I love tennis, Andy Murray, Democracy, classic films and 20th century history, which I know a lot about. Avid reader, lifelong Democrat. Some other stuff too.

Evil Bove continued to sit in on DOJ meetings after his confirmation which is a huge red flag. Judges are supposed to remain impartial, Bove's actions show he isn't. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/29/u...
I desperately want to email this to a certain journalist
Sometime between the fall of 1963 and the late summer of 1964, the actor and photographer Dennis Hopper stopped at an intersection in L.A., took out his Nikon, and made history.
Yellen: “The Fed has been structured by Congress in order to allow it to make independent decisions that are not influenced by politics….President Trump has made clear he wants the Fed to behave differently… His goals are not price stability and full employment.” www.msnbc.com/ali-velshi/w...

MO Gov Mike Kehoe is calling a special session to gerrymander the 5th District which encompasses Kansas City. He is specifically violating Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, which bans any voting practice that denies or weakens the power of a racial minority to elect its preferred candidates.
“Get it all on record now. Get the films. Get the witnesses. Because somewhere down the road of history some bastard will get up and say that this never happened.” Dwight D. Eisenhower
The president’s military occupation of the capital has escalated in recent days into something not seen since British troops marched the streets of colonial Boston.
India, China and Russia are about to forge a global trade alliance that may even supplant the U.S. dollar as the principal trade currency. That would be disastrous for us. The thing is we might (maybe) beat the GOP in 26, but so much damage will be done
He put chalk on his shoes then walked on the Pulse Memorial crosswalk. Police arrested him. But the court said they had no cause and he was released. The man arrested is now considering suing the state of Florida citing first amendment right violations.
Trump: I FEEL GREAT NOTHING IS WRONG HERE LOOK A PHOTO OF ME GOLFING FROM A WEEK AGO Giuliani: I WAS HELPING SOMEONE DONT SPREAD CONSPIRACY THEORIES ABOUT MY CAR WRECK Trump: EPSTEIN IS OVER HE DIED A LONG TIME AGO GET OVER IT Sure, guys.

Nobody likes an ultra processed food like a wellness grifter telling us the dangers of ultra processed foods. I'm sorry but your protein powder, and vital greens, and whatever the fuck bloom is did not come out of the earth looking like that.
Kamala Harris would not be secretly trying to deport innocent children to Guatemala if she was our president instead right now.
Trump isn’t just axing the Constitution. He’s axing something we all love. Watch. https://youtu.be/HS7IJaB5NDc?feature=shared
Robert Mueller was diagnosed with Parkinson’s in 2021. We’re just learning about it now because he was asked to testify in the Epstein matter and won’t be able to. Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2025/08/31/u...
Our TV president is avoiding the TV. Suspicious AF
I can’t find the lie in this.
Remember the Goolsbee Rule, also called the “pathological irony of crisis”: If you lose credibility, your statements begin to mean the opposite of what you say.
Pretending eugenics and fascism are in no way related is like being aggressively ignorant in public
Remove RFK Jr for dereliction of duties. Immediately.
today's Giuliani news feels like when you're watching season 5 of a TV series after they've already added so many new characters & plot lines that you can hardly keep up, & then for some inexplicable reason, the writers bring back some random character from season 1 and you're like WTF?!?
We created the atomic bomb in Oak Ride, TN and Dolly Parton in Sevierville, Tn.
Newsom responds to Trump’s odd post announcing he is going to bed early
Early night for Sleepy Don. Not even any insults either.
I created quite a few of those back in the day.
all the best windows software in history is called something like "joe's thing doer". it does the thing and nothing else and is available on a html website in plain text and takes up under a megabyte of space and uses default windows ui elements and will work until the heat death of the universe
Sorry food workers just know I've been there. I feel for you.
"The lunatics are running the asylum."
New Mexico has issued a public health order that removes federal restrictions to COVID-19 vaccine access so that pharmacies in New Mexico can vaccinate people of all ages and risk profiles. Every state need to do this!
Medicare for all, paid leave, universal childcare. Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed. Getting big money out of politics. Supporting unions and fighting for higher wages. If Dems want to win back working people, this is the agenda they must support.
One thing that's particularly maddening about what's happening today—beyond that it's happening—is that when people talk about how we are moving toward authoritarianism, toward fascism, by a collection of narcissistic sociopaths, many Americans' eyes glaze over.
I'm still waiting for the relentless onslaught of media demands for a press conference and calls to resign.
Garcia: We finally got word from the Epstein estate. They're going to be providing the actual Epstein book… the estate is actually going to actually now get us that book and a bunch of other documents that they have that's actually not been reported yet.
When a president decides to disregard the will of the American people, you’re right, that’s the mark of authoritarian rule. The White House has notified Congress that it plans to cancel $4.9 billion in foreign aid funding that lawmakers had already approved, doing so without their consent.

Everyone at the CDC is getting fired or resigning. RFK Jr. wants to ban all vaccines. His idiocy will get millions of people killed.
In Atlanta, staff at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention gathered to applaud colleagues who resigned following the firing of Director Susan Monarez. With four top officials stepping down, many now feel that the CDC is effectively finished.
Thousands of Mike Johnson's own constituents are at risk of losing Medicaid coverage following the passage of a budget bill he pushed for. And it’s all so he could help bankroll more tax cuts for corporations and the super-rich. Don’t let him forget.
Thousands of DC residents chanting “fuck Jeff Bezos” outside of the P Street Whole Foods
In the USA we have brilliant scientists- medical experts. RFK Jr is not among them
I’ll take things that never happened for $500.
It appears a grand jury can indict a ham sandwich but not a sub sandwich .

Trump just hung a giant portrait of himself over the Department of Labor building, claiming he puts "American Workers First." Take it from a former Secretary of Labor: Donald Trump doesn't give a shit about working people. https://youtu.be/ARL5VvYJUe8?feature=shared
Travis Swift is going to be such a great football player name
it's easier to buy a gun in the united states than high-rise trousers
NEW: Yesterday, I posted that I was unable to get the COVID vaccine at my VA clinic, and many of you assured me that the new one would be available soon and that I was overreacting. I was not overreacting. I am no longer eligible for the vaccine. apnews.com/article/vacc...
I've been working on other things all day, so I only just now was able to read the news about Minnesota. Before I'd gotten the full story, however, I did notice that people on the right seemed to care about this shooting after ignoring the hundreds before it—so I wondered about that. Now I know why.
So many adults have to fail a child before he ends up 10 years old telling CNN about the mass shooting he lived through this morning
What bogus bullshit from both of them!
We are seeing.
EPSTEIN Epstein Epstein Epstein Government buying stake in private companies: socialism Epstein Epstein Epstein President having stakes in those companies: corruption Epstein Epstein Epstein Worrying about Cracker Barrel logo instead of governing Epstein Epstein Epstein EPSTEIN
In a functional government, this would be a five alarm fire where Congress calls in Kennedy and asks him what the fuck is going on
I am sickened by the relentless demonisation of refugees. No refugee underfunded a school. No refugee closed a hospital. No refugee took away support from the sick and disabled. We need solutions not scapegoats. Stop blaming refugees and tax the rich instead!
Never before in our history has one man exercised such unbridled discretion affecting the lives of so many of us, while simultaneously preventing others — Congress, the courts, the American people — from having a say or even knowing what he’s going to do next. This is what dictatorship looks like.
NEW: After reports surfaced that she had been fired, lawyers for CDC Director Susan Monarez say she "has neither resigned nor received notification from the White House that she has been fired, and as a person of integrity and devoted to science, she will not resign."
Psaki: I felt a mixture of anger—a lot of anger—and emotional exhaustion about this today, as I’m sure many of you have, because we have been here so many times. And yet again, like clockwork, half the politicians in our country have little more to offer than thoughts and prayers.
You have to start to wonder if the interior decorator is actually trolling him.
Trump now at 37% approve/55% disapprove. On July 16, was at 40%/54%. Voters are gradually moving away from Trump. But elites continue to accommodate and acquiesce to him. So his authoritarian project marches ahead. poll.qu.edu/poll-release...
At least four major scientists out at the CDC today. Kennedy's assault on our public health just keeps escalating..... insidemedicine.substack.com/p/breaking-n...
Two children were killed and seventeen people were injured in a shooting at Annunciation Catholic School. A Cracker Barrel logo change received far more scrutiny and attention than any fight against the epidemic of gun violence in this country. Our priorities remain idiotic.
It won’t fit in screen shots but linking here the full letter of resignation posted by one of the departing CDC officials, Dr. Demetre Daskalakis, who ran the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases and led efforts to fight COVID, monkeypox, and bird flu x.com/dr_demetre/s...
He's gonna make kids go to work camps because he can atmospherically deduce chakra misalignment.
I don't want to live in a country where 10-year-olds are on the news talking about how their friends saved them by lying on top of them during a shooter incident... and got shot. Thanks, GOPNRA.
Kind of like during Covid when trump was in office in 2020
time.com/7312579/coun... Many shippers aren’t equipped to handle new duty collection requirements on roughly four million packages that enter U.S. duty-free per day. It “creates a massive bottleneck.” The more that shippers suspend deliveries, the more there will be a “domino effect.”
He’s pretty weird looking too. Weird enough that he shouldn’t make it a habit of staring at kids in airports. Just sayin.
wtf is this nonsense? He thinks he can understand kid’s “mitochondrial challenges” just by looking at them? This is an insane person.
It’s the whackiest opening ever for me because it’s supposed to be serious. Joan began as a dancer. I personally think she wanted to prove she was still a dancer after 25 years. Turns out she was more angry! #tcmparty
Sen. Patty Murray (D-Wash.), top Dem on the Senate health committee, on this evening's chaos at CDC: “We cannot let RFK Jr. burn what’s left of the CDC and our other critical health agencies to the ground—he must be fired."
“You don't have to burn books to destroy a culture. Just get people to stop reading them.” ~Ray Bradbury Keep reading, friends. 📚
Denmark Summons U.S. Envoy Over Reports of Influence Campaign in Greenland It’s the latest twist in the Greenland drama. President Trump wants the island, but Denmark refuses to hand it over. THE ONLY REASON HE IS DOING THIS IS BECAUSE PUTIN WANTS THE LOCATION
It is his and their plan.
It's time to remove Robert F. Kennedy Jr from government before he kills us all
Abbe Lowell and I represent CDC Director #SusanMonarez. Contrary to govt statements, Dr. Monarez has neither resigned nor yet been fired. She will not resign. We have issued the following statement:
The safeguards put in place by the forefathers only work if the citizens have a minimum amount of intelligence.

Cracker Barrel should go all out, and release a fully vegan menu.
Tesla rejected $60 million settlement in Autopilot case that ultimately cost it 4 times that amount
Going to be wild to have Clarence Thomas and other members of the court write that even the appearance of impropriety is sufficient to allow the President to remove Federal Reserve members from office, and then head off to Harlan Crow’s yacht
Chairman Mao weighs in on Cracker Barrel
How very terrible for them. Perhaps Russia should focus on its own problems instead of inflicting war and death on others.
we do not publicly shame cybertruck owners enough
California voters are leaning YES on the redistricting ballot. 48% in favor, only 32% opposed. People get it. The narrative is on our side. Remember: CA puts it to the voters. Texas skipped the people. Ours is a one-time fightback that returns to the commission. Texas’ gerrymandering is permanent.
I don’t think the Nobel committee gives out peace prizes to deranged despots who want to call their defense departments the Department of War—and who intend to arrogantly ignore the role of Congress to approve such a name change.
Calling tariff revenue a “windfall” is like calling your speeding ticket a bonus for the police budget. Sure, it’s revenue. But for you, it’s a tax.
