What kind of president makes war on his own citizens? Who the fuck sends troops into cities to shoot people?

What kind of courts allow this coup d'etat? Oh, right: The Supine Court.

And we just shrug and put up with this crap?

A clip of @nicholasmeyer.bsky.social reading from his new novel, ‘Sherlock Holmes and the Real Thing’ at the Mysterious Bookshop in #NYC this evening.

This talented gentleman’s work, both as a writer and a director, has given me a lot of pleasure over the years. 🙏🏻

Ok he’s not the surgeon general. He’s the secretary of health and human services but I believe my point is still valid.

Nicholas Meyer @nicholasmeyer.bsky.social · 18d

Well, that explains it!!

Nicholas Meyer @nicholasmeyer.bsky.social · 18d

Once my tour is over, if you can afford to send it in a prepaid envelope, I can sign it for you.

How is it that Robert Kennedy is the surgeon general?? Where did he go to medical school? What are his scientific degrees? In what medical or scientific peer-reviewed periodicals has he published? I know it's a ridiculous question in Pussy-Grabber-in-Chief world, but WTF?

As our dictatorship takes hold, is it possible we are now too exhausted or frightened to fight? Just asking.

In Mr. Smith Goes to Washington we are told the only causes worth fighting for are the lost causes.

I guess that includes the Confederacy, but still..!
