My Father’s Flag and the Idea of America Over decades, across continents, and through harrowing experiences, my family held on to this bit of cloth as a reminder of everything they believed in—and were running toward.

Mike could not name one. I’d guess doing nothing was less harmful and thus a benefit. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Well … stupidity (collectively) is how we got here. The balance may not be in our favor.

When you elect a felon … carry on in “If You Give a Mouse a Cookie” fashion.

Seems trite. But it is true. It’s also tribal IMO to a large extent.

Hegseth has no coverage either. And he’s the putative leader. 🤔

Everything was much better under Biden. He may have been old, bu he knew what he was doing. Now, we have an old guy who acts all confident, but doesn't actually have a clue...

Alec Guinness was the best in that series.

Took the corrupt, felon, rapist, and pedo (general term not specific defined potion) quite some time to figure it out. You think a stable genius less time. But he’s making it up on the grift for sure.

Grifters gonna grift. But hey, how about stopping him from criming?

Wow everyone must be living at a higher level than before Trump because, as he has repeatedly told us, there is no inflation now and tariffs are the greatest thing since the late 1800s.

You can run JD through the rigor and discipline of the US military, you can send him to two two prestigious universities, including extensive legal training, you can expose him to complex business transactions, but you cannot wash out the pure ignorance this dude displays regularly.

Big mistake IMO. Cross reference this bsky.app/profile/hist...

This is one of the reasons truth in history is so very important - to make a better more informed future. Americans need to take this same attitude.

He creeps me out. 🤨

Gorgeous pen. 🫡

Godspeed!

Donald … uh, “D” … would for certain know the f the card game and would have dealt a few hands and played n many different games. Unavoidable. Plus “D” is highly likely to like card games almost as much as the host.

I Work For an Evil Company, but Outside Work, I’m Actually a Really Good Person I love my job. I make a great salary, there’s a clear path to promotion, and a never-ending supply of cold brew in the office. And even though my j...

No confusion they lie and they are incompetent. And we’re fucked.

Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance - got me thinking early in my career about how to do good work. I achieved it on some days but kept up the pursuit for closing in on 50 years.
