I heard this clip in the car today...He said, "Send me to go fight the Redcoats," then "the communists," then "the Islamists" Somehow he skipped right over fighting "the Confederates" and "the fascists" I wonder why

The 'Sheeran Effect' is like the Streissand Effect, except it's trying to avoid controversy so hard that you accidentally create one on a global scale

It's genuinely fascinating that the US president keeps announcing that he just flat out doesn't know what trade is, he legit doesn't appreciate the concept of exchange and instead views economic activity through the lens of a dragon attempting to maximise its gold hoard to sit upon.

Real people are going to suffer because Donald Trump would rather shut the Kennedy Center down than allow it to operate without his name garishly plastered on its side. It's practically the definition of malignant narcissism. www.thebulwark.com/p/a-day-and-...

“Stop Making Sense” turns 42 today. Of his performance, David Byrne said: “You see this person in the beginning [of the film] who's kind of angsty, stumbling around .. And then, by the end, he's surrendered to the music and is fairly joyful .. He’s found a kind of community." 🙏🏼 “Slippery People”

It's bad that the central rule of US diplomacy is now "sometimes the president just says crap, and sometimes he justs post crap, and neither is the official position of the United States, except sometimes seriously but not literally, or sometimes literally, or sometimes it is. You'll find out."

Dr. Amy Acton, Democratic nominee for Gov. of Ohio, was the target of a failed attack by an armed individual this afternoon. I hope Republicans in Ohio and across the country will condemn this and make it clear political violence is always unacceptable. I know Trump will not.

To underscore why this is especially awful for those who may not know, the measles vaccine is usually given at 12 months. Newborns rely on community immunity to prevent exposure, which until recently we have had in the US. This quite literally could be anyone's newborn. None of this had to happen.

Gary, Indiana is 77% percent Black. Thousands have been without power for nearly two weeks. Many are without safe water. Yet every data center is operational & using enormous amounts of both power and water. This is what oligarchy looks like. Everyone suffers so the 1% can make even more.

The United States and Canada have been friends, partners, and allies for more than 150 years across 32 presidential administrations. And now, solely because of the arrogance, incompetence, and ego of the current occupant of the White House, that relationship is being driven straight toward a cliff.

Your regular reminder that if not for the Trump and Bush tax cuts, federal revenues would keep pace with federal spending indefinitely. Instead, these tax cuts have added at least $10 trillion to the debt. The so called "party of fiscal responsibility" is full of it.
