#goodnightandgoodluck I was crying at the end too. I wish people knew Fred Friendly help to found PBS. He saw what was coming. Thanks @cnn.com and all the cast for making it widely available. And Connie Chung and Marvin Kalb bringing reality checks. Bill Moyers would have been a solid addition too.

Good Christ. Trump seemed to think the chancellor of Germany considered the end of WWII a sad day somehow. Merz had to explain, no, America liberated us from the Nazis, dipshit. That was a good thing, you absolute fucking moron. I paraphrase only slightly.

Joe Biden's storied service to the country he loves, COVERS him in glory. Trump attacks Biden constantly because he knows that he could never measure up to Joe. And so instead of trying to do better, he wants to try to pull Biden down, and soil him in the eyes of Americans. That will never happen.

Unbelievable! Today, San Diego witnessed a government-sanctioned kidnapping. ICE stormed Buona Forchetta in military gear ripping workers away, then unleashing tear gas and smoke on the terrified community. Full on police state, fascism now used on American citizens. Stay aware. #OnYourSide

Really confusing day for anyone who worked in a restaurant to realize that when we were told an item on the menu had been "86'ed" that meant the kitchen staff had assassinated it in cold blood.

Not a single international cargo ship at the Port of Seattle. The port is dead. The last ship from China will dock at a West coast port on the 29th, and the last Chinese ship will dock on the East coast around May 10th. After that, there will be no more shipments arriving from China. We’re screwed.
