I just want to take a moment on this Memorial Day to pay tribute to those who lost their lives defending this country and, in particular, those from my hometown of #Quincy MA who lost their lives in the Vietnam War.

Many of those listed in the memorial in this photo were from my “neighborhood” growing up and I knew their siblings. One of them, Peter Gerry. was in Boy Scouts with me. I will never forget them.

Every time I return home, I make it a point to stop at this memorial located at Marina Bay to pay my respects, as I did once again a few weeks ago,

Stop using shorthand. Oracle is not cutting 20-30K jobs. It’s cutting 20,000 to 30,000 jobs.

Gas prices are skyrocketing, and Republicans have done nothing about it. They're more focused on renaming our airports than lowering costs.

Democrats are fighting for a Florida we can all afford.

Enuf. F&@# politics & shouting & anger. Instead: Be kind in every interaction. Listen, REALLY listen. Say “please” & “thank you.” Join the famous general who shared his “ only secret”: “You must care.” Join me & live by three words: Kindness. Caring. Listening. Start … NOW.

BREAKING: HELL YES! Delta Air Lines announces an immediate end to its special privileges for members of Congress until the MAGA government shutdown ends.

Now they'll have to suffer with the rest of us peasants...

“Due to the impact on resources from the longstanding government shutdown, Delta will temporarily suspend specialty services to members of Congress flying Delta,” Delta stated. “Next to safety, Delta’s No. 1 priority is taking care of our people and customers, which has become increasingly difficult in the current environment.”

The dedicated service desk in question allows lawmakers to obtain government rates for trips, make ticketing changes at the last minute, and book multiple seats on multiple flights on the same day to make it easier for them to come and go for votes.

The decision to end the special treatment for members of Congress comes as airport lines have grown ludicrously long in recent days due to a failure by the Trump administration to reach a deal on DHS funding. The TSA falls under DHS so the partial shutdown has them understaffed and stretched thin. Many employees are going without pay and over 400 have quit.

“TSA officers just received $0 paychecks. That is simply unacceptable. It’s difficult, if not impossible, to put food on the table, put gas in the car and pay rent when you are not getting paid,” several airline executives wrote to Congress earlier this month.

At the Hartsfield Jackson International Airport in Atlanta alone, travelers were urged to a lot at least four hours to pass through TSA. Under total Republican control of our government, everything is falling apart. Illegal wars are being waged overseas as our domestic situation spirals into chaos. Trump can't even keep our airports orderly.

Rather than strike a deal with Democrats to end this burden on the American people, Trump has flooded his undertrained, violence-prone ICE agents into airports around the country. They're predictably terrorizing and detaining innocent people already. On top of that, he's now calling for the DHS funding to be tied to his voter suppression bill, increasing the likelihood that this shutdown stretches on.

If the rest of us have to deal with the negative consequences of Republican leadership, the least that the airlines can do is make them feel our pain!

Please ❤️ and share to thank Delta!

Apologies for the repetition, but I just can’t deal with it. “Good. I’m glad he’s dead.“ No. No. No. No. He couldn’t have said that. But, of course he could’ve said it and did say it. My woe knows no limits.

@WorkElizab Congratulations. A-bit of advice to the new graduate. Remember these words from Henry James: “Three things in human life are important. The first is to be kind. The second is to be kind. And the third is to be kind”

[Richard S. Lewine @rslewine]

@tom_peters OK, Tom!

[Tom Peters @tom_peters]

As young Navy officer, I was deployed to Vietnam. Was the war appropriate or not? That’s not the point. Point is I saw myself as “defending“ my country. And I worked for Department of Defense . I am completely & totally & thoroughly disgusted by the change to. Department of WAR.

@tom_peters @BernieSanders Worse than that, Tom. They are complicit assholes in the attempted destruction of the very system that enabled their wealth. Dumb, complicit, punks.

Net worth of the billionaires opposing California's wealth tax:

Elon Musk: $844 billion
Larry Page: $262 billion
Sergey Brin: $243 billion
Mark Zuckerberg: $228 billion
Larry Ellison: $209 billion

Yes. We must tax billionaires. And it starts in California.
