I’m listening to Mary Beard talk sbout cancel culture in ancient Rome and looking forward to ‘damnatio memoriae’ in our future. (Instant Classics on YT)

For the Texans out there - vote Talarico if you want to change the 30 years of decline in your state

The response when progressive policies that help millions of people are proposed... "How will you pay for it?" The response when the richest 1% ask for tax cuts, or banks ask for bailouts, or defense contractors ask for more contracts... "How much do you need?" It doesn't have to be this way.

The Cornell 7 remind me that two SCOTUS judges were accused if sexual misconduct during their confirmation hearings. Epstein class is pervasive.

Coal companies are fighting miners’ federal black lung benefits claims, while the black lung rate surges to a 50-year high. Remember: Trump indefinitely stalled a rule that would limit miners’ exposure to dangerous silica dust, which causes black lung. The “pro-worker” president.

If you’re under 40, let me assure you this was the last motherfucker you wanted to see coming up in the 9th inning for the other team.

Mike Rogers was a leading advocate for boosting opioid prescriptions. He took over $1M from Big Pharma. He has always prioritized personal profit over the health and safety of Michiganders. That's not public safety. Watch our new ad, "Safe."

If NFL owners want to censor who performs in stadiums, they shouldn't ask taxpayers to help build them. You can't take public subsidies for stadiums then use them as your personal editorial board. Pay for it all out of your own pocket and hold as many Kid Rock concerts as you want to.

We need a _leader_ as Speaker of the House. Hakim Jeffries has proven that he is not a leader. The final straw is his statement stepping away from universal healthcare.

What ate we doing to get our renewable energy back on line? We need the windmills and other projects that were halted by fiat. How do we get there?

Bank of America and Gillette sponsor concert sites that are refusing to host Macklemore. Let them know what you think. They don’t own the sites but they pay to have their name on them.

Do not normalize children dying from measles. Measles was previously eliminated in the US, thanks to vaccines. When children die from measles, it means that adults have catastrophically failed to protect them because they have rejected basic science.

What a concept is right. IMHO, it's time for the old guards to retire. The polite and courteous old school politics are a thing of the past. Bringing strongly worded letters/statements to a gunfight clearly accomplishes nothing.🙄

Fun fact: Dolly Parton spent decades quietly funding band uniforms and instruments at Black high schools across the South - never once putting her name on it. No headlines, no fanfare — just help, given because it was needed. Wonderful Heart ♥️ RIP Dolly ❤️
