Fasten your seatbelts. It’s going to be a bumpy ride.

Dozens of people gathered in the parking entrance of the Broadview Detention Center Facility.

A woman holds a sign reading “IMMIGRANTS NOW / CITIZENS NEXT” but “NEXT” is crossed out and edited with red marker to say “Also Now!”

At least 70 people have already showed up to protest against ICE at the Broadview Detention Facility.

This is what showing up for your community looks like. Stand for your neighbors. Abolish ICE.

Why Counting Jobs Is Really, Really Hard | National Review The reasons for revisions in jobs numbers are incredibly boring and technical and have nothing to do with politics or ideology.

"So, no, the BLS is not incompetent, and it does not have an easy job at all. The reasons for revisions are incredibly boring and technical and have nothing to do with politics or ideology. Or at least they didn’t, until the president fired the BLS commish because he didn’t like the jobs numbers."

We did struggle in our 20s but we had the real hope that we would be able to get ahead and that hope was fulfilled for the vast majority of us. Today’s young are starting out so deep in debt, prices are so high, and good jobs are so scarce, they’re starting out much farther behind that we did.

The awakening is going to be brutal just like this administration.

Just saw a woman on TikTok who voted for Trump not understanding why her geriatric father is being told he cannot stay in his assisted living facility bc he’s on Medicaid. “He has nowhere to go. Why are they doing this. Don’t they want more patients?”

Oh honey, not if they can’t pay for their bed.

Let’s go!

He destroyed the rose garden. What is he talking about? 😡

My favorite Dostoyevsky is The Brothers Karamazov, particularly the section of The Grand Inquisitor.

That’s what they’re gearing up to do, I fear.

This week’s minestrone is mostly local and stars red cabbage, summer squash, a homemade chicken stock and smoked sliced jowl from Waltz Family Farm in Smithsburg, julienned and blanched first. Next: top with water, add salt and pepper, cover and simmer for 2+ hours. #BlueskySupperClub

The Week Ahead Sunday August 3, 2025

This week marks the 60th anniversary of the Voting Rights Act, but there’s not a lot to celebrate. There is, however, a positive action that you can take, right now, to help.

I cannot listen to his ignorant views on how tariffs are going to reduce prices here. He just said that some items in Europe cost 1/10 of what they cost here and he says that his tariffs will make the prices more even.

Trump’s narcissistic self, and his fragile ego, have to be in your face everyday or he feels empty and worthless. Deep complete narcissism. His brokenness and unresolved issues with his daddy creates all this insanity. Hurt people hurt people. Just a thought
