The title of this song, Rockin' Roll Baby, implies that the girl is a roll baby who is rocking. Shouldn't it be Rock'n'Roll Baby? #AT40

Oh, my. "Perfect" album from 1984? "Born in the U.S.A." had 7 hit singles. "1984" debuted Eddie's synth. "This is Spinal Tap" is perfect in the wrong way. "Footloose" is a soundtrack. "Love at First Sting" solidified Scorpions in the States. "Learning to Crawl" is peak Pretenders. But for my money?

Good morning, #AT40, sorry I'm late. Repairman at house, installing new water heater I've waited 8 months for. When are we? Crystal Gayle? Oh, hell yeah, I'm ten years old and just discovering that women are really beautiful, aren't they?

Man, won't it be something if my fifteen years working from pre- to post-legalization of marijuana was a proof of concept for tax revolt soft secession of the blue states.
Though I'll remind the author: lots of folks (ladylove included) suffered raids and loss for years to achieve legal marijuana.

So I listened to the Bulwark guys' optimistic takes on the origami Democrats folding on the shutdown. I was still left with this nagging feeling they're missing one important piece. This essay crystallizes exactly what that missing piece is, and kind of explains why those guys would miss it. 👇🏻

A solemn and peaceful Veterans Day I wish all my fellow vets. I may have only been a peacetime Army National Guard bassoon player (MOS 02K), but that still gives me more military cred than the Commander In Chief.

So, Democrats are going to allow the government to open, getting the Republicans out of a deeply unpopular position, with only the promise of a senate vote to save Healthcare, with no guarantee it'll ever pass the House, which will not reopen, because Epstein. So Thune can say, "blame Johnson." 👇🏻

The SCROTUS¹ reasoning in Trump v Orr, maintaining Trump policy that only birth sex, not current gender, be indicated on passports, says noting birth sex is like birth country, just a historical fact.
🤔 Does anyone ever change their birth country? "Nigerian? Don't misnation me! I'm transSwedish!" 👇🏻

![From the majority in Trump v Orr: Displaying passport holders’ sex at birth no more offends equal protection principles than displaying their country of birth—in both cases, the Government is merely attesting to a historical fact without subjecting anyone to differential treatment. And on this record, respondents have failed to establish that the Government’s choice to display biological sex “lack[s] any purpose other than a bare . . . desire to harm a politically unpopular group.” Trump v. Hawaii, 585 U. S. 667, 705 (2018) (internal quotation marks omitted). Nor are respondents likely to prevail in arguing that the State Department acted arbitrarily and capriciously by declining to depart from Presidential rules that Congress expressly required it to follow. See 22 U. S. C. §211a.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:a4xtkf465xokefjsvlwtocd2/bafkreib5jx3xeoq4lk6kpyym2dx3kuntekpc3n66evyzqho2fj5fmr3xiu@jpeg)

"We will build a big beautiful wall with Mexico so the illegal aliens can no longer eat our wonderful Raisin Bran. It's got TWO SCOOPS, folks. Nobody thought you could do two. Mr. Kellogg told me, tears in his eyes, sir we can only do one scoop. I said, make it two! And they did, to great success."

It may not seem like a win, but a Black man running for mayor of Nampa, Idaho, as a Democrat just got 28% of the vote.
Nampa is my birthplace and where the mayor told the Washington Post the city is "against" LGBT Pride and where the state's ban on truck nuts originated. 👇🏻

To add to your politics good news, as I reported this morning, the entire Josephine County, Oregon, Republican Party Leadership & Officers resigned today on the steps of the county courthouse.
The GOP HQ, across the street from the courthouse, is closed until further notice.
Turning Point, indeed.
