How cool is it to be represented by a congressman, Jared Huffman, who not only plays guitar but brings his pal Rep. Jamie Raskin back home to join him on keyboards?

All of this concern for antisemitism on college campuses by the Trump admin is quite rich. Why no condemnation of the Proud Boys? Unite the Right in Charlottesville? “Make America Great Again” neo-Nazis in The Base? Exploiting us Jews for an authoritarian takeover of #HigherEd cannot stand.

As usual, @sulliview.bsky.social nails it, this time about the press' feeble approach to the chaos coming from the White House: "I’m disgusted by headlines and coverage that seem to cower, afraid to offend anyone ... This is not what we need right now." margaretsullivan.substack.com/p/four-essen...

Jeff Bezos never wanted this cartoon to become public.
He killed it, and as a result, pulitzer prize editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit.
Make sure everyone sees this cartoon.

THIS IS REALLY HAPPENING PEOPLE, WAKE UP.
I think this should be kind of a big deal: Elon Musk tweeting at 1:03am, “Only the AfD can save Germany.”
The AfD is Germany’s neo-Nazi party.

To my legions of followers I offer my inaugural post — a spawning salmon in Old Mill Park, Mill Valley. It was so great to see this healthy ecosystem in an urban setting!
