View From My Window Was nice to see a shiny when I opened the curtains. Clear on Friday at 5:36am. Got up near 90F. Same this Saturday. ? Maybe 95F on Sunday. Getting Fire Weather Alerts. A splot of Exceptional Drought centered on San Antonio. But the grass here is green somehow, some wildflowers.

I've always wanted a car with a roof that flies off for no reason, but doors that don't come off while you're burning alive inside it. My dreams have come true.

@booker.senate.gov: "Are we a nation that is going to tolerate this, or a nation that's going to stand up? As the great Frederick Douglass said, 'the limits of tyrants are prescribed by the people that they seek to oppress.' How much will we endure before we say enough is enough?"

Did you know? The word “trumpery” appeared in the 15th century with the meanings “deceit” or “fraud”. 100 years later, it was being applied to objects of little or no value. Then in the 1900’s, it came to mean “showy but worthless”. — Today, it is equated with “fascist shit”.

"Apparently"? You should absolutely go arrest those very real 25,000 people right now. You have their addresses. Go! In fact, if you don't find every one of these absolutely real fraudsters and convict them all in court, then that's clearly a sign of your utter failure in office.

The manure is about to hit the fan. Capital Economics estimated on Wednesday that shipments from China to the U.S. could drop by >50%. So we can just make this stuff in America, right? Not only do we not make this stuff in America. We don't make the machines that make this stuff in America #EconSky

"historic gain!!" When you drop 4000 and come back up 2000. Note that the "pause" is only for the bananas numbers that were wonky to begin with. Still 10% everywhere. China 143%, and they replied, 143%. 25% steel & cars, etc.

I’m not reposting anything with RFK Jr’s face on it out of respect for xour eyes but “autism epidemic” is like saying “freckles epidemic” or “cleft chin epidemic” it’s not a disease it’s just a way some people are and the thing we need to fix is a hostile societal framework.

I was a social security recipient from the age of 12 through 18. That’s not some weird thing or corruption. It’s called survivors’ benefits. You don’t have to know this. You’re blessed if you don’t. But if you’re going to speak publicly abt the program you need to know this.
