Iβm not going to watch the State of the Union address Tuesday night. I urge you not to, either. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/the-fate-of-the-dis-union
I am otherwise engaged that night
"the camp was raided to confiscate letters from the children"
Well now, would you look at that?
A massive study of NEARLY 300,000 people in the United States found that receiving an updated 2024-2025 mRNA COVID-19 vaccine REDUCED peopleβs risk of SEVERE disease AND death in ALL age groups, REGARDLESS of immunity from prior infection or vaccination.
The Boss is bringing his resistance to D.C.
Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Bandβs 20-date protest tour begins in Minneapolis with a final concert at Nationals Park, three miles from the White House, on May 27.
Suppression of a free and independent press is treason
Remind me about Jesus and the money changers in the temple β¦ I forget the details

Video Analysis of ICE Shooting Sheds Light on Contested Moments www.nytimes.com/2026/01/15/v...
Long before I got involved with climate change, I was the Pentagon correspondent accredited by a leading news organization, and competing directly against the Washington post correspondent. None of us worried about our homes being invaded.
Post from Julie K Brown that says Does somebody at the DOJ want to tell me why my American Airlines booking information and flights in July 2019 are part of the Epstein files (attached to a grand jury subpoena)? As the flight itinerary includes my maiden name (and I did book this flight) why was the DOJ monitoring me? Record Locato American Arlines CONPIDENTIAL for official
Julie K. Brown is a reporter for the Miami Herald who did groundbreaking work on Epstein beginning in 2018, including groundbreaking work on the disgusting coverup by Alex Acosta.
Her travel itinerary was released with some of the Epstein files. It appears the DOJ was monitoring her in 2019.
"The hospital was understaffed, and people in the camp were so anemic that they couldnβt get enough blood donations. [Dr.] Otieno had twice donated himself while he was midsurgery in order to save a pregnant womanβs life."
@annamaria.bsky.social on the real-world damage done by Trump's aid cuts:
Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.
Heβs gesturing to a sleeping man as he says βHeβs the only leader in the world who can help end [the war in Ukraine].β
Gotta be βwho writes the headlinesβ
"It is ridiculous, it is embarrassing". Sen. Mark Kelly rips Pete Hegseth, noting he's in the National Command Authority for nuclear weapons, yet he's posting "turtles with rocket-propelled grenades". Kelly says he should be fired.
Justice Department struggles as thousands exit β and few are replaced β¦ because at the moment that job would be a blot on your resume forever
Not paying out SNAP is a choice, not an inevitable consequence of the shutdown.
Lawmakers could, by the end of today, pause the expiration of existing licenses for businesses that take EBT, move money from non-essential functions and maintain existing beneficiaries for the duration of the shutdown.
Press repression is un-American
I donβt see the bit about βe pluribus unumβ
We got our heat pumps installed a few weeks back and now we are easily 75 outside in Vt in late Sept and I refuse to use them first for AC which we never had and please GMP come put a meter on the solar panels so we can put some kWh by while we can the tomatoes
Well then, why should Congress vote to temporarily keep the government open? Let the tyrant do it unilaterally. Or shut it down.
Hegseth orders rare, urgent meeting of hundreds of generals, admirals β WashPost β I bet he wants to know who pilfered his quart of frozen strawberries (google it)
βThe left.β βThe right.β As if.
Jimmy K will doubtless have a record audience on Tuesday. But SCOTUS are not amused.
So were we!
Too subtle?
It ran in print July 3 1995. I was jealous and proud at the same time. I will be cooking something simple and delicious and thinking of the time she let me be βMs Foxββs guest as she prepped to review a fancy DC restaurant. The power of the press resides in truthful people.
