I love traveling to scenic places, reading and watching hopeful science fiction, experiencing musical theater, and hoping that history stops repeating itself.

I’m just saying that when it happens I’m jumping out of bed, running to my window, and tossing a coin to a boy to buy the biggest goose in town

Rule of law is β€˜endangered,’ chief justice says Speaking at Georgetown Law, Chief Justice John Roberts denounced β€œad hominem” criticism of the justices.

It's almost as if granting a criminal blanket immunity was a bad idea.

A couple of yellow-bellied sapsuckers are doing what they do in a tree. The first one gasps and says: "Leaves! Finally! Spring is here! Relief from the misery at last!" The second one goes "Oh, this winter wasn't so bad, in fact, the daily highs were well above average–" but this statement gets interrupted by the thoughts of the first bird thinking "I could kill him. No one would have to know."

"Good luck to the Great people of Canada.

It’s time for accountability. When we get back to Congress next week, articles of impeachment need to be filed against Pete Hegseth.

No due process means he decides your guilt or innocence. Not the courts. Not a judge or a jury.

No longer will you be deemed innocent until PROVEN guilty.

You’ll be declared guilty and snatched off the streets with no recourse.

Is the wisdom of the Constitution kicking in yet?

Now that Trump has caved to China, because that’s what this is, it looks like Peter Navarro will have more time to spend with his obscure 18th century economic theories.

This past week, the Chinese learned

1) exactly where Trump's pain points are;

2) how much to squeeze them before he flinches;

and

3) how little America's partners and allies want to help this president.

Highly useful information.

Justice Sotomayor with a bone-chilling dissent today: β€œThe implication of the govt’s position is noncitizens AND US citizens could be taken off streets, forced onto planes, confined to foreign prisons with no opportunity for redress…This Nation's laws is designed to prevent, not en-able, their rise.

That’s why the quote about the beam & the mote was so frequently used in my childhood. I was surrounded by spiritual people who consistently used whatever they learned to criticize others & RARELY used what they learned to gain self-insight on themselves.

It was a BIG problem in spiritual circles.

Furthermore, with spiritual narcissists, I find that they really only want to be a smidgen more moral than someone else.

They don’t hold themselves to a high standard - they just think: β€œIf I’m a tad better than someone else, then that means I’m moral merely by comparison."

Religious people are often VERY immoral. But they constantly compare themselves to a black sheep nearby who can play the role as a β€œbigger sinner than they are.”

Deflect from their shame.

Allowing them to continue their self-righteousness without true self-reflection on their own behavior.

The Netanyahu government has killed 50,000 people in Gaza & wounded 112,000.

Two weeks ago, they broke the ceasefire and have since killed 322 children & wounded 600.

The US must end its complicity.

Tomorrow, I will force votes to block $8.8 billion in arm sales to Netanyahu.

5 things Trump did this week

1. Tanked the stock market

2. Falsely claimed Honda was building a new plant in Indiana

3. Flip flopped on tariffs again

4. Suggested the two stranded astronauts could fall in love

5. Flew to Florida to go golf
