Husband, Dad, Operations dude, marathoner. Empathy, data, and science should guide our representatives in their voting, not religion. Skeets my own opinion and not that of my employer.

Did Trump just not find the time to declare Juneteenth NOT a federal holiday, or…?

This crisis in Iran is entirely because of Trump's shitty leadership. They stopped installing centrifuges until Trump ripped up the deal Iran made with President Obama—simply out of spite. Now he's barreling toward another poorly planned conflict in the Middle East. Dumb, dumb, dumb.

Last night was the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops. I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III. Remind you of anyone?

Democrat Lawmakers… Start going into the offices of EVERY GOVERNMENT AGENCY… DEMAND TO MEET WITH ANY REPRESENTATIVES FROM DOGE IN THOSE OFFICES. DEMAND THEY IDENTIFY THEMSELVES. PUBLISH THEIR NAMES. IF THEY REFUSE TO IDENTIFY THEMSELVES, POST THEIR PICTURE AND WE’LL IDENTIFY THEM.

In the U.S., one can use traditional Catsup and the invented word Ketchup interchangeably. You can thank marketing (and Heinz, specifically). In the U.S., one can use the name Donald Trump and the title President interchangeably. You can thank an oligarchical system (and Elon Musk, specifically).

Indeed. When they rounded up the Japanese Americans, myself and my family included, for internment during WWII out of fear over Japanese spies and saboteurs, two thirds of us were U.S. citizens. Don’t think it won’t happen again when they come for the “undocumented.”
Post from Latino pollster Mike Madrid:

“Doing some research for an upcoming article on the last “mass deportation” of Mexicans during the 1930’s.

Over half of those deported were US citizens.”

I guess I should not be surprised that the Republican voters who are engaged enough to show interest in the primaries … would look for the Trump surrogate. Vivek is the most Trump-like in the way he machine-guns nonsense into the microphone.
