Dropkick Murphys just had an epic moment at their show: They made a friendly wager with a fan in a MAGA shirt—“Let’s see where it’s made.” Then they checked his MAGA shirt tag… Made in Nicaragua. They swapped it with a Made in America Dropkick Murphys tee. Legendary.

And there it is. Putin’s lifelong dream. After years of relentless Russian propaganda, now fully embraced by the American president and the world’s richest oligarch, millions of Americans are convinced that this is a good plan because Europe is an enemy and Putin is our friend.

New rule. If I go into a restaurant or bar and Fox News is on the tv when I'm waited on I am going to tell them I can't stomach Fox because it reminds me of NTV the Russian state propaganda channel, I'm not a fascist and find it offensive. I'll hand the waiter or waitress a dollar.

This is WILD. In case you can't make it out, Musk's kid is saying "You're not the president and you need to go away." I WONDER WHERE HE COULD HAVE GOTTEN THAT IDEA FROM.

To Canadians: I'm from the USA and I'm really sorry about what is going on. I'm very embarrassed. It appears we have been taken over by a mad man. I hope it's only temporary, but if not, does anyone have a spare room they would like to rent out?

It is very unsettling that there is no pushback by Republicans at Trumps madness. I have been an independent all my life but it's clear now that joining the democrats is the thing to do. The Republican Party has clearly lost it.
