John's Life Springs: Clear clear skies over Bay yesterday. The cool breeze helped on hot afternoon. Evening came leaving the same orangish sunset as arrived in Morning's dawn! Woods busy, as were bugs.. Not a breath of air today. 58ºF headed to 79. Ya'll be careful out there!

A second man, Edwin Lopez-Cornejo, has died at Delaney Hall, the inhumane ICE detention center run by private prison contractor GEO Group. GEO Group’s profits have soared by over 700% since Trump has been back in office. Imagine profiting from death and suffering. Deplorable.

“No one knows more about construction than me.” —A president who stupidly built a helipad on a slope, so it had to be torn apart and rebuilt because it, duh, wasn’t level.

Here is the good news: DOJ is now 0-20 in lawsuits to gain access to voter files and tomorrow is the 90th day before the election which means states can't purge voters -- even if DOJ wants them to. The bad news: Trump won't give up trying to use DOJ to undermine the elections.

Trump voters were promised two things: no more foreign wars and Epstein files. Congratulations, you got both.

The same old Susan Collins charade. As soon as a controversial nominee or a bill has enough votes to pass, she announces she will vote no when it doesn’t matter. She never casts a deciding vote against Trump. Now she will claim this shows how she is so “independent.”

We can hardly wait. Our Congress passed a bill demanding that this happen, but they seem too corrupt/intimidated to follow up on it. We're hoping to replace most of them soon, but whatever you can do will be helpful & much appreciated. #ProudBlue

There is no version of yourself you could become that would satisfy the people who hate you. So you might as well be who you are.

John's Life Springs: After day of fast moving clouds, evening exploded in in swirls, long tendrils. Quickly the skies darkened, beginnings of fog, dark sunset! Thick fog no breath of air, dead hush broken only by calls of Catbirds. 62ºF headed to 72! Ya'll be careful out there!

The Secretary of Health and Human Services is pathologically lying, gaslighting psychopath.

RFK: "You are saying nonsense." Bash: "I am not saying nonsense, excuse me?…This is not productive. " RFK: "You're talking nonsense…You were scaring people." Bash: "Why are you saying that?" RFK: "Because that was the job of CNN." Bash: "Okay, stop."

Nobody in the U.S. Senate is more responsible for the overturning of Roe v. Wade than Susan Collins. In November, we will defeat her.

The Trump DOJ withdraws subpoenas for NYT journalists. Know why? BECAUSE. THE. NYT. PUSHED. BACK. Me thinks there is a lesson here.

Our economy has become so concentrated in a handful of giant A.I. corporations that the risks of a recession or crash are rapidly growing.

Brace Yourself for the AI Bubble

Are we watching an AI revolution, or a slow-motion economic disaster?
