A Joro spider spinning a web under on a lamp post in the Meiji Jingu Shrine park in Tokyo last week. They are venomous but not considered lethal to humans.

As 2026 beckons, one thing is clear. The GOP is over. Trump and his efforts to wreck America, for heaven knows what reasons, have run out of steam. His cult is collapsing.
It’s time for America to regain its position as a beacon of hope for the Free World.

In four days the Christmas holiday will be celebrated in many parts of the world. And 12 days later, 2026 will hopefully be the start of a cleansing #BlueTide 🌊
Happiest of holidays to all those on @bsky.app who gave me hope this year and who also taught me much.
We are all #StrongerTogether

Tom Hanks understands that Covid is not over & that masks work!
He says he’s in a play and can’t get sick.
“I’ve had covid enough. I don’t want to do that again”
This is the way. Wearing a mask helps keep you healthy and it protects those around you.
A respirator like an N95 is best!

The Wall Street Journal just held and then rejected my comments on an editorial because I recounted what “young Republicans” reportedly said on their racist online group chat.
Rape? Gas Chambers? Driving opponents to suicide? Loving Hitler? This is the mindset of GOP leaders in their 20s and 30s.

Chris Van Hollen. The Senator with tenacity and determination who had the guts to go down to CECOT and see Kilmar Abregu.

As one of the panelists following the live broadcast of “Goodnight and Good Luck” began to criticize Dump, the feed was cut to a blank screen stating “the event has ended.”
Thank you, George Clooney for using your clout to resurrect this important and timely polemic.

This terrible scene does little to change the perception that Democrats in Congress are weak and unwilling to stand up for their constituents.
The Trump administration has raided a Democratic congressional office and detained a staffer.
They ignored the office’s request to see a warrant.

At the Grammy's in 1976, Ella Fitzgerald and Mel Torme explained what jazz is.

If you’re a “Max” subscriber, run don’t walk to watch “2073.” Astonishing both that it got made and is now streaming.
Ignore any bad reviews you read and watch it. Those reviews were likely paid for by Musk, Bezos, Thiel, Google, Zuckerberg et al.
