Sucks that Junior High bullies are in charge. The worst people.
This is not normal, and continued and ever-increasing rhetoric like this should not be treated as normal. #holdfast #steadystate

Violence is not the answer but it would feel good to choke him out. This is absolutely bonkers from the POTUS / CIC to publicly announce and should not be overlooked or accepted. Just plain wrong. So infuriating!

Somehow “Democratic leadership doesn’t have a strong message right now” is up against “Republican leaders are protecting a years long elite level pedophile ring” and that really makes no sense.

We took a few weeks off while my singer was recovering from a procedure and man it felt good to meet up and jam again. We are excited to start working on new songs and are already pumped for an exciting 2026 season.

On the fence about the new Springsteen biopic. Can just one of these movies not have an arc of “when nobody believed in them, and laughed in their face, they persevered and showed the world …”

ICE a few towns over. Apparently some serious injuries as the assholes went after employees preparing food and doing dishes. Fucking stupid and so maddening. I hate this administration.

If Team Trump has gotten away with X stuff already, and it appears the Epstein files will end him … what could they be beyond our wildest imagination? I mean rape and murder of minors on video? Who knows?

A fox was napping in my yard in what seemed odd behavior. Anyone who knows can you tell me if this one has mange or something? Looked sickly and odd.

These last few days really makes me wonder if this administration, who loves the 2nd Amendment so much, is about to limit the 1st Amendment because their thin skin can’t handle opposition (truth).

I am 53 - which feels accurate - going off names I at least recognize as being musical performers even if I couldn’t name one song. Mid-60’s if I have to call out material. But Coachella never was my scene.
your real age is 70 minus the number of musicians you recognize playing at coachella 2026

Literally EVERY accusation is an admission
Rep. Michael Rulli: "The Democratic Party... your rhetoric needs to be toned down... when Joe Biden was in office, we listened, we watched, and we spoke, but we spoke fluently and we didn't speak with this hate... you tried to kill our president twice. You actually killed Charlie. Enough is enough."

Good question. I mean Chicago has a right to defend itself so what’s going to happen when a couple tiggers get pulled in the name of self preservation? How does this escalate?
if i had the opportunity to ask a question of anyone in the administration, given this "war in chicago" messaging, i would ask them how many americans the president intends to kill in his war

Frightening to now know there’s no grownups who are able to say enough and stop this bullshit from continuing. Sure he’s the president but he can’t just *do* this right? Someone send Grandpa away.
The president of the United States just declared war, actual military war, not a metaphorical one, on a major American city, and one governed by his political opponents.
In any other period, this would be impeachment-worthy.

Any suggestions for improving my feed with positive or non-political content? Getting 90% Trump in my face is making me mentally weary.
