If we’re so damn worried about the deficit, maybe—and hear me out—we stop flying the FBI Director on Air Force One just to catch a hockey game. You wanna cut waste? Start with the joyrides on the taxpayer dime.

RFK Jr spent years convincing parents that vaccines cause autism. Now as HHS Secretary, he claims he's always supported them? We've got the receipts. Can someone who fueled vaccine hesitancy be trusted with public health? What do you think?

Outrageous: FCC Chair Brendan Carr’s threats to revoke Comcast’s license over NBC News coverage is a blatant attack on press freedom. Using regulatory power to muzzle journalism undermines democracy!! We must defend the First Amendment! #PressFreedom

Florida’s proposed law mandating encryption backdoors for social media is a perilous overreach. Weakening encryption doesn’t protect minors—it endangers everyone’s privacy. We must resist such surveillance measures. #PrivacyMatters #Encryption

Just saw a group of school children booing a passing Tesla, and it wasn’t even a cyber truck

Public broadcasting costs you $1.40 per year—less than a vending machine soda. Yet it reaches 97% of US homes and serves as the only local news for rural communities. Why are we cutting this lifeline when billionaire tax loopholes remain untouched? #SavePublicMedia

The government is ramping up protest surveillance—facial recognition, phone tracking, drones. Your right to assemble is being watched from every angle. This isn’t safety—it’s chilling. Be aware, be safe, and don’t sleep on your digital footprint.

It’s Wednesday, my dudes.

Meta didn't just flirt with China—they built a pipeline to funnel US user data directly to the Chinese government. Former exec Sarah Wynn Williams exposes how Zuckerberg sacrificed American security for profit. How much of your data has been compromised?

Closet studio.

@jay.bsky.team out here crushing it—Bluesky feels like a real community. No rage baiting, no doomscrolling, just vibes and real convos. In a sea of toxic platforms, this place is pure oxygen. Keep going, Jay and team. We see you. šŸ¦‹

Hope no one was trying to email me anything important. Apple turned on some sort of category feature on my iCloud email and I missed so many messages.

MySpace Tom would have never shipped our data off to China. #Meta

Apologies for the sound quality on the latest episode—still learning. Tried a new setup and didn’t realize how bad the host’s compression would wreck it. Appreciate you sticking with it. I’ll have it dialed in next time.

While millions struggle to make ends meet, celebrities like Gayle King and Katy Perry are taking 11-minute joyrides to space. Maybe they can spot affordable housing from up there. www.cbsnews.com/news/gayle-k...

The Trump administration is actively investigating former officials, apprehending student demonstrators, and removing people for their political statements. This is not a hypothetical scenario. It is happening right now in the United States. EVERYONE should be alarmed www.cnn.com/2025/04/12/p...

Everyone should watch this. Carole Cadwalladr’s TED Talk exposes how big tech and data manipulation are threatening democracy. It’s a wake-up call for all of us. #DigitalDeception #CaroleCadwalladr #BigTech #Democracy

One of my new favorite podcast. It’s about human remains being found at Mississippi’s largest hospital, goes into generations of family mysteries. My only complaint is the vocal fry of the host, otherwise, very interesting and I was invested 15 min in.

Senators Adam Schiff and Ruben Gallego have asked for "an urgent inquiry" into whether President Trump or others engaged in insider trading on advanced knowledge of his tariff policy changes.

It’s a great time to buy, guys. This is a deliberate attack so the rich can build more wealth. Sure, you and I might be able to buy in a little but it’s not for us. Don’t look at your retirement accounts.

Whelp. No recording for me for the next few days. Caught the kids cold and my voice sounds like shit, wheezing, all the fun stuff. Luckily I got a few in the can ready to push out. Ugh. I hate being sick.

We need more people in the world like Fred Rogers. He was a wonderful human being. mrrogers.fromtherecliner.link

Never thought I’d be agreeing with Mitt Romney but here we are.

Gas is up .30Ā¢ this morning. Hang tough.. Yeah, sure.

Hey. That’s not a bad start. Thanks to everyone who has listened so far! šŸŽ‰

As universal tariffs kick in, Trump’s out on the golf course, telling Americans to ā€œhang tough.ā€ Maybe he thinks a few rounds of golf will solve the economic fallout he created. Classic leadership, right?
