Donald Trump was ranked dead last in a 2024 survey of presidential scholars. His second term is unlikely to change that. #NoKingsDay

On my walk this morning, this fellow kept an eye on Frankie (dog) and me. I think he realized we were just admiring his majesty and strength.

Rep. Thomas Massie has announced he'll introduce the Epstein Files Transparency Act II, a bill to give state AGs, DAs, 'authorized state officers,' and victims the right to sue DOJ for "unlawfully withholding, redacting, delaying, concealing, removing, or failing to publish Epstein-related records."

A $3 @mta.info subway fare and some good Q train timing can buy you one hell of a view of the July 4th fireworks and the Brooklyn Bridge light show! Huge shoutout to the train operator for slow rolling over the Manhattan Bridge and the conductor for announcing it.

Prior to Trump initiating his illegal war to distract from being a rapist and pedophile, I had been schedule to give a virtual lecture on a sports economics topic to the Sharif Economics Academic Association in Teheran.

Today, I received an email from the person who had arranged the seminar in which he apologized to me for abruptly cancelling the talk and for any inconvenience that caused me. He hoped I would be willing to give a talk sometime in the future. Trump, his cronies and supporters disgust me.
