Today once again proved that everyday citizens protesting their government are braver than the titans who own the largest media corporations, run the biggest law firms and lead the most powerful technology companies.

This image is haunting. The blood of a murdered poet, immediately slandered as a domestic terrorist by a lying regime, juxtaposed with her child’s stuffed animals.

Everyone should watch Senator Mark Kelly's brutal video response to the corrupt Trump/Hegseth effort to punish him. As @leahlitman.bsky.social says on the pod: "They are saying it is illegal to encourage people to follow the law."

Historians will have to somehow recount Trump and his era of chaos. America will see that one of its own, Trump, ripped the fabric of the nation. Trump defiled the office of POTUS. Trump is covering up his sex crimes.

Why are our military leaders obeying these orders when they know it is illegal ? I'm losing faith and respect.

My wife and I went out to lunch today.
My wife: "What is the quality that makes you want to be friends with someone, TK?"
Me: "Kindness. It's always been kindness. If I see someone acting kind to others, I want to be friends with them."

So, this should finally put to rest any delusions that there are decent people left in the US military who will stand up to illegal orders and protect democracy. The US military is now more likely to kill US citizens rather than help them. They are not our friends.

What the KENNEDY Center used to be…
Remember that time Aretha Franklin performed at the 2015 Kennedy Center Honors, paying tribute to Carole King, who co-wrote “You Make Me Feel Like A Natural Woman,” and it brought a tear to Obama’s eye and everyone to their feet? And Carole King’s reaction. Wow.

At year end, the dividing line in politics today is defined by dignity. Dignity is something that can't be taken away. It can only be surrendered voluntarily. We saw the most powerful business leaders willing to surrender dignity while everyday Americans stood tall.

"When it happens, Republicans will object (and you can only imagine the meltdown Trump himself will have on Truth Social). The response Dems give should be simple: *Too bad. We have the power now.* A strong message must be sent to the country and future generations that Trump will not be honored."
Why every vestige of Trump must be torn down
He's trying to create a physical legacy. The moment he's out of power, it has to be smashed to bits.
