The nightmare unfolding before our eyes feels like the apex in Trump’s grotesque, depraved life. It’s nothing new to women, who are reliving the trauma — across thousands of years — of men taking, abusing, and destroying what they want, when they want.

Grateful for these two, who have been consistently anti-Trump and outspoken about it on their platforms for over a decade.

We are now at the arresting-American-journalists phase of this decade long nightmare.

“An agent took a gun out of Pretti’s waistband during the struggle, then turned and left with it. A shot then stopped Pretti’s movements, killing him, before nine more shots rang out, as agents continued to fire into his body. It was an execution.”

A top five moment from my two dozen Sphere shows (so far) is #BobWeir and Mickey Hart doing “Lazy River Road” in honor of Jerry Garcia, on what would have been his 82nd birthday. Poignant and beautiful. 🥀💀 We’ll miss you, Bob. youtu.be/V_zuP27O9JE

I don’t think non-Deadheads realize the extent of grief Deadheads are feeling right now. 🥀🙁

Some of my best friends in life I met because of #BobWeir. Here’s why. For the Gen-Xer who got on the bus in the early ‘90s, there wasn’t much time left before the Dead stopped. But Bob kept their music going — for 30 MORE YEARS. Thanks, Bob. For all of it.

Hey Kristi Noem and all the so called alphas out there who just really want Trump to notice them: you cant pass this off as “domestic terrorism.” There never needed to be a surge by ice…. You’re just trying to get on TV and impress the boss.

Phish’s New Year’s Eve gag at MSG tonight was an anti-ICE, pro-inclusion gag. That’s the analysis some are going with, and so am I. Thanks, #Phish. See you at Sphere.

What Donald Trump posted about Rob and Michelle Reiner is indicative of his entire being and miserable life. He is vile, and he has never once offered anything positive or of substance to this world. He makes me physically sick and this tragedy makes me physically sick.

What #RobReiner did with Stephen King’s work achieved the impossible: he took King’s complex mind & translated it to film perfectly. Misery, in particular, showed exactly how to do King right. Rob was an artist, a progressive voice, & creator of the beloved films that endure. What a tragic loss.

Trump looked a woman journalist in the eye on camera and spat out “quiet, piggy.” Millions of abused women felt that old terror. The tone, the posture, the smug sneer — all textbook abuser behavior. This is who he’s always been: a lifelong misogynist who hates women and revels in demeaning them.

We knew. Then Mark Burnett made him a TV star and the gullible rubes knew only that version of Trump. And now we are here.

EVERYthing went blue in yesterday’s #elections. Even in deep red Mississippi. I don’t have proof, but my assessment is that it was a five-diaper night for the racist casino bankrupting twice impeached felon cretin currently squatting in The Oval Office. 🌊

Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight. It’s a reminder that when we come together around strong, forward-looking leaders who care about the issues that matter, we can win. We’ve still got plenty of work to do, but the future looks a little bit brighter.
