Chicago, it’s good to be home! Michelle and I built the Obama Presidential Center to be a place where people of all ages can learn, play, and work – and we can't wait to welcome you all later this week!
I'm heading back for two months with just my dogs. I'll be out there on the edge.
We call ourselves "intelligent," yet the humblest fungus can decompose waste and build soil, a tree can harness solar energy, and a wetland can purify water—all without toxic byproducts. True intelligence is learning from these systems, not bulldozing them.
And to think the industry told me a magical HBCU story with a Black teen boy lead wasn’t “marketable”. Hmmph. 🫣 Want a signed copy? malikbooks.com/shop-1/ols/p... #booksky
I have to remember all I need to do is live and breathe, exist. The rest is at my own discretion. No pressure.

My real home. Thirty miles from my fake home in town. Oregon.
It's asking a lot to reporters who never showed any guts or commitment to the truth or respect for the People. They are part of the scheme to crush the American way of life, willing accomplice spreading the lies and disinformation without questions. Too few are honest and caring.
Thomas Massie says the conspiracy theorists were right about Section 224 of the NDAA, which he says will merge the US military with the IDF. Massie says the provision is treasonous and warns that it will force the US to compromise its own security for Netanyahu's demands.
I'm heading out on my two-month trek through the Olgilvie Range of Alaska soon. It's in the silence of wilderness where you find the answers in your head.
A very powerful article about the polar explorer Will Steger. www.kare11.com/article/news...

He's a master of distracting us from crimes he's already committed by continuously committing new crimes. 5 months until the Midterms. #AccountabilityIsComing

American should be putting massive pressure on Russia to withdraw from Ukraine, not fucking with innocent people around the world including in the US. Trump is a traitor.
The United States is as war because we have an idiot for a president.
Wages, retirement accounts, interest on savings accounts, and social security is not keeping up with inflation. Not even close. Americans are sinking. And trump is looting the country.
What's the point of working so much for a house you're never in. So you can sit around in it for a few years after you retire. What a scam.
Let’s be more like South Korea and impeach, convict and jail our president too
A few years ago. Nearing the end of my 45-day trek, no resupply, across the Olgilvie Range from the Yukon River to the Dempster Highway. Just me and my three dogs. Very hungry.

WATCH— @aoc.bsky.social :“We’ve been taught to lower our expectations for things that a generation ago were afforded to every American. It didn’t feel like a fantasy to be able to have one job, support your family, go on vacation, and put some money in your pocket…” (From @marcofoster.bsky.social)
Ansari: "Do I believe Blanche will be forthcoming? No, I do not. I think every administration official has lied over and over again. Bondi had senior DOJ officials like Harmeet Dhillon whispering in her ear telling her what to say or not to say. That's weaponization of the Dept of Justice."
