CALLING ALL AUTHORS! I’m planning my next blog post where I interview an author.

Any are welcome but I’d also love it if you:
✅ partnered with an indie bookstore
✅ are a debut author
✅ are a patriot and are trying to fight this current administration’s bullshit
✅ write cozy fiction

Meanwhile over on the other place, rightwing free speech warriors (this guy is a former DeSantis campaign staffer) are calling for me to be denaturalized and deported because they don’t like my political speech. This is what fascism and racism looks like, folks.

These are e most important #s for the Dems. They should be tracking all local media and influencers in these states and reposting it everywhere

The economic pain tariffs can indlict on red states need to be talked about more than anything else right now. It will flip voters.

As I head into the work-week, I hope to hear from you.

My oath is to the Constitution. I have a responsibility to ACT to defend what is right. I will hold myself accountable. I won’t be able to report it all due to anonymity but will try.

Can you share— what do you see as your responsibility?

Can’t emphasize this enough: if you’re feeling overwhelmed by the debased assault on our country, the antidote is connecting with other people in the flesh who are feeling the same way. There are millions of us.

I am officially intrigued!!!

I’m doing this cool thing where when I see a politician standing up against authoritarianism (especially if they’re standing alone), I go to their website and donate money to them.

Better than Boeing

Thou shalt not claim to be improving efficiency when all you do is fire people and then beg them to come back.

I've been thinking a lot about that bumper sticker which says "everything looks like a conspiracy theory when you don't understand how anything works" and folks it's pretty obvious to me that the people in power right now have absolutely no desire to understand how anything works.

No bone spurs detected.

Today I’m angry. Enough of this criminal bullshit. I want that level of anger from our leaders.

After firing federal workers at the CDC, some 180 of them have received emails begging them to come back to work.

"Read this e-mail immediately" was the subject line according to the AP.

So much government efficiency going on.

What a joke.

Scroll down a bit to get to the interview.

Opinion | David Brooks on Why the Democrats Are Losing to Trump (Gift Article) The columnist shares his thoughts on Donald Trump’s second term.

If democrats are looking for a plan, here it is.

Yes

I was just an Education Department guy under Reagan and the most junior WH senior staffer under G.H.W. Bush, so what do I know? But if I were an ex-president, and the current president were executing the most disastrous turn in American foreign policy in 80 years, I think I might say something?

Math is hard

Everyone has things in their career of which they're ashamed.

Nothing...and I mean nothing...in my career in politics makes me more ashamed and regretful than supporting and promoting Marco Rubio.

He is the most craven betrayer of his stated ideals of any human I've ever met.

Dark Pence is back.

Doing great 👍

Excerpt from a public letter Roald Dahl wrote encouraging people to vaccinate their children. Olivia, my eldest daughter, caught measles when she was seven years old. As the illness took its usual course I can remember reading to her often in bed and not feeling particularly alarmed about it. Then one morning, when she was well on the road to recovery, I was sitting on her bed showing her how to fashion little animals out of coloured pipe-cleaners, and when it came to her turn to make one herself, I noticed that her fingers and her mind were not working together and she couldn’t do anything. “Are you feeling all right?” I asked her. “I feel all sleepy,” she said. In an hour, she was unconscious. In twelve hours she was dead. The measles had turned into a terrible thing called measles encephalitis and there was nothing the doctors could do to save her. That was twenty-four years ago in 1962, but even now, if a child with measles happens to develop the same deadly reaction from measles as Olivia did, there would still be nothing the doctors could do to help her. On the other hand, there is today something that parents can do to make sure that this sort of tragedy does not happen to a child of theirs. They can insist that their child is immunized against measles. I was unable to do that for Olivia in 1962 because in those days a reliable measles vaccine had not been discovered. Today a good and safe vaccine is available to every family and all you have to do is to ask your doctor to administer it.

The measles outbreak in Texas is reminding me of the public letter Roald Dahl wrote about losing his daughter to measles in 1962, just before the vaccine was publicly available.

Our next president will have to be technologically competent, at least , in order for us to sustain our place in the world.

This will become increasingly obvious over the next 4 years as AI gets more powerful

This isn’t necessarily bad. Truly. Done right, we will be a better, more equal society

A heck of a resignation! Those last couple of statements though. “ if no lawyer within earshot of the president is willing to give him that advice, then I expect you will eventually find someone who is enough of a fool, or enough of a coward to file your motion. But it was never going to be me.”

seems like it is a big deal that the unifying ideology of the doge team is neo nazism
