IL Gov. Pritzker is one of the great leaders of our time. You can watch his full IL budget address here. If you forward to the 26 minute mark, you can watch as he shifts to a dire warning about the direction our country is taking, but also words of hope. We should all take heed.

Joking aside, I would almost move to California for this. Or maybe Oregon could become a colony or protectorate?

BREAKING: France, Germany, Poland, Italy, Spain & UK sign a joint statement vowing to protect Ukraine’s sovereignty & demanding a role in the peace talks. This is leadership. It’s also unprecedented. A western alliance is having to form against a new, twin & united threat: Trump & Putin.

This makes 1938 appeasement look quaint. Where are all those Republicans against any sort of appeasement now? They are certainly not patriots. They’re too busy sucking on the teat of Dear Leader.

Turns out I can’t rant about oligarchical kleptocracy all day, so I’m sharing a personal story. It might ring true for my fellow Portlanders of a certain era, especially you NASL Timbers fans (IYKYK).

I feel like Trump is max 6 weeks away from saying we're gonna water the crops with Gatorade because it's got electrolytes and that's what plants crave.

It’s great to see that @bookshop-org.bsky.social offers ebooks. And now they’re offering the same price deals as at other retailers. The Losing Role is only $2.99 on Bookshop for a limited time. Avoid Amazon — and support your local bookstore: bookshop.org/p/books/the-... #BookSky

Imagine you were the richest man in the world. You could have anything you wanted, go anywhere you wished, do whatever took you fancy. How would you spend your weekend? Depriving the poorest people in the world of food and healthcare and boasting about it?

This is the way. 160k peaceful protesters out on the streets of Berlin alone today to resist making deals with fascists. Germans know better.

Nearly 250,000 people in Berlin showed up to protest fascism and the Musk backed AfD party.

No one's blaming Democrats for causing this crisis, but yes, many of them are failing to meet this moment. One Democratic senator could bring the chamber to a halt. House Dems can go to fed agencies being gutted by Musk with cameras in tow. Governors can push back. State AGs can bring lawsuits.

Feel deep in my bones that the backlash to all of this is going to be enormous. Not sure how it will manifest and when it will explode into view, but confident it’s coming.

It’s so much easier to destroy than to actually govern. The Narcissistic Grievance Monger and his sick enablers want all the power and money but none of the responsibility or consequences. A long con like that will never succeed. It’s been quite a week. Take care of one another.
