The OG mayor of Lawrence, Kansas. Abolitionist, Colonel, Jayhawk, Statesman, beard aficionado, dead since 1891. No love for bushwhackers. #LFK

Good morning, Citizens! If sometimes the little voice in your head says you "can't" or you're "not good enough," that's just your internal Bushwhacker talking. Tell him to fuck off.

Good morning, Citizens! May your Monday be merciful and free of Bushwhackery. Okay given current affairs, "free of Bushwhackery" might be a stretch, but a dead mayor can dream, can't he?

Good morning, Citizens! SPOILER ALERT: There appears to be some sort of pop-up auto show this morning behind Royal Crest Lanes near Ninth and Iowa. You can roll up and look at a variety of horseless buggies. #LFK

Booooo. #LFK

Good morning, Citizens! Another beautiful spring day on tap for Lawrence, Kansas and its surrounding suburbs, Topeka and Kansas City.

NEW - For Au Marché and Brits in downtown Lawrence, tariffs are creating uncertainty but not causing them to raise prices, for now To look at the local impact of tariffs, I spent time at the side-by-side shops, which sell all manner of European & UK goods www.kansascity.com/news/politic...

The resting place for President Eisenhower. Above his grave is this quote "Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed." #Kansas #LFK #Photography

Friday kicks off an amazing spring weekend in #LFK: the library booksale, Danny Pound and CS Luxum with a Replay matinee, Alien Hellbop in a Replay late show. Saturday—the farmers market opens (get there early, y'all). Sunday—Arthur Dodge with a Replay matinee.

Whomever decided to close the right turn lane from westbound 19th to northbound Iowa for no discernable reason in that unholy construction mess is a grade AAA Bushwhacker. #LFK

Good morning, Citizens! It's going to be a beautiful day and I encourage you to stand in the sunshine for at least a few minutes before it's tariffed.

There is no plan. There is no strategy. There's no chess of any dimensions. He's just a world class dumb-dumb with emotional problems and monumental Daddy issues.

Virginia: Can we get our racist treason hankie back? Minnesota: LOL, no. *Repeat Through the Centuries*

happy confederate surrender day to all

Come see me in person at 4pm TODAY in this building. Tell 'em Bob Dole sent you.

Just a periodic reminder that Republicans in Congress could stop this at any time.

Good morning, Citizens! Steel yourselves, there's much Bushwhackery afoot.

Good morning, Citizens! You're looking stunning and righteous this morning!

Can we admit he's just a rich, stupid, orange psycho yet? Or are there norms about such statements around which I must twist my knickers?

Hundreds of Lawrence community members gathered at Ninth and Massachusetts today as part of a nationwide movement directing Trump and Musk to take their "hands off" many facets of Americans' lives. lawrenceks.news/4cuPNFF

Given the market mayhem, I can't help but wonder whether Harlan Crowe is going to be able to afford any vacations for Clarence Thomas this year. 😢

Good morning, Citizens! Chilly start with high probability of sunny skies and crashing markets.

Mine eyes have seen the Flory! #kubball

Good morning, Citizens! It's a beautiful day and Duke lost, which makes it an extra beautiful day.

Good morning, Citizens! It's a great day to be a hype man for a democratic system of government.

One thing that's keeping my indomitable Jayhawker spirit afloat today is the thought of all those dumb billionaires that bent the knee thinking they'd get to influence the mad king. Ha ha, morons!

Mary Steenburgen's performance as Fox News is a tour-de-force.

I feel obliged to reiterate that Congress could stop this *any time* a sufficient number of Republicans decided to manifest spines.

Good morning, Citizens! We need the rain, but it's going to be a gloomy day. At least we haven't tariffed the clouds. Yet. 🌧️

My wife was able to get through to #Kansas senator Jerry Moran's office to ask about tariffs. They told her that he is trying to get relief for farmers, but everyone else can go fuck themselves. That's what he thinks of us.

2024: A Play in One Act Ms. Harris: Donald Trump will do terrible things. Mr. Trump: Yes, I will do terrible things. Project 2025 Goons: Here's the written plan for Trump's Terrible Things™. New York Times: Opinions diverge on the likelihood of Trump doing terrible things.

Good morning, Citizens! You're doing a splendid job of it, despite the avalanche of Bushwhacker bullshit lately. Shine on, you Jayhawkery diamonds! ✨💎

Did he put any tariffs on Russia? I'm guessing not. Does Russia have anything besides amusing furry hats that I want to buy? I'm guessing not.

It was also tremendously unpopular! Hence two term Governor Laura Kelly.

What’s everyone gonna do this weekend that they’ll never be able to afford to do again

Hey, stuff in my house? You're not allowed to break for a while.

Good morning, Citizens! How about those overnight thunderboomers, eh? April Atmospherics in Kansas are so dramatic. ⛈️ ⚡

Every time an evil billionaire loses, an angel gets its wings.

Love and forgiveness are good! But I myself am enjoying Strom Thurmond getting another red hot poker in hell. Different strokes for different folks. #celebratediversity #corybooker

I would also like to make John Lewis proud.
