HAVE YOU EVER HAD A HELICOPTER?

DID YOU EVER BUY A NEW ONE?

Former Congressman Matt Cartwright was demonized by the MAGA wing and other Republicans for using a plane he owned back and forth to DC. But as far as I know, he never got a new plane, just made do with the old reliable law firm plane.

News came today that the new Congressman in the 8^th bought a new helicopter. Who the hell is advising this guy? We have one of the most economically challenged districts. He’s cut Medicaid. SNAP and Public TV. He is aligned with a guy who is s screwing the American people. Take a look at this.

 

TRUMP PR WOMAN NEWS

 

Hey unlike sexually obsessed Republicans I have no problem with baby mamas. I have more of an issue with baby daddies who renege on their responsibilities. I also can’t stand when hypocrites tell US what to do to save our ternal souls from the fires of hell. They hide behind the maxim of “Family values”.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt loves to preach about “family values” and “traditional America.” But here’s the thing… she doesn’t exactly fit the mold she promotes.

👶 She had her baby in July 2024.  It was healthy and good.

💍 She didn’t marry the father — wealthy real estate developer Nicholas Riccio — until January 2025, just days before Trump’s inauguration.  Convenient.

📅 He’s 32 years older than her. She’s 27. He’s 59. That’s old enough to be her dad.  Ah, no argument here. I’m a big proponent of going young.

Before this relationship? No record of big money or self-made success. She lost a congressional race, left her campaign over $300,000 in debt, and worked in low level political staff jobs.

Yet she still gets up on a podium and lectures the country like she’s the moral compass for America.

It’s not about judging her personal life — it’s about calling out the hypocrisy. If you’re going to preach “traditional values,” maybe try living them first. (LuLac, Facebook) 

 

JIM LOVELL 

SPACE

HERO, DIES

James Arthur Lovell Jr. was an American astronaut, naval aviator, test pilot and mechanical engineer. In 1968, as command module pilot of Apollo 8, he became, with Frank Borman and William Anders, one of the first three astronauts to fly to and orbit the Moon. He then commanded the Apollo 13 lunar mission in 1970 which, after a critical failure en route, looped around the Moon and returned safely to Earth. He acted in a few movies, such as The Man Who Fell to Earth (1976) and Apollo 13 (1995; uncredited).

Lovell was not selected by NASA as one of the Mercury Seven astronauts due to a temporarily high bilirubin count. He was accepted in September 1962 as one of the second group of astronauts needed for the Gemini and Apollo programs. Prior to Apollo, Lovell flew in space on two Gemini missions, Gemini 7 (with Borman) in 1965 and Gemini 12 in 1966. He was the first person to fly into space four times. One of 24 people to have flown to the Moon, Lovell was the first to fly to the moon twice, and the only human to have done so without landing. He was a recipient of the Congressional Space Medal of Honor and the Presidential Medal of Freedom. He co-authored the 1994 book Lost Moon, on which the 1995 film Apollo 13 was based. Lovell was featured in a cameo appearance in the film.

Lovell and the crew of Apollo 8 were most famous for this Christmas Eve message from space.
