I’m going to take the opportunity to leverage the Jackson station image to post our son’s pandemic-era song, Jackson

The "meritocracy" exposed: Internal emails reveal how the Trump administration hires legal interns β€œYou MUST be aligned politically with President Trump… GPA is not a strong factor.”

The same people who screamed about the (non-existent) Deep State are, in fact, trying to creating a Deep State.

Good morning, BlueSky fam. Remember to take care of yourself. Turn off the news/ social media when you need to, do something nice for you, hug your loved ones, know that it’s the small things that add up to the big things, that the pendulum always swings, and one day this admin will be gone

She survived demolition, a mysterious disappearance, and decades in a suburban forest preserve. A pigeon on her head? No problem

If China is willing to take Taiwan by force, now is their opportunity.

But truth is they care far far more about international opinion than the Trump regime does. Face it, we are the colonialists

They literally spent the past 4-plus years blasting Biden over the withdrawal from Afghanistan and how "rushed" it was.

Republicans spent 17 months on Benghazi because 4 Americans were killed.

It’s been 3 days and Trump’s illegal Iran attack has already gotten 6 American soldiers killed. He promises more will die soon. And Republicans don’t care.

Trump Has No Plan for the Iranian People The mere act of bombing Iran will not by itself create a stable regime.

The fate of the Iranian people has never been of great concern to American administrations, and this one is no exception
