I was fortunate to sit next to Bill Moyers at a 1997 League of Conservation Voters dinner in Manhattan. Here is the text of the speech he gave that night. It is my privilege to share it now. 1/2 @hcrichardson.bsky.social @rbreich.bsky.social @maddow.msnbc.com @chrislhayes.bsky.social

And Trump is still in the Epstein Files.
Newly-formed #TropicalStormMelissa is forecast to strength and meander into the weekend, and could become a major #hurricane.

However, despite long-term track uncertainty, Melissa is very, very unlikely be a U.S. threat.

My latest on #Melissa:
Sour Melissa: The Hurricane Watch for October 21st
Newly-formed Tropical Storm Melissa is a major threat to the western and central Caribbean, though there remains almost no risk for the continental U.S.

When the goal is to destroy everything, don’t be surprised when everything is destroyed.

Imagine the right wing outrage if a DEM president defaced the White House.

Ben Meiselas calls on those with standing to act: seek an injunction to halt Trump’s White House ballroom. Argue fraud—Trump claimed he’d pay and not alter the structure—and use the damage to the East Wing as the emergency basis. Demand discovery now.

And the companies that paid for it should be heavily taxed to do so
I’m disgusted by the photos of Ttump’s demolition at the East Wing, but I’m even more sickened by the renderings of his mar-a-lago ballroom dwarfing our White House. Once we’re rid of this despicable man, that ballroom must also be removed.

Also Epstein
Everything is so much more expensive since Trump’s Liberation Day. Why is that?
Trump take gas
Yesterday's big gas price jumps in the Great Lakes showing up in data. Jumps from yesterday:
MI +4.5c/gal
IN +3.4c/gal
IL +2.5c/gal
WI +1.8c/gal
These states all saw notable jumps due to the BP refinery fire last week. National average back over $3/gal for now due to these hikes.
Did Fox report on the shitposting imposter?
Imagine the outpouring of rage from the right if a DEM president defaced the WH.
Imagine the uproar from the Fox, right wing ecosystem if a Democratic president defaced the White House.
So Trump lied? Shocked.

"As strict originalists, we note that nothing in Article II prohibits the President from commandeering a military jet and using it to drop his untreated and disconcertingly voluminous and fluid feces over major American cities."
Mitch McConnell did this.

The Kremlin always knows what Trump will say before he says it. How is that possible?
