It was a Boo-Yah kind of evening in New York last night as over $3 million was raised en route to the #VictoryOverCancer … bringing the cumulative total over the past 10 years to $75.1 million. The focus of this remarkable event is the funding of research that addresses cancer health inequities.

“What an amazing gift to find yourself exactly where you want to be … It’s a great feeling to take into my 6th decade as a human on planet earth. Grateful for every day.” ~ @terihatcher.bsky.social

Sending a warm ‘60th’ birthday greeting to Teri. Birthdays with ‘0’ at the end don’t phase her!

Happy ‘96th’ birthday to the one and only Mickey Mouse. Originally drawn as a rabbit called Oswald, Walt Disney’s iconic character made his star turn as the lovable mouse Mickey during the premiere of the animated short film “Steamboat Willie” on November 18, 1928.

The rest is history …

“Donald Trump, a political accelerant, has ignited…a conflagration that will singe him. And because of him, the hard, gemlike flame of Jane’s Madison’s intellect will again illuminate Washington, if the Senate is provoked into rediscovering its role.” ~George Will
Opinion | The Senate’s Madisonian opportunity on those nominations
A good thing about Trump’s ghastly nominees: They could jolt the Senate into reclaiming its independence.
