Father, Grandfather, Widower, Retired, and faithful blood donor. I still believe character matters. Clearly at odds with half of the voters of this country. I am still hopeful for the future . No DMs please. No crypto. No porn. Instant block.

The Trump administration just ordered two Gulfstream luxury private jets for Kristi Noem at a cost of over $172 million.

This comes as Americans can barely afford groceries.

What do you think made America great?

I’ve traveled the world, and every time I come home, I’m reminded of what makes this place special: the culture, the mix of people, the constant diversity. I love this country.

And I also know who truly hates America:

• The KKK
• 3 Percenters
• Proud Boys

I am planning on going to No Kings gathering this weekend in central Texas. And since I was terminated by MSNBC a few weeks ago, can someone let me know where to pick up paycheck that GOP keeps talking about. I have asked many folks going to No Kings, and none are getting paid.

Everyone sing along!

🎶Don’t cry for us, Argentina.
We’re like Canada, only much meaner.
And we gave up healthcare,
For your peso to be finer,
So you could steal our soybean exports.
That went to China.🎶

I do not live in Mississippi, but I’m constantly getting kicked off of Bluesky. I can usually get on if I disable Wi-Fi, but my cellular connection is too slow to load anything. I’m about to give up.

The American people deserve a public health system that puts science before politics.

That's why California and 14 other governors are joining forces to launch the Governors Public Health Alliance to protect communities and guarantee decisions are rooted in data and health.
