Wouldn’t it be nice if there were some worldwide representative organization with the clout to regulate the weaponization of AI for evil, or its accidental ability to destroy our world? Hello? Where are you?

Trump may be a gift in disguise…reigniting a shared American passion for democracy, equality, truth, justice, faith, unity and peace. And when he is overwhelmingly defeated, may the world forgive and embrace us in mutually respectful friendship and partnership to save our shared Earth and ourselves.

Appropriately enough, as American school children are no longer able to rely on the acronym "H-O-M-E-S" to remember the names of the Great Lakes, they will have to find a new one to incorporate Lake America. S-H-A-M-E comes to mind.

Do we even have any “intelligence” on the ground in Iran these days? Do spies still exist?

Please, someone in David Crowley’s circle, teach the guy it’s “I saw” or “I have seen” NOT “I seen”. It’s a relatively easy correction that makes a world of difference in how he’s perceived by anyone over, let’s say, 40.

I want public schools to mandate a high school ‘world religions’ class merged with a mandated debate class to get every kid critically thinking through the history, spiritual philosophy, ethics and, yes, politics of religion…and why America was a safe haven founded on religious freedom.

I remember a few years back when living in Spain for a few months and meeting locals who asked if I was ingles (English)…no, I said, Estados Unidos. Ah, Americano! they enthusiastically replied, all smiles. Sadly, that would likely not be today’s reception. Trump has so effing ruined us.

Godspeed, Sam Neill. The first I knew him as an actor was in the great “My Brilliant Career” with Judy Davis. His progressive attitudes toward women certainly were reinforced by that film. 🩷

Here’s my random wish upon a star: dental care for all the toothless people. The guys remodeling my bathrooms (for a pretty penny) haven’t had dental insurance for a lifetime and can barely smile for their embarrassment. America could do so much better if not wasting trillions on the stupid sh*t.

If you watch the Obama Library, the World Cup, and the Knicks parade this afternoon -- and nothing else -- you can actually see the America we're supposed to be at age 250

Peace through strength…ok conceptually…but the recent Trump-Hegseth Iran debacle has showcased our weaknesses, exposed our limits, made the USA as susceptible to the raw grit of a small country as Russia has been to Ukraine. Our bullying exposed as so much bluster. Dangerous.

Quintessential Trump: In 2025, Trump axed the program to combat New World Screwworm, stating that they had "saved" $1.5 million a year. In 2026, the Trump announces a $1 billion emergency program to combat the Screwworm outbreak. $1 billion would have funded the old program for 667 years.

Every American taxpayer should apply to whatever phony commission will handle the $1.776 (cute) slush fund and demand compensation for Trump’s weaponization of tariffs and blockages and ICE etc to hurt us not only financially but emotionally and physically as we Americans struggle to stay afloat.

No more billionaires. None. Once you hit $999 million, every extra cent goes to schools and health care. You get a trophy that says: “I won capitalism.” And we name a dog park after you.

God, I hope there are a slew of legislative staff/interns finalizing the language of future bills to undo the horrors of recent SCOTUS decisions and Trump executive orders. Be ready to GO on day one of the next Democratic administration!

WHCD: “The century-old event has leaned into comedy roasts consistently since the 1980s…made the intentional decision to forgo a comedian host in the name of acknowledging political sensitivities.” No, capitulation to big baby’s thin skin, humorless ego and threats quashed free speech. And the fun.
