The mic cut out during O Canada at the Sabres game.
Buffalo filled every single second of silence.
Sang it word for word.
This is how you tell your neighbors you see them.
We love Canada. Don’t listen to the noise.

America could wake up on Wednesday with all three branches of our government — the — Executive, Legislative, and Judicial — Trumpist.
With this clip, take five minutes to ponder Germany’s memorials and the price that nation paid for being bamboozled by a bombastic autocrat. Listen to the heartfelt message of my German tour guides, for whom these memorials are like ghosts of mistakes made and evils allowed… ghosts that haunt their society still. These are the same guides who clink glasses in the beer halls and yodel from the hilltops with our American tour members. They admire America. They love America. And they are worried for America.
If we vote for fascism, it’ll likely be won by one or two percent (or even less)…and perhaps just a few stadiums of people will tip the balance. And history has taught my European friends that the cost of a course correction is infinitely more heartbreaking after a wannabe dictator wins an election than before. We are all participants, we are all responsible, and we will all bear the consequences of our collective choice.
A century ago, Germany’s democracy was hijacked by a bombastic and charismatic tyrant — and in this five-minute video, you’ll learn how he did it. Why did I produce this? Because I believe that history is speaking to us, and all too often, those who refuse to learn from it are doomed to repeat it.
As you watch, imagine filling out a Bingo card filled with Germany 1933/USA 2024 parallels: big rallies, rage-filled and hateful rhetoric, simple answers promising quick and easy solutions to complicated problems, empty promises of a great-again future, scapegoating outsiders, and political enemies silenced on day one. And notice the caring wisdom and concern from my German friends as they share these lessons from their dark history.
It’s hard to understand how Trump could, on the eve of a tight election, paint a picture of Liz Cheney before a firing squad by actually saying, “Let’s put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrels shooting at her, OK? And let’s see how she feels about it when the guns are trained on her face.” You can’t get into the mind of a dictator with an insatiable appetite for power — but you can recognize the playbook they all seem to follow.
Just watch this clip. It’s excerpted from my hourlong public television special “The Story of Fascism in Europe,” which is streaming free (and ad-free) at https://t.co/YA10kVH0V8. If you care about our democracy and love our country, it’s hard to stop watching.
When I produced this in 2018, I hoped this day would never come in our country. But November 5th is upon us. Please share this with anyone in your life who might need a reminder that the stakes are high...and this is very real.
Joe Biden pulled off perhaps the greatest oil trade of all time and in the process broke OPEC's grip and basically no one knows about it. We did a long segment on it last night and it's fascinating and worth your time.

Way to talk in generalities Joe. Not saying there aren't a lot of fucked up things about pharma. That's why we created https://t.co/39PNLwZeYs. But to ignore that the same industry has saved who knows how many lives is bullshit and you know it.
It's also disrespectful to all the doctors, researchers and medical professionals that dedicate their lives to saving lives, like Dr Hotez and the 800k plus doctors in the country that believe vaccines save lives
You arent trying to find the ground truth on vaccines. If you were you would bring on someone who focused on debating the issue. Like @thereal_truther .
Trying to bully Dr Hotez is ridiculous. You have producers that will prepare you and you get to control the conversation.
@RobertKennedyJr also has a staff ready to prepare him, and these topics are what he talks about in every speech.
You both do this on a daily basis Dr Hotez works every day to try to find ways to help people.
Joe , you and @elonmusk's @twitter are the mainstream online media and your platforms have become everything supposedly wrong with MSM. You are driven by self interest. Just like the MSM always has been accused of.
And you both have earned that right. You busted your asses to be great at what you do and earned all you have accomplished.
But don't lie to yourselves and all of us and tell us you are different. You aren't.
Here is a clip in which @GregAbbott_TX:
1) Conveniently leaves out the fact that Texas’ gun death rate is 73% higher than CA’s.
2) Accidentally points to exactly why we need federal gun safety laws.
In 1955, Mamie Till insisted the casket of her son, Emmett, be open so the world could see how grotesquely her son, 14, has been beaten & mutilated by a white mob in MS.
It was a watershed event in the civil rights movement.
I wonder how Americans would react if they similarly were confronted with images of innocents torn apart by AR-15s?
Tim Ryan: "I have the privilege to concede this race to JD Vance, bc the way this country operates is that when you lose an election you concede. You respect the will of the people. We can't have a system where if you win it's a legitimate election & if you lose someone stole it"
Greg Abbott let more people into the room to watch him ban abortion in cases of rape and incest than he's letting into the room to watch tonight's debate.
Here’s what the @GOP don’t want you to know:
- 8 of the 10 states with the highest murder rates are Republican states
- CA actually has lower middle class tax rates than TX
- The gun death rate in Texas is 67% higher

Luigia Colucci was an Italian immigrant who came here in 1917, unable to read or write and thanks to what some on the right might call 'chain migration.'
She also happens to be the great-great-grandmother of Ron DeSantis - my commentary on his hypocrisy:
