You’re offered so much, but you’re frightened to take it.

Music (punk, garage, new wave, jazz, indie, post-punk, glam, classical, whatever), Mets/Jets/Rangers, cats, beer, higher ed, travel, art, etc. Pro democracy, pro justice. Jersey since birth.

We’re more than a year away from midterms and 3+ from the next presidential election (presuming we have them) and I see it’s already “this Democrat doesn’t 100% meet my purity test, therefore they’re no different than Trump” season 🤦🏻‍♂️

This *only* helps Republicans.

When someone says their country executes pedophiles and you respond by claiming that they are calling for the execution of Donald Trump, you are revealing that you know Donald Trump is a pedophile.

Thank you for you attention to this matter.

In related news, Republicans in Congress cut Amazon’s tax bill by $7.5B last year. Priorities.

This will force low income students to drop out of college. They want a permanent underclass.

WOW. Incredible. This is the case in which DHS claimed that ICE officers had been attacked with a shovel and fired back in self-defense. Evidence since suggests an ICE officer fired through a closed door and struck someone on the other side.

Will DHS retract the prior claims?

If you haven’t watched All Her Fault yet, do so. Be prepared, it’s very intense in spots.

I wonder if any American actors can do an Australian accent as well as Sarah Snook can do an American accent. Not likely.

I read the Trump-backed voter suppression bill, the so-called “Save America Act,” so you don’t have to. Here’s my summary. Please tell your Senators to vote NO on this abomination: 202-224-3121. TY. 1/

Here’s a periodic reminder that MLB is full of shit. There aren’t rich teams and poor teams … just rich owners who spend on their teams and rich owners who don’t. And the latter will do anything they can to distract you from this fundamental truth.

From free agency to guaranteed contracts to franchise values, a salary cap would completely remake the MLB landscape.

The SAVE Act would require Americans to show a passport or birth certificate in person just to register to vote.

Millions of Americans don’t have access to these documents. This is voter suppression, plain and simple.

Call your senators to urge them to vote no: (202) 224-3121

The so-called Save America Act will force 21 million American citizens to produce passports or birth certificates just to register to vote. Most do not have them ready. Turning paperwork into a barrier is a poll tax by another name. #HandsOffHerVote social.demcast.com/s/L9X3k1fQ

The SAVE Act is voter suppression dressed up in fake patriotism. It’s designed to block millions of eligible Americans from voting—especially female, trans, & naturalized citizens.

The House votes Thursday.

Listen to David Pepper break it down.

Pam Bondi's unhinged performance in Congressional hearing today was not because she was protecting Trump. It's because Bondi is protecting herself. She's clearly implicated in the Epstein scandal because she served as AG of Florida from 2011 to 2019 when Epstein was raping children but did NOTHING!

🚨Military members - Under SAVE 2.0, your military ID wouldn't be enough to register to vote.

Service members born overseas could be blocked. They're attacking those who defend our democracy.
PROTECT the right to vote for our troops.

NEGUSE: AG Bondi, that man works for you now, right? The man in that video from J6 yelling 'kill them!' at cops. His name is Jared Wise.

BONDI: He does work for us, yes. I believe he was pardoned

NEGUSE: And you expect hard-working police officers to believe you take law enforcement seriously?

Democrats need to take the worst Epstein emails and turn them into full-size ads. Giant screenshots of these emails with a QR code that links to a website. Put them in subways and buses and on billboards. A 30 sec. commercial that has just the email on screen and the QR code and nothing else.
