Thank heavens for Dr. Fauci's leadership and calm demeanor to guide us through Covid in spite of trump's disastrous missteps

As everyone knows, the best humor is the kind you have to explain.

"Nothing disturbs me more than the glorification of stupidity." Carl Sagan

It's so breathtakingly crass to treat the deaths of Americans serving in the military as some contest, a contest that, in your twisted, rotting mind, you think you can brag about winning. There is no reverence, sanity, solemnity, or decorum in this vile regime.

The Pentagon is withholding causality and hit numbers. The CDC is withholding infection rates. The FDA is withholding information about food contamination. The EPA is withholding pollution and climate data. This corrupt administration is ALL about concealing the consequences of its incompetence.

Time for Dems to play hardball and replace McConnell. He certainly would have done so

"When we so cheapen the concept of human life that we can be permissive to the occasional bomb or bullet, I think we've taken a giant step back into the Dark Ages. And I don't think there's a light at the end of that tunnel. " ~ Rod Serling

I haven't been this impressed with a candidate in a l-o-n-g time. If @jamestalarico.bsky.social is the future of the Democratic Party, we are in VERY good shape.

When we win, the first bill I’m filing is a comprehensive anti-corruption package: Overturn Citizens United Ban corporate PACs and super PACs Ban members of Congress from trading stocks Once we defeat the most corrupt politician in America, we can defeat this entire corrupt system.

Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there and to the ones we miss...

Additional funds for ICE: $70 billion Cost to end homelessness for nearly 8 years: $70 billion We don’t suffer from a poverty of resources. We suffer from a lack of moral imagination.

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!

Josh Hokit just ended his post-fight speech at the White House UFC event by yelling "Michelle Obama is a man!" A disgraceful spectacle through and through

One of the most influential leaders of the 21st Century, known for his intelligence, composure and his ability to inspire change. President Barack Obama has earned global respect and we celebrate him today!

To those wondering what my dad would have to say about Trump, here’s a clue from the past…

"It is difficult to produce a television documentary that is both incisive and probing when every twelve minutes one is interrupted by twelve dancing rabbits singing about toilet paper." ~Rod Serling

With each passing day, I'm liking Jon Ossoff more and more. I think he may be the real deal.

My dad's response to a letter: "As to your questions-for relaxation I build model airplanes and read. I can't dance the length of a small closet, but I like music. My pet peeves are Senator McCarthy and the Ku Klux Klan. My favorite people are Eleanor Roosevelt and Jackie Robinson." Rod Serling

what a mess and what a metaphor

Like so many, my dad was plagued by PTSD and nightmares after the war. In college he switched his major to language and literature because, as he said, "I needed to get it out of my gut...write it down. This is the way it began for me." Images: Rod Serling 1943 & 1975

Dad's 1972 commencement address to Ithaca College graduates:

With all due respect, the CENTCOM commander should be able to explain why we’ve been asking Americans to die in this war.

"The moment you begin to censor the writer- and history bears this out in the ugliest of fashions -so begins a process of decay in the body politic that ultimately leads to disaster." ~Rod Serling Speech, Library of Congress (1968)
