RIP David Clayton Thomas (9/13/41 - 6/24/26) Lead singer for Blood, Sweat and Tears. I saw him perform 2X, last time at a nightclub in San Diego. After the show he came out to the bar and I bought him a drink. We sat and talked for about 45 minutes. Nice gentleman, very unpretentious. 🥺🎵🎸🎤

In the U.S. we must Honor the memory & legacy of Anne Frank by PROTECTING immigrants who are being hunted, caged, and deported by Trump’s Gestapo/ICE.

In my mind, I don't think we've kept enough focus on the murder of Alex Petty and Renee Good. ICE and the DOJ continue to go down the road eroding all of our civil rights, free speech, and legal protections. Without accountability, it's only going to get worse.

Trump's bad poll numbers notwithstanding, we're descending into fascism. And the decision to abstain from voting in the last presidential election, or to vote for a pie-in-the-sky 3rd party candidate, because Harris wasn't *exactly* what you wanted, is looking more catastrophic by the day.

Trump's Voter Suppression Act has only one purpose: to preserve a Republican majority in Congress, and thus prevent his impeachment and conviction, and eventual prosecution, trial, and imprisonment when the extent of his Epstein crimes are finally disclosed.

The worst fear the middle of the roaders have about Mamdani is not that he's a socialist but that his policies will succeed after decades of our politicians as being scared spitless to do anything meaningful out of fear of being labeled a communist.
