open.substack.com/pub/adiathev... Gotta tag the song to the feeling. This is my journal❣️

@therealjackhopkins.bsky.social So ALL the experts say ask better questions. I think I have ONE left. And I’m going to leave it with a trusted source someone I believe will tell me the truth whether I want to hear it or not. open.substack.com/pub/adiathev...

Yes, they really are asking about J6, but you can't answer the question because there's no answer that doesn't expose the double standard: a 67-year-old Olympian faces 10 years for allegedly touching pool liner, while over 1,000 people who beat cops and ransacked the Capitol walked free.

😂🤷‍♀️😂

Bryan Adams released a new protest song yesterday, 51st State. youtu.be/LyyFIbaU45w?...

I’m not satisfied with symbolic victories and you shouldn’t be either.

Today I wrote of that quiet child 50 years ago. I so needed this reminder today ❤️❤️‍🩹❤️ No VOICE is too small❣️ You are NEVER too late❣️ You’re allowed to be wrong, just not ALLOWED to HATE❣️ bsky.app/profile/andr...

…we need to remember that the people are not the audience waiting for experts to explain reality back to us. We are part of the record. We are the source behind facts. We are the ones living the consequences while other people debate the framing. open.substack.com/pub/adiathev...

Hey #Oklahoma, and all red states, what do y’all do when your kids get taxpayer money and buy stock? Share it. Ask your neighbors. They are NOT like most❣️

62 years ago today, the Civil Rights Act was signed into law because people refused to back down. That same energy is needed now. As voting rights are under attack, we cannot afford to be complacent. We must keep fighting until every voice is heard and every vote counts. We are not letting up.

JACK SMITH: "My strong view is rather than critiquing people who haven't done what we'd like them to do, let's focus on when we see someone doing the right thing, we hold them up."

State State member, and hard-charging national security lawyer, Kevin Carroll -- representing the CIA officers:

Recent rulings from the SupCt. should concern all of us. But they also carry a message worth hearing: if you don’t like how the President or Congress are exercising their powers, the remedy is political as much as legal. Hold them accountable at the ballot box. Vote them out. #holdfast #steadystate

When a source forces me to think harder, I keep them close not to agree with everything, but to learn how to compare, question, & check myself. Jack is 1 example of that voice for me. Annoying in the best way. The “shut up, I know” voice that makes me think first. If I learn from it, I recycle it.

MacFarlane: If you look at some of the most prominent Democratic challengers trying to flip these seats, they lead with an economic message. They start with groceries, then get to Trump. They start with fertilizer prices, then get to Trump…

WATCH: “Are you really talking about January 6th? I’m not.” At her absurd 🎪 presser about the pool Judge Jeanine Pirro refuses to answer a VERY VALID question about how they can prosecute someone for touching the pool when they pardoned everyone who attacked the Capitol

"Nothing ideological about this," Hegseth says, standing next to armed troops in a city that didn't ask for them. People have every right to call it occupation. The question is why the administration needs a script insisting it isn't.

62 years ago today, the Civil Rights Act was signed. Black Americans fought, bled, and died for rights that should have been theirs from the start. We should honor that legacy by protecting voting rights, not gutting them. The work isn't done. Not even close.

I’m not sure where I go from here. But the journal tags along whether I understand the room or not. That’s the whole point. Write it down. Check the feeling against the receipts. Laugh where you can. Correct what you get wrong. Keep walking❣️ open.substack.com/pub/adiathev...

If Barack Obama had accepted an airplane as a personal gift from a middle eastern country, retrofitted it on our dime & started using it for official presidential business, Republicans would have called for his immediate removal from office & Fox would be screaming about it 24/7.

Bridget “Biddy” Mason was forced to walk 1,700 miles from Mississippi to California as an enslaved woman. She won her freedom in court and became one of the first Black women to own land in Los Angeles. She went on to become an entrepreneur, nurse, and philanthropist who helped build LA. #SheShed

Everyone knows money is corrupting our politics, and Trump’s Supreme Court just made things much worse. LP’s Rick Wilson weighs in on one of the latest SCOTUS decisions on MSNOW:

Okay MAYBE I am ready to tune back into real news for at least an hour a day😂

“Have a baby, go home, collect welfare forever” is a plot from a movie no one made because it’s a stupid thing Stephen Miller invented, and it lives rent free in his head.

The nations he dismissed as too primitive to “invent the wheel” include the birthplaces of algebra, surgery, astronomy, and the concept of zero. Zero, by the way, is something Miller has demonstrated a complete understanding of, in terms of credibility on immigration, history, or basic human decency

JD Vance: I would love it if Democrats were willing to work with us on lowering housing prices. We could have some real bipartisan compromise. (Trump is currently refusing to sign the bipartisan housing affordability bill)
