George Harrison releases “My Sweet Lord” 55 years ago today.
“I’ve met so many listeners across the years who said it made them feel peaceful for 3 minutes,” he said. “It made spirituality feel like something you could sing along to while driving a car or washing dishes. That’s all I ever wanted.”

MTG needs to tell us what she knows about Trump and members of Congress leading up to January 6th. Have any reporters catering her media tour asked that question?

Personally, I think she sees which ways the winds are blowing and is getting the fuck out of dodge.
She could be legitimately disgusted by what the GOP and/or Trump is doing, but I don’t trust her at all.

They are getting more desperate to hold their fractured and fatigued base together.
The polls show it.
They can’t lie their way out of their economic mess.
Their own are becoming less tolerant of the brazen corruption.
Expect them to manufacture more culture wars to keep the rubes occupied.

She doesn’t even try to hide that she’s a spokesperson for Putin serving in the US Congress. Post after post, day after day, echoing Russian propaganda. Truly sad that people in Pinellas County have chosen this as their representation.

In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

"It's a mission statement that we are all part of a social contract," says biographer Walter Isaacson of the Declaration of Independence and the focus of his new book. "We the people. That's what our government is based on. It's not based on the divine right of kings." #Velshi
Walter Isaacson: Gov’t is based on ‘We the People…it’s not based on the divine right of kings’
Historian Walter Isaacson says the second sentence of The Declaration of Independence is the greatest sentence ever written and explains why in his new book. “That sentence influences everything,” Isaacson tells Ali Velshi. ”Getting people to participate based on that simple mission statement, I think could bring the pendulum back so that we wouldn't be as fractured as we are now,” he said.
