Today’s "The Daily" features Astead Herndon circling back with pro-Trump autoworkers in Michigan to get their take on tariffs and their feelings about Trump overall. They're still all-in for Trump. One said even if she loses her job, she won't blame Trump because "at least he's doing something." 😩

Not for nothing but everyone realizes that these teenagers and 20 somethings who have complete access to the Treasury payment source code are now #1 espionage recruitment targets for Russia and China, right?

The logic of the coup that is going on now. And how to resist it. snyder.substack.com/p/the-logic-...

This is so spot-on.🎯

After his successful consolidation of power, the Leader prepares for show trials of those who resisted his first failed putsch.

Of all these jazz greats, only Sonny Rollins is still around!

If you haven't listened to this week's episode of "This American Life," I strongly recommend you do. I've been listening to the show for over twenty years and this is one of the best episodes I've ever heard. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

Happy belated birthday to Jimi Hendrix. (I drew this portrait of him in college for a friend's birthday.) Fun fact: my dad was the general contractor for Electric Lady Studios in the late '60s and met Hendrix. (though being mostly a jazz and folk fan at the time, he wasn't familiar with his music)

Don’t sweat the small stuff. Eventually, the sun will vaporize the earth while in its red giant phase so whatevs.

This. It’s extortion.

To my four followers – lol. I finally left the bad place after 12 years. Deactivated. So happy to be in this place that is nontoxic and not controlled by a supervillain.

The idea that Bluesky is insular and X is a place for diverse views is a fallacy. X is based on an algorithm rigged to push the views of Musk and others on the far right. Bluesky is open. You can make it whatever you want it to be.
