As I reflect on the current state of affairs in the realm of politics, particularly within the Republican party, the recent announcement of another House Republican quitting with the timing of his departure strategically set for maximum chaos has left me both intrigued and concerned. With Gallagher’s resignation, the GOP is now left with just a one-vote majority in the House, adding further fuel to the already burning fire of dysfunction within the party.
It’s astonishing to witness the self-destruction of the Republican party unfold before our very eyes, akin to a sinking ship with rats fleeing in desperation. The GOP’s inability to pass any legislation, coupled with internal strife and power struggles, has created a political landscape that is ripe for chaos and uncertainty.… Continue reading
It is truly devastating to hear about the mass shooting that took place at the concert in Russia, resulting in the tragic loss of over 100 innocent lives. The scenes of families lying together in their final moments, mothers hugging their children, are heart-wrenching and unimaginable. The evil it takes to commit such heinous acts is beyond comprehension.
The fact that Russia has arrested the suspected attackers, claiming they have links to Ukraine, raises many questions and doubts. The whole narrative seems murky and filled with propaganda. From Putin blaming Ukraine in his address to the nation, to the alleged confessions of the suspects, there is a cloud of uncertainty and manipulation hanging over the entire situation.… Continue reading
I cannot wrap my head around the fact that the highest office in the United States was held by someone who would rip up documents after reading them. Not only is it a blatant disregard for the importance of the information contained in those papers, but it also shows a lack of respect for the fundamental principles of governance and accountability.
The idea that White House aides had to painstakingly collect the torn shreds of documents and tape them back together so they could be archived is mind-boggling. It speaks volumes about the character of Donald Trump and the kind of leadership he exhibited during his time in office.… Continue reading
Zelensky says Putin seeking ways to divert blame for concert massacre near Moscow”. The recent tragedy that unfolded at the concert hall in Moscow, where innocent non-combatants paid the ultimate price for the incompetence or malice of those in power, has once again brought to light the manipulative tactics employed by Putin. Despite being warned by U.S. intelligence about an imminent attack, Putin chose to ignore the warning, leading to a devastating loss of life. The disturbing footage released by ISIS, showcasing up-close executions, leaves no doubt as to who was behind this heinous act. Yet, in a reality distortion field that seems to engulf Russia, Putin is attempting to divert blame onto Ukraine, spinning a web of lies to build support for himself.… Continue reading
As a woman living in Texas, the recent news about the Texas medical panel refusing to provide a list of exceptions to the abortion ban has left me feeling disheartened and frustrated. Hearing about the experience of a couple in Tennessee who lost their baby at 20 weeks due to complications, and the stringent process they had to go through in case of a medical emergency, highlights the heart-wrenching reality that many women face.
The vague guidelines issued by the Texas medical panel regarding exceptions to the abortion ban, advising doctors to meticulously document their decision-making process but providing few specifics, only adds to the confusion and distress for women seeking critical medical care.… Continue reading

The recent news of former Trump aide Peter Navarro beginning his prison sentence after a historic contempt prosecution has sparked a myriad of reactions and emotions. It’s fascinating to see the lengths to which some individuals will go to protect their ideology or their leader, even if it means facing the consequences of their actions.
Navarro’s attempt to avoid a mere 3-4 months in jail by burning through his retirement savings and taking his case all the way to the Supreme Court seems like a futile move in retrospect. Choosing this hill to die on, as one commenter puts it, seems almost absurd when considering the gravity of the situation.… Continue reading

The news of this barbaric attack has left me in a state of shock and disbelief.
