“The three most important days in American history since the Civil War have been: Dec 7, 1941. Sept. 11. And Jan. 6. We don’t use years for the last two. They aren’t dates on a calendar; they are scar tissue.” Spot on, Rep. Swalwell. Eric hits this one on the nose.

Opinion | I gaveled in Congress on Jan. 6. We can never stop looking back at what happened.
Rep. Eric Swalwell: By claiming that Jan. 6 was “a day of love,” Trump is attempting to gaslight our nation on an industrial scale.

“When historians look back on this moment in American history, the date that may stand out to them is . . . Sept. 15, when [VP Vance] promised that the federal government would use the assassination [of Charlie Kirk] to begin cracking down on leftist organizations.”

ABC just silenced Jimmy Kimmel. And I just silenced ABC on all of my devices.

Me doing this doesn’t make a rats ass bit of difference to the powers that be.

But if everyone who agrees (that canceling Kimmel was a huge first amendment step backwards) does the same thing, their ears will perk up!

Breaking news: The Environmental Protection Agency has proposed eliminating a requirement that businesses report their greenhouse gas emissions, ending a program that has tracked the climate impact of major polluters since 2010.
EPA says companies shouldn’t have to report planet-warming emissions
The announcement amounts to a major rollback that would eliminate the primary means of tracking climate goals. The EPA framed it as a cost-cutting measure.

I love how music transcends not only every human but every species. That’s why I love all musicians because they share a message that resonates with every living being on this planet.
