I’ve never been into Taylor Swift, but I’m really excited for her new album, “Trump is in the Epstein Files”

Goodnight to most, from all at Skinnerville, where Secretary Baked Potato is exercising his power to levy a nap as granted in Article 2 of MeanCat’s Constitution.

Good morning and welcome to Tuna Tuesday

Smiling at strangers could lighten up their day.

A lot of people just need somebody to be kind to them today

Be that somebody

No, JD, belonging in America does not depend on how many generations of your family have lived here. The values of this country matter - deeply - to who we are and what it means to be American.

Clearly this is not about making DC, or any of us, safer.

The most important thing to know about Trump’s manufactured crisis in DC is that his administration is still covering up what’s in the Epstein files.

At some point we’re going to need to figure out why millions of Americans readily believe every objectively untrue word that comes out of Donald Trump’s mouth. Saying that they’re brainwashed or in a cult isn’t the answer.

Whole lotta fact-free judgments on crime in DC or NYC or Chicago by people that have never even been to, let alone lived in, DC or NYC or Chicago. Thus as it always was, the most wrong are the most loud

Below are the 30 U.S. cities with at least 100,000 residents that had the highest number of crimes against people, per 100,000, according to the latest FBI data report.

Goodness, Washington, D.C., forgot to be included!

JD Vance & Jim Jordon's Ohio makes a stellar showing. Heck of a job on crime!

🤷 I drove NY Ave NE and the U St Corridor home from work and saw absolutely nothing different. (I’ve seen the video of U St NW from last night).

I realized that as I looked more closely at your feed which is great, by the way. I re-skeeted my hero Rep. Jamie Raskin. He’s my best friend’s representative. I’m a native Washingtonian and live in the city. By the way, today there was no indication of any change. LOL
