Can't help but feel we're living through an increasingly existential war between spectacle and substance with spectacle winning battle after battle after battle.

WARREN: Can POTUS legally tell the IRS to change someone's nonprofit status? BILLY LONG: I'm not able to answer WARREN: You can't read these words and tell me what those words say?! LONG: I can read the statute and I did WARREN: Then tell me what they mean!

Holding Israel accountable is not support for Hamas it’s support for humanity and the rule of law. Without it, we are not a civilization but a collection of beasts walking upright.

MAKE NOISE ON THIS ONE‼️ They didn’t just deport him—they sent him to CECOT in El Salvador. Agelviz came here legally through the refugee resettlement program—fully vetted. But when he landed in Houston, CBP snatched him over a tattoo: a clock and a rose. No charges. No record. Just a suspicion.

Ivana didn’t become a U.S. citizen until 1988—well after Don Jr. (1977), Ivanka (1981), and Eric (1984) were born. Melania wasn’t a citizen when Barron was born in 2006. So if we’re questioning birthright citizenship, maybe start with Trump’s own kids. But of course—rules are for the rest of us.

Remote control.

There's always a tweet.

Yes, I'm pissed about the jumbo jet too. But this is actually the most important story today.

When I was in high school in Japan, I saw THE MOTOWN REVUE on base w/ The 4 Tops, Martha & the Vandellas & "Little" Stevie Wonder. To this day, one of greatest live shows I've ever seen & w/ the military supplementing the cost, easily the best $1.50 I've ever spent. For Stevie: 🎂(also: many 🙏's!)
