❤️💥🇺🇸 This is one of a few songs stuck in my head lately. What an insanely beautiful rendition of Quincy Jones’ tune… for worse, for better, for always: “everything must change”

classic nazi tactic
Senator Ted Cruz posted a dramatic video of LAPD cars on fire with the caption “this… is… not… peaceful.” What he didn’t mention? The footage was from 2020, not 2025. His post on X falsely implied it was current, part of a broader effort to spread lies and manufacture a crisis.

I swear maybe 500 Dylan covers could do justice to this moment, but this one echoes in my mind… I so love these jazz chords, wish like hell I could write lyrics like these tailored to our times.

I’m Lookin up into

I was born in October 1965 but I didn’t meet my biological father until the summer of 2012. ‘Good To Know You’ is my musical reflection about gaining a father at midlife and learning how to navigate that relationship. Spoiler: It has a happy ending.

Lord knows there are a million Bob Dylan covers… but up there w Jimi’s all “along the watchtower” & a few others I’m glad to include this.
Damn wonderful rendition + performance. I’m still working out the guitar lines. So smooth.
Thanks @radiofreeflorida.bsky.social 👊

Cost of extending the expiring Trump tax cuts for the rich: $4.6 trillion

Cost of cutting corporate tax rate to 15%: $1 trillion

Both Trump proposals will explode the deficit and be used as an excuse to gut programs that millions rely on.

It's reverse Robin Hood.

Other than that, how did you like the play Mrs. Lincoln?
The world’s richest person, without any actual authority, is infiltrating entire govt agencies and gaining access to sensitive info.

And it's being done in an effort to slash federal spending in the name of "efficiency" so America’s wealthy can get another huge tax cut.

We're in the midst of a constitutional crisis.

The world's richest man is effectively orchestrating a coup.

At the very least, Senate Dems should not be confirming any of Trump’s nominees for any agency while this power grab continues.

Nothing should be "business as usual."

Dems knew, and talked abt, Project 2025. So hadn’t they prepared a playbook of response before the election.? You know, like just in case?

One of the truisms about France is that government services work fairly well when government employees aren’t on strike.
