Jon, Last Friday, Palm Beach County FLA disappeared a press briefing from last summer, regarding THEIR release of Epstein-related grand jury materials, which featured Hitler 2.0 as a child rapist. Fortunately, the wayback machine still has it here: web.archive.org/web/20250130...

An unfamiliar, black SUV drove into my complex as I was walking the dog this morning. Backed into a parking space and no one got out. I immediately feared it might be ICE coming to kidnap my neighbors. Then my neighbor came home and parked in her space and I realized it was her boyfriend. #EndICE

I'm happy about Iowa but am too preoccupied trying to #SaveDemocracy to get excited about an election over a year away. A lot has to happen in that year to have any confidence just yet. it has allowed me to hope that maybe no matter what they do to fuck it up they'll lose. They are that bad.

Yeah. discussed my COVID vaccine with the pharmacist yesterday. They're waiting for CDC to release the guidance. krasnov and co are trying to kill us and they will succeed for far too many people. I told them to stop relying on CDC, it's in tatters. There are options however. www.cidrap.umn.edu
