Now that Congress has voted to release the Epstein Files, I assume we'll be getting something like this:
Dear Congress Jeffrey was a boy who may have done bad things, but he did not know Donald Trump. The pictures and emails are lies.

Glad the Chicago Sky won their first game. I love the way these women play. This is going to be a good team.

The Republicans are destroying our system of government. People were warned this would happen unless Harris/Walz won, but they voted for this by either:
a) Voting for Trump
b) Voting for someone who could not win
c) Not voting.
It is a sad day for our democracy that this bill has advanced. #Resist.

April 14th, a quiet day in an office that prepares a lot of income tax returns particularly when they are doing construction nextdoor.

I just had a tax return rejected because the Social Security Administration says he's dead. I think he'll be surprised to hear that when I talk to him tomorrow.

KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.
With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.
You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.

Day one of the Trump administration did nothing to make me feel good about what is coming. The signals that were sent by not placing his hand on the Bible for the oath, an apparent N**i salute from one of his top advisors, and the executive orders that were signed are bad omens for what is coming.

I have been following the people I come across who are from the Chicago area and I believe have similar political beliefs. In the coming years we are going to need a network of local people to help get us through and this is a way to build that.

My hope, as Trump is inaugurated today, is that in 4 years I will have to say to my Trump supporting friends, "I'm sorry, you were right, he was not as bad as I expected" and not "you were warned, we tried to tell you, but you would not listen, you should not be surprised with what's happening".

As I get older I am discovering that being with people, particularly groups where I know almost everyone, takes a lot of energy out of me. I can only socialize so long without a break, 2-3 hours is my comfort zone, 4 hours is my limit. It's not that I don't like people, I just get worn out

It amazes me the impact music can have. I put an album on from my high school days (Bee Gees Live) and the opening chords sent chills through me. I have been smiling since it started. (They put on a great show when I saw them a few years later.)
