Hello. I've written a book called The Right of the People. It's about democracy and why we should have one in America. Out August 12th. You may pre-order it now. This is the first of many reminders. Thank you. Bookshop: shorturl.at/ykg4a Amazon: shorturl.at/0d7A3 Barnes & Noble: shorturl.at/EFA9I

With the return of Reacher I’d like to gently remind some of my liberal friends that there are multiple books in the Reacher series where the entire premise is “local cops corrupt, Feds are lazy and stereotyping”. It’s okay to let people like stuff without the lecture.

I don’t think anyone has this in the pool yet so let me place my marker: Trump will try to pressure Washington’s NFL team to change their name back

Get arrested preventing DOGE goons from entering public buildings, get arrested going into public buildings to find out what DOGE goons are doing, get arrested on the floor during confirmation votes to protest the rubber stamping of unqualified candidates
