Maybe corny but it was helpful for me to hear Henry Rollins saying "this is not time to be dismayed, this is punk rock time, this is what Joe Strummer trained you for... You can be thunderous in your own life, to the eight people around you. That rubs off... Goodness is viral"

Copper room talk? (Thanks, I'll be here all week!)
Tom Homan on what sure sounded like a quid pro quo between him and Eric Adams on Fox & Friends: "This is two cops talking. We're talking cop. Once you're a cop, you never lose that language ... this is a conversation between two cops having a good time, and people are making a lot out of nothing."

The man has two bronze stars from being a troop commander in Iraq, prior to Harvard Law and clerking for Roberts. Like Danielle Sassoon, the Federalist Society member, Scalia clerk. These folks are not even moderates.
