Just want to give a shoutout to Judge ALI here who is trying to uphold the law, feed starving kids, and telling Trump and musk to basically go F themselves.

You don’t mess with the Gray Panthers. Ask @ronwyden.bsky.social His biggest entree into Congress was his work from 74-80 as co-director of the Oregon chapter of the Gray Panthers when there was a push to force retirement! The Gray Panthers (now the boomers) movement needs to mobilize!
Get ready for gas prices to skyrocket.
Conan: You know, Anora is having a good night. That's great news. Two wins already. I guess Americans are excited to see somebody finally stand up to a powerful Russian.
You’re a star until Mick Jagger walks in the room.
The most surprising and exciting thing about the Oscars? MICK JAGGER handing out an award!
A word about Conan O’Brien, who I’m lucky enough to know a little bit.
He is extremely funny and has drawn people to him his whole life by his talent.
But he is also amazingly kind, generous and collaborative. He gave dozens of people a start or a second chance.
What’s Irish for mensch?
Tulsi Gabbard, sounding very much like a Kremlin spokesperson on Fox News Sunday, accuses Zelenskyy of an “escalation”
This is so fucking tragic. Today Europe is completely united behind Ukraine and the cause of freedom.
Meanwhile the United States is sitting this one out along with Russia and Iran. Make it make sense.

Breaking from me and @mjsdc.bsky.social : Newly installed AG Pam Bondi sent out more than a dozen memos in a 15 minute period on Wednesday. One of them told staffers to come up with "proposals for criminal investigations" of large companies that have DEIA initiatives. slate.com/news-and-pol...

For what it’s worth, when I spent years in Afghanistan and Iraq, the most powerful thing I ever saw was USAID digging wells & repairing schools. The most effective power we will ever have.

Trump's national energy emergency is mostly for fossil fuels. In defining "energy" wind & solar power are left out -- they account for more than 14% of the country's electricity generation. My @npr.org story: www.npr.org/2025/01/22/n...
Cutting back on diversity and DEI?
History shows you’re cutting back on profits.
A McKinsey study shows more diverse firms average 19% more revenue than peers.
For Apple, that’s a loss of $18 billion in one month.
For Microsoft, a loss of $12 billion.
Is that what we want?
The day after Election Day, Melanie Claros, a South Florida teacher, had more than two dozen students ask about changes to immigration enforcement ahead of Trump's presidency.

Dylan has never made any pretense about who he is - that’s why I believe the movie is spot on with a lot of creative license. He was a poet & a romantic who could never commit himself/his soul to anyone. It’s a contradiction but that’s who he is. His passion is & always has been music.

It’s obvious now most Americans don’t care that Trump is Gollum scum but for those who do: keep fighting.
Such a great duo & friendship between a young Johnny Cash & Bob Dylan when he smiled a lot. This shows how much they liked one another, fed off each other’s talent & how Dylan could sing & chew gum at the same time. Worth watching until the end.
