Even before Saturday’s killing, Minnesotans were angry. The police chief called for protesters to stay peaceful. If they manage that, they will have demonstrated considerably more restraint than the armed officers of the federal administration econ.st/4rilp7L

This game has been fun to watch.

So nice.

In November the Predators went 4-7-2

In December they were 10-4-0

I’m not ready to trust yet, but that is quite a difference.

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

Tonight, I get to watch my Nashville Predators get destroyed by the Avs.

Should be “fun.”

Only someone this wealthy would so flippantly suggest you uproot your life, sell your house, pull your kids out of school, quit your job, request a transfer — all to save 50 basis points on CPI. 🤡

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

Two quick goals is fun.

I’m still skeptical, though.

I’m about to subject myself to another Nashville Predators game.

Please pray for my sanity.

But I saw a pretty clear trip.

Trump gutted USAID, stopping critical lifesaving assistance around the world, in order to save money, and is now putting more than that much money into interfering in Argentina's domestic politics by bailing out the ruling party.

The Preds are trying to convince me that they might not be awful this year.

I’m sitting in the local hotel lobby waiting to pick up a visitor and the music they’re playing makes me feel like I’m in Bridgerton.

Currently we’re on a classical version of Bittersweet Symphony, which is a bit weird (way too prominent on the bass).

I know there are lots of competing things to worry about, but this matters more than you might think. Pollution kills babies and the elderly. It harms student achievement and long term life success. It causes illness. It causes climate change.

The Trump administration has all but stopped enforcing environmental laws
The EPA is the nation's top environmental cop. In the last few months, the federal agency has significantly scaled back pollution enforcement.
