Please, to people from other nations and countries, don't judge or hate all Americans. Most U.S. citizens are good people, just like people everywhere else. A country's leaders don't define every individual. Judge people by their character, not by their government.
Don't wait for the government to change your life. Build something that no bad leader can take away from you.
Happy birthday to an actual President, Barack Obama. 💙
We are deciding whether we want to be a country of ethnic cleansing and concentration camps.

Wow! This is amazing! No matter who you supported in this race, the fact that big money lost is a huge win for everyone!!

El-Sayed: "If all Mike Rogers got is that 'his name is Abdul, and my name is Mike,' you're gonna be surprised how many people are like, 'Yeah, but that's the Abdul who wants to bring down the price of my groceries and make sure I got healthcare. So yeah, I like Abdul over your Mike from Florida.'"

My latest story has some intrigue. FCC finally released Chairman Brendan Carr’s financial report for 2025 late Friday. The report states Paramount gave him tickets to the gala worth $12,390. But he and his wife sat in skybox seats that sold for $125,000 a piece. www.propublica.org/article/fcc-...

Balcony solar just plugs into a wall outlet, sharing an existing circuit with no permits or rewiring.
A new deal on balcony solar just dropped in the US

A letter landed on my neighbor's kitchen table. State seal, no explanation, 80 hours a month or she loses her Medicaid. Nebraska was first in the country to try this. Here's the letter, the senators who voted for it, and the woman it almost cost a surgery. open.substack.com/pub/joadt/p/...

Gill: All 100 senators last week passed a non-binding resolution condemning any pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell. They're simultaneously considering confirming the guy who met with her and moved her to a low-security facility as the top cop in the United States. That is so insane to me.
