Aahhhhhhhhhh! Just watching Gaffigan at Al Smith dinner and he says it’s 19 days to the “election and likely a civil war” and then he says “this is my first civil war” and the audience is laughing hysterically.
Also, at one of the town halls Trump said something to the effect of Babbit died – nobody died. What?!
Matt Foley says:
Ashli Babbitt died because Trump lied.

And who talks about being prosecuted more than “Alfonse” Capone? Not Al Capone, but Alfonse.
I’m 73. I can’t remember going to a website & in particular a website with just capitol letters i.e. KFF and no explanation of what KFF stands for. I had to google to find out Kaiser Family Foundation. We who live in big cities all know of Kaiser Hospitals. No biggie. I wouldn’t answer a survey presented to me by KFF and no explanation of what the initials stand for on their website. It’s comes off as being suspect.
The results in my opinion don’t reflect most womens most important issues. I.e. abortion access, freedom to choose. Sorry just my opinion. The insane TFG types in all caps when ANGRY! The put off perhaps?

Loosen up the bone, Wilma.
KFF is the name of the organization.
If you visit KFF’s About Us page — a best practice when visiting any unfamiliar organization — you will learn this from its History:
KFF is the independent source for health policy research, polling, and journalism. Originally founded in 1948 by the American industrialist, Henry J. Kaiser, the organization is now a leading provider of health information through its four major program areas: KFF Policy; KFF Polling; KFF Health News (formerly known as Kaiser Health News, or KHN); and KFF Social Impact Media, which conducts specialized public health information campaigns. The organization was formerly known as the Kaiser Family Foundation.
Sorry Rayne,
When I clicked on the link provided it immediately went to a large Blue page with the polling graph. I can’t remember if there was an article with but if so minimal. The top of the page had KFF and a few tabs to click with no about us. The page looked nothing like the page when I now click on the link or on the link in a search. Maybe there was a glitch. I also can’t remember any site I’ve went to that doesn’t have their info like “about us” at the top of the page. I admit to being a dinosaur. I learn everyday. IMO at the top of the page it would be nice with an organization with this much info to put at the top of the page along with donate, follow us, magnifying glass (search) please scroll for index or addendum for example. Believe me I always click on a new sites “about us.”
Sorry for the confusion. I apologize. I admit to being old & not tech. Although adding a health website like that could be more expansive. There’s room at the top of the page. I’ll scroll to the bottom of pages from now on but there are elder people more confused than I : ) No worries.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Kamala and Meena! Hope you have a wonderful day! I think things are really looking good. And just for good measure:
In the Meantime
Proud of Harris in the meantime
Proud of Harris, such a pol
Proud of Harris
She’s a winner
And she’s civil
Proud of Harris,
She’s a stunner
She won’t shrivel
Proud of Harris, she’s so cogent
She’s so cogent, she’s so clear
Proud of Harris
Why, oh why, so proud of Harris
Fearless, she perseveres
