Wiggles desperately looking for a forever home






Please tell everyone. I just want to live.


Wiggles has been in the St. Louis animal shelter for 14 years, and, although well taken care of, she would love to go home with someone, spending the rest of her life in a loving home.


Wiggles has a large tumor that can't be removed due to her age. But, "despite having those issues, the shelter said Wiggles is a sweet girl and loves everyone." She would make a great companion for anyone looking for a furry friend. Read more here.

Animals deserve a good life


Please tell everyone. I just want to live.

 

Did you know the average "holding period" for animals at your typical Humane Society before they are euthanized is only 5 to 7 days? Some may hold them longer but that would be out of the goodness of their hearts. This does not include animal rescues, which are no-kill organizations; these are non-profits and welcome your donation. What I am leading up to is you might consider visiting your local Humane Society when you are ready to adopt a dog or cat.

Charlie Boy and Croissant are in the Jackson County, Michigan Animal Shelter, 3770 Spring Arbor Road, a shelter/rescue, but each is in a special needs situation that requires the right forever home. Charley Boy is a 5-year-old Jack Russell Terrier who is totally blind but still lives his life and doesn't cause him to be worried and afraid of new people. We had a blind cat and it was amazing how she managed to navigate our house, learning most of this on her own.

MLive.com says, "Croissant is a 6-year-old male cat who is big and beautiful just like a fancy French pastry. Croissant’s owner died and he was left abandoned in the house." Croissant likes people, and with a little cuddling and re-socializing, he will be a great pet for the right family. For those of you living in the Jackson, Michigan area, here are some specs. from Jackson County Animal Shelter...
"A meet-and-greet with a dog is mandatory. A cat room walk-through is available to test reaction. The dog adoption fee is $150 for medium and large dogs and $200 for puppies and small dogs, which includes vaccinations, microchip and sterilization."

"Cat adoption fees are $60 for one cat, $80 for two, which includes applicable tests, vaccines and spay/neutering."

Countdown to January 20, 2021

 


Only one day left and apparently Donald Trump is afraid of legal repercussions if he pardons himself, family, and Republican Congress members who helped incite Capitol riots. Now, just go away tomorrow T-rump, and let Joe and Kamala fix what you have done.

Countdown to January 20, 2021



 

Only 2 says let and Trump hasn't pardoned himself yet. Will he?

Latest News Digest/Page 3


Capitol riots enablers Republican Sens. Ted Cruz of Texas and Josh Hawley of Missouri, already the target of congress for helping to incite the Capitol riot, have...
"frantically searched for a political sweet spot: They’ve tried to condemn the violence without retracting or apologizing for their active role in sustaining the big lie that incited it."

But the horror is actually seen in the video that accompanies this piece. Scroll down for the video and, folks, it is a MUST WATCH! Here's the article: Appalling new video of the rioters is a big problem for Trump’s GOP enablers

Trump is headed for debtors prison when he leaves office. In the same period of time he spent hallucinating in the Oval Office, loans in the hundreds of millions of dollars will come due, and there may be nowhere to go for more. The Hill says debt holders have...
"backed away from business arrangements with the Trump Organization, sapping future income from the debt-laden president. Three banks have announced they’re cutting ties with him — including Deutsche Bank, his biggest creditor — limiting his ability to refinance debt."

There's more...

"Trump owes creditors at least $315 million, mainly through mortgages for Trump Organization hotels, resorts and golf courses, according to his 2020 financial disclosure. A Forbes analysis of Trump’s finances, however, found that Trump likely owes at least $1 billion to creditors, some of which he has personally guaranteed."

The financial industry is calling him,  'Toxic Trump. Read more:  Debt cloud hangs over Trump post-presidency

 

Donald Trump met with his elite advisory duo, Ivanka and Jared, to discuss some 100 pardons he has planned including...
"white-collar criminals, high-profile rappers and others. It will likely include some pardons aimed at advocating for criminal justice reform, as well as controversial pardons for political allies."

Reportedly, there are those who have paid for pardons. Business as usual. Read more: Trump preparing another 100 pardons, commutations beforeleaving office: reports


Billy Graham was a religious icon that most anyone could admire, even atheists. His son, Franklin Graham, on the other hand, has a twisted mind that has led his followers down the trail of Donald Trump idolatry. Although Graham said after seemingly criticizing Capitol rioters, "I don't think it was the president's finest moment." Then, the article exclaims...
"But Graham said he doesn't expect the tumult at the Capitol to deter evangelical Christians from supporting Trump."

There's more...

"I don’t think he had any understanding in that moment of what was going to take place," he said. "None of us did."

Franklin Graham, like so many of his pathetic religious followers, have helped make Donald Trump the maniac he is today. And this is why so many Americans have left the church. Read more: Evangelicals and other faith leaders still support Trump after deadly US Capitol attack


Time for a quick compendium on Donald Trump's lies racked up in his four years in the White House. AlterNet leads with this...

"For the last four years, fact-checkers have had their hands full keeping up with President Donald Trump's unprecedented level of dishonesty. While The Washington Post reported that Trump had delivered more than 22,000 false or misleading claims..."

The article calls Trump's dalliance with untruths a "disgraced president's" tweeting claims that likely had something to do with the outcome of the 2020 election. We're thankful for that and there's much more. Read the article: Here are the most dangerous and notable lies Trump spewed during his presidency


Arizona Republican representative Andy Biggs is the scumbag of this state's lowlife GOP. Biggs, along with twin scumbag Paul Gosar actually wrote a letter to Donald Trump in 2019. "reinforcing their support for the president’s desire to spend billions of tax dollars on a border wall." Today, Biggs has been accused of being part of the recent Capitol riots. The rep. denies but...
"Ali Alexander, who led rallies nationwide to try to overturn the results of the presidential election, called Biggs a hero of the movement during the rally at the Arizona Capitol and led a chant in his name."

The time has finally arrived where it is likely that this country will find out whether Bernie Sanders' Progressive agenda is feasible. The Ps know it is and some moderates think there are possibilities. My gut tells me that President-elect Joe Biden, deep down, believes in Bernie as his Chairman Senate Budget Committee, and is convinced his issues can help this country. God knows it needs help after Donald Trump. Yet Republicans see a nightmare...
"that a champion of working-class people and the common good—one who has dedicated his political career to curbing poverty and injustice while denouncing corporate greed, endless war, and the cruelty of a for-profit health system that leaves millions upon millions uninsured or without affordable access to care—would assume the powerful position of chairing the Senate Budget Committee is about to become reality."

Go get 'em Bernie. Read more: GOP nightmare of Senate Budget Chair Bernie Sanders is about to come true

Republican fears just might come true. Donald Trump could well be the defining factor that the GOP is so misguided and corrupt that it no longer deserves the right to exist. At least as it is. It started with Karl Rove in the Geo. W. Bush administration where lying and deceit became staples for the Party. The progression of fabrication of the truth compounded by the GOP's corruption provided T-rump the perfect 'welcome wagon' he needed. But...
"The last four years under President Donald Trump's leadership have been tumultuous for politics but the end of Trump's reign has dealt a hefty blow to the Republican Party."
And now after the Capitol riots, incited by Donald Trump, we are going into a modicum of quietude under our new president, Joe Biden. With Kamala Harris at his side, the hopes for this country are once again optimistic. And if the Republicans implode, well, it couldn't happen to a better gang.

Remember the early days of Donald Trump's 2016 campaign when no one thought he could win, even top politicians short-changed him: Senator Mitch McConnell (R-KY) confidently explained how Trump was "not going to change the platform of the Republican Party, the views of the Republican Party… we're much more likely to change him." Uh huh. Moscow Mitch turned out to be his biggest cheerleader. Read more: Republicans knew they were making a deal with the devil — now they're paying for it

Donald Trump can add to his list of deplorable acts in his lifetime the fact that he is the "only American leader in a century with more than 400,000 deaths from one event on his watch." From the very first denying day, Killer D led the U.S. down the path of decimation from COVID-19. And now after his 2nd impeachment Donald Trump still believes he did the right thing. Pathetic!

Remember that commercial, "Where's the beef?" Today the cry is 'Where's the vaccine?' Donald Trump made promise after promise to get Americans vaccinated now to slow down the surge of coronavirus. That's after bungling the pandemic from the beginning. Here's a quote from the Oregon Gov., "I am demanding answers from the Trump Administration. I am shocked and appalled that they have set an expectation on which they could not deliver, with such grave consequences," This says it all.

Donald Trump has been impeached twice and stands at the threshold of being convicted by the Senate. Trump is in the throes of "political, financial, and legal setbacks that cumulatively spell utter ruin." It is unreal just how many people wait in utter hopeful anticipation for that day.

To begin with the Constitution's case of checks and balances has not worked for Donald Trump. "On January 6, 2021, the head of the executive branch, Donald Trump, incited a mob to attack the legislative branch and then did nothing to stop it." And the likelihood of the Senate convicting Trump after his second impeachment seems limited. And this is only the latest of the Oval Office lunatic's string of corruption over the last four years.

Donald Trump comes in gangbusters with the GOP with top ratings even after the Capitol riots. Analysis: 87% of Republicans are morons, idiots, imbeciles...there are more descriptions but don't have the time to spend on this trivia. A new poll "found that 43 percent of voters nationwide gave Trump a positive job approval rating." Is there any hope for this country? Read more: Trump approval remains stable in new NBC poll...
