This is exactly what is needed in our constitutional republic right now.

Love is Love.

This is the tyranny of Trumpism.

My business partner Mark and I love sharing the positive impact of a culture of respect on employees and communities. We recently presented our content to senior leaders of law enforcement and correctional services agencies across the state of Maryland. Thank you for participating!

In great numbers, we turn the tide.

We cannot stand idly by and watch these want-to-be oligarchs destroy our constitutional republic. Resist. Retake. Restore.

There is an undeniable pattern in this one’s behavior.

My latest post is live on Careers in Government! In this article & video, I explain how leaders can make respect as important as results within their team. They must define exactly what they mean by "respect" using observable behaviors, then MODEL them.

Cory Booker!

Preach!

This is fantastic. Three squadrons of vetted Veterans for Democracy, each with a one-click subscription option for the whole list! Thank you, Capt Chris!

Maybe the Trump administration should just stop violating the law?

Thanks to @punkertonrecords.bsky.social for the graphic and the inspiration! #quashfacism

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Threads is not showing me the home/for you feed on the app or web. Bluesky is welcoming and just works. It’s my go-to social media platform.

Here’s another gem: a 2003 Gibson Adam Steffey F-5 Master Model mandolin. It’s number 48 of 50 made. Remarkable!

President Zelenskyy, you deserve respect and validation for the way you are leading your country in the midst of Russia’s aggression. I and millions of Americans are saddened and disgusted by the way Trump and Vance treated you today. We support you!

She is power personified!

For the US to side with Russia and North Korea to oppose a UN resolution condemning the illegal invasion of Ukraine defies all common sense and adds insult to the countless injuries suffered by the brave Ukrainian people. edition.cnn.com/2025/02/24/p...

Happy #GibSunday! Here's my 2023 Gibson Custom Shop Murphy Lab Limited Edition '59 Les Paul Standard with a Brazilian rosewood fretboard and Bigsby vibrato. It is one of 50 with the flamed maple "Tri-Burst" finish.

Thank you for sharing, team!

That's right: a leader's primary responsibility is NOT to drive results. It's to remove employee frustrations, which drives RESPECT, which drives results. #goodcomesfirst

Thank you, Dr. King. Justice, equality, and the soul of this nation is worth fighting for. #MLKDay

Justice is coming... eventually. ⚖️ #MartinLutherKingDay2025

TCF: First things first.

We can make this happen!

No other tube amp brings the sweet growl like a vintage 1959 Fender Bassman. 45 watts through four 10” original Jensen speakers makes joyous noise! #FenderBassman
