His hands bruise from hand shakes, but his ear is fine. 🤔

Trump genuinely believes that tariffs are a free money hack that everyone except him just never noticed.

chemical warfare

Every major Dem politician needs to realize that, in this environment, they can schedule a "speech to the nation," like Newsom did, and get tons of media coverage. Just do it.

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

Gov. Newsom Bravo! And thank you

Congratulations Coco Gauff!!

Why has right-wing media been so incredibly effective? I sat down with the @meidastouch.com brothers to dig deeper into how right-wing news outlets weaponize the American people’s suffering to influence opinions. Listen now or watch on my YouTube. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

Question: Why is the Department of Homeland Security (Ice &FBI) in front of Congress, trying to get more money as they are about to run out? There should be plenty of money from all of those billions they collected with Doge, right?  I’m just asking. Thanks

CARRKEYS in June!!! Love that band!!!

i think your typical democratic voter will respond much better to "they hate this motherfucker in the white house as much as i do" than endless flagellation over biden, especially since the latter looks weak and reinforces all the worst stereotypes about democrats!

I try so hard, but sometimes, it all just makes me feel sad. Hug the people you love!

Stephen Miller lining the White House drive with mug shots of migrants is another sign that he's trying to acclimate, boiled-frog style, us to fascist imagery and tactics. That's why it's so critical that the middle of the country is recoiling at it: newrepublic.com/article/1944...

Let’s Go!!! Jam Camp 2025!!!

They love the racism and misogyny…..nothing else matters

Hey, in 1932, in the mist of the Great Depression, people were literally going hungry. My grandmother used say, “ Rats were on the corner eating onions and crying” Herbert Hoover still got 38% of the vote. Some of you still don’t realize what you dealing with…

How long will it take until it's "woke" to care about the stock market?

We all knew this

Although they have different agendas, all of these groups have one thing in common: The Tech Bros, The Project 2025 people, Christian Nationalists, and America First (MAGA). What is it?

It's not a bad idea to go to the local Walmart or big box retailer and buy lots of consumables now. From toothpaste to soap, anything you can find storage space for, buy before they have to replenish inventory. Even if it's made in the USA , they will jack up the price and blame it on tariffs.

Measles and tariffs, what century is this?

Peter Thiel: look him up if you’re still confused about what’s going on.

Hello Jazz Appreciation Month!!!

the U.S. government is targeting legal noncitizen scholars, not on the basis of any wrongdoing, but as part of a larger assault against an educated public.

We hope to see ya tomorrow night!

I appreciate that Jeffrey Goldberg did not sit on this news for a book that he writes two years from now

ABC News: "An unthinkable breach of national security." CBS News: "An unthinkable breach of national security." MSNBC: "An unthinkable breach of national security." CNN: "An unthinkable breach of national security." Fox News: "We've all texted the wrong person before."

The part that people are missing is that they're doing official communications on Signal to avoid those communications being retained. They can stage a total takeover of the US and there will be no evidence through any official channels.

Trump announced that anyone who attacks a Tesla dealership is a domestic terrorist but this is the same guy who said anyone that attacks the Capital building is a patriot…Got it!

To be clear: a tariff is a tax. - #realjazz2

A lot of important stuff in here www.youtube.com/watch?v=yVwF...

Today @paulcarrjazz.bsky.social speaks on how Black audiences are overlooked in jazz programming; "Real Jazz"; the fallacy of treating jazz like pop music; women in jazz organizations & more. open.substack.com/pub/thefully...

Also, it seems troll/mean driving is on the rise. Some fine gentleman shot me the bird the other day and then tail gated me for a block or so. I haven’t experienced this in south…..I guess open carry solves some things 🤔

Jasmine Crockett 👍🏿…….all Dems should take note…if you care.

Where are the Democrats?
