Watching, listening and, hopefully, learning. Love life, grandkids and good stout, not necessarily in that order.

#reposts not necessarily endorsement. I don't respond to DMs

Regulations are what keeps ordinary Americans healthy and, often, alive.

It took spoiled meat and rodent droppings out of our food. It took harmful lead out of our gasoline and paint. It took poison out of our water.

Deregulation only achieves one goal: making rich corporations richer.

Rand Paul: "I see not even a hint here of anything aggressive on [Pretti's] part. I don't think this should take months and months. There needs to be a conclusion ... the public needs to know, if I go to a protest and shout something at people, could I be killed?"

Pam Bondi is pure trash and an embarrassment to the legal profession and to what used to be a honorable institution - the DOJ.

The reasons for Bondi's contempt are secondary to the contempt itself. It doesn’t really matter that her clown act was intended to protect Donald Trump. More important is holding her accountable so future officials know clown acts come with a price.

The Pride flag at the Stonewall Monument is re-raised!

New Yorkers won’t let Donald Trump erase LGBTQ+ history, or trample the rights of our LGBTQ+ neighbors.

Donald Trump is bragging that he's “very proud” of this economy.

But his first year in office was marked by the weakest job growth in more than a decade outside of Covid.

Trump needs to stop denying reality and start fixing the economic pain he's caused.

It's bad enough that everyone knows that Trump is a needy toddler who thirsts over meaningless participation trophies, but saying "clean coal" is like saying "fragrant raw sewage."
