But your team still owned the House

Once again the Republican Way.....Promise them anything, but give them chicken**** and complain about the Democrats deficit

So what does this do for reducing the price of eggs? https://www.axios.com/2025/01/10/laken-riley-act-ice-detentions-beds?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=newsletter_axiossneakpeek&stream=top We're talking $3.2 Billion.

Just for grins. This strip is from 2016. Who needs guys like RFKjr and Musk when you have Rat.

Cue Three Dog Night .....(Never Been to Spain)

I think that may have been me after working Monday mornings at a couple of call centers. Not to mention actually volunteering for several years at Detroit Metro Airport. (This was prior to things like Facebook and the BlueBird of unhappiness app) It's amazing how many angry stupid people there are.

If nothing else, the conviction will be on the record. He has the distinction of being the first felon president
