Timothy Snyder's Cousin (read him! listen up!)
Disability Studies (books, articles, book series of 35 at UMP)
Other *baby* cousins with considerable talents too
As 2025 comes to a close, I'm continuing a tradition that I started during my time in the White House: sharing my annual lists of favorite books, movies, and music. I hope you find something new to enjoy—and please send any recommendations for me to check out!
@AdamKinzinger Nah! Ukraine was only ever about protecting children --beginning with my first cousin, Timothy Snyder, and ensuring his post to Oxford. Dear Karma.
@TimothyDSnyder And just what exactly is your opinion of Mary Lou Retton these days? Timothy Snyder? Paris sounds like my dream sculptures and Slaves at the Louvre.
@PeteButtigieg One of the best fighter pilots from WWII? This pilot was a person who was born with a congenital disability -- a short arm. O'Toole. Glad Roosevelt didn't discriminate in the dangerous mode of scapegoating skilled humans with disabiities or diverse abilities.
Right now, in America, 22 million workers make less than $15/hr. 40 million make less than $17/hr.
Shamefully, the federal minimum wage hasn't been raised since 2009 and remains at $7.25/hr.
I asked Trump's nominee for Treasury if we should raise it.
His response?
"No sir."
You may have heard Mr. Musk talking about a superior aristocracy of people with “super high IQs.”
Does he want to use technology to improve life for all?
No.
What he wants is even more wealth and even more power for the people on top.
@ChaosDragon421 @ffejhedges@PerfectOurUnion Hilary was interrogated for 11+ hours not using the 5th amendment once and nothing was found, the interrogations were bipartisan. The whole world knows this and you’re in a cult 🤷🏼♀️
Biden's full statement on the preemptive pardons. Unclear if any/all of them will be accepted. No list of names or specifics appended. Also, this would remove 5th Amendment immunity if Congress subpoenas them.
For anyone complaining about President Bidens pardons he knows that psychopaths are planning to terrorize Democrats. It doesn't go far enough. They can be questioned and I bet they'll show up unlike the corrupt GOP people that ignored Congressional subpoenas. 5th amendment?
🚨 BREAKING: President Biden's term concludes with zero political appointees indicted or convicted, and no cabinet resignations over impropriety—an ethical benchmark rarely seen, especially in contrast to Trump's administration. Well done!
Victor Willis is the only original Village People member left. He is 73.
Willis was the lead singer and was the only member of the group who was not gay. He performed as a policeman or a naval officer.
Each of the 6 members represented popular gay-fantasy personas.
Will you join me tomorrow in commemorating my father’s life, legacy, and leadership…and in committing to strategic, compassionate action to infuse our nation and world with true peace, which includes justice? It’s a great work…we are more than able.
