Weaklings in Congress forfeiting their authority make up a big part of the journey that got the U.S. here, to be honest.

Hello? Congress? "Coups are illegal in the U.S. A coup involves the overthrow of a government, typically by force or coercion, and is in direct violation of U.S. law and the Constitution. Participants in a coup could face serious criminal charges, including treason, conspiracy, and sedition."

Did anyone elect Elon Musk?   Has Congress confirmed him for an actual position?   No? Then why was he given sweeping, unfettered access to the U.S. Treasury payment systems? apnews.com/article/dona...

Since tariffs are a tax on U.S. importers, why do we permit the President to impose them unilaterally without authorization from Congress? Asking for a nation.

NEVER FORGET

There is a reason @marcuskwame.bsky.social @davidfwalker.bsky.social “Big Jim and the White Boy” was in countless must read lists at the end of 2024. Here’s my review saying why it’s a must read! ijoca.blogspot.com/2025/01/book...

I've said it before, yeah. I'll use a visual example (they're generally easier to understand) Take a film like The Exorcist. Half of it is spent establishing the characters before the exorcism takes place. Whether you find it scary or not during the first half doesn't make it less of a horror film

Holy cow. Just woke up to this view from mid-Wilshire looking downtown

We live east of Los Angeles County, and thus far we have been clear of any fires or evacuation zones. But the winds last night were heavy enough to shake my front doors. We have another day of wind. Please evacuate if you are told to. And download the Watch Duty app for updates. xoxo

I also wrote about Steven Moffat’s latest return to #DoctorWho for @secondwindgroup.com, “Joy to the World”, and about how Moffat’s tropes feel more timely than ever. It’s so refreshing to have a “Doctor Who” writer who knows the systems ARE the problem. READ: www.patreon.com/posts/column...

Made the mistake of going to my office and started pulling out movies! lol

Happy New Year!!
