So what does the Pussy-Grabber-in-Chief do when he doesn't like the latest set of labor statistics? He fires the woman who compiled them. Kill the messenger. Kill The Corporation for Public Broadcasting. Kill all forms of INFORMATION. Welcome to the new, Disunited States.

Some silence on behalf of the remarkable late Tom Lehrer, mathematician and troubadour of a certain generation. It is no mean feat to write pastiche music and lyrics (Sondheim is certainly a rival), but Lehrer's songs and the scathing wit that characterize them should last at least as long as I do.

I find it impossible to understand, let alone condone much less justify Israel’s actions in Gaza. Nothing more surely suggests how topsy-turvy our world has become.

"The villainy you teach me I shall execute, and it shall go hard by i will better the instruction." Shakespeare had it right. Alas.

All the dictator cliches: muzzle the press, control the airwaves (add the internet), ban speech, hound academics and intellectuals, deny the vote and reward the oligarchs.

Except the internet thing,, there's not an original sin among them. Only a new generation of sinners with the same old shit .

Reign of terror. The new gestapo. Amazing there’s always people willing to do this.

Let’s hear it for the Supine Court, otherwise known as that singing quintet, The Enablers, determined to consign their credibility and authority to oblivion.

So now anyone can throw on a mask, say they’re ICE and grab all your shit.

Next Trump stop: prevent folks from voting.

Who said, It can’t happen here..??

The Supreme Court collapsing like an accordion; how weird that in a country founded on checks and balances, one branch should so meekly surrender its authority to another.

It’s depressing that politicians always repeat the same mistakes. Starting wars is easy, ending them is hard. Believing in your own Infallibility and PR is usually fatal. Bad for an individual; fatal for a nation.

Is there any doubt left in anyone's mind that the Pussy-Grabber-in-Chief is totally nuts? Even his own followers? As we wait for what pops into his head every time he rolls out of bed? Good luck, World...

His first term, we (and he), was lucky; no nuke crises for him to bungle. This time it’s way different: the kid is playing with matches… and we’re all in the room.

Great turnout across the country today but we’re not done.

Change doesn’t happen until people take to the streets. In large numbers. Daily.

Those of us who marched 1968 know what it took to get us the fuck out of Vietnam.

Going to the no kings protest tomorrow at 11.

Seems like Vietnam/1968 all over again.

Who’s in?
