He orders extrajudicial killings. He sent troops into our cities. He terrorizes citizens with ICE raids. He raised taxes without congressional approval. He has ruined American farmers and ranchers. He plans to starve the vulnerable. He demolished our house.
Remove him from office.

Day 3 post top-surgery. I got dressed and (slowly) walked to the coffee shop this afternoon. A short trip out of the house to get some sunshine.
On the way, I told Dani this is the most comfortable I’ve ever felt in my body.

Was rad to have @strombo on my 100th episode of the #graventownpodcast - download it anywhere you do your podding. Here’s a snippet of our convo where he dug back to childhood days and how he never worried (even then) about fitting in.
