For all of us who believe in all the wonderful, uplifting and joyous things that gave the US any claim to being “exceptional”—rights, freedoms, opportunities, and the beauty of diversity—it’s a testing time. Bad Bunny is right that love is stronger than hate, so remembering as we witness…👇

I haven’t posted for a bit, watching myriad horrors unfold as I evaluate the best way to use my voice, insights and talents to make a difference. I’ve found solace in deep, raw conversations IRL helping others deal with the existential stress of it all. From Vancouver this summer, a moment of joy.

No notes.

We’ll never know what could have been, but we do know they chose to believe him and not her, and now they are making up excuses for their votes that put us all in harm’s way. Don’t think this is a one-off.

Earlier today we taped tomorrow’s show, and we discussed the potential for the U.S. to bomb Iran. Since taping, the U.S. has carried out several bombings. We’ll have more to say in the future, but for now our piece on Trump and the Iran Deal can help explain what got us here. youtu.be/5xnZ_CeTqyM

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

Sound engineers pointing out in the comments that the applause is from an indoor audience on an outdoor event💀

She was right.

Share this. It’s why the White House demanding ABC get rid of Terry Moran. Moran has been suspended. What Moran said is accurate and true. Make sure his post makes the rounds.

This seems an excellent day to post a pic of the burning Reichstag in Berlin. Hitler blamed the 1933 fire on communists and used it as a pretext to suspend civil liberties and to allow the Nazis to peruse "ruthless confrontation" with German citizens. Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose.

Loving this chill civilization known as Canada here in Vancouver BC

More relevant than ever on this Press Freedom Day.

Well, as much as I love Santa Monica, Vancouver BC is pretty wonderful.

Congratulations Canada 🇨🇦 on doing the right thing! Proud of my country.

This was the true rationale behind DOGE. A data mining operation with the intent to centralize information in a way that makes the Patriot Act and other surveillance quaint. A must read article.

Easter is a time of rebirth, new beginnings. Its a chance for the America I know and love to refind and realize its true mission as a vital democracy—with equal rights and opportunities for all. what we hold dear is threatened by a perverse regime dedicated to inflicting pain. We will overcome.

They need to fuck right off

Back in January, I reported on DOGE entering an agency system, exporting the data, OPM server info left open to the public, and someone signing in from a foreign country using a DOGE account. Almost identical to what the Whistleblower reported to NPR this week www.muellershewrote.com/p/a-fork-in-...

David Hogg … absolute truth!

🚨Elon Musk’s DOGE team latest: A whistleblower revealed evidence of data exfiltration, disabled security protocols, and possible foreign adversary access at NLRB. @maddow.msnbc.com broke this terrifying story because of the bravery of one man…👇🏼🧵

Right, because Grandma is on X. This is corruption, plain and simple.

This makes Big Brother look like a toddler. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Russia cheers Krasnov. Not surprised.

“Generation X (1965-1980) is the ‘lead generation’ ”… exposed to leaded gasoline the longest and is expected to continue to develop more pronounced internalizing conditions, including anxiety, depression, and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder”…with the highest rates of mental disorders…

There’s no denying it. The decline —and end of an empire. www.thebulwark.com/p/the-americ...

ECONOMY IN SHAMBLES U.S. job cuts hit 275,240 in March 2025, the highest since the pandemic peak in 2020, surpassing 2001 & 2008 recessions. Layoffs surge as federal cuts, led by DOGE, echo Covid-era losses. It's the third highest monthly total on record.

We’re all Dr. Birx now.

Hell yeah!! Wisconsin shows even the richest man in the world can’t buy judges and threaten democracy with $20mm. Democrat Susan Crawford the projected winner in the high stakes state Supreme Court race. Congrats Wisconsin and profound thanks to @benwikler.bsky.social

The words of Ronald Reagan on why tariffs are disastrous for all. flip.it/r-H7EY

Truth resonates. Humility resonates. Creativity resonates. Thanks @corybooker.com !!!

Senator Booker: What kind of man is in the white house that makes fun of the disabled, who lies so much that the fact checkers lose count, that minimizes the pain and the suffering

The old boys club/subconscious bias turns out to be entirely conscious bias and good old fashioned racism/misogyny to boot. Remember: DEI hiring makes it easier for inept white men to get jobs.

This is big. The world is realigning and the US does not look like the winner, all thanks to unforced errors. (I’m being polite)

Vaccines. 💪🏻💪🏻

An elderly holocaust survivor confronts ICE and Tom Homan. His bravery after what he has experienced and endured shows his incredible indomitable spirit even the Nazis couldn’t crush. #MomSky

The chat room whiskeyleaks crew should all lose their jobs.
