WHO DID THIS?!?!

It has been incredibly moving to welcome Kinks fans from around the world to SUNNY AFTERNOON, including Doug Hinman, Marianne Spellman, and Jim Napoli, featured in this @washingtonpost.com piece. God save The Kinks! www.washingtonpost.com/entertainmen...

Israeli Minister for National Security Itamar Ben Gvir has landed in the U.S. We join the chorus of Jewish voices who reject everything he stands for. We will join @unxeptable.bsky.social & other Israeli & US Jewish groups in protesting his visit this Thursday at 12:30pm in NYC (location TBA).

How hard am I pushing preorders for my debut novel? Six months out and I’ve got Chicago’s most famous hot dog shack shilling for me. us.macmillan.com/books/978125...

Very very important read. A startup backed by the paypal mafia and the Kushner is set to get a contract to privatize the entire internal govt credit card system. No compete sweetheart deal. Justified by bogus claims abt fraud. Pure corruption. www.propublica.org/article/trum...

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

A must read from Mo Husseini, my brother, my friend. Thank you, Mo. 💜 “We must build a new ethic — an ethic that elevates empathy above vengeance, refuses to call cruelty strength, and rejects supremacy, whether it drapes itself in a flag or a scripture.” mo-husseini.medium.com/an-open-lett...?

This day in 2017. A wonderful night. Dylan secretly got his Nobel Prize medal the afternoon before the show, and a few hours later sang this one. Bob Dylan - Standing in the Doorway (Sweden 2017) youtu.be/z2feOXhnqFQ?...

Long term democracy can only be saved if they overturn Citizens United as well as Buckley v. Valeo Or They tax billionaires out of existence. It can’t survive if a single donor can throw $1/4 billion and promise voters millions for their votes.

It’s worth stating this simply: For literally anyone in the US Govt from 1945 to 2025, Signalgate would require an instant resignation—and a criminal investigation. It would be a matter of personal *honor* to resign. The fact Mike Waltz & Pete Hegseth are choosing to fight it out is a terrible omen.

Wow. Rep. Chuck Edwards is getting torn apart at a town hall in Asheville, NC. “I’m a veteran & you don’t give a fuck about me. You don’t get to do this to us!” Edwards orders veteran to be thrown out. We’re approaching a tipping point now. Anger across the country is going to boil over soon.

I've been hosting New Music Friday every week for a couple months now, and this is our best top-to-bottom lineup yet. If you haven't heard Annie DiRusso, the new Jason Isbell record, SASAMI, Divorce, or ASTROPICAL, you're in for such a treat. (Plus, Celia Gregory of WNXP is a phenomenal co-host!)

Well we learned something from this, our 572nd rocket explosion, said SpaceX spokesperson Farty McCrablice, it's when you have a floundering company run by a drugged-out shithead with virtually no oversight, things tend to explode.

The FAA approved another launch before the last crash investigation was completed — and it ended in another disaster. Why is SpaceX getting a free pass from DOGE cuts? 🤔

Everybody's upset abt this or that thing Dems did or didn't do at the faux-SOTU. Poor messaging, poor this, bad that. Very few of those things matter much or will be things we'll remember in a couple months. What they do on the CR really does matter. A LOT. That shld be 10x more focus anything else.

This is NOT what I had in mind when I voted for the man who pretended to work at McDonald's for a day and then drove around in a dump truck. I thought he would continue doing those things, thereby providing valuable services in my community

Just an obvious point that anyone with the inside word on when these these total reversals are going to be announced is in a position to make almost limitless amounts of money. Don't forget that given the kind of people who make up this administration.

Hulu ruining the Oscars is really poetic coming after Sean Baker’s speech about streaming services killing the movies

If you’re a Dem elected and you’re not mentioning the massive cuts to cancer cure and social security funding in every public appearance you’re just not doing your job.

Israeli forces fatally shot two Palestinian children in the back today in the occupied West Bank. Soldiers fired on both children from inside armored military vehicles. Ayman Al-Hemouni, 12, in Hebron and Rimas Ammouri, 13, in Jenin. www.dci-palestine.org/israeli_forc...

A defining policy battle is about to come to a head in this country. The Republican budget will force everyone - especially Congress and the White House - to make plain whether they are prepared to harm the rest of us in order to fund tax cuts for the wealthiest.
