1. You may have noticed something. I used to talk about the president’s dementia pretty regularly, but haven’t in months. That’s because I’ve lost faith. I used to believe the Washington press corps would see the plainly obvious. I no longer believe that. The hypocrisy is too baked in.

On the anniversary of John Lewis's death, 100+ people are making good trouble in Valparaiso. I brought chocolate chip cookies today; they disappeared in short order, so I'll make more next time. Doing my part to Make a Better World Through Baking™!

Out with about 75-100 people in Valparaiso, Indiana, today, encouraging sanity in these frightening times. We are very grateful for the shade of the tall trees around the courthouse!

We delayed our drive home to join 100+ at the peaceful No Kings protest on Sanibel Island, FL. Time for Congress and SCOTUS to get the message that a whole lot of American people are angry about the current regime's attempts to turn our beloved democracy into an authoritarian state.

"Tesla Inc. employs an odometer system that utilizes predictive algorithms, energy consumption metrics, and driver behavior multipliers that manipulate and misrepresent the actual mileage travelled by Tesla vehicles," reads the lawsuit. "In so doing, Defendants can, and do, accelerate the rate of depreciation of the value of Tesla vehicles and also the expiration of Tesla vehicle warranties to reduce or avoid responsibility for contractually required repairs as well as increase the purchase of its extended warranty policy."

It seems Tesla is detecting vehicles that may have problems, and artificially running their odometers faster so the warranty expires before they have to do any service

Just incredible grift

This past week, the Chinese learned

1) exactly where Trump's pain points are;

2) how much to squeeze them before he flinches;

and

3) how little America's partners and allies want to help this president.

Highly useful information.
