Amazing! The GOP science deniers in Congress quickly released the heroic Dr. Anthony Fauci’s diary and subject him to another clown show hearing.
Yet Republicans sit on their hands and help this administration to withhold and cover up millions of pages of the Epstein files. The Epstein Class.

The daily posts, e-mails, substacks, podcasts and book launches by Democrats and others often feel more like money-making opportunities than principled stances against fascism and racism.
I do not get that sense from either @aoc.bsky.social or @mayor.nyc.gov.

A friend of Filipino heritage experienced a hate crime yesterday morning while sitting quietly in the #FontainebleauVegas food court. 1 of 5 people at a table 10 feet away flung a cup of ketchup that hit her shirt, and went all over the table & floor. Security is reviewing overhead camera footage.

I shopped at a local market this afternoon for the first time after a year and a half in another state.
Aside from some sale items, the prices across the board have skyrocketed.
Trump-flation is out of control and likely to get much worse.

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.

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.
