@geoff_calkins the best thing you will see today. After being banned from Brighton High, the Central High band all buy a ticket, come as the greatest student section of all time, and, when the Warriors run back an early kickoff, pull pocket kazoos & play the school fight song!
@Out5p0ken I can’t believe no one has mentioned her time as a candy striper who always volunteered for bed pan duty because she has an iron stomach and an encouraging way about her - even with poor people.

Talking about the loathsome piece of shit and Elon Musk, this is one of the most powerful, on point speeches I've ever hear from AOC — who just keeps getting better and better at this. 🎯🎯🎯👇
Gov. @Tim_Walz: If it was up to JD Vance, I wouldn't have a family because of IVF. Democrats are investing in prenatal care. We're the ones that are for universal pre-K. We're the ones that are providing school meals. I'm not gonna back down one bit on this whole family values thing. We're making it more affordable to have children by having paid family and medical leave. Where is JD Vance's program?
MAGA: Trump is a more powerful speaker than Obama.
Trump: “Where there’s so much water, you don’t know what to do with it. You know, it’s called rain. It rains a lot in certain places. But uhhhhhh, no. Their idea. You know. Did you see the other day, they just put, I opened it up and they closed it again. I opened it. They close it. Washing machines to wash your dishes. There’s a problem. They don’t want you to have any water. They want no water…”
A Democrat was in the White House when my family was sent to the internment camps in 1941. It was an egregious violation of our human and civil rights.
It would have been understandable if people like me said they’d never vote for a Democrat again, given what had been done to us.
But being a liberal, being a progressive, means being able to look past my own grievances and concerns and think of the greater good. It means working from within the Democratic party to make it better, even when it has betrayed its values.
I went on to campaign for Adlai Stevenson when I became an adult. I marched for civil rights and had the honor of meeting Dr. Martin Luther King. I fought for redress for my community and have spent my life ensuring that America understood that we could not betray our Constitution in such a way ever again.
Bill Clinton broke my heart when he signed DOMA into law. It was a slap in the face to the LGBTQ community. And I knew that we still had much work to do. But I voted for him again in 1996 despite my misgivings, because the alternative was far worse. And my obligation as a citizen was to help choose the best leader for it, not to check out by not voting out of anger or protest.
There is no leader who will make the decision you want her or him to make 100 percent of the time. Your vote is a tool of hope for a better world. Use it wisely, for it is precious. Use it for others, for they are in need of your support, too.
@DrLeighMJohnson@FromCBU I’m so frustrated with this whole situation, both as an alumna and as a former administrator (and occasional instructor). But, as I look back it seems almost inevitable that we’d end up here. There’s plenty of blame to go around.
