Artist boycott of The Kennedy Center continues to grow

“Any artist cancelling their show at the Trump Kennedy Center over political differences isn’t courageous or principled-they are selfish, intolerant, & have failed to meet the basic duty of a public artist: to perform for all ppl” — Roma Daravi

this seems specifically designed to break mail-in voting (where deadlines are defined by postmark)
As of 12/24/25, USPS changed policy on when they postmark mail. Mail dropped off is no longer guaranteed a same-day postmark. Tax returns & other time-sensitive items are now stamped when they reach a regional processing center, which may be days later. Plan deadlines accordingly to avoid penalties.

Re-upping this in case someone needs to hear it going into the weekend and New Years. You aren’t alone— this is the hardest time of the year for so many people, and there’s *nothing* wrong with you if you’re one of them.
The next few days are going to be hard. The fear is palpable. So please, if you’re at all wondering: I wish you could see how much the world needs you. Right now, all that matters is getting to morning.

CBS paid the president of the United States millions in bribe money and now they censor news reports so it does not annoy him. I don’t know how much plainer we can put this.

The White House has been caught.

The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims.

In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.

The DOJ released thousands of numerically labeled Epstein files yesterday.

In one file was a photo of Trump with young girls.

As of this morning, that file EFTA00000468 is now missing from the DOJ website.

They deleted it.

The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

The Kennedy Center is a living memorial to a fallen president and named for President Kennedy by federal law. It can no sooner be renamed than can someone rename the Lincoln Memorial, no matter what anyone says.
