Proud dad. Used to be a moderate. The crank turned; the world changed. Now, I guess I'm a lib 🏳️‍🌈.

In favor of democracy, the Constitution, and the rule of law. Opposed to oligarchy, corporatism, & fascism. Appalled by Republicans. Disappointed by Dems.

I don't think any rational person would drive a fastboat in the southern Caribbean right now. We're now at 20 strikes killing 80 people.

Driving a fastboat with drugs is suicide right now. Perhaps the captains are too confident that only drug boats are targeted?

Double-breasted suits are officially creepy now. I imaginine that he likely wears this while entertaining his Proud Boys ... without pants. I don't see any pants. Shirt tail, bony knee caps, sock garters, black socks.

I will die having worn exactly one double-breasted suit. It was tan.
if someone is willing to pay for the products, i'd be willing to purchase these items, deconstruct them, and give them to expert tailors, shoemakers, and craftspeople for review. i will also see if i can track down the factories. i would be interested to know if these items are made in the US

🚨 Your occasional pre-budget reminder that if a govt chooses not to tax the super-rich, it is (by definition) choosing to tax those with far less wealth and income instead. If there is no #WealthTax in the budget, Labour will prove that it really is only the little people who pay taxes. #TaxTheRich

Last night, the National Guard chased children who were out enjoying Halloween in Navy Yard.

There is no valid reason for armed soldiers to terrorize children like this. End Trump’s occupation of DC. National Guard out NOW.
