Retired boomer, lifelong liberal, happy to be here. Apparently I’m a “radical left lunatic” too.
I peeked at Fox News to see how they covered yesterday’s protests. Crickets.

I have a question for anybody obsessed with #ThePitt, especially medical people. Why are they referring patients to “Family Medicine Trauma” instead of Internal Medicine Trauma or even just Medicine Trauma. Does Family Medicine even handle trauma in a Level 1 Trauma hospital?

If you worked for 18F and got fired, Group together to start a consulting company.

It’s just a matter of time before DOGE needs you to fix the mess they inevitably create.

They will have to hire your company as a contractor to fix it. But on your terms.

I’m happy to invest and/or help

Army Choir surrounded the MAGA hierarchy dining in White House East Room to sing "Do You Hear The People Sing"

It was lost on Trump but Vance was super fidgety

"Do you hear the people sing? Singing the song of angry men? It is the music of the people who will not be slaves again"

Arresting someone for calling you fascist seems an excellent approach to proving their point.
Former Vikings punter Chris Kluwe was arrested at a city council meeting after stating, “MAGA is explicitly a Nazi movement. You may have replaced a swastika with a red hat, but that is what it is,” before engaging in peaceful civil disobedience.

“Accidentally.” More like gross incompetence and mismanagement. Opposite of efficient.

Forever and again.
My latest:

"America Must Protect Itself From the Dangerous, Violent Fragility of White Male Mediocrity."

To protect white male supremacy, Trump & MAGA must attack DEI. But all their rage and cruelty can't mask their greatest weaknesses: their fear & fragility.

One of the few religious organizations I respect. I’m not surprised by their resistance.
Oh, per @nbcnews.com: Quaker groups file suit over the end of policy restricting ICE arrests in houses of worship.

Note: Quakers were some of the earliest supporters of Sanctuary, even putting out a booklet on the topic in 1984 (it's still available). www.nbcnews.com/politics/nat...

The suit appears to be the first from a faith-based organization challenging the change in court.

Last month, Sen. Deb Fischer's (R-NE) husband refused to shake the Vice President's hand.

Yesterday, he tried to shake Doug Emhoff's hand. The Second Gentleman replied: "Why would you try to shake my hand when you wouldn’t shake my wife’s hand?”

REPOST if you love Doug Emhoff!

Did he call her nasty and ban her from the WH yet?
REPORTER: You would agree it's never acceptable to assault police officers?

TRUMP: Sure

REPORTER: Among those you pardoned is a guy who used a stun gun on a police officer. Why does he deserve a pardon?

TRUMP: Well, I don't know
