9 NĂM Ở MỸ, LƯƠNG $17 MỘT GIỜ, THÁNG NÀO CŨNG GỬI VỀ VIỆT NAM CHO MÁ $500
Qua Mỹ 9 năm, làm kho hàng Amazon ở Dallas.
Lương $17 một giờ, làm full time, tháng nào khá thì cầm về chừng $2,600.
Tiền thuê apartment một phòng: $1,250.
Tiền xe góp: $420.
Bảo hiểm xe: $180.
Điện, nước, internet, điện thoại: gần $250.
Tiền ăn, tiền xăng: $400.
Còn lại chừng $100.
Vậy mà 9 năm nay, tháng nào tôi cũng gửi về Việt Nam $500.
Không ai bắt tôi gửi. Tôi tự muốn vậy.
Ba tôi mất sớm. Má một mình nuôi ba anh em tôi ăn học. Hồi nhỏ nhớ nhất là cảnh má ngồi đếm từng tờ tiền lẻ dưới bóng đèn vàng, đếm xong cất vô cái hộp bánh thiếc.
Qua Mỹ rồi, tôi chỉ muốn má khỏi phải đếm tiền lẻ nữa.
Phần thiếu, tôi chạy giao đồ ăn cuối tuần. Có tháng quẹt thẻ tín dụng.
Mỗi lần gọi video, tôi đều đứng chỗ đẹp nhất trong apartment, cười thiệt tươi, nói: “Bên này con ổn lắm má.”
Năm thứ 8, nợ thẻ của tôi lên tới $11,400.
Có hôm tôi gọi về sau ca làm, mặt hốc hác, mắt thâm quầng. Má qua màn hình một hồi lâu rồi hỏi: “Con có chuyện gì giấu má phải không?”
Lần đầu tiên tôi nói thật hết. Lương bao nhiêu, nợ bao nhiêu, cuối tuần chạy xe tới mấy giờ.
Má má nói: “Mai con chờ má gọi lại.”
Sáng hôm sau, má gọi. Má cầm lên một cuốn sổ tiết kiệm ngân hàng.
Má nói: “Tiền con gửi về, má chỉ xài một nửa. Còn một nửa má gửi ngân hàng hết. Má tính để dành cho con lấy vợ.”
8 năm, má để dành được gần $20,000.
Má nói: “Con lấy trả nợ đi. Má không cần nhà to. Má chỉ cần con khỏe mạnh.”
Tôi ngồi trong xe ở parking chỗ làm, cầm điện thoại mà nói không ra tiếng.
Má muốn tôi phải nghỉ chạy xe đêm, đi học thêm.
Nhận được tiền tôi trả hết nợ thẻ. Rồi đăng ký học chứng chỉ quản lý kho ở community college, mỗi tối 2 buổi.
Năm nay tôi được lên làm trưởng ca. Lương $24 một giờ, có bảo hiểm sức khỏe, có 401k.
Tôi vẫn gửi về cho má mỗi tháng.
Nhưng giờ là $300, và má biết hết lương tôi bao nhiêu.
Tháng 3 năm sau, má qua Mỹ thăm tôi lần đầu tiên. Vé máy bay tôi mua rồi.
Ở xứ người, mình cứ tưởng mình đang gánh cả nhà.
Tới một ngày mới nhận ra, ở bên kia nửa vòng trái đất, có một người vẫn đang lặng lẽ gánh nợ cho mình.
CẢM ƠN MÁ, CON YÊU MÁ(nhatkynguoivietomy )

I want to be clear: I don’t have any say in the nicknames my wife gives me.

NEW: In leaked recordings, Peter Thiel argued that Nashville should be a moral alternative to Pope Leo XIV and the Catholic Church, which he called “a dubious ally” against a hypothetical future Antichrist Democratic president.
“America is the last and final form of the Roman Empire,” Thiel told a closed-door crowd in Nashville’s Masonic Temple. “There is no successor.”
He has attacked Pope Leo XIV at least four times this year, once calling him “a useful idiot for the CCP.” thelettersfromleo.com/p/the-…

Let’s cut it out.
Chuck Grassley is 93.
Mitch McConnell is literally half dead, missing in action for months.

Respectfully, I love her. She's done a magnificent job. She's a true pioneer. But, she's 88 years old. She been doing this since 1990. She overwhelmingly won her seat again. Something like 80% to 18%.
This is why I say there should be term limits. North of 70 years old you should be out of the game. At some point mentoring and ushering in new blood should be the mission and priority.
Yet, power is a helluva drug. Some will say it's age discrimination. I just think term limits is how it should be. At some point, yiu need to start grooming your replacement.
I worked for the Detroit Fire Department for 34 years. When I turned 60, I had to retire. I didn't cry about it. I was happy for the next chapter.

“If he wants to pass Trumpcare-for-All, I'm ok with it.. Donald, if you're watching, we'll put your name on it. You get to be the American president who finally guaranteed health care for every single American."

“Woke up to MSNow doing a Prop Piece on Hakeem Jeffries. Looks like everyone is more intent on making the story about him being the first black house speaker than listening to what the people want. I used to be a supporter of his but just feel he’s same old same old. He didn’t endorse Mamdani. He didn’t speak out in support of El Sayed.
Never Forget that BAFFLING MOMENT IN April 2024, Congress had an opportunity to strengthen Americans’ privacy protections by requiring warrants for certain searches of their communications collected through federal surveillance. The amendment failed in a 212 to 212 tie. Jeffries voted AGAINST it. Had he voted yes it would have passed.
Think about that. The Democratic leader had an opportunity to protect a fundamental civil liberty and chose otherwise. 🤷♀️
So before the media starts celebrating the historic possibility of our first Black House Speaker, I’d like to know exactly what kind of leadership we’re celebrating?
Per a friend of mine. “I’d like to know details of why he’d meet privately with f jarod kushner?”

The fact MTG is making sense and speaking thoughtfully still slays me!! Once again, I’m liking a post. And she’s sounds more reasonable than her entire party.
Thanks for the good wishes, Marj!

Dear Democrats,
You won your historic victory on Tuesday with the help of our America First coalition on 4 key basic issues.
1. End foreign wars, war in Iran, and funding for Israel.
2. Reduce cost of living and gas/diesel (economy)
3. End corruption in Gov
4. Reduce cost of healthcare/health insurance
Which were also key components of the mandate delivered to Trump and Republicans, which they betrayed and failed to deliver.
Your party has two factions, older establishment Dems and younger populists Dems.
If the New Democrat majority returns to issues that lost your majority and presidency in 2024 and doesn’t stay focused on those 4 main issues, then the American populists movement that swung it big for you this cycle will not vote for you in 2028.
For example, bringing back 2020-2024 issues like woke, identity politics, forcing trans issues, gun control, Covid vaccine mandates, and open borders are not the issues that drove this massive blue tsunami.
Allowing the older establishment Democrats to run back to those issues that were defeated in the 2024 election would be a very grave mistake, tone deaf, and would completely undermine the opportunity you have before you.
The country didn’t suddenly join the Democrat Party with a sworn allegiance to always vote Democrat.
The country voted to end Trump and to refocus back to the main kitchen table issues that are hurting their lives.
And most of the younger generations of voters could care less about team party politics and just beating the other side.
The future is all about, “deliver results for Americans” and whoever can get it done.
To be very clear, I’m conservative and have voted Republican my entire life, but went into open rebellion and war against Trump and Republicans, the man I worked tirelessly to put in office because he betrayed his promises and the Republican Party turned back to it’s repulsive neocon elite donor focused ways and refused to deliver for the American people.
Our entire coalition did, we ended the Trump era and burned our party down, but we didn’t turn into Democrats.
For both parties need to realize that most Americans want the same basic things and the future belongs to an independent minded left/right powerful coalition that will force our elected and tax payer funded government to deliver for Americans or face punishment at the polls.
Focus on the issues that won on Tuesday, November 3, 2026, not issues the American people defeated in the past.
The ball is in your court.
Good luck!

They always setup black men for times like this. You have a predator in the WH, move on with your allegations!

There is much to celebrate this week, but I want to call specific attention to historic gains Democratic women made in representation:
- For the first time in history, over 100 Democratic women will serve in the U.S. House.
- At least 16 Democratic women will serve in the Senate.
- At least 14 Democratic women will serve as governors, a record high.
- A record of 2,600 Democratic women running for seats in state legislatures helped flip 12 majorities and break 11 supermajorities.
- Four states elected their first woman governor: Georgia, Minnesota, Ohio, and Tennessee.
- @KeishaBottoms will be the first Black woman to serve as a governor.
- @DebHaalandNM will be the first Native American woman to serve as a governor.
- @GinaHinojosaTX will be the first Latina to serve as governor of Texas.
- @peggyflanagan will be the first Native American woman to serve in the Senate.
I am beyond excited to see these extraordinary people and public servants tackle accountability, affordability, and our other challenges to make life better for everyone in this country.
Congratulations to everyone who ran: win or lose, fighting for what's right is always worth it.

This is legit how the American People feel right now. Accountability isn’t revenge. It allows for healing and progress. We can address affordability AND hold them accountable for fleecing the American People.
Folks are struggling and we haven’t seen the worst of it yet because all the horrible things go into effect next year.
Keep your foot on their necks folks!

Q: I’m told that Vivek Ramaswamy left you a congratulatory phone call. Have the two of you spoken at all?
Governor-elect @AmyActonOH: We can’t normalize behavior like this. It was so beyond the pale, so no, I have no intention of speaking to him. Leaders’ words matter and we need to hold folks accountable.
Bank of Ambazonia retweeted
@GayleKing Why aren’t you asking @VivekGRamaswamy if he’s sorry for dragging a homeless woman around to get votes and to try to shame and accuse a SA victim?
You’re giving “hug your creepy uncle” vibes. You’re questioning the behavior of the wrong person.

I love a humble brag. I love a petty brag. Mostly, I love to see us as a community rise. Us a country come together. Us deciding that a door closed was just a window of opportunity.
So go ahead & brag @CharlesMBlow. Get your 💐 . Drink your 🫖. Eat your 🍱
I love to see it. 💙
