My brother and my friends calling and coming over to the house to celebrate my ‘birthday’ today because they’re respecting my decision to not celebrate it on Monday was probably the most sincere gift I’ve ever received. Yoh. 😅

The day before the mid-terms nogal. Poetic justice.
There is a book to be written about how the Trump admin has systematically self-sabotaged its global leverage & soft power.
