This week is going great:
A grand jury refused the Trump regime's attempt to indict Senator Mark Kelly.
Pam Bondi made a complete fool of herself in Congress.
ICE gave up and is now leaving Minnesota.
And just now, a judge ruled that Secretary of War Pete Hegseth can neither hold back Mark Kelly's military pension nor cut his rank.
As Trump said: "We’re going to win so much, you’re going to be so sick and tired of winning."
Right off the bat: I loved the #BadBunny halftime show.
Yeah, I could do without some of the over-the-top sexy shit — but let’s be real, that’s his bread and butter. I’m not excusing it, just saying: if that’s all you saw, you missed the whole damn point.
From the very first image — people cutting sugar cane — this was political as hell. Sugar cane isn’t some random aesthetic. It’s the industrial agriculture imposed by the United States after they took over Puerto Rico in 1898. That was the moment communal farming was destroyed and Puerto Ricans were forced into brutal export agriculture for U.S. profit. That history matters.
The entire performance was an homage to the island I grew up in. The neighborhoods, the sounds, the colors, the references — there’s so much nostalgia packed in there I honestly can’t even list it all. They went down the fucking list. Every Puerto Rican I know was watching this with tears in their eyes.
And maybe most important of all: he did the whole thing in Spanish. At a time when Spanish has basically been criminalized — when people are afraid to speak it in public, afraid of having the “wrong” accent, especially after years of Trump-era racism — that alone is a massive political act.
I need to rewatch it because there’s so much going on, but I wanted to put this out there now. Because I already know a lot of people aren’t going to get it at first glance.
But make no mistake: this wasn’t just a halftime show.
It was a huge cultural and political moment — and for Puerto Ricans especially, it meant a hell of a lot.
¡Pa'lante!🇵🇷✊
I read a passage today and imagined how it would have sounded when I was 20 (50 years ago).
"The distracted conditions in the study are similar to how our clients eat, such as eating while checking email, scanning social media feeds, texting, surfing the Internet, tweeting - you get the idea"
Technology what hast thou wrought? In 1975 that would have been nonsense. e.g. Why would a person tweet?
RELEASE THE FILES!
IMPEACH ALL REPUBLICANS!

This is obviously an older recording but given the particular political times we are in, not only in the US but globally, hearing this piece from Les Misérables from 17 Jean Valjeans in a multiplicity of languages, and the history those languages represent, is quite poignant. It makes my eyes leak.

Define Brandish: to shake or wave (something, such as a weapon) menacingly
Hmmm?
I see a lot of phones being brandished.
