“I’m sorry I don’t have a plane to give you,” South African President Cyril Ramaphosa told Trump with a chuckle in a press conference.

We’re at the stage of fascism where other world leaders apologize for not bribing Trump.

My brother Ted is amazing. Growing up, I always admired his artistic abilities. Then he started writing poetry, publishing books and writing comics. After all of that, he still had time for a band and a host of other projects. Congratulations, Ted and Puna Press, on 30 years.
Puna Press is 30 years old. Never knew I could maintain this. Fortunately I’ve received a lot of help.

TikTok asked the Supreme Court to temporarily block a law that would effectively ban the social media app in the U.S.
The company said the law violates the company's First Amendment rights and its over 170 million American app users.

TikTok asks Supreme Court to temporarily block government ban
