OK, so I watched 'Adolescence'. Riveting. I cannot stop thinking about it. It was that good. Different in story line (solely about the perpetrator and family and not about the victim), and the way it was shot - each episode in one stream. The 'why', while never truly revealed spoke volumes.

Bad cup of coffee this. Too weak. No way to start the week. May yours be fully caffeinated.

Thomas Jefferson, a gifted man and founding father of this country provided many written essays of liberty and independence.

He also held slaves.

Are those the values we are upholding? Times have changed and we have evolved. We can do better than keeping to TJ’s values.
Glenn Youngkin takes a victory lap on Fox for University of Virginia ending DEI and says it's a step toward restoring the values of Thomas Jefferson

If today is World Book Day, here is a new piece of Spanish literature by a significant new voice. Fictional coming out story of a guy placed against the ‘coming out’ of the country of Panamá when the Canal was sold by the US. (And, mat it stay in Panamanian hands!!)

Day 20. A song that has many meanings to you (for me of late: pride, hope, fear and embarrassment)

Fact: there is really nothing we can do for 2yrs. So dems need to rant for 2yrs to convince voters to move to us. Problem: Dems focus group to find where voters are and go there. Reps make a stand and convince voters to come to them. Make OUR stand then rant, rant and rant on the lies, incompetence
Fam, how much time do you think we have if this is, in fact, a constitutional crisis? Some of y’all don’t seem to understand. We don’t have two years to wait this out. And I’ll call Congress whatever I damn will please to urge them to act and meet the moment. That’s part of participatory democracy.
Shitting on Dems for not performing how you think they should is the problem.
Work on white men first before you call other people "pathetic".
I say this as a white dude.

👇 I think there is something to this draconian theory. It makes the case for the importance of the Midterms and making sure Capt vonSmallHands approval rating sinks deeper and, better, faster.

There’s nothing Democrats can legitimately do to stop Trump, so we need a tactical pause in our fight to plan for the future.

Always kept my NYTIMES subscription current for a reason.

Exactly. The focus is the midterms to flip the House Dem.
Remember the midterms. Republicans knew they were bad news yet voted for them.
Party over country? You betcha.

WHAT?? I was in the precursor, Presidential Management Intern (PMI) program. It provided a wealth of super-dedicated public servants who lead with integrity and humility.

I will fight to have this program reinstated!
Among many other attacks, this order would end the Presidential Management Fellows program.

I was a PMF in 2009. The program provides a faster process way for federal agencies to hire staff with advanced training.

Cutting it is not “government efficiency.” It’s gutting the public sector.

Dan (article's author) is an astute interpreter of political polls.

Not to be a Debbie Downer, but this decrease may not be a deterrent as recent actions and words, I believe, indicate djt is out for global retribution for the Biden loss. I hope I am wrong.
