And I knew I needed to marry FloridaPam when she took me to see Bruce (my first time) in 1977.

bands". The first time I saw Bruce was in 1975.

Such a great point by Gov Pritzker. We the people made this happen. The power resides in us. We don't fear Trump and his lackeys, they fear us.
"Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that."
Looking forward to seeing Jimmy back on the air.

Finally got a chance to watch the @joshjohnsoncomedy.bsky.social routine about Trump and Epstein that came out a few days ago.
I am blown away that he managed to put together a full hour of stand-up about breaking news and it's somehow polished and funny as hell.
Give it a watch and share it.

I worked in healthcare and specialized for a time servicing smaller hospitals. The closing of rural hospitals has been happening all across the country and especially in red states for years. This is why it is important for us to talk to rural voters in red states. We can win there if we do.
🧵 A tiny baby. Not breathing. The desperate mom pulls into a shuttered ER. Nurses—off duty, protesting the closure—rush to save her child.
THIS is the future the GOP is pushing: Medicaid gutted so millionaires have tax cuts. Closed hospitals.
Dead children.
And they do. not. care.

To add to this , the UK is one of the few countries that buys more US goods then they export to the US. It's not even a "layup" to get this done.
We’re supposed to be jumping for joy about a trade deal with the UK, our 7th largest trading partner?

Armando Lago, Cuban exile and economist, estimated that in his long career as revolutionary and leader of Cuba, Fidel Castro was directly responsible for over 100,000 deaths. It is both tragic and ironic that Rubio, child of Cuban exiles, will pass him this year.
“A new study models the impact of the implosion of U.S.-funded disease treatment and prevention in the developing world — and suggests that Elon Musk and Marco Rubio will go down as among history’s greatest monsters if funding and effective administration are not restored.”
Count the Dead by the Millions
From HIV and tuberculosis infections to millions of dead children, the deadly impact of Rubio, Musk and Trump’s agenda has been quantified.

I was at this town hall. A MAGA woman in front of me in line went crazy. Screaming at another woman that was walking down the line videoing people. She was screaming that someone had called her a Nazi. Police came to take her out of line. If anyone has seen this video please let me know.
Town Hall with Congressman Brian Mast. Slick oily politician who literally said that he is loyal to Trump and DOGE. He’s a veteran who sacrificed two legs and a finger by the way. He didn’t answer most direct questions but deflected a LOT. It’s a very red county.

As a Florida resident, this has always been true. The rest of the world is now finding out.
As of today, a new term has entered our language. A “rubio” is a spineless lump of nothing. Example: Don’t be such a rubio.

As someone that was alive to experience it, the renaming of the Gulf of Mexico reminds me of when the Soviet Union would claim every invention or scientific discovery was made by them. This is just as absurd.
We’re not going to call it the Gulf of America. Some thoughts on the latest episode of “The Jim Acosta Show.”
