I just went on a journey. I learned the song Zombie was a great way to build endurance for playing bass. Which led me to Charismatic Voice doing a deep dive on the song. Which led to her doing another one on the Bad Wolves cover.

So you gonna drop your lawsuit against us right, Pam?

The best part is seeing what happens when you give children a joyful way to start their day. They show up energized, confident, and connected. This is what happens when streets feel welcoming and movement is part of the morning routine. #BikeBus

The president has illegally declared war to stop fentanyl trafficking from a country that does not traffic that drug, claiming its leader is trafficking drugs himself, the day after pardoning a former leader of a country who is a convicted drug trafficker. Just to level set

Every once in a while I go back and rewatch this performance, and every time I'm glad I did youtu.be/6SFNW5F8K9Y

Earlier today, I was notified that someone was at my door. This is who it was:

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

I really like Bernie Sanders’ elder statesman era. Unlike too many older politicians who cling to power and perpetuate an outdated political culture, Bernie is actively mentoring the next generation of progressive leaders before he retires. It’s how it should be. And it’s working.

Tonight we remember our dear friend and bandleader Cleto 💙

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

What happened to America First?

SNAP has existed for 60 years. Benefits have gone out every single month over those six decades, including during government shutdowns. Until now. Make no mistake: The money is available to fund SNAP during this shutdown. Trump is making a choice to withhold it. Don’t forget this.

Is there a way to buy a peerage these days? Because I would contribute cash money to get Sean Dunn named the Earl of Sandwich

Johnson basically says it here

An estimated 15.7 million workers use SNAP. It’s a lifeline for those in low-wage jobs. Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker. Don’t be angry at workers for using food stamps. Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.

My dad sent me this

Here's my full interview with Jon Stewart on @thedailyshow.com.

"Destruction of federal property is a federal crime-18 U.S. Code § 1361 defines it as willfully injuring or committing any depredation of U.S. gov't property-Damage exceeding $1k is a felony w/ a fine-up to 10 yrs in prison or both" Meanwhile-took me forever to get permits to repaint my mailbox.

Local legislator displays the importance of kerning

“Can you put two and two together about what’s going on here??” @saikatforcongress.bsky.social connects the dots for the panel

Buttigieg: This is about political revenge. The president has been very clear about that. And the really dangerous thing is the revenge is on you—on ordinary Americans and commuters who depend on these tunnels.

Every dollar for Trump’s ego is a dollar stolen from working families. #TrumpHatesOurHealthCare

This shows in so many ways Halligan is unsuited to be United States Dogcatcher, let alone United States Attorney. She writes a reporter whining about reporting but not offering any actionable specific things the reporter got wrong. There's NO WAY that helps anything. /1

No caption needed

Over in the bad place, the Sock puppets are scrambling. I think they had a ton of content about violence during the protests ready but it didn't happen, so they're going with: But Trump isn't a King They're lying about the size Protestors were paid The news was in on it (the human no kings sign).

See the difference? 👀 #NoKings

I’m not saying they’re Nazis. I’m saying being a Nazi isn’t a deal-breaker for them. I’m saying at a minimum they’re Good Germans.

Dems and Indys of every stripe need to read this article. And I hate the NYT.
