It's surprisingly better than I expected. I couldn't care less about Caleb Mir, but I don't have to care about him to enjoy the show.

Civil rights leader Jesse Jackson has passed away at the age of 84. My thoughts are with his family.

I wanted to share this clip from his appearance on Sesame Street in 1971. His important words ring just as true today as they did back then.

I just "celebrated" Lunar New Year by accidentally dumping a pound of mei fun on the kitchen floor, instead of eating it as planned. So how's your week going?

Bitterness and cynicism are a form of surrender, when anger at injustice remains but the will to confront it is dulled by resignation. As true warriors, let anger at injustice be bright and righteous, and let it drive us to confront its cause, stand in its way, and cast it down.

We’re out here getting shot and killed by Trump’s Temu Mall Cop Gestapo.

All we ask of Democrats is a little BACKBONE.

Hold the line and vote NO on the DHS funding bill tomorrow.

Someone in Congress needs to sponsor the Pretti-Good Act of 2026. It would:

1) remove immunity from any federal agent who willfully and intentionally violates the constitutional rights of a civilian;

2) prohibit any federal agent from pretending to have a judicial warrant if they don’t, from

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

FYI: Dems in the senate can't defund ICE. ICE is funded by the Big Ugly Bill. Shutting down DHS on this vote wouldn't touch ICE, but it would shut down FEMA, TSA, Coast Guard, etc. Shutting down ICE requires taking back Congress in the midterms. Dismantling DHS requires the White House in 2028.

Unless the alleged opposition party commits itself to undoing everything Trump did and prosecuting the people responsible, the United States will not be seen as a trustworthy partner for at least a century.

If you're a soldier in the 11th Airborne Division being ordered to prep for deployment to Minnesota or Greenland, remember that you have the right to apply for conscientious objector status.
