If Rand Paul is on his ass I can confirm two things
1. Even the worst people on the planet hate Pete Hegseth
2. My electoral platform of “drop Pete Hegseth into a vat of crabs” is viable and accepting donors now

Rand Paul just posted this letter from the Coast Guard confirming that 1/4 of the boats they stop carry no contraband. The likelihood that Hegseth & Bradley ordered the murder of innocent civilians is very high.

Markwayne Mullin defends Hegseth: "If there was a second strike, it wouldn't be to just simply take out the survivors. It's because there was still a threat or opportunity for them to run."

On #GivingTueaday, we know there are so many worthy charities who rely on donations asking for money. It can feel hard to support everyone when we’re all spread so thin.

Eating ice as I emptied birdbath of water early. Now, I wait until dark to avoid awkward scenes like this. 🤣
I empty each night so it's easy to refill in morning with fresh, warm water. She looks into the camera like she's looking into my soul.
It was 21F, temp sensor isn't accurate.

Pass legislation requiring that no one earning less than $100k a year be audited or pursued for tax debt while corporatons use arcane loopholes to avoid paying any tax at all.
My bipartisan IRS MATH Act with Senator Bill Cassidy is now law.
Now, if you mess up your taxes, the IRS has to tell you where you made a mistake and how to fix it.
No more spending a fortune on lawyers or hours to find errors.
That means fewer headaches and more money in your pocket.

Wake Up Dead Man is a religious experience. Insightful, exciting, empathetic and hilarious. As much as Josh O’Connor’s film as it is Craig’s, though there’s something comforting about Craig in this role. The twinkle in the eyes maybe. @rianjohnson.bsky.social crafts another winner. #filmsky

A target bird for the coast this weekend was Snow Bunting. We dipped hard, but heard through the Oregon #birding grapevine that a SNBU was being seen a couple miles from our house. We stopped at Broughton Beach on the way home and collected my 335th 2025 Oregon bird (K's 336th) our best year yet! ✔️
