The Kennedy Center was named after my uncle, President John F Kennedy. It was named in his honor. He was a man who was interested in the arts, interested in culture, interested in education, language, history. He brought the arts into the White House, and he and my Aunt Jackie amplified the arts, celebrated the arts, stood up for the arts and artists. It is beyond comprehension that this sitting president has sought to rename this great memorial dedicated to President Kennedy. It is beyond wild that he would think adding his name in front of President Kennedy’s name is acceptable. It is not. Next thing perhaps he will want to rename JFK Airport, rename the Lincoln Memorial, the Trump Lincoln Memorial. The Trump Jefferson Memorial. The Trump Smithsonian. The list goes on. Can we not see what is happening here? C’mon, my fellow Americans! Wake up! This is not dignified. This is not funny. This is way beneath the stature of the job. It’s downright weird. It’s obsessive in a weird way. Just when you think somone can’t stoop any lower, down they go…

Just the orange deranged clown is telling the truth. All the Patriots are lying about who he is and what he’s capable of and what he would do including four-star generals, decorated veterans, and people who have given a lifetime of patriotic service to the country. All of them are full of it. Only Trump is telling the truth. Give me a break. Vote like your freedom depends on it.

J.D. Vance just told the NYT it’s the Republican party’s plan to prohibit women & girls from traveling across state lines w/o first taking a pregnancy test. Can’t believe we’re having these sorts of conversations in 2024 ffs!! VOTE Ladies, they plan to control where we travel.

BREAKING: Senate Republicans just blocked legislation to protect a woman’s right to travel across state lines to get the health care she needs. Make no mistake: right now in America, MAGA Republicans are trying to hold women who need abortion care captive in their own states.

The question is what it has always been- fit or unfit. And the answer was obvious all along. Character matters, still.

Read this twice. And then realize if you’re a woman and you vote for Trump, you are insane.

Bravo Vice President Pence. This takes courage. I know many other leaders in your party privately share your same assessment. I hope that they will follow your lead and speak out publically too.
Pence: I will not be endorsing Donald Trump

Long after Trump is dead and gone, you stupid motherfuckers who supported him will be remembered for the nasty, shitty, ignorant, insecure, hateful, pathetic losers that you are. No one will forgive or forget what you've done to destroy our country.

Via Asif Siddiqi: “Note found in a used record I bought online from the original owner's mother” (you wouldn’t see an emotional note like this from someone taking over a deceased persons Spotify account or acquiring their old hard drive)

Guys, it’s Trump or Biden. Live in the real world. If you saw Donald Trump tonight and aren’t supporting Biden, you are helping elect Trump. It’s not complicated.

I have posted this before but .. 26 years ago, a gunman entered Dunblane Primary School in Scotland, killing 16 kids and a teacher. The UK govt responded by enacting tight gun control legislation. In the 9400+ days since, there have been a total of O school shootings in the UK.

With just one Leafs game before next Saturday, Schenn will remain in Vancouver for now (baby watch). Leafs are renting him ice to skate everyday with a TOR skills/development coach, who will also remain behind.

In @GregAbbott_TX's state, Houston, the most populous city in Texas, the fourth-most populous city in the United States & the sixth-most populous on the North American continent has a boil water alert. Houston is also one of the wealthiest U.S. cities. This is unconscionable.
A boil water notice has been issued for the City of Houston ‼️ Everyone should boil the water before drinking, cooking, bathing, and brushing their teeth. More Information Below bit.ly/3gNfKaW
