I hate that mf for all of the worry and pain he has put her through. She has been so stressed these last 4 years. I wonder how many heart attacks and strokes Trump has brought on. Mom is still scared and mad. Covid being so bad has her isolated and going crazy. All Trump had to do was support wearing masks and things would not be so bad. He is a mass murderer.

Mitch and Republicans trying to kill Medicare and SS deserve jail.

And left this country with Us kids in tow. The late 50s was a nightmare for her, a young military wife from South America. I have seen all her fears these past 4 years. It has been depressing to relive what my mama must have endured. Survivors can rest a little better now. Help is on the way.

especially the kids in cages decider and the asset thieves and the deep state destroyers and the campaign cash crooks and the civil rights usurpers and the veterans haters and the judge stackers and the convivial liars and the media sycophants and the sovereignty kidnappers and the polluter enablers and the covid liar-deniers and the midnight poop-tweeter too!

All of them!

murderer.

I just read this article called The Trump Plan For Mass Death is happening in front of our eyes.

I will post it but there could be a blocker on the site. If someone could post key paragraphs it would be helpful. I am having a little trouble with cutting and pasting.

For me, it's because I can identify with this woman. I put off collecting SS for four years so that I could collect the maximum amount, which means I had to work those four extra years.....only to have the rug pulled out from under me at that point? I don't have words enough to say how much I loath MF45....

I think I had a lot of pent up emotions I haven't dealt with yet.

We were on vacation with the boat on a weeklong fishing/beach trip. I had to walk out of the rental house. Can’t let the girls see my cry, you know. Although they knew.
