Gabe Evans is a lightweight and a liar and is guaranteed to be a one term congressman. Write it down in sharpie. Get a tattoo if you'd rather.

One day of real protests outside and the people who were like "fuck you peasants we owe you no explanations" are now out there with (probably false) cya clarifications. Pressure works. Keep it up. They answer to the people, it is never ever the other way around.

Interesting thread
There's a lot of talk about how Trump's tariffs may help revive American manufacturing by encouraging consumers to buy American-made goods. If you believe this, I want to tell you a story. 🧵

Happy to see that one of my senators is not putting up with his bullshit. Hoping Hickenlooper is the same.
Bennet: "What's disturbing to me is that out of 330m Americans, we're being asked to put somebody in this job who has spent 50 years of his life peddling in half-truths, peddling in false statements, peddling in theories that create doubt about whether or not things we know are safe are unsafe."

First Gulf War. We were on our way to dinner and I remember the news that the war had started broke in on the car radio. Everything other than Lee Greenwood, yellow ribbons, and the kid at school whose mom went to jail over going to war is fuzzy though.
What’s the first major news story your remember as a child?
