“The fake news New York Slime is reporting that your favorite president (ME!) hid in a “food truck” due to threat of from the scumbags in Iran. FAKE NEWS! There was no hiding! I very powerfully “borrowed” a food truck and sent the new “Air Force One” to be toured by the troops.”

So, I completely understand secreting POTUS away from a credible assassination attempt. But leaving the entire Air Force One crew, press pool, etc. to play decoy is some sick shit.

Masked federal agents are killing Americans in the street and terrorizing our communities. Enough. I voted NO on bankrolling ICE's terror. And I introduced a bill that'll create the toughest independent watchdog to rein in ICE and stop the violence.

Sens. Elizabeth Warren and Chris Coons to introduce bill aimed at strengthening oversight of ICE and CBP
Amid negotiations with the White House, the pair of Democrats is pitching the bill as an enforcement mechanism to go alongside the changes they're seeking.

Here is a thought. Go to Netflix for Michelle Obama’s Becoming film & hit play. You don’t even have to watch it. Melania’s film debut is this week & since Trump only cares about ratings, we want Becoming listed as the #1 most watched on Netflix during the same week!

I hate to share a Facebook video but @glaucomflecken.bsky.social isn't posting here lately and this seems useful. I hadn't thought of adding baby shampoo to the water when flushing pepper spray from the eyes. Makes sense but can't find evidence for it. Any other eye/ER docs with advice? #medsky

Donald Trump, if you will not stand down, California will be forced to lead an effort to redraw our maps to offset the rigging of maps in red states. If the other states call off their redistricting efforts, we will do the same. And American democracy will be better for it.
