Bad blow drys, ill equipped vegans, lobster roll expectations, new BBQ rib acquaintances, liberal street fear, Israel addressed, late night hotel bar confessionals
Okay first of all, I live in Ca and also 8 miles out of Portland Maine and Portland is NOT Maine. It’s like a weird vortex but I do go there once a week to walk around. I love Maine so much and the politics aren’t as weird as let’s just say California. I wish I was here while you were because I could share my Hunter S. Thompson stories with you and shield you from bad blow outs and blue haired ladies. ❤️ love ya. Keep going. You’re making a difference and keeping the world honest.
Susie thank you for pointing this out! Because YES!! I moved to Maine from Chicago last year(husband born and raised near Standish) and I was DYING over Jess and Denise’s time here. Because portland..IYKYK. 😬🥴 we just got our power and internet back here last night and I’ve been DYING without my JRK/HIH updates!! We need merch Jess!
Trump had some good stuff. I personally own a "Trump Hair Don't Care" baseball hat and my son in law sports some socks that have a cartoon version of Trump on the with the yellow cornsilk hair.
I agree... I personally love my Trumplican t-shirts and signs... (elephant with Trump hair). Granted so many people/businesses coming up with his stuff... probably not "official" but certainly some fun stuff.
Born and raised in Portland ME- and it is NOT the same city as it was even 5 years ago- the majority of people living there now are from away- transient- and have turned it into a hub of pretentious liberal hipsters. Almost everyone that works or hangs or lives there is part of the “queer community” now. Paying thousands to live in apartments I used to drink Colt 45s in as a teenager. Gentrification at its finest. I live outside of Portland now- and find it painful to even enter the city. It was a quick and sad death of a once thriving and tight knit community of hard working middle class people.
RFK is most certainly the most intriguing and honest candidate I have seen and I love your dedication to following him and sharing. This momma is definitely a fan and although I do love me some Trump- RFK has me.
Omg Darcy it has changed so much, we have spent summers here every summer for more than 11yrs and the weird liberal turn a lot of southern Maine has taken is so..weird and uncomfortable hahahaha
Crying/Screaming babies, OUT!!! I agree with someone else’s comment, need proof of the bad blowout. 😆 I think your worse (or is it worst? too tired to check) blowout was probably the roller coaster. You’re are so much fun Jessica. Love you!
It’s just the decent thing to do. I had this discussion once with a friend at a graduation. She said babies will cry and “people just need to get over it”. Told her to be sure to send me an invitation when her daughter is in her first school play and delivers her monologue.
Oh man I was so hoping RFK Jr would be on the right side of history when it comes to Israel’s occupation of Palestine. He chose the easy way out and blamed all of this on H@mas and laid no blame on the Israeli government and the IdF and their 70+ years of oppression. Of course if you murder women and children, the living will rise up and resist. How could he neglect to mention the 10,000 murdered children. 100 journalists murdered. Fucking A man...
So Israel is jealous they can’t kill with impunity?😂FYI Assad killed less than two children a day while Israel is killing 180 per day. It definitively wins the “butcher of the Middle East” title. Congrats.
There has been much dissent about all of the above human rights issues. Maybe you don’t follow the news much?
Palestinians have not broken peace agreements and truces just because “you say so” doesn’t make it true. If you don’t want to read something other than Zionist history books you can check out Wikipedia for a list of who did what. Consistently playing the victim when Israel has been occupying Palestine for 75 years is just silly. It is clear Israel has never wanted the Palestinians to have a state and you only have to listen to the current government to hear it spoken out land.
Egypt doesn’t want Palestinians displace because history has shown Israel will grab the land and not respect the right of return according to international law. Israel has already grabbed so much land someone has to draw the line.
Finally America - the supposed defender and upholder of human rights - is not funding and backing any of the above human rights violations, in fact they spoke out against them. The glaring hypocrisy is what all sane human beings are reacting to.
If you really want to believe that the 153 countries who voted yes to a ceasefire because of the obvious ongoing genocide don’t know what’s going on - there’s nothing more to say to you.
This is not going to look good in the history books.
I don’t know who you think you are replying to, but you posted to me.
I didn’t make the assertion about Assad, but I don’t doubt it.
You post as if October 7th didn’t happen. It did. Sorry, girly, you may have tried that on your mother when you were a toddler, but it ain’t gonna fly here.
Hamas has impoverished the Gazans by stealing outside humanitarian support for the population to buy weapons and build stockpiles of food for their fighters; they built ~300 miles of tunnels under hospitals and schools & sited offensive rockets and launchers under & in close proximity to schools and hospitals as well as command bunkers.
Hamas initiated a provocative terrorist attack on civilians in their homes and a music festival in the early morning hours & runs back to their bunkers & at the same time launching thousands of rockets into Israeli civilian targets (to the extent that they could ) from next to hospitals. Oh & hostages.
All of that you conveniently forgot (well I haven’t)
Israel has 2 or 3 options as I see it: 1) do nothing, suck it up & offer $$$ and release of criminal terrorists to get their hostages back & wait for Hamas to do it again, hoping to get the approval of bleeding hearts nincompoops like you OR
2) do what they are doing and attempt to eradicate the problem, the cancer of Hamas with as little collateral damage as possible, knowing that, as with any radical cancer surgery there will be collateral consequences. Or
3) carpet bomb the whole Gaza Strip attempting to destroy & kill all that moves, followed by door to door & tunnel to tunnel killing of any Hamas that survived.
Hostages pose a problem for options 2&3.
Option 1 guarantees that they get to do it again, though it makes bleeding hearts like you happy temporarily except we will be back here again, won’t we?
The real problem is that Hamas & Palestinians don’t think that Israel should exist (& segments but not all of Israel think the converse) & will do anything to accomplish it. It will never happen; Israel is too rich, populous, and powerful, especially as compared to the Gazans.
Israel contributes to the world economy and knowledge (someone has said it is the second biggest tech sector after Silicon Valley); Hamas & Palestine, well not so much (& I’ll leave it at that).
The Gazans need to accept reality and get rid of Hamas (or the Hamas tiger needs to change its stripes). Not gonna happen as long as their leaders are getting big $$$s from ??? to live it up in Qatar while fomenting discontent back in Gaza.
What have I missed about the situation?
And wishin’ and hopin’ and dreamin’ otherwise ain’t gonna change a thing.
Oh & your recollection of Palestinian purity in this whole situation is like My Little Pony thinking.
Oh, and those 153 ‘countries’ are only the 153 delegates to the UN who get to live high on the hog--unless they are Muslim, then only on the QT-- off their country’s taxpayers while they mentally masturbate in Manhattan & patronize the local upscale prostitutes. Meanwhile their citizens are doing anything they can to emigrate to the USA.
And that, is the way it is, not pretty, but IIWII.
Whoever Christie1970 is, just want to point out that every single word of her diatribe is historically and factually and every other way-completely false. Hey Christie-what is a “Zionist history book”? Sounds like an exact talking point in Hamas/UNRWA run schools. The level of stupid is deeper than the tunnels under Gaza and just as antisemitic
Check out wikipedia, is that the sum total of your supporting references? An online catalogue that anyone can edit? Why not ask my cat, its pretty smart for acat.
No. Im not rude. Im.voiceferous and opiniated. Same as you. I dont appoint myself with the warm glow of innate moral superiority and virtuous infallibility, unlike you. I dont have this innate desire to be right and damn anyone impudent enough to have a different opinion. I mean how dare I. How can I not see the world through the same prism as you, obviously your prism is the sole oracle of fact and belief. I bend my knee to you. I grovel at your feet. I doff my cap at your vast superiority. How wonderful you are. How lucky i am to be corrected by you. How good it must be to be so perfect. I shudder in the wake of your omnipotence.
Me, you and any second grader can update Wikipedia. If you look to Wikipedia for your information you might as well tune into CNN. Children make up 50% of Gaza’s 2.3 million population so yes, child casualties are expected. Palestinians elected Hamas. Egypt doesn’t want terrorists in their country and frankly, I wish the senile cadaver in the White House felt the same way about our country which while you all focus on BLM and Palestine is being taken over and invaded by the Mexican cartels and hoodlums. I hope you have your homes in order because 9/11 was a little birthday party compared to what we have in store. Stop focusing on shit on the outside and protect your own. America First.
Mira I don’t see the connection between Assad & any US policy, nor China & Urghurs, I think you are just a bot and respond with US genocide enabling...
There are alternate reality narratives going on about Gaza.
Who has primary responsibility for the wellbeing of a population? A. Their leaders or B. Their next door neighbors (who have been suffering from hostility and assaults for 70 years from said population)
I assert that it is their leadership. Their leaders are willing to fight the IDF to the last baby, last twenty something male and last pimply faced teen in Gaza while they bask in luxury in Qatar (and believe me, I have been through Qatar and you can live very comfortably there). Did you listen to RFK Jr’s little history lesson?
I am tempted to ask if you are blonde, as your response is classic clueless dumb blonde, but perhaps you go to or recently graduated from Haaavad, in which case your hair could be any color.
I feel sorry for the women and children, but it all falls on Hamas. If the women were smart they would go on a sex strike until the men wised up and threw Hamas out, but I think they are brainwashed or intimidated by their thugs .
There is no “alternate reality” as you conveniently call it, it’s a genocide of my people and I’m not blonde (did u really just say that lol) and I actually live in this region. What is different about this wave of war crimes is that the evidence is proudly being shown by the IDF themselves. What a bunch of bloodthirsty terrorists these young pimply faced IDF soldiers are trained to be. When Palestine is free, these soldiers need therapy if not just find a settlement in the US because I certainly will not live with those who cheer for and enable the genocide of my people. Free Palestine from the river to the sea. 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸
There it is: you people would, if given your druthers (desires) would in actuality genocide the Jews as spelled out in Hamas’ charter.
Gaza had a functioning clean water and sewer system that Hamas ripped up to make rockets out of the pipes which you/they have been terrorizing the population of Israel for decades. And you are pleased to live in relative squalor while the leaders of Hamas live in opulence and safety in Qatar. You hate Jews so much that you put up with being exploited by the fat cats in Qatar. That my dear lady, is a sign of severe mental illness or evil.
I know Palestinians here in the USA and they have a peaceful prosperous life and don’t hate Jews , there is another way of living, free of hate (as one Israeli leader said, there can be peace in the Middle East when Palestinian mothers come to love their children more than they hate the Israelis/Jews.
Soften your heart & love your sons. Your hatred in your mind justifies the massacre of innocent civilians and children (or can you not conceive of an innocent Israeli/Jew in your heart?), this much is evident from what you’ve said here.
I wonder how your US Palestinian pals are feeling now. Maybe you should check on them? Or maybe ignorance is bliss.
I also hold a US passport but it doesn’t mean anything when I visit my homeland, where I get harassed at the checkpoints daily. I am also Christian not that it matters in the slightest. Our cause is unified and one.
For all Palestinians, Zionism is the enemy not Jews. That is a HUGE distinction look how supported we are in the US by educated progressive Jews. I don’t think a ceasefire is possible without the support of the US Jews who are protesting for us and alongside us and getting arrested daily. If fanatic delusional Buddhists, Hindus or Muslims kicked us out of our homes, occupied our land, terrorized and dehumanized us (exactly like how you are doing here on full display) any human will resist. After calling me some Hamas slur you only demonstrate your failure of imagination. Anyone who wants to, can do better than this. I don’t need to “soften my heart” to ANY occupier cheering for the bombing of my people. Criticizing Israel or any Jew doesn’t mean hate or anti semitism. The world sees through this conflation now, and I’m loving it. Israel is an apartheid state.
Just like me, my friends weep for the dead children, both Israeli and Palestinian, it doesn’t seem to me like you weep for Israeli children, nor for raped Israeli women. What are they? Chopped liver? No feminist you, I guess. And not very Christian of you either. Or are you a Christian in name only?
I don’t cheer for any of this, but what has to be done has to be done, and I am not going to second guess Bibi’s decisions, as I am neither Jew nor Israeli; Joe Biden and Barry Sotero, yes. They enabled this by funding & encouraging the Mullahs in Iran.
Why do you absolve the Muslim Arab countries that have refused to allow Palestinians to immigrate to their countries?
When the next door neighbours have killed 8000 Palestinian children I would say the neighbours are the issue. Hamas is responsible for its horrific actions in Israel and Israel is responsible for its horrific genocidal response. That’s called being an adult. Blaming Hamas for what Hamas does, and Hamas for what Israel does is illogical.
No Christie, dear, causation doesn’t work backwards in time; did you miss that part in grade school?
Hamas has sown the wind, and now they are reaping a whirlwind (it could be worse for them as the IDF has given warnings to the people to evacuate, but Hamas has interfered them leaving).
Enjoy standing with the likes of Alan Dershowitz, see video below of a recent interview that will not show on your timelines. Anyone pro-Palestinian must be “khammasss”. Lesser known idiots like Kat Tenbarge and Eve Barlow are also dehumanizing us and are a disgrace to what journalism is supposed to stand for. Apparently we must be anti semitic how predictable. I am a Semite by the way! All for the sake of Israel, a white supremacist settler colonialist project unleashed on the noble Palestinians. Nothing to do with Judaism. My ancestors spoke Hebrew with their Jewish neighbors who are actually from Palestine. Not Poland, not Brooklyn, not Russia. It’s a land grab plan and simple.
White settler....how stupid are these people. Tell that to the N African jews living safely in Israel. Tell that to the Beduoin fighting in the IDF. Tell that to the arabs living in the only democratic sttate in the ME.
Give them a break, Hamas apparently doesn’t have the best education system in the world. They don’t have money for education after all the spending on tunnels and rockets and weapons and sending billions to their leaders living the good life in Qatar.
Yes, she lives in a democratic republic; She holds a US passport by her report, so apparently she wasn’t happy in the paradise Hamas created (though she’ll deny to her dying day that they had anything to do with the mess she fled from)
You dehumanize yourself when murder and rape and mutilate like October 7. Since 1947 Arabs have started every war (except the one that the IDF attacked the gathering Arabs before they could strike--but were ready to go) & this time they not stopping until they wipe out Hamas, like the Allies didn’t stop until they got unconditional, not some truce that you liars are sure to break.
Yes, I am angry. Mira, I can sorta understand, she is Palestinian, though why she suspports her people being exploited by their leaders in Qatar, I don't understand. I am angry that airheads such as you support a murderous terrorist organization that impoverishes its people while stealing from them to make sure that they eat well, and while the ultimate leaders of the organization live the high life of the billionaires that they are (I recall reading that 8 of them in Qatar are billionaires). (Are you a recent graduate of the current higher education, I mean indoctrination, system?
Well the Islamic belief is that jihadi's are due sexual favors and if they die in jihad then they get 72 virgins in paradise (I don't know what the virgins think of that deal).
And the civilian population in Gaza are in essence human shields (and some are used that way in urban street fighting it has been re ported).
How am I dangerous. I sit here in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania amongst the Pennsylvania Dutch, I do not own a firearm, last time I shot a rifle I was in 8th grade taking riflery lessons from the local Y, We gave away my Dad's shot gun, and a couple years ago I borrowed a shot gun to go skeet shooting with some buddies.
How much studying does one need to do to condemn the brutal rape, torture, mutilation, and killing of unarmed civilians, women and children. You would make an excellent Harvard University president if you had sufficient melanin and a sexual orientation disorder. Look no one is without sin in this world & the Zionists terrorized the British before 1947-8, as did our forefathers before our revolution & the North American Indians the colonists and the Trojans the Greeks & vice versa, and the Vikings all of costal western Europe.
And in each case the aggressor party took their chances that they could get away with it without them or their families suffering the expected and likely just consequences of their actions. Similarly the Hittites, but they lost long time ago and we have no records that I am aware of.
What can be said of & for Arab or Muslim culture? It is past its peak Arab culture on the decline since Queen Isabella, Ottomans after WWI.
Israeli culture, well for their size: certainly competing above their weight class.
Would you, as a woman, rather live in Israel or any given Muslim country?
You study to know brutal rape, torture, mutilation, and killing of unarmed civilians, women and children has happened to the Palestinians. I was not trying to get an an argument. Why so combative, boomer? Be open minded. Read both sides and not just what proves your ideologies right. Isn’t that why we follow House in Habit?
And just be a little nicer. Also, I’ve been to Israel and I’ve been all over the Middle East as my family is from there. I wouldn’t choose to live in Israel over the Middle East. You come across as quite righteous, you know?
As I said before, I know that the Israelis were terrorists as they fought the Arabs and the British before the establishment of the State of Israel. I also know that there was no proximate provocation for the October 7th attack. And that Hamas has been shooting rockets into Israel for years on a seemingly random basis. Ditto for the other Palestinian groups.
Since slightly before I was born the Arabs have been opposed to the state of Israel. Over time, Jordan, Egypt and recently the countries of the Abrahamic Accord have come to peace with the existence of the State of Israel. Hamas, Iran, and I think Syria have not. None of those former states have suffered any attacks from Israel nor their civilian populations since they made peace. You would. think that perhaps Hamas could learn a lesson . . . but I guess not; the Hamas leaders sitting in Qatar re happy for the people of the Gaza to keep on fighting a loosing war to the last teenage fighter, woman, and child human shields.
Israel is not going anywhere. It has the most powerful armed forces in the region, it is backstopped by the US military. Iran backs and supplies (and who knows maybe encourages and strategizes with . . .) Hamas, Hezbollah and the PLO on the West Bank, but unless Slow Joe O'biden sells out Israel before he leaves office, they are not going to change the situation.
Hamas structures its military posture to endanger the population of Gaza; Israel on the other hand, structures its military posture to to protect its citizens: Jewish, Arab (Christian and Muslim without differentiation.)
War is hell, for both sides, but especially for the loosing side. That was true for the South in the American Civil War, it was true for the German population and the Japanese population at the end of WWII. (It was true of the Chinese as they were loosing to Japan in the beginning of WWII--the rape of Nanking ring a bell?).
What human rights and freedoms to the Palestinians have from their leaders. None that I can see or have heard about. It seems that if Israel were to magically disappear, the Palestinians would not be free even then (PLO and Hamas would be at each other's throats, likely there would be conflict between Hezbollah and other factions in Lebanon, Syria is in the midst of a civil war that has nothing to do with Israel, as far as I can see. Yemen is in Civil War, Iran is in theocratic oppression. From this western Christian's perspective I don't see a country or society that has an ideology that I could support, with the exception of the Iraqi Kurds with whom I am familiar having spend 4 weeks over 2 years in 2011 & 2012.
Well meaning but muddle headed Zoomer, I don't find your arguments persuasive, lacking a truly broad view of history and culture, that your dumbed down educational background has given you. This Boomer hasn't lost his faculties yet.
I don't have time right now to devote 30 hours to your video series recommendation, but I will put it on my to do list.
Touche, and I apologize. The person that I was directing that comment to reports that she is definitely not blonde, but I still don't think her position is a well thought out one based on evidence or logic. Nor do I concede the argument.
RFK definitely not thinking for himself here. It’s a land grab colonial project. Gaza being the prison and Hamas being the prison gang. It is no match for the IDF aka the most powerful army in the world. What the hell were they expecting? That we would die quietly and politely? Apartheid must end!! Biden, Obama, Trump, RFK, all united in this warmongering stance. Julian Assange is quoted in Jessica’s stories, they really do want endless war and endless excuses for it.
I have followed RFKjr for many years, and his take is always based on facts and research. I admire how he has always been willing to take a public stance on issues even when he knows that his stance is unpopular. The same integrity and evidence based approach that led him to believe that both his father and uncle were victims of conspiratorial violence, that vaccines are not safe, that the government was involved in the creation of Covid, leads to his stance on Israel. Like many of his public positions, this one is jarring for people because it involves discarding popular beliefs, but like every other position I have seen him take, eventually the facts show that he is right. Maybe you need to open your mind. I love this guy.
It's so hard to say who's in the right in this conflict. On one side you've got facts and evidence and nonstop raw video footage documenting massacres of civilians, but on the other side you've got people calling you an anti-semite if you disagree with them. It's very complicated.
It’s not hard: Hamas pulled an apparently unprovoked brutal terror attack on a civilian population. If that was done to virtually any other country (China, India, Russia, Iran, Brazil), their response would be swift and decisive and brutal in many cases, and no one would question the legitimacy of the response.
I agree. I was admittedly in the dark about the history of this area but since 2020 I've made an effort to listen to both sides and do my research before forming an opinion. It was so clear to me after actually listening to Palestinian journalists sharing their first hand experiences and also looking into the history of the land for the last 2000+ years that our media has manipulated us. H@mas was proven to be created in part by Israel. Not to mention all the contracts already in line for mining the rich oil reserves under the Gaza strip. Wars always = money laundering/resource harvesting for the elites/big corporations IMO. I love RFK and won't let one point sway my support... but I was very disappointed to hear his take on it.
“Some corporations don't want free markets, and they don't want democracy. They want profits. And they use our campaign finance system to loot our commons, to steal from our treasury, and the other shared resources of our community - the air, the water, the public lands, the wildlife, the things that belong to all of us that are held in trust for future generations. Corporations cannot act philanthropically in America.
- Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.”
That’s why he’s my choice at this point. I’m a conservative hippie from the 70s who bought in to the idea we could live the earth and it’s people and live in a capitalist democracy and be partakers of the world as well as protectors.
Most sold out for fame and fortune leaving a few of us behind still believing that love is really all we need to grow and thrive. RFK Jr. is giving the 70s vibe we all miss and need as well.
Hey Jessica. Just watched a wild interview with whistleblower Mike Gill. He thinks Trump is taking a deal to leave the race and the 2024 ticket is going to be Flynn/Kennedy. Or vice versa. Has something to do with the Pandora papers which Gill provided to the FBI, and DOJ. Blows the lid on trafficking, money laundering, and American cartels. All based in New Hampshire. But the feds need Pandora’s Box to stay closed. Or the ALL go down. Not as much fun and certainly not as sexy. But wondering if this is THE next big story. (Maybe just file it away.) 🤔
I’ve been saying Trump should pick tulsi for vp cause that would be so smart but as we now know we live in communist China. Anyway rfk can take her too.
Also I had the best lobster roll ever in Portland.
I thought she was gonna run and I was sad when she didn’t but then the best move would to pick her as a vp. She’s literally the best. Tucker Tusli 2024 haha
@houseinhabit Jessica, thank you for another great tale. I especially liked that, at the beginning, you wrote highlights from your notes
Thank you, thank you, thank you, ❤️ for writing about RFK and his take on Israel/Hamas/Palestine. I had been beginning to find him a bit of a bully and couldn’t quite get my head around him not having an agenda. While it is a good thing not to agree with everything that a candidate has to say, this finished my support of Kennedy. Even though Trump also supports Israel (I believe), I’m now one of his followers as I find him more transparent. Thank you for your coverage of him!! He would not have been on my radar if not for you. I never thought that I would support him for President (although hoping that Tucker comes in for VP).
Even though I’m Canadian, it is so important for me to follow the American election. Most Canadians don’t realize how much the policy of the President affects our daily lives! Your coverage has been so important to me for this! I love you even more than before you started election coverage. Thanks, again
Thank you Diane for being so receptive to coverage here and on IG. I am proud to have readers like you. I think the whole point is to offer an alternative view of every candidate (outside of mainstream bias) and Both Trump and Kennedy have been grossly misinterpreted by the masses behind big media, so it's nice to hear that people like you appreciate learning more about all of them from a point of pure curiosity.
Remember we have a year to go! So much more to learn. I hope you keep an open mind as the stories and campaigns continue to evolve.
Love this!! I love the mix of humor, honesty, and thought provoking content - and RFK Jr seems to me to be a pretty solid guy....all I had ever heard or have seen were the bad pieces msm likes to show, as you have so well pointed out. Done with msm!!! It ticks me off that so many are ignorant about it, now that MY eyes are open....an I agree, take the child away from the event so they can calm down. I did it with my son once - his first and last temper tantrum was at a busy Mall, a dozen I brought him out to the car where he fell asleep with 5 minutes. 🤗
Okay first of all, I live in Ca and also 8 miles out of Portland Maine and Portland is NOT Maine. It’s like a weird vortex but I do go there once a week to walk around. I love Maine so much and the politics aren’t as weird as let’s just say California. I wish I was here while you were because I could share my Hunter S. Thompson stories with you and shield you from bad blow outs and blue haired ladies. ❤️ love ya. Keep going. You’re making a difference and keeping the world honest.
Next time I know who to call! The town is adorable. I’d love to come back with you as my tour guide.
Agree with Susie. Maine is my happy place. Portland is weird. However Portland Pie Co. has the best pizza!👏
Susie thank you for pointing this out! Because YES!! I moved to Maine from Chicago last year(husband born and raised near Standish) and I was DYING over Jess and Denise’s time here. Because portland..IYKYK. 😬🥴 we just got our power and internet back here last night and I’ve been DYING without my JRK/HIH updates!! We need merch Jess!
Welcome to Maine Melissa. It’s the best place on earth in my opinion.
❤️
Thanks Susie!!! We are adjusting well to the Vacationland life🦞♥️
JRK- please make merch !!!! xo, me and my entire family 🥹
Merch is ALMOST ready! ❤️
CANNOT WAIT!
Trump had some good stuff. I personally own a "Trump Hair Don't Care" baseball hat and my son in law sports some socks that have a cartoon version of Trump on the with the yellow cornsilk hair.
I agree... I personally love my Trumplican t-shirts and signs... (elephant with Trump hair). Granted so many people/businesses coming up with his stuff... probably not "official" but certainly some fun stuff.
I ordered some cute merch tonight and I feel sooooo happy that I will be looking good and supporting my future president !!
Born and raised in Portland ME- and it is NOT the same city as it was even 5 years ago- the majority of people living there now are from away- transient- and have turned it into a hub of pretentious liberal hipsters. Almost everyone that works or hangs or lives there is part of the “queer community” now. Paying thousands to live in apartments I used to drink Colt 45s in as a teenager. Gentrification at its finest. I live outside of Portland now- and find it painful to even enter the city. It was a quick and sad death of a once thriving and tight knit community of hard working middle class people.
RFK is most certainly the most intriguing and honest candidate I have seen and I love your dedication to following him and sharing. This momma is definitely a fan and although I do love me some Trump- RFK has me.
Oh my gosh! I just left my comment and then read yours. Same same same! 5-10 years ago it was so fun! I avoid it now also. It’s such a shame.
It is awful! I am straight heartbroken over it- Portland was once an amazing little city!
Omg Darcy it has changed so much, we have spent summers here every summer for more than 11yrs and the weird liberal turn a lot of southern Maine has taken is so..weird and uncomfortable hahahaha
FANTASTIC glimpse behind the scenes. I’d love to see if your suggestions affect any future Kennedy merch drops!!! Thank you again, Jessica!!!!
They need to listen to me!! 😆
Crying/Screaming babies, OUT!!! I agree with someone else’s comment, need proof of the bad blowout. 😆 I think your worse (or is it worst? too tired to check) blowout was probably the roller coaster. You’re are so much fun Jessica. Love you!
take them out!
It’s just the decent thing to do. I had this discussion once with a friend at a graduation. She said babies will cry and “people just need to get over it”. Told her to be sure to send me an invitation when her daughter is in her first school play and delivers her monologue.
Love babies, but sometimes not the parents.
Lol, yes take them out. The energy in crowds can be overwhelming for babies and kids (and adults like me!).
Oh man I was so hoping RFK Jr would be on the right side of history when it comes to Israel’s occupation of Palestine. He chose the easy way out and blamed all of this on H@mas and laid no blame on the Israeli government and the IdF and their 70+ years of oppression. Of course if you murder women and children, the living will rise up and resist. How could he neglect to mention the 10,000 murdered children. 100 journalists murdered. Fucking A man...
Asad in syria alone has killed more people,killed more arabs, killed more muslims than israel.in all of its wars.
Not a peep.

Nothing.
Palestinians have broken every single peace agreement and truce.
Nothing.
The Egyptians are building a wall along gaza border to keep egypt free of refugees.

The wezt gave gaza more money per head to re build aftet israel left than europe post ww2.
Nothing.
Hamas has stolen billions in aid.
Nothing.
Hamas has done nothing for people of gazà. That, they say, is the job of the Un.
Nothing.
Hamas is fundamentally opposed to the existence of the ztate of israel.
Nothing.
So Israel is jealous they can’t kill with impunity?😂FYI Assad killed less than two children a day while Israel is killing 180 per day. It definitively wins the “butcher of the Middle East” title. Congrats.
There has been much dissent about all of the above human rights issues. Maybe you don’t follow the news much?
Palestinians have not broken peace agreements and truces just because “you say so” doesn’t make it true. If you don’t want to read something other than Zionist history books you can check out Wikipedia for a list of who did what. Consistently playing the victim when Israel has been occupying Palestine for 75 years is just silly. It is clear Israel has never wanted the Palestinians to have a state and you only have to listen to the current government to hear it spoken out land.
Egypt doesn’t want Palestinians displace because history has shown Israel will grab the land and not respect the right of return according to international law. Israel has already grabbed so much land someone has to draw the line.
Finally America - the supposed defender and upholder of human rights - is not funding and backing any of the above human rights violations, in fact they spoke out against them. The glaring hypocrisy is what all sane human beings are reacting to.
If you really want to believe that the 153 countries who voted yes to a ceasefire because of the obvious ongoing genocide don’t know what’s going on - there’s nothing more to say to you.
This is not going to look good in the history books.
I don’t know who you think you are replying to, but you posted to me.
I didn’t make the assertion about Assad, but I don’t doubt it.
You post as if October 7th didn’t happen. It did. Sorry, girly, you may have tried that on your mother when you were a toddler, but it ain’t gonna fly here.
Hamas has impoverished the Gazans by stealing outside humanitarian support for the population to buy weapons and build stockpiles of food for their fighters; they built ~300 miles of tunnels under hospitals and schools & sited offensive rockets and launchers under & in close proximity to schools and hospitals as well as command bunkers.
Hamas initiated a provocative terrorist attack on civilians in their homes and a music festival in the early morning hours & runs back to their bunkers & at the same time launching thousands of rockets into Israeli civilian targets (to the extent that they could ) from next to hospitals. Oh & hostages.
All of that you conveniently forgot (well I haven’t)
Israel has 2 or 3 options as I see it: 1) do nothing, suck it up & offer $$$ and release of criminal terrorists to get their hostages back & wait for Hamas to do it again, hoping to get the approval of bleeding hearts nincompoops like you OR
2) do what they are doing and attempt to eradicate the problem, the cancer of Hamas with as little collateral damage as possible, knowing that, as with any radical cancer surgery there will be collateral consequences. Or
3) carpet bomb the whole Gaza Strip attempting to destroy & kill all that moves, followed by door to door & tunnel to tunnel killing of any Hamas that survived.
Hostages pose a problem for options 2&3.
Option 1 guarantees that they get to do it again, though it makes bleeding hearts like you happy temporarily except we will be back here again, won’t we?
The real problem is that Hamas & Palestinians don’t think that Israel should exist (& segments but not all of Israel think the converse) & will do anything to accomplish it. It will never happen; Israel is too rich, populous, and powerful, especially as compared to the Gazans.
Israel contributes to the world economy and knowledge (someone has said it is the second biggest tech sector after Silicon Valley); Hamas & Palestine, well not so much (& I’ll leave it at that).
The Gazans need to accept reality and get rid of Hamas (or the Hamas tiger needs to change its stripes). Not gonna happen as long as their leaders are getting big $$$s from ??? to live it up in Qatar while fomenting discontent back in Gaza.
What have I missed about the situation?
And wishin’ and hopin’ and dreamin’ otherwise ain’t gonna change a thing.
Oh & your recollection of Palestinian purity in this whole situation is like My Little Pony thinking.
Oh, and those 153 ‘countries’ are only the 153 delegates to the UN who get to live high on the hog--unless they are Muslim, then only on the QT-- off their country’s taxpayers while they mentally masturbate in Manhattan & patronize the local upscale prostitutes. Meanwhile their citizens are doing anything they can to emigrate to the USA.
And that, is the way it is, not pretty, but IIWII.
Israel also has nuclear weapons. As every Arab and Muslim capital knows.
Which I am sure galls them to no end.
Whoever Christie1970 is, just want to point out that every single word of her diatribe is historically and factually and every other way-completely false. Hey Christie-what is a “Zionist history book”? Sounds like an exact talking point in Hamas/UNRWA run schools. The level of stupid is deeper than the tunnels under Gaza and just as antisemitic
Check out wikipedia, is that the sum total of your supporting references? An online catalogue that anyone can edit? Why not ask my cat, its pretty smart for acat.

Thank you. Arguing with regurgitated Israeli propaganda is 🤮 plus he is rude.
Rude? Me?
No. Im not rude. Im.voiceferous and opiniated. Same as you. I dont appoint myself with the warm glow of innate moral superiority and virtuous infallibility, unlike you. I dont have this innate desire to be right and damn anyone impudent enough to have a different opinion. I mean how dare I. How can I not see the world through the same prism as you, obviously your prism is the sole oracle of fact and belief. I bend my knee to you. I grovel at your feet. I doff my cap at your vast superiority. How wonderful you are. How lucky i am to be corrected by you. How good it must be to be so perfect. I shudder in the wake of your omnipotence.
Me, you and any second grader can update Wikipedia. If you look to Wikipedia for your information you might as well tune into CNN. Children make up 50% of Gaza’s 2.3 million population so yes, child casualties are expected. Palestinians elected Hamas. Egypt doesn’t want terrorists in their country and frankly, I wish the senile cadaver in the White House felt the same way about our country which while you all focus on BLM and Palestine is being taken over and invaded by the Mexican cartels and hoodlums. I hope you have your homes in order because 9/11 was a little birthday party compared to what we have in store. Stop focusing on shit on the outside and protect your own. America First.
Mira I don’t see the connection between Assad & any US policy, nor China & Urghurs, I think you are just a bot and respond with US genocide enabling...
You were done before you started, you just didn’t know it.
There are alternate reality narratives going on about Gaza.
Who has primary responsibility for the wellbeing of a population? A. Their leaders or B. Their next door neighbors (who have been suffering from hostility and assaults for 70 years from said population)
I assert that it is their leadership. Their leaders are willing to fight the IDF to the last baby, last twenty something male and last pimply faced teen in Gaza while they bask in luxury in Qatar (and believe me, I have been through Qatar and you can live very comfortably there). Did you listen to RFK Jr’s little history lesson?
I am tempted to ask if you are blonde, as your response is classic clueless dumb blonde, but perhaps you go to or recently graduated from Haaavad, in which case your hair could be any color.
I feel sorry for the women and children, but it all falls on Hamas. If the women were smart they would go on a sex strike until the men wised up and threw Hamas out, but I think they are brainwashed or intimidated by their thugs .
There is no “alternate reality” as you conveniently call it, it’s a genocide of my people and I’m not blonde (did u really just say that lol) and I actually live in this region. What is different about this wave of war crimes is that the evidence is proudly being shown by the IDF themselves. What a bunch of bloodthirsty terrorists these young pimply faced IDF soldiers are trained to be. When Palestine is free, these soldiers need therapy if not just find a settlement in the US because I certainly will not live with those who cheer for and enable the genocide of my people. Free Palestine from the river to the sea. 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸
Only genoicide is the one Hamas openly calls for in its nazi like articles.
There it is: you people would, if given your druthers (desires) would in actuality genocide the Jews as spelled out in Hamas’ charter.
Gaza had a functioning clean water and sewer system that Hamas ripped up to make rockets out of the pipes which you/they have been terrorizing the population of Israel for decades. And you are pleased to live in relative squalor while the leaders of Hamas live in opulence and safety in Qatar. You hate Jews so much that you put up with being exploited by the fat cats in Qatar. That my dear lady, is a sign of severe mental illness or evil.
I know Palestinians here in the USA and they have a peaceful prosperous life and don’t hate Jews , there is another way of living, free of hate (as one Israeli leader said, there can be peace in the Middle East when Palestinian mothers come to love their children more than they hate the Israelis/Jews.
Soften your heart & love your sons. Your hatred in your mind justifies the massacre of innocent civilians and children (or can you not conceive of an innocent Israeli/Jew in your heart?), this much is evident from what you’ve said here.
I wonder how your US Palestinian pals are feeling now. Maybe you should check on them? Or maybe ignorance is bliss.
I also hold a US passport but it doesn’t mean anything when I visit my homeland, where I get harassed at the checkpoints daily. I am also Christian not that it matters in the slightest. Our cause is unified and one.
For all Palestinians, Zionism is the enemy not Jews. That is a HUGE distinction look how supported we are in the US by educated progressive Jews. I don’t think a ceasefire is possible without the support of the US Jews who are protesting for us and alongside us and getting arrested daily. If fanatic delusional Buddhists, Hindus or Muslims kicked us out of our homes, occupied our land, terrorized and dehumanized us (exactly like how you are doing here on full display) any human will resist. After calling me some Hamas slur you only demonstrate your failure of imagination. Anyone who wants to, can do better than this. I don’t need to “soften my heart” to ANY occupier cheering for the bombing of my people. Criticizing Israel or any Jew doesn’t mean hate or anti semitism. The world sees through this conflation now, and I’m loving it. Israel is an apartheid state.
Mira,
Just like me, my friends weep for the dead children, both Israeli and Palestinian, it doesn’t seem to me like you weep for Israeli children, nor for raped Israeli women. What are they? Chopped liver? No feminist you, I guess. And not very Christian of you either. Or are you a Christian in name only?
I don’t cheer for any of this, but what has to be done has to be done, and I am not going to second guess Bibi’s decisions, as I am neither Jew nor Israeli; Joe Biden and Barry Sotero, yes. They enabled this by funding & encouraging the Mullahs in Iran.
Why do you absolve the Muslim Arab countries that have refused to allow Palestinians to immigrate to their countries?
People who don’t second guess their leaders when their decisions are clearly wrong are what is wrong with this world.
When the next door neighbours have killed 8000 Palestinian children I would say the neighbours are the issue. Hamas is responsible for its horrific actions in Israel and Israel is responsible for its horrific genocidal response. That’s called being an adult. Blaming Hamas for what Hamas does, and Hamas for what Israel does is illogical.
No Christie, dear, causation doesn’t work backwards in time; did you miss that part in grade school?
Hamas has sown the wind, and now they are reaping a whirlwind (it could be worse for them as the IDF has given warnings to the people to evacuate, but Hamas has interfered them leaving).
Are you so naive as to believe Hamas propaganda?
WHOA!!!!! Leave us blonds out of it!!! LOLOLOLOLOL! Some of us are free thinkers. :)
Some of my best friends are blonde
Enjoy standing with the likes of Alan Dershowitz, see video below of a recent interview that will not show on your timelines. Anyone pro-Palestinian must be “khammasss”. Lesser known idiots like Kat Tenbarge and Eve Barlow are also dehumanizing us and are a disgrace to what journalism is supposed to stand for. Apparently we must be anti semitic how predictable. I am a Semite by the way! All for the sake of Israel, a white supremacist settler colonialist project unleashed on the noble Palestinians. Nothing to do with Judaism. My ancestors spoke Hebrew with their Jewish neighbors who are actually from Palestine. Not Poland, not Brooklyn, not Russia. It’s a land grab plan and simple.
https://www.instagram.com/reel/C1AmCjUARxb/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==
White settler....how stupid are these people. Tell that to the N African jews living safely in Israel. Tell that to the Beduoin fighting in the IDF. Tell that to the arabs living in the only democratic sttate in the ME.
Give them a break, Hamas apparently doesn’t have the best education system in the world. They don’t have money for education after all the spending on tunnels and rockets and weapons and sending billions to their leaders living the good life in Qatar.
How is democracy working out? Doesn’t look good at all from here.
Dem is by far the best system ever created. I assume you live in one.
Yes, she lives in a democratic republic; She holds a US passport by her report, so apparently she wasn’t happy in the paradise Hamas created (though she’ll deny to her dying day that they had anything to do with the mess she fled from)
You dehumanize yourself when murder and rape and mutilate like October 7. Since 1947 Arabs have started every war (except the one that the IDF attacked the gathering Arabs before they could strike--but were ready to go) & this time they not stopping until they wipe out Hamas, like the Allies didn’t stop until they got unconditional, not some truce that you liars are sure to break.
Israel’s propaganda is fit for a 3 year old. They are known to lie, the world is watching.
Oh, and Hamas doesn’t lie???
So you are a Semite; Semite tribes have been at each other’s throats since Biblical times.

So, we have heard from a Hamas wench, why don’t you just go to Gaza and get knocked up by the terrorists or turn yourself into a human shield?
You’d do anything for those brave‘freedom fighters’ who figuratively will strap on babies for a bloody photo shoot.
You are disgusting.
Wow you are angry. And wildly misinformed. Dangerously actually.
Yes, I am angry. Mira, I can sorta understand, she is Palestinian, though why she suspports her people being exploited by their leaders in Qatar, I don't understand. I am angry that airheads such as you support a murderous terrorist organization that impoverishes its people while stealing from them to make sure that they eat well, and while the ultimate leaders of the organization live the high life of the billionaires that they are (I recall reading that 8 of them in Qatar are billionaires). (Are you a recent graduate of the current higher education, I mean indoctrination, system?
Well the Islamic belief is that jihadi's are due sexual favors and if they die in jihad then they get 72 virgins in paradise (I don't know what the virgins think of that deal).
And the civilian population in Gaza are in essence human shields (and some are used that way in urban street fighting it has been re ported).
How am I dangerous. I sit here in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania amongst the Pennsylvania Dutch, I do not own a firearm, last time I shot a rifle I was in 8th grade taking riflery lessons from the local Y, We gave away my Dad's shot gun, and a couple years ago I borrowed a shot gun to go skeet shooting with some buddies.
There’s a wonderful podcast series. It’s about 30 hours. Just think of it like audio book. Roger, you have not studied this subject enough. The podcast is not pro one side or the other but you’ll learn a lot. Here’s episode one: https://open.spotify.com/episode/2pLd5KHmOO7axKd9gKz4WD?si=-IR9n1IDTeiQfqTbawpkFQ
It’s call Fear and Loathing in the New Jerusalem by Marty Made podcast
How much studying does one need to do to condemn the brutal rape, torture, mutilation, and killing of unarmed civilians, women and children. You would make an excellent Harvard University president if you had sufficient melanin and a sexual orientation disorder. Look no one is without sin in this world & the Zionists terrorized the British before 1947-8, as did our forefathers before our revolution & the North American Indians the colonists and the Trojans the Greeks & vice versa, and the Vikings all of costal western Europe.
And in each case the aggressor party took their chances that they could get away with it without them or their families suffering the expected and likely just consequences of their actions. Similarly the Hittites, but they lost long time ago and we have no records that I am aware of.
What can be said of & for Arab or Muslim culture? It is past its peak Arab culture on the decline since Queen Isabella, Ottomans after WWI.
Israeli culture, well for their size: certainly competing above their weight class.
Would you, as a woman, rather live in Israel or any given Muslim country?
You study to know brutal rape, torture, mutilation, and killing of unarmed civilians, women and children has happened to the Palestinians. I was not trying to get an an argument. Why so combative, boomer? Be open minded. Read both sides and not just what proves your ideologies right. Isn’t that why we follow House in Habit?
And just be a little nicer. Also, I’ve been to Israel and I’ve been all over the Middle East as my family is from there. I wouldn’t choose to live in Israel over the Middle East. You come across as quite righteous, you know?
Gal without a Tribe,
As I said before, I know that the Israelis were terrorists as they fought the Arabs and the British before the establishment of the State of Israel. I also know that there was no proximate provocation for the October 7th attack. And that Hamas has been shooting rockets into Israel for years on a seemingly random basis. Ditto for the other Palestinian groups.
Since slightly before I was born the Arabs have been opposed to the state of Israel. Over time, Jordan, Egypt and recently the countries of the Abrahamic Accord have come to peace with the existence of the State of Israel. Hamas, Iran, and I think Syria have not. None of those former states have suffered any attacks from Israel nor their civilian populations since they made peace. You would. think that perhaps Hamas could learn a lesson . . . but I guess not; the Hamas leaders sitting in Qatar re happy for the people of the Gaza to keep on fighting a loosing war to the last teenage fighter, woman, and child human shields.
Israel is not going anywhere. It has the most powerful armed forces in the region, it is backstopped by the US military. Iran backs and supplies (and who knows maybe encourages and strategizes with . . .) Hamas, Hezbollah and the PLO on the West Bank, but unless Slow Joe O'biden sells out Israel before he leaves office, they are not going to change the situation.
Hamas structures its military posture to endanger the population of Gaza; Israel on the other hand, structures its military posture to to protect its citizens: Jewish, Arab (Christian and Muslim without differentiation.)
War is hell, for both sides, but especially for the loosing side. That was true for the South in the American Civil War, it was true for the German population and the Japanese population at the end of WWII. (It was true of the Chinese as they were loosing to Japan in the beginning of WWII--the rape of Nanking ring a bell?).
What human rights and freedoms to the Palestinians have from their leaders. None that I can see or have heard about. It seems that if Israel were to magically disappear, the Palestinians would not be free even then (PLO and Hamas would be at each other's throats, likely there would be conflict between Hezbollah and other factions in Lebanon, Syria is in the midst of a civil war that has nothing to do with Israel, as far as I can see. Yemen is in Civil War, Iran is in theocratic oppression. From this western Christian's perspective I don't see a country or society that has an ideology that I could support, with the exception of the Iraqi Kurds with whom I am familiar having spend 4 weeks over 2 years in 2011 & 2012.
Well meaning but muddle headed Zoomer, I don't find your arguments persuasive, lacking a truly broad view of history and culture, that your dumbed down educational background has given you. This Boomer hasn't lost his faculties yet.
I don't have time right now to devote 30 hours to your video series recommendation, but I will put it on my to do list.
Anyone insulting blondes as if they are dumb has lost the argument.
Touche, and I apologize. The person that I was directing that comment to reports that she is definitely not blonde, but I still don't think her position is a well thought out one based on evidence or logic. Nor do I concede the argument.
RFK definitely not thinking for himself here. It’s a land grab colonial project. Gaza being the prison and Hamas being the prison gang. It is no match for the IDF aka the most powerful army in the world. What the hell were they expecting? That we would die quietly and politely? Apartheid must end!! Biden, Obama, Trump, RFK, all united in this warmongering stance. Julian Assange is quoted in Jessica’s stories, they really do want endless war and endless excuses for it.
https://www.instagram.com/reel/CzbCQD-rsuC/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==
I have followed RFKjr for many years, and his take is always based on facts and research. I admire how he has always been willing to take a public stance on issues even when he knows that his stance is unpopular. The same integrity and evidence based approach that led him to believe that both his father and uncle were victims of conspiratorial violence, that vaccines are not safe, that the government was involved in the creation of Covid, leads to his stance on Israel. Like many of his public positions, this one is jarring for people because it involves discarding popular beliefs, but like every other position I have seen him take, eventually the facts show that he is right. Maybe you need to open your mind. I love this guy.
Hamas kool aide drinker alert.
It's so hard to say who's in the right in this conflict. On one side you've got facts and evidence and nonstop raw video footage documenting massacres of civilians, but on the other side you've got people calling you an anti-semite if you disagree with them. It's very complicated.
It’s not hard: Hamas pulled an apparently unprovoked brutal terror attack on a civilian population. If that was done to virtually any other country (China, India, Russia, Iran, Brazil), their response would be swift and decisive and brutal in many cases, and no one would question the legitimacy of the response.
See my other post in response.
I agree. I was admittedly in the dark about the history of this area but since 2020 I've made an effort to listen to both sides and do my research before forming an opinion. It was so clear to me after actually listening to Palestinian journalists sharing their first hand experiences and also looking into the history of the land for the last 2000+ years that our media has manipulated us. H@mas was proven to be created in part by Israel. Not to mention all the contracts already in line for mining the rich oil reserves under the Gaza strip. Wars always = money laundering/resource harvesting for the elites/big corporations IMO. I love RFK and won't let one point sway my support... but I was very disappointed to hear his take on it.
I so enjoy your writing! Brings me great joy.
Yes! I feel the same!
so nice to hear! xx
“Some corporations don't want free markets, and they don't want democracy. They want profits. And they use our campaign finance system to loot our commons, to steal from our treasury, and the other shared resources of our community - the air, the water, the public lands, the wildlife, the things that belong to all of us that are held in trust for future generations. Corporations cannot act philanthropically in America.
- Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.”
That’s why he’s my choice at this point. I’m a conservative hippie from the 70s who bought in to the idea we could live the earth and it’s people and live in a capitalist democracy and be partakers of the world as well as protectors.
Most sold out for fame and fortune leaving a few of us behind still believing that love is really all we need to grow and thrive. RFK Jr. is giving the 70s vibe we all miss and need as well.
Hey Jessica. Just watched a wild interview with whistleblower Mike Gill. He thinks Trump is taking a deal to leave the race and the 2024 ticket is going to be Flynn/Kennedy. Or vice versa. Has something to do with the Pandora papers which Gill provided to the FBI, and DOJ. Blows the lid on trafficking, money laundering, and American cartels. All based in New Hampshire. But the feds need Pandora’s Box to stay closed. Or the ALL go down. Not as much fun and certainly not as sexy. But wondering if this is THE next big story. (Maybe just file it away.) 🤔
I need more info about this!
Great piece Jess! I can’t wait for the next one!
Loved the,”living in the simulation” glitch comment. Also, your wonderfully descriptive prose. Sounds like you had a lot of laughs😁!
I’ve been saying Trump should pick tulsi for vp cause that would be so smart but as we now know we live in communist China. Anyway rfk can take her too.
Also I had the best lobster roll ever in Portland.
I think she’s definitely a contender for both!
I thought she was gonna run and I was sad when she didn’t but then the best move would to pick her as a vp. She’s literally the best. Tucker Tusli 2024 haha
I love her
@houseinhabit Jessica, thank you for another great tale. I especially liked that, at the beginning, you wrote highlights from your notes
Thank you, thank you, thank you, ❤️ for writing about RFK and his take on Israel/Hamas/Palestine. I had been beginning to find him a bit of a bully and couldn’t quite get my head around him not having an agenda. While it is a good thing not to agree with everything that a candidate has to say, this finished my support of Kennedy. Even though Trump also supports Israel (I believe), I’m now one of his followers as I find him more transparent. Thank you for your coverage of him!! He would not have been on my radar if not for you. I never thought that I would support him for President (although hoping that Tucker comes in for VP).
Even though I’m Canadian, it is so important for me to follow the American election. Most Canadians don’t realize how much the policy of the President affects our daily lives! Your coverage has been so important to me for this! I love you even more than before you started election coverage. Thanks, again
Thank you Diane for being so receptive to coverage here and on IG. I am proud to have readers like you. I think the whole point is to offer an alternative view of every candidate (outside of mainstream bias) and Both Trump and Kennedy have been grossly misinterpreted by the masses behind big media, so it's nice to hear that people like you appreciate learning more about all of them from a point of pure curiosity.
Remember we have a year to go! So much more to learn. I hope you keep an open mind as the stories and campaigns continue to evolve.
Xx
J
❤️ Thanks! I wonder how many times my choice of candidate will switch over the next year lol 🙄
Hahaa
Photographic proof of blowouts gone awry, or it didn’t happen.
Fine!

Another home run 🏃 from the SSC 👑s
The apex journalistic team of the moment!!
A next nail in the coffin of mainstream media media!!
A throw back to the true courageous powerfilled content of the Hunter S Thompson & Norman Mailer days!!
They are both @ the eternal bar smiling down you youse 2 boxing 🥊 over who gets who hahahaha !!!
You’re go GIRRRRRRRRLz!!
An aside My ex Cynthia , Michael Packards ( Mr Whale man) Sister, used to walk over to NMs house and box him back in the day!!!
That’s super cool!
Love this!! I love the mix of humor, honesty, and thought provoking content - and RFK Jr seems to me to be a pretty solid guy....all I had ever heard or have seen were the bad pieces msm likes to show, as you have so well pointed out. Done with msm!!! It ticks me off that so many are ignorant about it, now that MY eyes are open....an I agree, take the child away from the event so they can calm down. I did it with my son once - his first and last temper tantrum was at a busy Mall, a dozen I brought him out to the car where he fell asleep with 5 minutes. 🤗
