It just gets worse and worse for President Trump. Results still matter, and on all the big issues, results are sucking. Americans know it, despite whatever propaganda Fox is peddling...

Snubbing Kennedy, States Announce Plans to Coordinate on Vaccines

A natural reaction to the bull$&it coming out of DC, but are we closer to a break up of the union that Abraham Lincoln worked so hard to save? Putin couldn’t have orchestrated our downfall as a nation any better than this…

Substack’s “Nazi problem” won’t go away after push notification apology Substack may be legitimizing neo-Nazis as “thought leaders,” researcher warns.

“I have a trade deficit with Applebees but we’re fine”

President Trump’s mindless tariffs will cause economic havoc But the rest of the world can limit the damage

The Economist and The Wall Street Journal, looney liberal rags that they are, have condemned Trump's tariffs as "mindless ... profound, harmful and unnecessary economic error" and "the end of U.S. economic leadership."

Excited at the launch of my future congressman’s campaign!

You know this, but you should call it a “townhall”, since Calvert can’t seem to figure out how to schedule one.

Local entrepreneur Brandon Riker launches Congressional campaign PALM SPRINGS, Calif. (KESQ) - Democrat Brandon Riker, a Coachella Valley resident and successful business entrepreneur, announced his campaign for California’s 41st Congressional District. Riker is a ...

So proud to be a part of this campaign, supporting a brilliant entrepreneur, philanthropist, and friend who is running to represent the desert (and points west) in Congress! One of the most flippable districts in America, CA-41.

Had a blast at the Red Dress Dress Red party here in #palmsprings last night, benefitting our local LGBT community center! My inadvertent Wynonna won them ovah.

Exactly!

In what world is it even arguable that birthright citizenship in the US isn't constitutional? There is NO argument, period.

Keene man arrested for storming the Capitol on Jan. 6 rejects Trump’s pardon On his first day in office this week, President Donald Trump pardoned all rioters at the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. Jason Riddle served time in jail for his participation in the 2021 riot.

I wonder how many January 6 rioters will see the light and reject their pardons as Jason Riddle did here...

Trump's Return-to-Office mandate blows. "The [US Patent & Trademark Office] operates ... the federal government’s most extensive telework program, with thousands of patent examiners working remotely across the country. Many were hired with explicit promises of permanent remote work arrangements."

Apple, Costco stand behind DEI programs Both companies' directors are encouraging shareholders to vote against resolutions asking them to reconsider DEI initiatives.

Costco & Apple. I was already an addict of both companies, and now I pledge them my undying loyalty for life!

No more sunny days? ‘Sesame Street’ finds itself homeless after 55 years. As “Sesame Street” enters what may be its final season, a Monitor columnist reflects on losing shows for children that created a set of tenets rooted in love.

How will we get to Sesame Street? Whither empath?

That’s awesome!

Happy to see you’re posting here again! 😃

You will read countless times today that the LA mayor cut the LA Fire Department's budget by $23 million.

That is a lie.

The budget was actually *increased* by $50 million.

2 dead and more than 1,000 homes, businesses, other buildings destroyed in L.A. County fires More than 1,000 homes, businesses and other buildings have burned and at least two people are dead in wildfires burning across L.A. County, making this one of the most destructive firestorms to hit th...

The deserts around Palm Springs (~1-2 hours east of the fires) while dry, are themselves at lower risk from wildfires than the LA basin, primarily due to low amounts of vegetation. Which is to say, Toby and I are safe, but in shock from the devastation unfolding here in SoCal.

I feel like we haven’t even begun to get a sense of the destruction. 😢
