I just checked the presidential election results for Alabama for the entire century. Fairly consistently 60-62% of the voters choose the Republican candidate. One time - 2024 - it was 64% for the Republican.

It's easy to see why Democratic candidates don't invest much into visiting Alabama.

Devaluing life, unfortunately, is a very Russian thing.

I’m surprised people can get longer prison sentences for theft in Ukraine than they get for beating someone to death. If I were in Ukraine’s government, I would seriously look at that.

“The wrongs which we seek to condemn and punish have been so calculated, so malignant and so devastating that civilization cannot tolerate their being ignored because it cannot survive their being repeated.”

Meryl Streep is 77 this year. I wish I had looked as good as she does now when I was 27. Beautiful lady.

A 75-year-old woman was on a video clip today. She looked good and acted normal. It made me realize that we look at people like Trump and McConnell, who are very old for their age, and think that’s what’s normal.

McConnell had polio, Trump bad habits, so both are 10 years older than their years.

4 people were injured after about 10 attacks on two districts with drones, artillery, and an aerial bomb, the Dnipro RMA reported 😭

💥 Enemy Air Defense Losses: Summary for 01.04 – 21.04

Over 21 days, 27 targets were systematically taken out:

🟢 11 “eyes” (radars and detection systems).
🔴 16 “teeth” (SAM systems and launchers).

The occupiers are losing visibility and air cover. More to come!

These are the stories of animals harmed by Russia’s war in #Ukraine - ones I have written about over the years. Sadly, there are many more.

Do you remember them? Which story stayed with you the most?

This is what the "liberation" by the Russian occupiers looks like. A 3-ton Russian aerial bomb struck Kostiantynivka. An entire block of apartment buildings was leveled to the foundation. Footage provided by aerial reconnaissance from the "Phoenix" border guard unit.

The Russians dropped FAB bombs on Sloviansk twice overnight. A school was destroyed, and 18 high-rise buildings, 3 private homes, 4 stores, and a pharmacy were damaged, according to the Military Administration.

I suspect that most assaults are by dates or “friends.”

I hope I live long enough.

I wonder if that is the queen.

These meerkats get it. 🙌

I believe Congress has to declare war in 60 days or, if they weren't so weak, they could rein this "SMO" in.

I don't see Congress doing much until January, and then only if both chambers of Congress flip and Democrats can get pointed in the right direction. With pro-Israel Schumer, that's a maybe.

He's getting rid of all the women.

I've always wondered if a majority of women are assaulted sometime in their lives, but men say they've never assaulted women, are there just one of two men out there who are assaulting everybody? They must be very busy.

Best explanation I've seen.

In a nutshell. 😊

We all know that Trump does what makes him look good today, what makes him look like a winner today. He doesn't have the ability to judge long-term impact.
