45. Oh WOW! Talk about "a lovely parting gift"!

Mon Jan 20, 2025, 02:55 PM

Monday

I’d worried that it wouldn’t happen for him. I’m glad it did.

Another hearty “Thank You!” to Joe Biden. I’m starting to think he’ll wind up being my all-time favorite President.

A genuinely kind and compassionate man. And he’s handed off a healed and newly reinvigorated country to that Orange Thing. Wonder how soon that noble gift will be completely torn up and shat upon?
