White House statement tonight:
“President Trump does not bluff. He is prepared to unleash hell. Iran should not miscalculate again.”
“Iran has been defeated militarily. Any violence beyond this point will be because Iran refused to understand they have already been defeated.”

My final interview pre-Covid shutdown 5 yrs ago tonight was in Vegas: After P12 tourney late games, asked Bill Walton if he'd consider 3rd booth position for P12Nets FB broadcasts. He talked for 20 minutes straight ... about Nevada geology (basin and range). I had to ask again.

To embarrass Northern liberals and humiliate Black people, southern White Citizens Councils started their so-called "Reverse Freedom Rides," giving Black people one-way tickets to northern cities with false promises of jobs, housing, and better lives.

ALT Reverse Freedom Ride: Negro Family On Way Here A Negro couple and their eight children were placed on a Trenton-bound bus in Shreveport, La., this morning by the White Citizens' Council of Louisiana. The family of Alan Gilmore - the first "reverse Freedom Riders" to this city - were scheduled to arrive at the Perry Street bus terminal here at 4:20 a.m. on Sunday. The children range in age from eight months to 10 years. Charles Barnett, president of the White Citizens' Council, said the Gilmore family would 'look up Nicholas Katzenbach in Trenton.' He apparently referred to Nicholas deBelleville Katzenbach, deputy U.S. Attorny General. Katzenbach was in charge of the marshalls on the University of Mississippi campus when James Meredith enrolled there last fall....

Chipotle: 26% profit increase. Raising prices.
Starbucks: 31% profit increase. Raising prices.
McDonalds: 59% profit increase. Raising prices.
Shell/Mobile/BP: 60% profit increase. Raising prices.
There's not a labor shortage.
This isn't inflation.
It is 100% corporate greed.

I’m for large-scale forgiveness of student debt - we are above $1.6 trillion and it’s crushing far too many families. But only 35% of Americans go to college. You would want to do something for the other 65% too.

This country is so accustomed to its monstrous health care system that when a 2-year-old child with a genetic condition needs to rely on a high school robotics team to meet his basic health care needs the media thinks its a feel-good story, not a dystopian nightmare.
This 2-year-old's family couldn't afford his $20,000 electric wheelchair, and their insurance didn't cover it. So, a high school robotics team built him one for free ❤️️ cbsn.ws/2TNEMp6

It's called "remote learning" because of the remote chance my kids are going to learn anything.

It’s like an episode of Veep but real.
.@jonathanvswan: “Oh, you’re doing death as a proportion of cases. I’m talking about death as a proportion of population. That’s where the U.S. is really bad. Much worse than South Korea, Germany, etc.”
@realdonaldtrump: “You can’t do that.”
Swan: “Why can’t I do that?”
