EXCLUSIVE: After Trump took over the Kennedy Center in Feb, he vowed to make it "hot" again. So, how's it doing? @jeremybmerrill.com and I used data from the center's ticketing website to find out. Ticket sales are lowest they've been since the pandemic.

Diversity is our strength, no matter what racist, bigoted Republicans say.

Real Americans embrace diversity, equity and inclusion.

Real Americans reject Trump and his white nationalist cronies.

Trump is bad, project 2025 is bad and the people who love America, the real patriots reject both.

Kinda useless but cool statistic!

Just finished doing a dive into audiobook accounting. So far this year, customers have listened to a little over 4,900 HOURS of my audiobook narration! (If I've done the math right, that's ~40 hours a day!!)

No wonder I'm tired!!

If I had a band or a label, I would do a punk cover of "No More Kings" from Schoolhouse Rock. And then I would gather a bunch of people to write a whole album of next-generation Schoolhouse Rock songs, with songs about Social Security and Medicaid and NOAA. I am not kidding in the least.

Now, the USPS is preparing to push back as Trump moves to dissolve its leadership and bring the independent agency under his administration’s control. America, this cannot be allowed—protecting the USPS is essential.

Please share this and call Congress.

Last night I attended the Save Our Services rally in New York City. Listen to Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) fighting for people & federal workers:

“Every day our job is to wake up and say ‘what can I do today?’ — There is no act too small. Every action matters.”

In one of Elon’s outcries about fraud, he actually ended up cutting funding for cancer research. Despite initially denying it, he was later proven wrong. This incident highlights how little he actually understands about what he’s doing.

Additionally, Mr. Patel perjured himself during his confirmation hearing last month. We demand an investigation—no one should be above the law.

New resignation emails have been sent out with added fine print and stricter terms. Some contracts now require employees to work through February 28 before being placed on paid leave by March 1, contradicting earlier claims that no work would be required.

Trump is in it only for himself. As the Kash Patel hearing and Trump's hijacking of the plane-crash tragedy show, the president's top 2nd term priorities are: 1) revenge, 2) revenge, and 3) revenge. My latest @postopinions.bsky.social column. wapo.st/42xEJop
