Because I'm equal parts cheap, lazy, and dumb, it wasn't until today that I learned the magic of microfiber cloths for cleaning. Damn!

Trump and Republicans keep getting asked what’s next in Iran. Their answers are β€œhopefully” this or β€œwe hope” that.Β 

Hope is not a strategy, and a plan built on hope alone is how we end up in decades-long wars that cost thousands of American lives.

These days, call out wins as they happen:

Yesterday I drove several miles for a breakfast burrito. It was excellent - and huge. Today I reheated the leftovers low and slow in the toaster oven and it was nearly as good as yesterday! #winning

Tbh I’m annoyed that so much of the sexism targeted towards my candidacy is about painting me as an influencer rather than a journalist.

It COMPLETELY erases my bartending career.

For real, have to wonder if the reason about SNL played into starting the war yesterday. (Remember the SOTU a few days earlier?)

Bright side, Colbert, Kimmel, and Seth got an entire weekend head start on tomorrow's shows.

It’s insane this is legal. People around Trump are profiting off war and death. I’m introducing legislation ASAP to ban this.

Okay *cracks knuckles*. Here’s a non-exhaustive list of things I’m doing.

1. Suing DoJ for Epstein training videos
2. Suing DOGE for documents
4. FOIA request for DHS OHC memo authorizing warrantless home entry
5. FOIA for kids’ letters confiscated by ICE at Dilley
6. FOIA for USAID docs 1/

In case you’re wondering how MAGA is taking the news. Let’s just say the group chat is in full meltdown mode.

Here’s what the loudest right wing voices are saying:

πŸ“Œ Tucker Carlson: the decision to attack Iran β€œabsolutely disgusting and evil.”

Someone told me they just watched Schitt’s Creek for the first time. Said they binged the entire series in 2 days because once they started they couldn't stop. I could relate!

Donald Trump promised to end wars, not start them. The consequences of war are so grave that our founding fathers established in the Constitution that the power to declare war is with Congress.

Congress must immediately reconvene to vote on a War Powers Resolution and end Trump’s reckless, unilateral march toward another endless war.

The American people must also be LOUD in their opposition. The public wants peace, not more chaos abroad. Your voice is powerful.

The IOC Olympic Truce calls for a global cessation of hostilities 7 days before the Olympic Games until 7 days after the Paralympics (February 6th-March 15th).

Russia and Belarus were excluded from the Milan Cortina Olympics for the invasion of Ukraine.
