I had a large aneurysm in my aorta. Called a widow maker. I was lucky the valve was pulled partially open creating an unusual noise. burst at any minute. Ultrasound found it. Take care of high blood pressure, funny heart noises, and get an ultrasound if you have these. I suspect Lindsey ignored.

It's pretty clear what is going on. Trump asked for a favor to get a digital signature on an incomplete MOU on his birthday. They are not showing the text because it's still being negotiated. Don't be surprised if this is not formally signed ever or the text not disclosed for weeks.

Dems need to realize that winning the senate back is crucial. Trump is his last 2 years will want changes that will last for decades. His best opportunity for that is the appointment of MAGA judges. I expect SCOTUS Thomas to retire so Trump can install a younger version. Woman's rights in trouble.

Watch Meet the Press today and tell me that you don't want to everything possible to stop Trump including all the Senate races regardless of the Dem candidate. Talk about an existential threat to America.

Says it all - "A global trade war, haphazard DOGE cuts to government jobs and funding, aggressive immigrant deportations, and dysfunction in DC threaten to push what was an exceptionally performing economy into recession,” said Mark Zandi, chief economist, Moody’s Analytics.

As much as I like Bluesky and glad off twitter, I worry that this site is increasingly a pity party and for grievance griping. The next 4 years will be a shit show but understanding and building a new Dem platform can impact 2026. Wish the dialogue was mostly on that. Then this really takes off.

Record travel weekend! Biden economy was strong enough for that to happen but weak enough to elect a President that had failed them in 2020 when they needed him most. Consumers will stop spending during term 2 - MAGA's worse nightmare.

I think there is a deal that allows Musk free rein in return for Trump getting richer - my guess Musk committed to by Truth Social for billions and merge it with X. Otherwise Trump can't sell his shares without taking a bath on them.

The runup to the Civil War had both sides passionate about their slavery positions. In the 2024 election, Trump was passionate that illegals were evil and, with only a luke warm opposing view, Trump's view took hold. A passionate opposing view may have balanced that a bit.

He will get rich, cause pain and fear, and not be held accountable, but Democracy will hold and they will be removed if enough people want that. My bet is they will in 2 years and then 4 because the overplay by the President, Co-President, and team will be way over the top.

US cannot let the "new normal" be that Putin can recruit 10s of 1000s NK soldiers to help win his wars. This would give him unlimited fresh troops to pursue multiple fronts including NATO countries. Only showing strength can stop this new normal. Rs are pathetically weak in not seeing this.

Trump has never been a successful operator and was not tested his first term. His cabinet choices are totally inexperienced. Worse decisions are based on "will people like him?". All this points to spectacular term 2 failures.

You are up to date.
