Me neither. Nightmare, shameful nightmare.

I never thought I would see the leader of the American nation siding with the Kremlin in a war of aggression.

damn, I did not realize the prosecutor who blew the whistle on the Adams deal and resigned from DOJ was a Fed Soc member and Scalia clerk.

Tariffs is the weapon of weak nations with closed economies to prop up own uncompetitive industries. It stifles competition and innovation, prevents resources from flowing to more productive sectors, results in lower growth, higher prices and less choice. Good luck


Agree with the sentiment. There was that slavery thing, and then that Jim Crow thing…..

If we’re being honest, this version of the Republican Party is worse than any version of the Democratic Party in the history of the Republic — in every possible way.



Thank you, Chief @pibutler, and all your colleagues and team members for your heroic service. Forever to be remembered and honored.

Hi @BrianaCap , thank you for the kind words. As Fire Chief of Redondo Beach your post truly lifted our spirits. This is a video taken while @RedondoBeachFD Engine 61 in midst of fighting fire as 80mph winds tried to test their resolve, but could never break our spirits



This is absolutely wonderful! Deepest bow to our great first responders. Truly massive public servants. Shame, shame on all those who criticise and complain for cheap political gain. Glory to the heroes!

Literally crying in the Target parking lot right now. 🧵 I was struggling with unloading my toddler, my bags and wrangling an unruly cart (seriously — why do some lack power-steering?) A fire truck from Redondo Beach (E61) had just parked nearby and four firefighters got out.

Spent last week licking wounds. Now it's time to get to work. Some thoughts on the path forward. In short, we need to rebuild the left. No band aids. Admit that our policies don't connect with people emotionally. Stop being so afraid of populist fights. Build a bigger tent.


Keep a'going @RadioFreeTom. Wasn't it Churchill who said democracy was the worst form of government ... except for any other?

Just listening to @anadelavega10 and friends play Bach Brandenburg Concertos (and other works, arranged for the forces of the ensemble). Magic. Blessings to you all. Please roll on!


Been listening these last few days, over and over, to @nezetseguin and @SeongJinCho playing Mozart. So beautiful. Please roll on.
