To My Fellow Democrats: Pull Up. It’s Time To Pull Up
My former friend and colleague Utah Senator Mike Lee sent out a gross, cruel, utterly insensitive post two days ago on the horrible Minnesota shootings. Well, Minnesota Senator Tina Smith didn’t look the other way or complain about what Lee did. She surprised him. And confronted him. There’s a lesson here for my new political party. Hosted on Acast.

Stop With The Dangerous Partisanship. BOTH Sides Commit Political Violence
Upon hearing of the horrible politically motivated shootings in Minnesota over the weekend, damn near everyone instantly tried to prove the killer came from the “other side.” That’s all social media cared about all weekend. Not how horrible and tragic this event was, but rather looking only to score political points off of the killings. We have to be better than this. Hosted on Acast.

Be Righteously Pissed Off This Weekend But Stay Peaceful
Quick hits this Friday: thank you Israel for once again doing the work of the free world; Kristi Noem said our military is going to overthrow the governments of Los Angeles and California; and, please ignore Trump’s Kim Jong Un parade tomorrow.

Trump, And Only Trump, Created All These Crises
The economy was doing really well when Trump was sworn in. And there were no trade wars when Trump was sworn in. And border crossings had been dropping precipitously for over a year when Trump was sworn in. There was no immigrant “invasion.” So if you think things are in crisis right now, then there’s only one person to blame - Trump. Am I right? Hosted on Acast.

Abducting People in Home Depot & 7-Eleven Parking Lots. Not Who We Are
Trump immigration henchman Steven Miller last week demanded that ICE cops go to Home Depot and 7-Eleven parking lots to grab immigrants. And so they are. And this is what started the whole thing in Los Angeles last week. Is this really the kind of country we want to be? I don’t think so. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Trump Desperately WANTS A Crisis. Don’t Give It To Him
What’s happening in Los Angeles right now, and what’s been happening for the past few days has made it crystal clear again that Trump is just itching to put the Marines on American streets against the American people. That’s his game plan. And that will be his game plan when he tries to cancel the 2026 midterms. Also, my conversations with the American people continue. This week, college students at the University of Delaware. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A Conversation With A Friend Who Believes I Made A Mistake
I formally joined the Democratic Party this week. My friend and fellow political traveler Sophia Nelson thinks that was a mistake. Sophia is an author, speaker, and professor.
