Just an old man trying to stay informed. BTW, I am terrible about following people back. Please don’t take offense.

This fake Christian grifter funnels off over $700,000 from just *one* of his many "charities." And he pays no taxes--because he's a "Christian" who doesn't delve into politics. TAX THE CHURCHES.

To my fellow served-in-the-government/respect-our-institutions types: In light of systematic ICE brutality and DOD dishonesty and DOJ election subversion, we all need to suspend any presumption of regularity or even law-abidingness on the part of elements of the U.S. government.

Stand with Zelensky and against Putin. Stand with Pope Leo XIV and against ICE. Stand with No Kings and against Meta. Stand with the people and against the oligarchs. Stand with liberal democracy and against Trump.

Many of you are asking how you can help me. My only ask is this: Spread the word about the threats to democracy and how we can fight back. Tell everyone to subscribe to Democracy Docket and share its content. demdock.com/4w6emld

The Interior Department is lying. DOJ is lying. DOD is lying. It goes without saying DHS is lying. And whatever setbacks they suffer (which are good!), they will keep on lying. The Trump administration won't change. It can't be fixed. The task is to weaken it, and limit the damage it can do.

"This is actually exhibit number 55,299 of Trump's fundamental mental unfitness and moral unfitness to be president. If he doesn't believe this, and he's just saying this to be manipulative, that's psychopathic. If he actually believes any of this, he's psychotic. He may well be both."

Congressional redistricting approved by the voters of a state should be given *more*—not less—deference than redistricting that was quickly railroaded through a highly partisan legislature without voters' participation or consent.

In 1933, Justice Louis Brandeis said: “We can have democracy in this country or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of the few, but we cannot have both.” What he said was true 93 years ago. It’s even more accurate today. Let us choose democracy over oligarchy.

Until today, I never would have called a President of the United States – of any party – a “fucking piece of shit.” I want to go back to an America where I can’t make the case that the president is a fucking piece of shit. Can't say that about a president.

In cases you were wondering . . . this is a photo that annoyed Pete Hegseth so much because he thought it was "unflattering" so he got the photographer barred. I encourage all of you to use it as often as possible.

Restorative aquaculture can grow food and heal oceans. A new U.S. study finds broad optimism, but big hurdles too such as policy gaps, weak markets and limited research. Moving forward will take investment, smart rules, training, and real partnership. Learn more here https://nature.ly/46zzZzG

We evacuated our kids out of Minneapolis this weekend and my spouse reports that as she drove them out of town she saw "multiple freeway exits where people are being pulled over." It feels like the Twin Cities is being subjugated by a hostile occupying force.

With respect to Vance’s comments today on the killing of Renee Good: “The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command."

I’ve discovered something. People who put up with taxpayer-funded attacks (kidnapping, assault, concentration camps) on our communities believe that banning guns is extreme.

My inner social democrat enjoyed Zohran Mamdani quoting Eugene Debs last night. I vaguely recall my then-even-more-suppressed inner social democrat being pleased in 1990 when Debs was inducted during the first Bush administration into the Labor Department's Hall of Honor. www.dol.gov/general/abou...
