Continuing the kids’ baseball film education this weekend with Field of Dreams. Haven’t seen it in ages and forgot there’s a whole scene at a school board meeting about banning books, with the great line “wanna step outside you Nazi cow?!” Good reminder that we’ve been fighting this shit for ages.

@jeanguerre.bsky.social wrote a whole book on this monster. I don’t know how she had the mental fortitude to do it. bookshop.org/p/books/hate...

Get on your running shoes and head to your bank

Who knew Coffeemate had such a dark sense of humor?

“We need to get better at treating this like a business,” Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons said, explaining he wants to see a deportation process “like (Amazon) Prime, but with human beings.”

Keep trying if you can’t get through

Trump take home @mtsw.bsky.social

“The U.S. has declared war on solving problems” sums this all up so perfectly

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave. Tell them: 1. Vote NO on Cloture AND 2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill. Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it. TODAY is the showdown. 🤳🏽: (202) 224-3121

Americans are suffering under the weight of sky-high housing prices. Today, I’m re-introducing my bill with @warnock.senate.gov and @cleaver.house.gov to build 3 million new homes, bring down rents by 10%, and cut red tape that drives up costs. Congress must act.

Musk’s bullet points recently: 1. Lost or jeopardized major contracts for satellite internet company 2. Space company blew up another rocket 3. Crashed market value of car company 4. Communication platform company hacked multiple times 5. Welcomed yet another baby

There is so much rage to be had right now and to add to it all is the rage that anyone has to answer any questions from a person with that haircut. A bazillion kudos to Mayor Michelle Wu for maintaining composure and making him somehow look more absurd than he already does.

If anyone was serious about cutting waste in budgets they wouldn’t put a rich person in charge, they’d put the abuelita at the dollar store getting her week’s worth of groceries for $20 in charge

I really hope the guy from the last Ukrainian rally in Balboa Park is there with his perfect fundraising chant, “if you think that Putin sucks, give Ukraine a couple bucks!” Take all my money

In San Diego, the Grossmount Union school board voted to fire librarians & teachers even though they have four-and-a-half times the state’s required reserve. The motive? Newly elected members are right wing activists that believe Christian nationalist conspiracies. The public was outraged.

Women’s sports Wednesday

If you’re a San Diegan in Scott Peters’ district, call him now and tell him not to vote on any Republican budget bill he’s a centrist and a coward and I don’t trust him to do the right thing 202-225-0508

This. Exactly this.

The USPS grab is about lots of things. Top among them is voting. People need to prepare now for future elections to be as burdensome as they can get away with making them.

The Department of Education is critical to ensuring every student has access to an education that will help them reach their full potential. Dismantling it means defunding programs that feed, educate, and protect our most vulnerable and underserved students. www.latimes.com/california/s...

Nice to see a local rep stand up and make some noise. Thank you @sarajacobs.house.gov

"appalled" but a Politico reporter tweeted 15 minutes ago that Democrats on the House Oversight Committee just moved to subpoena Elon Musk and the motion failed 19-20, with Ro Khanna "notably abstaining from the vote" @khanna.house.gov you ain't shit x.com/DaniellaMica...

We’re already facing a severe housing shortage and affordability crisis – and now, President Trump’s tariffs will make it worse. It will worsen supply chain issues and raise the costs of building materials like lumber and steel from Canada – increasing YOUR housing prices.

What if elected Dems treated the Treasury like the crime scene it is?
