It's weird how there are always lots of anti-Dem hoaxes emanating from Russia, pro-Trump hoaxes emanating from Russia and also various bomb threats always emanating from Russia. Hard to put together what it all might mean.
What a beautiful show tonight from John Douglas (@jrdouglasesq) at Gman Tavern in Chicago. The Trashcan Sinatras (@TheTrashcans) are one of my favorite bands of all time, and John’s solo set was powerful, sublime, and lovely.
@jrdouglasesq Incredibly excited for the show tonight! Everything is enhanced by the @TheTrashcans, so seeing John on his solo tour will be a real treat.
Josh Shapiro on Vance's latest CNN disasterclass: "That was bonkers ... the US senator from Ohio just came on your show and blamed his own constituents for his own lies. This guy is so pathetic ... JD Vance should be ashamed of himself."
We are talking about degrees of military service, not military service itself. Tim Walz served 24 years, Vance served four. Walz deployed to Italy. Vance to Iraq. Neither fought in combat. But both served far more than the vast majority of Americans and certainly many of those taking swipes right now. And, of course, more than Trump who avoided military service entirely.
Hey @JDVance, did you forget what the USMC taught you about respect? Tim Walz spent DECADES in uniform.
You both deserve to be thanked for your service. Don’t become Donald Trump. He calls veterans suckers and losers and that is beneath those of us who have actually served.
WHEN DO THE GUNS START MAKING US SAFER? Texas keeps weakening its gun laws and selling a record number of guns; meanwhile, the state’s gun homicide rate has increased 90% since 2011.
Shouldn’t Texas be one of the safest states in the nation? Or at least getting safer?
The craziest part of the Chinese balloon is that the US economy just added 517,000 jobs this month, the unemployment rate is at a 54-year low, and manufacturing has come roaring back in America.
Fellow Black men,
Next time a wealthy white Republican tells you not to be scared of the police if you’re not doing anything wrong, tell them not to be scared of the IRS if they’re not cheating on their taxes.
I always listen to the this glorious song by Trashcan Sinatras ( @TheTrashcans - one of the great bands) on New Year’s Eve.
“Now we raise a toast to celebrate,
As December’s embers fade.
But every fire is just a hoax
For January’s little joke.”
