re: Why won't Trump use his sway to build a viable 3rd Party?

[quote]The necons co-opted the Republican Party from the late '60s to 2016. MAGA is co-opting it now.[/quote]

Why won't Trump use his sway to build a viable 3rd Party?
Posted by AUveritas on 5/11/24 at 3:09 pm

re: History Channel: Vatican Secret Archives
Posted by AUveritas on 3/30/24 at 11:11 am
I see something that some "influencer" discovered in the Vatican "secret archives" almost daily. Apparently, they're the worst kept secrets ever and they're letting pretty much anyone with a social media account poke around down there....
re: Spin off - Do you delete friends & family who have passed from your phone contacts?
