Kayaking on the Salt River in Mesa, AZ. We didn't get to see any wild horses (too crowded!), but it was magnificent!

Trump lost his war and is now bargaining from a position of weakness. Any deal to open the strait is going to cost tens of billions of dollars - a strait that was open before Trump and Bibi went in guns blazing.

The protest at Delaney Hall in Newark is about the same inhuman conditions fr last year, when Todd Blanche had Newark Mayor Ras Baraka arrested after he left the facility. @emptywheel.bsky.social @nicolesandler.bsky.social www.youtube.com/live/gGGTFnr...

LIVE 3ET/12PT at youtu.be/dE5opOy7a2M, nicolesandler.com, nicolesandler.substack.com

The atrocities committed by the Israeli government under Bibi Netanyahu has become a pretext for depraved minds to justify antisemitic violence against my fellow Jews worldwide. As a Jew, I therefore proudly point out that the current leader of the democratic free world is Vlodmyr Zelenskyy.

It's Memorial Day, when we honor our fallen service members. Today I'll take some liberties and honor my friend, a veteran, Boca Brit Somers who died last week. And Howie Klein too who died 12/24. My site was hacked so, watch at youtu.be/9DZKXHxxJIY, Listen @ nicolesandlerstream.com or substack l8tr

So the idiots who've taken over CBS who killed Late Night yesterday today stick the dagger into the institution that was one of the most respected in the industry I've worked in since college. CBS Radio News. Listen and learn. This is from 1959. Damn the Ellisons nicolesandler.com/wp-content/u...

SWIFT OPPOSITION: There are now House *and* Senate bills to impose 100% tax on payouts from Trump’s $1.8 billion fund for convicted crooks Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) & Ron Wyden (D-OR) have just introduced their version Rep. Mike Thompson (D-CA) already has bill in House

Hey @gallego.senate.gov . Care to explain yourself to a constituent? Come on my show & do it. You think you should run 4 POTUS? Not by casting votes like that. WTAF? Serious question. She wouldn't admit Trump lost in 2020 & you vote a lifetime bench appt? Seriously? WHY?

NEW: Epstein survivor Annie Farmer about Todd Blanche testimony about wanting to hear from Epstein survivors: "Blanche’s suggestion that survivors reach out to the Dept of Justice to re-report the crimes committed against them is beyond insulting. Many of us have already done that, repeatedly"

A Raw Story article by Robert Davis quoted me: ""Okay, this is downright nauseating," political analyst Nicole Sandler, host of "The Nicole Sandler Show," posted on Bluesky." But I didn't write it. I clicked through and it went to bsky.app/profile/gott... Laffy and I are 2 different people! Really

Of course the crooks release this AFTER the hearing. These fuckers are shameless. Life isn't fair. The evil ones win and the good ones die. I'm so over it.

OMG. After I shared so much of that sickening hearing, Allison Gill @muellershewrote weighs in with clarity. Those fucking grifters & scammers belong in prison. Call the senators who used the grifters' language- It's NOT a settlement, it's a scam!

It surely looks tha way. Why does that fucking crook get away with all of this shit?

I'm back today-and it's a wild rollercoaster ride of life. Today Blanche in the hot seat, and Boca Brit says goodbye. Please join me today LIVE 3ET/12PT at youtu.be/wFXbXFythOk, nicolesandler.com, pod later, nicolesandler.substack.com

Spit screen am -Sen approps grilling Todd Blanche www.c-span.org/event/senate... Live Cover to Cover reading of Epstein Files substack.com/live-stream/... I'll cover both on today's show (yes, I'm back today!)

This is nauseating. What about Adam Schiff, Leticia James, Jim Comey, John Brennan, Jerome Powell, John Bolton, Tim Walz, Jacob Frey and all Democrats who investigated D'ump for any of the actual crimes he committed?

When Trump talked about ushering in a "New Golden Age," he was talking about a new golden age for his wallet. America’s Grifter-in-Chief knows no bounds.

@thelisagraves.bsky.social is brilliant and I trust her implicitly when she opines on this and every other question before the court.

Omfg! BJG- damage your what? Credibility? That implies that you ever had any! AOC would be a great POTUS, but the USA does have a history of misogyny, especially in presidential elections. But I'd suggest ppl look elsewhere for advice on this topic -or any other - than to you for answers.

This is what @emptywheel.bsky.social & I discussed today on my show. Appalling & sickening

Fuck Jared Polis. I knew he was a traitor when he was in Congress. Colorado should send his ass packing. Is he now officially a Republican too?

So many of my friends from the music industry moved from LA to Nashville, TN. I'd like to know what they're all doing about their government taking the vote from Black citizens in their state. Canon music makers, make some loud music with good trouble!!
