@andybeshearky.bsky.social a word to the wise. Please stop talking. Every syllable that comes out of your mouth only digs the hole deeper.

This week much is on the line for both Democrats and Republicans and how they respond to rapidly shifting and seismic events could impact the outcome in November as well as set the landscape for 2028:
#Trump will see this as a win for the US but it’s a huge loss for the nation as it shows we are no longer trustworthy and do not honor agreements. Especially when wealthy donors financial outlook is at stake. #Canada www.politico.com/news/2026/07...

Something is "off" with the Trump Supreme Court and we all sense it. Why was Clarence Thomas wandering the halls of Congress and claimed he was just taking a "walk"? We know he's corrupt, so being suspicious is natural.
