CBS and its parent company, Paramount, kowtows to the regime yet again. If you haven't cancelled Paramount Plus, it's time to binge Lower Decks, Elsbeth, Ghosts, and South Park and then get out of there.

I expected our state (TN) to be betrayed by Senators Bill Hagerty and Marsha Blackburn, and I wish I wasn't right. It's like the bill was targeting TN specifically, and we will suffer for it.

Roughly as many people turned out in the red city of Knoxville (7500) for No Kings Day as did for TFG's $45 million tinpot dictator parade (10,000, as estimated by Newsmax, so definitely a lot fewer than that).

Violence is what Trump wants. If you see violence at a protest, SIT DOWN AND STAY SAFE. Anyone engaging in violence is an agent of the tyrant, even if they think they aren't. DO NOT engage with them, DO NOT encourage them, and, above all, DO NOT join them.

With everything else going on, it's important remember to call your senator to tell them to vote against the "Big Beautiful Bill".

If you want me to watch your message movie, maybe don't make it about unmitigatably terrible people being terrible non-stop with all the subtlety of a hammer.

I wish the otherwise excellent Spunkshine ( www.youtube.com/@spunkshine ) wouldn't use AI for his music videos. If you like #lo-fibeats, he's really worth a listen.

In case you were still under the delusion that the MAGA immigration policy isn't entirely racist, look at how they are treating Afrikaaner "refugees" versus people actually fleeing prosecution who happen not to be the right sort of white. #MAGAisRacist

If you want to boycott local MAGA businesses, go to publicsquare. com and select "Near Me". The website is a voluntary directory promoting "anti-woke" businesses--the companies listed have to ask to be on it. #MAGAcult

Thanks to everyone who showed up at the protest in front of the Howard Baker courthouse in Knoxville. It's nice to see so many people driving by and waving. It's also hilarious to see people covering their faces when they drive by.
