Les Miserables: Do you hear the people sing: Sung by 17 Jean Valjeans from around the world
Les Miserables: Do you hear the people sing: Sung by 17 Jean Valjeans from around the world YouTube video by Yustos Anthony

Given the particular political times we are in, not only in the US but globally, hearing this piece from Les Misérables from 17 Jean Valjeans in a multiplicity of languages, and the history those languages represent, is quite poignant. It makes my eyes leak.

So it’s ok for a country to invade another country and kidnap its president? I hope that the rest of the world is paying attention. I have a president . . .

Lawmakers revive effort to allow sandhill crane hunting in Wisconsin For the third time in 12 years, Wisconsin lawmakers are advancing a proposal that would create a sandhill crane hunting season in the state.

Blaming Democrats for a shutdown when you control the House, Senate, and the White House only proves you can't govern.

Isn't that the point of any Friday proclamation/announcement/tweet/lie that comes out of the White House? Confusion, Chaos, FUD.

Federal Watchdog Reveals Dozens of Inquiries Into Trump’s Withholding of Funds The investigations by the Government Accountability Office come as the White House looks to expand its power over the federal budget.

NEW: Top federal watchdog says they have opened more than *three dozen* investigations to determine if President Trump violated federal law by improperly withholding congressionally authorized funds. Earlier, Dems estimated Trump has blocked more than $400b.

No matter how well you play, if you are consistently a bully on the neighborhood basketball court eventually the other kids won't invite you to the game and will play without you. We have become the bully and the rest of the kids are going to start enjoying b-ball without us. #tariffs #politics

2025 Supreme Court of Wisconsin Candidate Questionnaire In anticipation of the April 1, 2025 election, we sent a questionnaire to the two candidates running for Wisconsin Supreme Court.

Ok #Wisconsin . This is a no brainer. The Wisconsin #aclu sent out a questionnaire to Crawford and Schimel to help us compare their #SupremeCourt candidacies. Take a moment and read their answers. How can we elect a judge who won't even answer?

I tried to fact check this bizarre answer on @maddow.msnbc.com by trying to get in contact with DOGE. There’s no phone number or email publicly available. If a Member of Congress couldn’t get in touch with DOGE how do they expect anyone else to?

Yes the math, but in the end reactance, inductance, susceptance, capacitance show up in a lot of places and I'm still getting my head around them. But in the end I got enough right to pass.

Trump administration tells agencies they can ignore Musk order on email reply The Office of Personnel Management told HR officials that employees wouldn’t be let go for not replying to an email asking what they did last week.

President Trump and President Musk need to get on the same page. After creating unnecessary chaos, they once again prove their incompetence.

While the Musk and Bannon #Nazi salutes are despicable and should be condemned we are missing the point of the gesture. They manage to control the narrative for yet another cycle. They throw out red meat and we spend valuable cycles talking about it. How do we control the narrative ourselves?
