Saddened to wake to this news. RIP Glen Hansard. I Once introduced me to you but your music is what made me a fan. From The Frames to Swell Season to your solo music. Every song was a thing of beauty. www.irishtimes.com/culture/musi...
There’s a staffer whose job it is to roleplay these calls to him.
Trump: "Behind the scenes I must tell you Iran can't believe the press they get. They can't even believe it. And they told me. They said, 'It's amazing how well we're doing in the papers. We're not doing so well--' They're negotiating with us to make a deal."

There isn’t much to do in Choshi but if you want to see the sunrise and sunset, it’s the perfect place. The lighthouse is a great spot too.
To reflect the company's train line being near a "cliff's edge" both financially and physically, Choshi Electric Railway in Chiba Prefecture has nicknamed itself the "Inubo cliff edge line."

Chair Comer just threaten to have the House Sergeant of Arms forcibly remove me from the Oversight Committee for calling out Grifter-in-Chief Trump for corruption and making money off of the American people.

If he carries through with his Gaza statement. He’s going to ban Muslims again, and for those currently residing in the US, possibly deport or place them in detention camps. Especially if there is a terrorist attack in response to his actions in Gaza.
So at the same time as Trump is chumming up with Bibi saying they're going to convert Gaza to a resort run by his son-in-law, Trump's CIA is saying they're not going to fight terrorism in the Middle East anymore. www.wsj.com/politics/nat...
Tariffs are the smoke screen to take focus off Musk. Implement them to put focus on tariffs, remove them after Musk spent weekend stealing data from govt departments and shutting them down, focus back on removal of tariffs. Rinse & repeat until their motives are complete. Media need to focus on Musk

1. Show up. Go to the places Musk is taking over, bring cameras, demand to find out what's going on and where it breaks the law. 2. Refuse to allow standard business to continue unimpeded. Deny unanimous consent, delay votes, etc. 3. Be public about how illegal all of this is 4. Lay out a plan

I went to post about the National Japanese American Memorial in D.C., which is beautiful but usually missed by tourists. It is a deeply staggering admission of guilt and a warning to future Americans. I went to link to the inscriptions and- Well, they took the site down. www.nps.gov/places/japan...
@maxwellfrost.bsky.social hoping AOC has your support to be the top Dem on the house oversight committee. Time for some fresh ideas and a generational change.

I want to introduce you to Next Comes What by Andrea Pitzer because I will going on about it a lot! It's worth your time. I know it's worth mine. It's about what we can learn from the rise of strongmen to thwart Trump. The first ep is "How We Survive This Mess." And people are digging it.
We seem to forget that all of the assaults we have seen on objectivity and factual information over the last 3-4 decades weren’t all tied together. Everything has been tied together to poison the well that Americans drink from. Social media and internet put the assault into hyperdrive and focused it
The only reason anti-vax attitudes were able to take root in the modern era is because vaccines are so fucking good at their job people forgot why we need them
