(13,485 posts)Are there pictures or links in your op? Many of your posts are blank on my device. The same is true of other people's posts on occasion. If there is a pic, what type is it? Maybe I can fix it here. Sorry to sidetrack.

(5,101 posts)I post pics rather than links.
If you can't see a pic, tell me, I'll fix it.

(13,485 posts)It happens with less than 10% of posted media (pics?) on the site. I get video, many pics and links, but just certain types like this one. It just has the text then it's blank below. Maybe it's all direct pics, I can't know without input. If it is all direct pics maybe I need to tweak on this end. A fishing expedition.
syringis
(5,101 posts)I often choose the direct link. I download on my pc and save otherwise, when people tell me they can't see a pic.
I think I will do it automatically.

(14,176 posts)Republicans control Congress, the Senate, the Presidency, and the Supreme Court.
Republican appointed Republicans are in charge of Justice and Intelligence departments. Mueller is a Republican.
So despite all that power and control, they cannot find them? They cannot stop them? Are these operatives invisible? Do they have mutant powers? How do they actually operate? How do they get access to infiltrating institutions and planting fake evidence, or make people lie for them, when they have no real authority any more? Especially in this partisan environment where every gate is guarded, where every person with any position is scrutinized even more along party lines.
Alex Jones, Hannity, etc... love to go off describing all the harm this 'deep state' is doing to an innocent President. But they always fail to discuss just HOW they exist.

(5,801 posts)the Democratic "deep state" did all that to make Hillary lose and install a moron in the White House.

BTW, regarding the old claim that "The Jews are running the world", my response has always been that the world would be far more organized and much cleaner if that were true.
I made that little joking comment to a young co-worker years ago. She smiled in appreciation of the insight and then chirped, "And there would be more money!"

(14,494 posts)We're doing OK, with our share of struggles with aging. Much harder to deal with summer heat and winter cold than in my youth.
I love following some of my favorite cartoonists because they are one of the best anti-depressants around - and generally don't have any co-pay, LOL. The Guardian UK has some of my favorites. I like The New Yorker's 'toons as well.
Hope things are going well with you and you're getting a little holiday time in, too!......
