A common refrain I hear from folks on the left is that just like Hitler, Mussolini, or Stalin…Trump and MAGA will fail and end in their destruction. Perhaps that’s true but a whole lot of people died during that lengthy process so I’d like to get work on staving that off as much as possible now.

All we’re waiting for is a couple of leaders to unify us all.

That’s why I propose in the podcast setting up a large legal defense project …. Would require a lot of pro bono legal work and and funding. But I think it can be done. More lawyers need to get onto defending the rule of law.

πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈToday, we remember those who lost their lives at Pearl Harbor 83 years ago. We shall remain eternally grateful for their service, and forever honor their memory.

People not elected to government should not have the power to reshape the government, especially people whose obscene wealth depends on the government functioning a certain way.

This is not a hot take.

It's just plain common sense.

Hey, here’s a crazy thought… Maybe, just maybe, President Biden wasn’t lying about not pardoning his son but later changed his mind when a maniac bent on revenge against his family won the election? I know, crazy, right? πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

Elon Musk is like a Bond villain, but without the charm, the sex appeal, the humor, the style, the rhythm, or the looks

Yeah Hitler was totally exaggerated…and so will be America’s Hitler, Donald Trump.

Trump’s new slogan β€œArbeit Macht Frei.”

Almost my entire family died in Auschwitz. I guess that never happened either.

May God have mercy on all the immigrant families. Run like my grandparents did. Run.

The upshot: I am a biographer of both Donald Trump and Elon Musk, and I cannot assure anyone reading this that either man is loyal to the United States.

The evidence suggests, rather, that they are loyal only to their own ambitionsβ€”and will betray America whenever it suits those ambitions to do so.

Freddy Mercury died of AIDS 33 years ago today. With modern medical technology, he likely would have lived. Never forget how much progress against major infectious disease has been made in a short time. We are at risk now of rolling back much of that progress.

I’m absolutely done with people pretending he’s not a felon. I’m exhausted by his lies, his smug grin, his terrible makeup, his arrogance, his voice, and his face.

I can’t wait for him to be out of our lives for good.

The Democratic governor of Colorado, Jared Polis, says Kennedy Jr. can do good things at DHHS. The Democratic senator from Delaware, Chris Coons, says DOGE could be great. Two MSNBC stars went to Mar-a-Lago to kiss Donald Trump's ring.

The capitulation must endβ€”Democrats must unite against fascism.

Story about a mom who thought a filed trip was about teaching her kids to be trans because the trip was to Walden Pond to learn about Henry David Thoreau, who was a transcendentalist.

Bullshit. If I had wanted power, I would have kept my mouth shut.

I preferred my conscience.

Once you realize that Trump isn’t nominating cabinet members to RUN agencies but DESTROY them, it makes more sense.
