Idiocracy was a documentary.

Road trips. I’m just not going to fly for the next four years.

Heroin addict and steroid abuser wants the rest of us to to make as smart decisions about our health as he has.

Moving on… Friday night #vinyl

End of another week. Whiskey & #vinyl

You don’t run a country on P&L. We’re about to learn… for the next 20 years or so.

The glorification of selfishness has led us here. How did it get this out of hand?

youtube.com/watch?v=00AW... This is the fight. Watch to the end.

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

youtube.com/watch?v=-jGw... This is just… absurd.

I'm getting more enraged with each passing day...

Government is not a business. Stop trying to make it so. Idiots.

Spot on.

youtube.com/watch?v=kuYf... I am shocked. SHOCKED, I say!

What exactly is the statute of limitations on blaming Biden for everything?

This is what happens when you have juveniles running the fucking government. Trump administration wants to un-fire some nuclear safety workers but can’t figure out how to reach them www.nbcnews.com/politics/nat...

Why does a 38-year old U.S. Attorney in SDNY, who is also a die hard conservative, have more guts and integrity than the entirety of the GOP Senate Conference combined?! Shame on the shameless sycophants and enablers there, who can’t find the spine to stand up to common MAGA bullies.

Does anyone else feel like all these DOGE cuts are just a rope-a-dope? There will be outrage at a majority of the cuts but the Republican party will be there to sponsor bills that "help" their constituents. And of course DEMS will fall all over themselves to "help" and MAGA will look amazing.

What could go wrong? www.npr.org/2025/02/13/n...

WE NEED A CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION!!! When possible.

Stoli stock is BOOMING!

Today’s motto.

"I will bring down inflation on day one." 😂😂😂😂

As the military under Pete Hegseth rolls back recruiting for minority Americans remember that black women are the only reason the Army met its recruiting goals last year. Not enough white men qualify to even serve no matter volunteer. They'll learn when recruiting collapses and it ain't "wokeness."

I’m not standing for the national anthem anymore. This country is over.

uncrate.com/1989-ruf-ctr... Oh man… this would definitely be the sign that I won the lottery.

Time to decompress and save some sanity. #vinyl

Democratic politicians need to realize they don’t need corporate money. Do the shit you were elected for and you’ll see some energized voters.

I spoke at DePaul University this evening with a group of amazing, politically engaged students. The professor who invited me showed me this 1894 newspaper clipping about Italian immigrants eating cats and dogs. I had never seen it before. The more things change...

I saw the Kanye ad yesterday (it aired in the Philly market, where we were) but didn't click on the link. Today I found out it went to a website selling swastika T-shirts. This was a Superbowl ad. And it was to a website selling swastika T-shirts. I feel like I'm losing my mind.

Just DANDY!

The fact that you see how wrong this all is, means your faculties are intact, your mind is fully right, and your heart is working properly; you still have a soul doing what souls are supposed to do: keep you deeply human in profoundly inhumane times. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/dont-gasli...

@jenpsaki.msnbc.com: “Friday we learned that last year, Kash Patel was paid $25,000 by a Russian propaganda operation to attack the FBI… what could possibly go wrong?”
