TBD. Imagine telling someone in Dec 2004 that a black constitutional law professor named Barack Hussein Obama would be the party’s savior. We won’t know till we see it.

Jim Acosta just powerfully announced on air he is leaving CNN with the words: "It is never a good time to bow down to a tyrant." He added, "Don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to the fear. Hold on to the truth and to hope." Amen. Jim will be missed.

My one wish for the inauguration is that there is a gift bag under the seats of Bezos, Zuck, Elon etc, with a single, embroidered , padded knee pad Need to protect themselves when they are on bended knee, kissing the ring 🤷😆

Deep thoughts, by Vanilla DeFunk. Walking around Notting Hill yesterday with the family, doing touristy things. Randomly walk by this house and realized……holy shit, this is not the vibe I need heading into 2025.

You may not understand why, but the healthcare insurance and PBM contracts YOU have signed for Tesla, SpaceX , @X, along with CEOs of other big companies , have more impact on healthcare costs and quality of care in this country, than anything you can do with DOGE

You are up to date.
