It occurs to me that the best thing the citizens of the world could do for themselves is to start a movement to have Don, Bibi and Vlad arrested, charged and tried before the International Criminal Court for crimes against humanity, genocide and crimes of aggression.

Bill Tilden said good tennis players are good dancers. Susan Lenglen famously played like the game was a form of ballet. The video is a nice illustration of the relationship between the game’s movements and dance.

When we think of travel to Mars we are thinking of transporting or recreating our earth environment on the journey to and on Mars. This is the answer to the Fermi paradox. All life is inextricably connected to its source. We are not on earth but part of it. 1/2

Habitat degradation is the cause of virtually every species extinction. Now, consider what we should do about climate change.

The scientist who identified this gene in the first place calls this profoundly misguided. “Using SRY to establish biological sex is wrong because all it tells you is whether or not the gene is present. It does not tell you…whether testosterone is produced &if so, whether it can be used by the body”

Tennis is the first major women's sports league to require genetic testing
This policy impacts all women; and most other women’s leagues aren’t taking the plunge.

Maybe the reason Trump won’t release the Epstein files is not to protect the perpetrators but to kept the value of the kompromat high.

All of the terms of Trump’s settlement with the IRS must be made public immediately. If Trump has traded an unsustainable lawsuit for an agreement to never audit anyone in his family American taxpayers need to know.

We need to think about what we will do with federal agencies that have become criminal enterprises under The Don Trump. Reorganized, abolished, and laws to support employees who refuse unlawful orders.

I purpose a new definition for “dumbass.” A “dumbass” is a person who takes a position of leadership without having the ability to reasonably predict the consequences of his decisions.

Trump’s Davos speech renounced US world leadership. The world constructed by the US to fight communism is over. We will be poorer and US culture and goods will lose popularity. Good news is we will no longer need our massive military budget, so maybe we will be able to afford healthcare.

Trump did business in the form of projects on which he cheated subs and workers. He is trying to run international business for the world’s largest economy using these same bullying tactics and EVERY CONGRESSPERSON is letting him. This is an extinction event level of stupidity.

Based on Trump’s statements it appears doctors have screened him for dementia several times. He believes these screenings are difficult IQ tests. His actions support suspicion of dementia. His destruction of the East Wing, his poop video, and murders in international waters.

Steve Miller’s on air glitch yesterday when he froze after saying invocation of the Insurrection Act would give Trump “plenary powers” gave away the game. The plan is to send ICE and troops into so-called “blue cities” to provoke violence so he can invoke the Act and declare martial law.

There is some internet chatter Hegseth will try to decapitate the military at his meeting next week. The goal is to make the military answerable to Trump not Congress. This is unacceptable in a democracy.

Trump shows how the stupid rich get richer. A rich person can have a terrible idea and 1-1000+ people, most of whom know it’s a terrible idea, will work hard to make the stupid idea work in some way. Too many of us spend our lives nursemaiding stupid rich people.

The is an anemic debate whether Trump has a plan behind his tariffs. Some say U.S. trade should be rebalanced. No one says the mafia don technique is the way to do it. Without doubt he has already reduced the life savings of many Americans.

I keep hearing Republicans don’t act against Trump/Musk because of fear. If Trump ordered Congress to pass a law all personal wealth over $10 million be distributed to the poor, and a 90% income tax on all income over $200k, what would the Republican Congress do? Seems they like what he is doing.

Tariffs are a tax. They are a regressive tax placing a larger burden on everyone except the rich. They damage the general economy making the tax more burdensome. Trump has raised our taxes and cut our income. Republicans support this.

Trump wants to “run government like a business.” He wants to close small offices and make rural people travel long distances or apply online for services. Should government provide services to everyone or only a few is a discussion we might have. But no one has asked our opinions.
