@jaleelshaw comes back home to Philly for an evening of @JohnColtrane music as part of the Coltrane Centennial celebration!

Excited to share the @SOUTHphl stage with the saxophonist who (according to Downbeat) “pours out love” through his horn. I agree

@krassenstein Learn his love language. Number one: “talk about me.” Number two: “say you love me.”

If you can’t do number two, just do number one and he’ll be happy.

@AscensionRex @MarioNawfal There’s a war raging the economy is tanking and he’s consumed with Bruce. Doesn’t take an intellectual to see the shopkeeper is not minding the store.

@AscensionRex @MarioNawfal I believe the current topic isn’t about policy, it’s about presence. The current President is not present. By any definition.
