Benjamin Franklin used the pseudonym “Silence Dogood” as a young printer’s apprentice. He wrote social commentary anonymously in his brother’s newspaper. He was fired. And then he became an American patriot and inventor extraordinaire.

Weingarten: There are so many people who want to fight for our democracy and say no kings. And what I have just been told, that in New York City, there are more people at Times Square than there are on New Year's Eve

Stopped at Office Depot. Had to wait in line behind five other middle-aged people buying poster board and markers.

I like how they are carrying American flags, but not attacking police with them.

Absolutely wild the GOP is carrying water for a dude depicting himself as a king in a jet dumping poo on Americans.

Impossible to take anyone still standing by Trump seriously on any topic. Mike Johnson the “conservative Christian” is just cool with this at a values level, eh?

Mmmkay.

Thomas Paine, American Crisis:

"THESE are the times that try men’s souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman."
