Every word the president spoke tonight was a lie, including “and” and “the.” I don’t know which prospect is more troubling: that he knows it’s a lie but ranted it out to the world like some demented dictator, or that his staff allows him to think that it’s true.

Some thoughts:
1. Micro-sized nuclear reactors are an interesting idea that could solve some significant challenges
2. The DOE has a long history of developing experimental reactor designs. It is completely appropriate that they be involved in the development of micro-sized nuclear reactors 1/

The Democrats in the Senate want to subsidize the cost of healthcare. The Republicans don’t want these funds to go to the insurance companies. So it seems a single-payer system administered by the government is the perfect compromise.

ICE terrorists kidnapping Afghan refugees outside a mosque here in Albany. If they are sent back to Afghanistan, they will almost certainly be killed. How do we stop this?

Just got out of another “explanation of employee benefits” meeting. My cost per paycheck is going up by 67%, and it is easy to compare plans if you have a relevant PhD and decades of experience. I don’t understand how anybody can sit through that and not come out in favor of single-payer healthcare.

Apparently the Scouts are too woke for the misogynist Chief Warmonger. Maybe we could form a competing group more loyal to the president and his priorities - sort of a Trump Youth Corps?

Men shot by the hundreds, disappeared after Sudanese city falls to paramilitaries, witnesses say
Fighters riding camels rounded up a couple of hundred men near the Sudanese city of al-Fashir at the weekend and brought them to a reservoir, shouting racial slurs before starting to shoot, according to a man who said he was among them.

If you are concerned about what is happening in the country, the easiest and most important thing you can do right now is VOTE. Don’t think this election doesn’t matter because there are no federal races on your ballot.
