A 4th of July Tradition

I watched my late father’s favorite movie, Yankee Doodle Dandy, once again today on the 4th of July. Has there ever been a more patriotic American than George M. Cohan? Has there ever been a less patriotic president than Donald Trump? I’m filled with anger knowing that this POS will be in office next year on the 250th anniversary of our republic. No president has done more to bring down democracy in our nation. He does not deserve to be in office. The SOB should be in prison. Fuck him and fuck his MAGA cult.

Just another reason to hate the Boys in Blue.

Nancy Pelosi is right, you "don't give away something for nothing."

It’s time for the Dems to select a new leader in the Senate.

Thousands of protesters on the mall?

Not so. The veterans weekend protest on the mall has been pretty much a bust. Despite headlines proclaiming “thousands” of protesters, I saw maybe two thousand on Friday. Expecting more on the weekend, yesterday’s crowd was not any larger. Local paper and news broadcasts cited “hundreds” of protesters. With heavy rain showers today I doubt there will be any large turnout. As a Navy Vietnam War era Corpsman I’m saddened. I think the organizers of this turnout are to blame for not getting the word out sooner.
