I am saying once again that the Conservative attack on the Arts is because they are incredibly envious of artists who they perceive as a group that has “too much” cultural power, a type of influence Conservatives crave but will never have because they’re anti-intellectuals with no imagination.

Trump’s allies now control X, Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, & TikTok.

They own Fox News, CBS, WaPo, WSJ & NY Post.

They own Sinclair Broadcasting which has 200 tv stations and local news in 100 markets.

“Freedom of speech” is now what Trump and his billionaire pals say it is.

Jack White responds to Newsom’s IG post that used “Seven Nation Army”:

"Fans of this song and also democracy, notice that I'm ok with this track being used in this manner. Not so much when trump and his gestapo try to use one of my songs. Keep hitting him back Gavin!"

I'll say it a million times before this is all over (if this is all ever over): our most important audience is each other.
Occurs to me that Trump's entire regime consolidation strategy is to persuade everyone through displays of force that the regime is already consolidated and there's no point in resisting. Which I don't think will work, but also shows how important public acts of noncompliance are.

This week the diddler in chief will be traveling to Alaska, which he believes is in Russia, for his annual performance review.

I hope every reporter there asks him about his continued attempts to distract from
the Epstein files.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Pets are family. No one should be forced to decide between having a roof over their head & keeping their pet.

I'm introducing a bipartisan bill to better support homeless shelters so that people don’t have to part ways with their pets.
