P.S. As counter-intuitive as it may seem (because it is) laughter and humor during ugly, scary and dangerous times is the next best thing to real magic. Iโ€™ve always been my funniestโ€ฆwhen the shit hits the fan. Drop the societal rules for appropriatenessโ€ฆand use it.

Congress: They Know Heโ€™s Dangerous. They Enable Him Anyway. You've never seen a multi-layered, politicalโ€“psychologicalโ€“sociological deep dive on the subject like this one. I guarantee it.

Tuggin' my sleeve, Chicago is
The Wrigley Building, Chicago is
The Union Stockyard, Chicago is
One town that won't let you down
It's my kind of town.

Release the Epstein Files!!

I was a skeptic about the import of the Epstein files.

But 3 invasions of cities, one military buildup outside Venezuela, a government shutdown, and so many other things meant to distract have me convinced whateverโ€™s in there is the biggest presidential scandal in U.S. history.

Referring to the abuse visited upon over a thousand girls as a โ€œred herringโ€ is nasty work, you asshole.

Stoke fear. Exploit desperation. Suspend the rule of law. Fan brutality.

Every time the stronger brutalize the weak, itโ€™s fundamentally the same playbook.

Our duty is to stand up to brutality.

Our moral obligation is to protect the vulnerable and hold the powerful accountable.

I served as a Combat/Special-Operations Weather guy (SOWT/CWT), deployed all over the globe with Green Berets, 3 tours in Afghanistan alone. When I hear a POTUS say โ€œuse American cities as training groundsโ€ for troops, I know what that really means: turning soldiers into police. Thatโ€™s a red line.
