Cold and rain returning to the Pacific Northwest so I made jasmine rice and Thai chicken curry stew. Deboned Costco rotisserie chicken is a great start, sauteed garlic, onion, green onion, jalapeno, carrots, shallots, mushrooms, baby yukon gold potatoes, plus coconut milk, stock & Thai spices. 10/10

If the late Senator Lindsay Graham wanted to troll 47 he could not have found a better way than making The President listen to the entire "West Wing" theme. Music was written by the great composer G. Snuffy Walden.

Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez' office called to see if they can count on my support again for the midterms - my answer "not a chance in hell." Perez, Manchin, Sinema, Fetterman, all of them! Democrats in name only clout chasers. I believe @bhennrich.bsky.social will represent our district well.

First Russia gave Ukraine security guarantees for Ukraine to give up nukes they had in the first place...and then 25 years later, Russia violates that agreement & invades Ukraine, which gave up its nuclear weapons unlike Russia, & blames Ukraine for wanting nukes.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year. Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity. Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall. It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.

ICE tear gassed a bunch of children on Saturday. This was a massive escalation of force. They were shooting tear gas at the back of the crowd, it took these unmasked people maybe 3-5 minutes in the cloud of tear gas to escape in without trampling. www.theverge.com/policy/87278...
