My country is going sideways. The Prez is agitating cities.The USSC has further empowered ICE. The tariffs are starting to pressure families who are already $ stretched. Children are recovering from a brutal targeted shooting in a church;while other families grieve the loss of their child. 😢🫣 😞😟

Constituents are getting impatient with their representatives. They're getting tired of their rambling and avoidance of grocery prices.

Americans are not stupid. “Who pays the tariffs?” and he avoids.

Be careful what you wish for. Vance as prez, with his ‘tech bros’ in every corner of the Federal govt would not be better. We need the Trump Admin to run its course, even as ugly as it is. It will reveal to his supporters a great many things, which will help the country in the next prez election.

Gracious, while Blue Sky has been a good alternative to X, it is becoming such a loud & oftentimes polarizing platform that is too reactive. The reasonableness of social media always defaults to the poles. Human beings are apparently ill-suited to sensible perspectives. It seems ppl like to react.

I don’t know if there has been anything as patriotic &fortifying to the soul as South Park,S27. I hope they know how much we appreciate the episodes which reflect what the country is feeling. It also helps to know we are in solidarity,against totalitarian cruelty: ‘Alligator Alcatraz’ is not America

This summary, succinctly packaged in a short presentation-it’s disorienting. To see my country in this state, to clearly recognize how far the U.S. has shifted from a functioning democracy, well, it’s disorienting. And I will not be silent, nor blind, nor powerless. I am a citizen.

@karaswisher.bsky.social Would luv for you & Scott to do a show on: DeltaAirlines uses AI to present ticket prices after tracking a person’s online activity. Yes, everything we do online is tracked. We’ve known this for years. But w/AI, the exploitative aspects are exponential. It’s now too invasive

Are the problems of American society largely a result of Baby Boomers? I’ve heard younger generations say, ‘Yes’. There is resentment at the Boomers who would not adjust when economics realities changed. I’ve heard Boomers called the “Don’t touch it cuz it’s mine generation”.

Watched Social Network this weekend. Never made time to watch it in the past decade & 1/2. Even if 60% of MZ character is off-base, MZ is the lizard he comes off as in ‘real life’.It’s a shame that he is a Billionaire. He is craven,unprincipled,vengeful,& greedy. Worse,he is a terrible human being

DJT is being confronted in Trump2 w/reality,’being president is a really hard job’. It far exceeds the real estate world, The Apprentice,& the full-time family job of grifting. In Trump2, he continues to blame what is on his plate on predecessors.But nope, it’s just the job of POTUS and he owns it.

He is a failure in these ‘peace deals’ and yet he continues to avoid the truth. His avoidance is at the expense of Ukrainian children, mothers, the elderly, and a host of civilians.

“EVERYthing” is about ME. Any exploitation of Trump is quite easy, bc he is unable to evaluate life outside of his ego-centric myopia.(Toddler-stage development,but w/money) TS was on tour, her relationship on display-she’s withdrawn from public view out of exhaustion & need to have a private life)

And, can anyone image the extreme screening this jet must undergo? To examine it for hidden mics, embedded computer chips, etc. Trump sees glitz. But it is a security nightmare when POTUS uses an aircraft ‘gifted’ to POTUS. And when Trump leaves the Office, will he consider the plane ‘his’?

Under all circumstances, Cotton would be rabid with anger over this. Yet, Cotton continues to cover for the president. Cotton is failing to do his job as a senator. His 1st responsibility is to the nation, not the transient person who sits in the Oval or a political party. Failing grade for Cotton

In all of our lifetimes, we (U.S. citizens) have never been the skunk, the stinky partner or adversary. We’ve been ‘the good guy’ and the leader. Thanks to DJT & his cadre of skunks, we are now the ‘odor’ that lingers. Trump leaves an odor, & according to some,not just metaphorically.

He is scary.When leaders are corrupt, society is corrupt.Trump Admin-were it not an example of corrupt, greedy,unethical,human conduct, there would be an example supportive to ‘children who love America’.

How are we as a nation going to get through 3 more years of this? The pretending. The obfuscation. The codependency to not state what is actually going on. Trump exaggerated, lies, and as such is an unreliable president. Yet, his Cabinet covers- it is unsustainable

Trump continues to live in his world where all around him boost him.He is clueless abt Russia’s intentions & goals.He operates outside expert advice.He excludes EU stakeholders who plead that Ru wants to enlarge territory.Trump thinks it’s a real estate deal.He’s getting played, the danger escalates

The cruelty that is ongoing as TrumpAdmin shapes govt, law enforcement, departments, agencies, ‘homeland security’, Congress, & now the Courts; all into twisted misshapen forms that mirror Trump+Project 2025 is sickening. The grotesque rejection of U.S. democracy is stomach turning.

Raskin: So on the logic of this arrest of Judge Dugan, all of the people in the trump administration who participated in defying that order by Judge Boasberg themselves, could be arrested for interfering with a legal proceeding and perhaps other criminal charges like kidnaping..
