The owner was the granddaughter of the guy who started the business. She talked up the high quality of the flags, pointing out the stitching and embroidery. She was stoked I’m young enough to know how to write an online review, and gave me a mini bottle of Fiji Water on my way out. 10/10 experience.

I got an American flag to bring to my local No Kings protest tomorrow. I wanted to buy it locally, and ended up finding a family owned flag retailer that’s been around 80+ years. I drove to their store which turned out to be run out of their house.

Thank you for speaking on Trump and Musk’s interpersonal drama rather than dismissing it as a distraction from the administration’s policy goals. The low character of these men is not irrelevant noise, it’s integral to who they are and what they aim to accomplish.

You’re one of the most clear eyed Democratic Senators about how dangerous this administration is, and among those meeting the moment. However I disagree with you on this point: the policy issues are important, but so are the malignant personalities behind them. You can and should talk about both.
