It's in British Columbia but there are more than 50 mountains there so I'm not sure which one this is.

youtu.be/KBofHkLqXZE?... One of the best little videos ever. The camaraderie between the two leaders, the veteran's unabashed emotion, Volodymyr's sweet, humble response, and Justin beaming at both of them. (He is undeniably gorgeous.) Take a few seconds to watch it, friends. It'll lift your heart.

I worked closely with Saginaw Inter Tribal Council in Michigan. I advocated for substance abuse clients but also did things like organizing pow wows. When I told a speaker/dancer at a pow wow that a mutual friend had died he said "He walked on, huh?" Can't tell you how deeply that resonated with me.

Yes, it is. I just saw him described as "the greatest athlete that ever lived" and I thought that was a perfect description! He was an exceptionally big horse but it's hard to believe his full stride measured just short of 25 feet!! That's more than four times my height!

Yes!! What feels unbearable to me is him just dropping dead after a life of doing every evil thing he wanted with ZERO consequences. If he's locked up he'll be frustrated and paranoid. A nice cage is still a cage. And you're spot on right about that cabal of freaks he calls a "cabinet" too!

He wants more than anything to pretend he's NOT Cadet Bone Spurs, the cowardly bunker bitch. Hence the laughably staged "assassination attempt" where he struck the most ridiculous pose imaginable. And two people were shot dead. He's a soul-less piece of sewage. A bottomless pit of neediness.

Ten years ago I SO wanted Bernie in the White House. So did a lot of other people. He ALWAYS draws bigger crowds than anybody -- especially when we're under the kind of threat we are today. He's the only politician I trust 100 percent.

So humiliating that all the European leaders at the W.H. Summit had to hold their noses because the Orange Failure simply reeks. The Italian president was so horrified that she moved her chair as far away from him as she could. Do we really have to add "potty trained" to the POTUS job description?!

An oligarchy must: hoard the wealth, own the means of production, own the means of communication. Our primary source of communication sucks.
