Trump Says Smithsonian Focuses Too Much on ‘How Bad Slavery Was.” Other troubling exhibits: using puppies to clear land mines, and the importance of science to test vaccines. Every time I think they can’t stoop any lower, they set a new record.

Great talk and book signing by another favorite author, Kim Stanley Robinson. For me, he signed “New York 2140” and “The Ministry of the Future.” His careful optimism lets me dream that we are not lost. #KimStanleyRobinson #leftbankbooks

Egg prices were up 6% last month. If I were a Trump voter I’d be feeling really stupid right now. Maybe we should focus on shower pressure instead.

The Good News About Trump’s Tariffs
Authoritarian leaders are most dangerous when they’re popular. Wrecking the economy is unlikely to broaden Trump’s support.

Book signing for the newest by #SarahKendzior “The Last American Road Trip.” Read this or her previous books, she’s been calling what we’re experiencing for years. I’m enjoying my signed copy now, as one does in a nation in decline. #leftbankbooks

I dunno what I did wrong, but Cynthia is having me watch “Wicked” on cable with her. Every time the story starts going somebody sings a goddam song. Excruciating, but I love my wife.

I never dreamed no one would give a shit when a coup was launched against us. The president you voted for is ceding leadership to Putin, and you’re just sitting there smiling.

This current Social Security riff by Trump is completely debunked 100% total made-up BS. No president has EVER lied this baldly from the podium. And Vance, Johnson, and the whole GOP just nod and go along with it.
