When eldest daughter Vicki showed she needed a piano, I took my old DINKY toys to Sothebyโs Toy Auction & raised cash to buy a new piano.
Delighted to share with you eldest grandson Ethan on same piano. Enjoy as much as I did.

Trump was asked by the finally free press how it feels to be a loser and ran away faster than Stephen Miller at sunrise.
Sky News: "How does it feel being a loser?"
This is possibly the fastest I have ever seen the Cheeto tinged arsewipe move...that was one helluva skedaddle!
That exo-skeleton is obviously set to 'Power Ranger' mode...warms the cockles, you know?

While Melania Trump is playing nice in the White House with Putinโs envoy, Russia dropped nine bombs on a school and shelter killing almost 100 Ukrainians.

๐จ EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas says the pressure to end the war has been placed on the wrong country.
โThereโs one aggressor and one victim. The pressure should be on the aggressor.โ
Why is Ukraine being asked to make concessions while Russia continues making demands?
Peace should begin with holding the invader accountable - not pressuring the victim to surrender.

We now have intel that another strike is being prepared โ targeting our energy sector, bridges across the Dnipro, and civilian infrastructure. The Air Force and the Armed Forces of Ukraine overall are preparing to protect us. We need interceptor missiles for our Patriots. Every agreement matters, and every day counts when it comes to deliveries. We're asking our partners very strongly: please don't put off deliveries.
Please stay safe, given the threat of missile attacks. Glory to Ukraine!

Russia is bombing terminally ill children.
This is not war.
This is pure, deliberate cruelty.
A place that exists for one reasonโto give critically ill, dying children a shred of peace and comfort in their final daysโwas turned into a war zone by russian drones. At the House of Butterflies hospice in Chernivtsi, staff had to haul these kids, many on life support and unable to move, out of their beds and into shelters while air-raid sirens screamed, russian drones roared overhead, and nearby strikes lit the night with fires. russia is a cruel evil terrorist state! We can never hate them enough
#PUTIN uses #FPVDrones - first person view Drones
to murder #Ukrainian civilians. Throughout this war
started by #PUTIN on February 24, 2022 he has fired
at targeted civilian & not military targets. In the 657
days of the 2nd#TrumpTerm #PUTIN fired
109,000 #AttackDrones alone!

Yes, #Ukrainian troops kill #Russian troops on the

#PUTIN deliberately โguidesโ his Missiles, Drones,

Iโm glad to see the global outrage over this debacle, it looks like the Kremlin is writing American foreign policy and the White House is reading from their script.
This isnโt diplomacy, itโs grovelling fealty.
This is the same regime that just bombed our power station and murdered 15 people waiting for a train. The same regime that has taken nearly 20,000 Ukrainian children and runs a system of torture.
Now at the White House House

Wow. This is amazing!
The incoming House Oversight Committee chairman @RobertGarcia just outlined the four main investigations that Democrats will be opening when they take back the house in January.
Itโs about time!!

Prince Harry is his Mother's son. They all saw it clearly, until a hate campaign was launched to try and put he, and Meghan back in their place.
Suddenly everything they once loved him for, or once supported him through, became a stick to beat him with.
WHY? Because he dared to marry a biracial American woman. Because he, and his wife, shone brighter than the rest. Because they dared to refuse the job as royal scapegoats and doormats. Because they did what 99.9% of humans would do and spoke out to defend themselves against the lies that were allowed to circulate in the media. Because they told their own story and reclaimed their own lives.
He always has, and always will be, the best of the family he came from.

๐จ Putin: โRussia has never threatened anyone and does not threaten anyone.โ
Ukraine invaded. Cities destroyed. Civilians killed. Nuclear threats against Europe.
Apparently, Putinโs definition of peace is simple: Russia can invade your country, bomb your cities, and threaten your existence - but youโre not allowed to call it a threat.
At this point, even Orwell would struggle to keep up with the Kremlin.

- Donald Tusk:
"It is Russia that has rejected every credible peace proposal. Ukraine did not start this war, and Ukraine is not an obstacle to peace.
No one should pressure President Zelensky to make territorial concessions. We must pressure Russia to end its aggression.
The free world must remain united. Any division in support of Ukraine is a gift to Moscow and a risk to our own security.โ

Great man
thank you for your support ๐ซก

Just shocking that Trump invited to the White House an emissary from Putin, a brutal dictator, who has sustain an imperialist war of annexation and terrorism in Ukraine for nearly five years.
At the White House, Russia's Envoy Praised an ICC Suspect. Meanwhile, Europe Scrambled Fighter Jets.

This really just happened. Trump signed an executive order saying no one in the future can make major modifications to the Oval Office or Cabinet Room without Congressional Approval.
This comes after he literally tore apart an entire wing of the White House without Congressional approval.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Trump signed a proclamation (not an executive order) designating the Oval Office and Cabinet Room a national monument. The text does not require congressional approval for modifications and explicitly allows presidents to redecorate.

I put together a list of everything that broke the back of Trumpism.
The gas prices.
The unsanctioned war.
The massive corruption.
The incompetence.
The tariffs.
Playing nice with Russia.
The cruelty against American citizens.
The overly aggressive deportations.
The accidental arrests of American citizens who were Hispanic.โจThe ballroom.
The reflecting pool that doesnโt reflect.
The Qatari 747.
The aggressive redistricting push.
The threats against our allies.
By the way, Iโm scratching the tip of the iceberg.
