i wouldn't vote for any of these dopes (or the criminal afraid to debate) if you threatened me with an in-home Kid Rock concert.

Honestly, suprised no Florida parent has sued mask-wearing teachers for scaring their children.

In more #school day #news.

On one hand, once you read "private Christian school," all you need to know. On other hand, damn, buy the kid a gun?

The only way you are getting me to watch a Republican debate is if you mix up some Mad Max dynamics.

The losing two candidates have to fight to the death in the Thunderdome gradually reducing their numbers until there is a last one standing.

I hold Donald trump & every single Republican directly responsible for the killing of Laura Ann Carleton. She was murdered for hanging a rainbow FLAG outside her store. The hate that’s been sanctioned by the Republican Party against the #LGBTQ+ community, women, & black & brown people is simply evil. And it must be rooted out. May Laura Ann Carlton rest in peace & may her family find comfort.

#OnThisDay, 22 Aug 1943, Yvonne Cormeau parachutes into France to be a radio operator for the British Special Operations Executive. The SOE supported the French Resistance to Nazi occupation.

She worked for 13 months and was never captured. You can hear her story on the Imperial War Museum site. iwm.org.uk/collections/item/ob
