Kind of a Schrödinger’s president situation we have tonight. Feels like the eye of the hurricane.

What do you think is a really good song intro? Right of the top of my head, I think of GNR Sweet Child and Marshall Tucker Can’t ya see?

Q: “What can you tell us about the 75 year old Cuban man who died in ICE custody?” HOMAN: “I wasn’t aware of that. People die.” 🤷🏼‍♂️

This weekend I wasted at least 5 hours because I was hyperfocusing on creating a playlist of pop or rock songs featuring the saxophone.

Big point that is being missed: without the insurrection act, the activated Guard troops are now federal army and cannot Do law enforcement. Period

I am going to suggest this: whatever music streaming system you use—Apple, Spotify, YouTube, etc.—stream as much Bruce Springsteen as you can this week. Let’s make a statement by putting him at the top of the charts.

If someone hates you for seemingly no reason, but then you find out they believe a narrative about you that isn’t actually true, do you try to defend yourself by explaining or just let it go.

DOGE keeps cutting agencies and funding and personnel, but no one I know has saved a dime on taxes. It’s almost like they are stripping the public good of resources to send that money to the oligarchs in tax cuts…

If you don’t like sending people to die in concentration camps, it is time to speak up. Don’t like making waves? You’re afraid to annoy people with politics? You’re worried being loud will make you a target? You just want to get along with everyone? Then you are locking the doors to their cells.

Reminder: the First Amendment protects everyone who resides in our country. It doesn't matter if you have a green card or a visa or if you're undocumented. The Supreme Court has repeatedly affirmed that any person residing in the United States, regardless of status, is entitled to 1A protections.

Just had the most frightening dream. I’ll leave out the gory details except the part where I woke up by crying out “we’re all dying!” Hope it’s that I’ve been consuming too much news rather than me becoming some macabre prophet. Anyway, no more sleeping tonight!

Zelensky is trying to save his people. No wonder the talks broke down. Trump can’t understand him since Trump is cool with letting his people suffer and probably die as he reroutes their tax dollars from services that actually help them to the oligarchs’ pockets.

When Bezos was allowing the Washington Post to run itself without his interference, I kind of thought he might be one of the less evil oligarchs, but he has blown that out of the water in the past 6 months. These rich dudes are pathetic.

Operation ICE Ride-Along isn’t going as planned. 🔥 Fox News tagged along with ICE, hoping for an exclusive look at “dangerous criminals.” Instead, they got a whole lot of nothing. No threats, no big arrests—just a community that wasn’t having it. The narrative is falling apart.

Let’s just be very very clear: Trump is using fentanyl as the excuse for tariffs, but fentanyl deaths have been dropping sharply since 2022 due to more people feeling economically secure under Biden’s economy. This broadside on OUR OWM ECONOMY, will only lead to more self medication.

Ronald Reagan won the 1980 election against Jimmy Carter in part because he got Iran to agree not to release the Americans it was holding hostage until Reagan could take credit for their release. He was willing to risk their lives to win. When Republicans say "America first," they mean "me first."
