Always fun to read about Miami’s feathered wild life. abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory...
Wild chickens take over Miami while some embrace roosters as a cultural symbol
Flamingos, pelicans, herons and parrots are just a few of the wild birds that call Miami home

How much do you think it costs to make a pair of Nike shoes in Asia?

There are 33m companies in the USA. Only 21k employe 500 or more. And they only make up 23% of workers.
Trump and Elon are ignoring the more than 32m entrepreneurs that can't afford to build a new factory or pay tariffs or absorb cancelled contracts.

Donald Trump has committed the most profound, harmful and unnecessary economic error in the modern era. Almost everything he said—on history, economics and the technicalities of trade—was utterly deluded econ.st/3YbbFjq

Opinion | America Has a Rogue President
The firing of three judge advocate generals is one more element of this administration’s attack on the rule of law.

True story: I once hosted a meeting at ED with Peter Yarrow and @alexdsanchez.bsky.social and he brought his guitar and told us stories and of course advocated for music in schools.
Crazy thing is he was in my dad’s fraternity at Cornell and just a few years below him. They were friends. RIP

Really sad to hear of Jimmy Carter’s passing. A President who really tried every day (whether in office or not) to make life better for people. Through his work to support political prisoners, he made a big impact on my family and our American story. Thankful for him.

RIP to Jimmy Carter. His first and possibly only visit to Disneyland was May 31, 1982, when he jogged through it for about 15 minutes, described here in the Disneyland Line of June 10, 1982.

When I say that the right is dominating the left on almost all platforms, this is what I mean. I hope Democratic officials take this into account every day. If you want an ecosystem that will advocate for YOU, then YOU need to help build it. Give interviews to creators, break news with creators...

Trying to escape Twitter (again). Looking for somewhere where I can follow politics, college football (Florida State, y’all), theme park news, and tiki bars. Let’s hope this is better than Threads 🤞🏽
