Privileged male boomer and recovering federal criminal defense lawyer in PNW. Historian before that. I used to coach trial practice and soccer. Now: dogs, guitars, and planning my escape. Angry since 1968. “Where there’s law there’s injustice” (Tolstoy).
Not ready for prime time.
Delete your AI. You know that it’s evil in every way. Don’t use it. Value something better than convenience.
His boss of course would rather be in the winning women’s team locker room.
Delete your account. Just say no to Amazon. It’s not hard.
Between 1801 and 1913, the state of the union was delivered, not in person, but by a letter from the president to congress. We should return to that practice. Anyway, I won't be watching, listening, or paying any attention to it.

No.
The best way to watch the state of the union is with the TV (or your viewing device of choice) turned off.
Just say no and wait for the bubble to burst.
I'm sorry, but this is obfuscation. The reality is simple.
Trump and his adherents are fascist white supremacists aiming to destroy every good thing in America.
If you look at a choice between them and a Democrat - any Democrat - and go "eh, not left enough, I'll pass" you are a child and a fool.
Competition strong for worst person in Congress.
On the other hand, there’s Texas, where a grand jury declined to indict this:

The hobbits were notably fond of yellow and green. Just saying.
They’re going to take the minimum that they can get.
We have no idea how many people are hiding in attics right now.
Her paycheck depends on that.
Can confirm here.
I continue to believe that the fastest way to get Stephen Miller fired is to convince Trump that Miller's ICE operations are what cost him the Nobel Peace Prize.
Majority of the country now wants to abolish and/or dismantle ICE and yet Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y. told the caucus the message had to be to “restrain, reform and restrict ICE.”
Once again it looks like Schumer is about to choke after getting a massive opportunity.
So pathetic and weak.
Schumer, Jeffries and much of the current Democratic Party is not built for this fight or made for this moment.
They've had 10 years. Just look at their actions. Trust your own eyes.
We have to cull the party and replace the Vichy Dems with actual fighters and reformers.
It's the only way.
The DHS funding bill is effectively dead in the Senate.
ICE has now killed a white man and white woman.
Both citizens.
It isn't just immigrants, brown folks, Black folks, pro Palestinian activists and Muslims.
If this doesn't wake up "white moderates" and privileged centrists, then...all I can say is good luck.
@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, have the 7 Democrats who voted for more ICE funding been stripped of their committee assignments yet?
Trump post: Dear Prime Minister Carney: Please let this Letter serve to represent that the Board of Peace is withdrawing its invitation to you regarding Canada’s joining, what will be, the most prestigious Board of Leaders ever assembled, at any time. Thank you for your attention to this matter! DONALD J. TRUMP PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
Dear Canadian neighbors,
We are sorry that the U.S. president is mentally deranged. We hope to recover from this period of embarrassing stupidity and again be worthy of your friendship.
Sincerely,
Mark and other Americans who are not idiots
