I love this podcast. Where else do I encounter a thoughtful and on point discussion of Lady Chatterleyโ€™s Lover, Ferris Bueller, AND tariffs!

Remember when calling people โ€œdeplorablesโ€ was outrageous and over-the-top?

Thatโ€™s fair. Wait until they go to The Strand flagship in Manhattan; weโ€™d never hear from them again.

Trump just reclassified drug cartels as โ€œunlawful combatantsโ€ and labeled U.S. operations in the Caribbean a โ€œnon-international armed conflict.โ€ Thatโ€™s the Russian playbook and how โ€œleadersโ€expand power. They shift crime into the category of war, then rule without Congress.

Radical Christianity should look more like this and a heck of a lot less like Kirk, FOTUS, and whatever that mess was that Hegseth spewed yesterday.

Compassion for all who are suffering as a result of the shooterโ€™s actions.

While the senile old man rides in carriages around castles, builds his ballroom, puts gold on everything, plans parades, attends a variety of sporting events, threatens people, and reads the scripts put in front of him, this psychopath is the one actually running the country.

BOLDUAN: When I was asking you about Comey, you've twice now brought up the Epstein files and Tom Homan. Why?

Only an administration intent on committing war crimes in the present and future would stoop to calling Wounded Knee a "battle" rather than what it truly was: a massacre of over 250 Lakotas, mainly women, children, and the elderly. 1/

They're about to shut down the government to protect the Epstein Files from disclosure. Whatever is in the files must be so unhinged as to be beyond imagination.

Because this administration thinks everyone believes the rules only matter when it helps โ€œyour sideโ€ (like they do), they are counting on Comeyโ€™s unpopularity to normalize this.

Donโ€™t let it. Whatever you think of him or his actions in the past, etc. this indictment is dangerous and an outrage.

If you think that adults taking Tylenol hurt kids, just wait until you read what the adults in the Epstein Files were doing to them.

The only appropriate response is this reminder:
ALL of this could stop if Congressional Republicans cared more about the Constitution than they do about Project 2025.

There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. Itโ€™s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Letโ€™s get a grip on whatโ€™s happening here.

This will be called "evidence of consciousness of guilt" in subsequent criminal trials.

Boycott everything Disney/ABC and reallocate funds to independent media and alternative amusements. Support local public radio and subscribe to PBS passport. If you *must* go to FL, drive this trail, stay in Black-owned lodging & eat @ Black-owned restaurants www.visitflorida.com/travel-ideas...

Iโ€™m a Congressional Candidate. I Was Assaulted by ICE. An interview with Kat Abughazaleh, a 26-year-old Democratic House candidate in Illinois, who was violently thrown to the ground twice at a peaceful protest in Illinois on Friday morning.

As I told @newrepublic.com, "Once last week, twice today, ICE has picked me up and thrown me on the ground. Honestly, it doesnโ€™t compare to what our neighbors who are trapped inside the Broadview processing facility are going through. Theyโ€™re committing crimes against humanity there."

This Fourth Turning is a doozy BUT the desperation & desperate cruelty of the authoritarians is also evidence that they know they are losing the war of hearts & minds. So they are destroying what they can, as abusers do.

I went to the Contact Us link and got this message. Whatโ€™s the matter Hulu? Are you and Disney+ getting overwhelmed by the volume of cancellations & fury ever since you decided to toe the #Project2025 line?

Weird.

And buh-bye!
