Still searching for my Twitter replacement.

Staunch Independent caucusing with Dems since 2015. Health, data and communications nerd. Desperately seeking SportsSky.

Cheering on my Chicago and Illini teams from Colorado. 🔸🔹
1. Cry harder domers.
2. We should go back to traditional bowls.

Having a playoff hasn’t fixed anything and is actually making bowl season worse.

10-2 Notre Dame announces it will not accept a bowl bid after missing the playoff.

Good to know Netflix is woke. When I start cutting back on my streaming accounts because the economy is in the tank, I'll save Netflix for last.

Also, I would love a Netflix-HBO bundle.
The Orban playbook: use the regulatory powers of the state to ensure media is owned by your allies who turn it into propaganda for the regime.

Here’s Trump intervening to help his ally Ellison’s bid for Warner Bros (and CNN).

Since I haven’t seen anyone mention this: When the U.S. commits war crimes it puts our troops in danger also, as it gives a green light to other countries that they can do the same to us

I will continue to get the flu and Covid vaccines every year - as will my kids.

If there’s a reason we shouldn’t, show me the data!
🧵1/
FDA is supposed to protect us from unsafe and ineffective medicines and vaccines.

And yet 🫠...just like at CDC, it's the political appointed leadership holding the agency hostage...

FDA is failing in its mission as it turns a political hammer to the covid vaccines.

A few points in next post 👉
FDA to raise hurdles for vaccines, faulting COVID shots for 10 kids' deaths
Food and Drug Administration officials say they will ratchet up requirements for vaccine studies, citing concerns about COVID shots for kids. But public health experts question the agency's analysis.

Just another reminder that Northwestern sucks and no one should want to go there.

This is the most corrupt, lawless administration in the history of the United States and there’s no close second.

Demolishing the East Wing of the White House before finalizing plans for what will be built above its ruins is a near-perfect metaphor for Trump's approach to economic policy. The only difference is the wrecking crew doesn’t claim the rubble is evidence of unprecedented growth.

Alternate take if you are not a Trump toady like Judge Winebox: Performative militarization of a relatively safe city — extremely so around the White House — puts lives unnecessarily at risk. This avoidable tragedy all falls on the administration.
Pirro: "These Guardsmen and all who are here to protect the District are the line that separates a civilized society from a barbaric one."

Tragic. This young woman never should have been in D.C. There was no reason to deploy the guard. She should have been back home in WV with her family.
Trump says Sarah Beckstrom, one of the National Guard members shot in DC, has died.

She was 20 years old.

Yeah, she and Sheryl Sandberg can fuck all the way off with their Lean In bullshit. Gen Z has the right idea on this.

“Pick a fucking side.” ✊

He may not be Senate Leader, but he is the COMMUNICATOR we need right now! 🗣️
The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.

If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

I’m 💯 convinced the Cubs broke the timeline in 2016 and the Dodgers fixed it in October.
Marjorie Taylor Greene: "I was called a traitor by a man that I fought for 6 years for. I gave him my loyalty for free. I've never owed him anything. Let me tell you what a traitor is -- a traitor is an American that serves foreign countries."
