When you think about it for more than 5 seconds, it really is both insane and outrageous that *HILLARY CLINTON* - a woman who apparently has never met with nor corresponded with Jeffrey Epstein was one of the first people deposed.

No surprises, surely?
Candidate is arrogant charmless TV presenter & hates everything: lose.
Campaign is entitled technocracy + smearing left-liberalism: lose.
Candidate is local & can make OK speech about how a good job should lead to a good life: win.
Normal politics is trying to be born.
They grilled Hillary Clinton for 6 hours today under Oath. She’s a former FLOTUS who never met Epstein or had anything to do with him. They ended up asking her about UFOs. 🛸Wouldn’t it be smarter to Question THE CURRENT FLOTUS, who has known Epstein for decades, and partied with him REGULARLY?

It could improve access to safe abortion in Europe by funding travel from countries with less access.

Here's the speech I gave tonight as part of the Univ. of Washington Grad School's Public Lecture.
It's about how impeachment can save our republic and rekindle its spirit of liberty.

The fact that some people are still desperately trying to convince you that "2025 was a bad year for movies" and "there are no good movies anymore" tells me that many of these "critics" are frauds who desperately need to see more movies.

If you think you want to start a collection of physical copies of movies and/or CDs, I cannot stress to you that starting now is crucial. You can still find great stuff for a few bucks. Once it hits vinyl pricing we're done. THIS is the time to go hard.

Paid a wage anyone would love, light physical activity, and it was for a public good.
It's not difficult stuff, people. Your boss just makes it difficult.
The ICE surge in Minnesota cost $280M to detain 4k people. Of those- only 30 were accused of violent crimes.
$9 million per capture of the "worst of the worst".

I need to rant about something this morning.
I really am getting irritated by resistance accounts that, while otherwise approaching our problem correctly, keep telling us voting won't matter and the election won't be free and fair. Not only is that not helpful, it's actually harmful...
I know I sound like a broken record, but is our military paying attention?
Do the generals and admirals get it yet? They’ll be slaughtering people in foreign lands while the American people are sick and dying or dying in concentration camps at home.
You won’t be fighting for anything worthwhile.
