“I can’t believe what you say because I see what you do.” — James Baldwin

“Most artists are concerned about how long they’ll be around. I’m concerned about how long my music will be around.”
- Prince

On this day 2016, Prince passed at 57. It's been a decade since the end of The Purple Reign. Stunning musician, Rock, R&B, Pop & Funk legend, beyond brilliant guitarist.

'I know everything': Brazilian model Amanda Ungaro, Paolo Zampolli, and how the Epstein Network Brought Them Both to Trump's White House Flown to New York on Epstein's jet at 17, partnered for two decades with the man who brought Melania to the US, deported before she could post bail after a single phone call to a federal official, Ama...

In 2002 a 17 year old from Londrina, Brazil boarded Jeffrey Epstein’s private jet in Paris and was trafficked to New York. Around 30 girls were on that flight. Ghislaine Maxwell prowled the cabin. Some girls sat on Epstein’s lap. The teenager was Amanda Ungaro.

BREAKING: Federal Bill Would Put Big Oil Above the Law | Center for Climate Integrity Republicans Introduce Legislation to Give Fossil Fuel Companies Immunity from Any Laws or Lawsuits Seeking to Hold them Accountable for their Role in the Climate Crisis

Republicans know they are about to lose the House and are trying to give Big Oil its holy grail: legal immunity from any futures actions that would hold the industry responsible for the climate crisis it knowingly caused and is making worse every day.

Looking forward to voting for an 'ankle biter.’ Fetterman is so far out of touch with his constituents.

I just wanna say how proud I am of everyone who's fighting for democracy: no matter which country you live in.

It's never a quick win, and the mainstream media may downplay you, but your efforts add up.

Whether you're working center-stage or behind-the-scenes, you all matter.

Interesting bit from a speech Cory Booker gave yesterday at the Michigan Democratic Women's Caucus in Detroit: (Full speech here: www.c-span.org/program/camp...)

Mike Waltz has a freudian slip and calls Operation Epic Fury "Operation Economic Fury"

Daily Beast: The US Navy crashed a $240M spy drone during fighting in Iran. The crash marks the latest entry on the ever-growing tab for Trump’s war, which is thought to already stand in the tens of billions, before any impact on the economy is considered.

I'd rather eat it first with a nice Chianti than give it to orange lard ass

The FBI guy is on a paranoid bender and won’t leave his room.

The War guy quotes bible passages from Pulp Fiction.

The Health guy collects raccoon dicks.

It’s an Idiocracy on steroids.

Felt compelled to write on this topic again today. IMO we simply do not have the data to know what impacts the changes to the NWS upper air program - necessitated by budget/staffing constraints- may be having on forecasts.

He is going to pull a Fetterman. We can’t afford to lose a Senate seat this next election.

You know I knew that Door Dash woman looked familiar

To the doomers who keep saying Trump will rig the 2026 and 2028 elections: Do not concede in advance

JD Vance is on a historic roll:

He campaigns for AfD in Germany - they lose.

Invited the Pope to come to US for Trump’s big event - Pope refuses.

Leads peace negotiations with Iran - fails miserably.

Campaigns in Hungary for Orbán - who gets smoked.

Trump and Vance went to Hungary to back Orbán and ended up campaigning for his opponent like unpaid interns. 😂😂😂

Breaking: Usha says she will skydive.

JUST IN: Viktor Orban conceded his defeat in Hungary.

The far-right leader & Trump ally will no longer be prime minister.

What remains to be seen is the size of his defeat — and whether the opposition wins a supermajority to amend the constitution and reverse Orban’s rule.

Oh, so we're going to turn the entire world against us because Trump's mommy didn't hug him.

I hope Integrity returning to Earth is an unsubtle harbinger of things to come.

White boys can dance 👏🏼

The only thing missing is a little more 🍊.

Damn. Iran just dropped an A+ level troll on Trump in this new LEGO movie.

I’m no fan of Iran at all… but this one actually nails him. 😂😂

🚨NEW🚨

Ranking Members @meeks.house.gov and @keating.house.gov introduced the “End Russian Oil Windfalls Act” to curtail Russia’s ability to exploit the global rise in energy costs to fund its war against Ukraine.

I suggest Congress stop being scared of Trump and start being scared of the American people..:

Because we are DONE.
