Getting a refresher on fascism. This read through was even more prescient than the first time I read it in the time of George W. Bush. "Our masters have not heard the people's voice for generations and it is much, much louder than they care to remember."

This is on the website Trump directed people to RSVP for the 250th Army celebration/his birthday+ego parade. I'm sure the placement is intentional.

I walked along Keavy Road, one the hardest hit neighborhoods in Laurel County and captured this video. Seeing the widespread damage left behind literally in front of me was heartbreaking to say the least. 18 Kentuckians (so far) have died in Friday’s storm. #kywx #tornado #londonky

It's disheartening to see how misinfo and misleading headlines proliferate here too. I'm seeing a "story" circulating saying DOGE cuts caused deaths in Kentucky from the tornadoes. I hate DOGE as much as the next person, but I see no evidence to back this up. From LPM: www.lpm.org/news/2025-05...

Working lots of things at the moment, but I'll say this: Several experts I've spoken to see the elevation of Pope Leo XIV — the first U.S. pope — as a de facto rebuke of Trump or, perhaps more accurately, of the broader global political trends he represents. More in a bit.

I highly recommend the works of historian Ron Eller to learn about the long history of economic exploitation in Kentucky. The governor may be correct on the legal part of this, but it just sucks to see Kentuckians get screwed out of an industry long promised to be the state's future.
