The things I love most in life are my family, music, basketball and mountain hikes. I love Senior Olympic basketball and I loathe Donald Trump. Please no DMs unless we know each other previously. I’m not interested in “how’s your day” pleasantries.
Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 81st day out of the last 93.
12 days of work in over 3 months.
With full pay and benefits.
The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.
It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.
Priorities.

Not enough votes in Congress to impeach/remove.
No will in the Cabinet to invoke the 25th.
For the sake of the country, we need to make him as irrelevant as possible.

Nothing says, "We are not serious people," like replacing accredited media with the mypillow guy. For fuck sake, it's just a whole ass cartoon now...

Chris Murphy: "There's a lot of history that has taken place in the East Wing & it was just destroyed without any conversation in the public, without any consent of Congress. It's absolutely illegal. That visual is powerful b/c you're watching destruction of the rule of law as those walls come down"

Last nights vinyl!
What a great album!
I missed it completely when it came out. Anita brought it with her on CD when we got together. This album was in a vinyl collection that was given to me by a neighbor nearly 30 years ago. Thanks to Chris for not picking up his vinyl 2 years after they divorced.

Aren’t You Glad - The Beach Boys
Really good, mostly unknown soulful Beach Boys song from the Wild Honey album. Very different direction from Good Vibrations and Heroes and Villains.

Great story on Chad Kassem, founder of Acoustic Sounds and Analogue Productions. Best product and shipping in the business.

It’s painfully clear. By refusing to swear in Adelita Grijalva, Speaker Johnson’s covering up Jeffrey Epstein’s global sex-trafficking ring.
Hey GOP: Bring back the House, cancel your health care cuts, reopen the government and release the files.

Because we love America and must take her back from the one who thinks he is king.
Journalistic independence is a must at universities. Not a surprising move from my conservative home state that I left 55 years ago without regret. I’ll still cheer for their football and basketball teams.

No. I will not vote to double premiums for 20 million.
Republicans must come to the table and negotiate an end to the shutdown.
