@NICKIMINAJ Sorry, this is not a side effect of the vaccine. It is called hydrocele. In adults, the two primary causes are injury or STD (chlamydia or gonorrhea). Probably your cousin's friend was taking one last marriage fling, picked up an STD, & is blaming vaccines. He needs an MD, stat.

The more I reread Judge Cannons ruling, and the more I review cases she cited, the clearer it becomes that she cant be considered a legitimate part of the judiciary. She doesnt consider herself bound by law, precedent, fact, logic. She doesn’t even truthfully state prior rulings!

Gee what a surprise. A January piece in the Wall Street Journal - five months ago - reported that Trump had been told by a key advisor to drop joint military exercises with South Korea. The advisor? Vladimir Putin. Trump knifed an ally to aid an enemy on the advice of Russia.

You can get a Covid test with results five times faster in Rwanda than in the United States. We are a failed nation.

If @DonaldJTrumpJr has disclosed the correct name of the whistleblower, that person must file a lawsuit against him for his use of familial connections to undermine federal law with the intent of punishing those who abide by that law.

Sometimes, I wanna scream at Trump supporters, "How can you not understand what's going on?! How can you not see the decades of damage we're facing cause of Trump?!" But I know they'll just laugh, say "liberal tears," drop a few insults, then go back to being brainwashed by Fox.

Reporters die covering terrorists. They get kidnapped, they get beheaded. They are in war. And Trump has the GALL 2 say media hides attacks?

When we have a White House that lies about what is in photos we can all see, how can they be trusted 2 tell truth on things we can't see?

Do people know impeachment does nothing? It is merely a charge. Clinton was impeached. So what? Do you think Trump will cooperate with an impeachment inquiry? Instead, this week start arresting people. Mnuchin, Ritter, Maguire & Lewandowski are poster boys for inherent contempt.

......and given that those of us who covered his business for decades - back when he was a democrat/reform party/whoever would have him - and always knew he was a crook, all I can say is, what the hell took so long?

I’m disgusted. @POTUS calls Roseanne to congratulate her on her TV show ratings, but ignored the death in line of duty of Special Agent Melissa Morrow. Ignoring the death of a brave FBI agent who investigated the 9/11 attacks. Raving about a sitcom. This man is not a president.
