Trump and his gang are deconstructing America. This is their purposeful goal and an obvious one, if you look past the daily barrage of absurdity, indecency, corruption, wrongdoing, and abuses of power. It is the story that must be conveyed to the citizenry. - David Corn

The Sunday nighty night jam is precisely that with the Steve Lukather guitar solo kicking major friggen ass along with everything else on this tune.

It's not in the words that you told me
It's not in the way you say you're mine
It's not in the way that you came back to me
It's not in the way that your love set me free
It's not in the way you look or the things that you say that you'll do
Hold The Line
Love isn't always on time

For the past couple of months, I’ve been doing some serious soul-searching, have spent hours in quiet reflection, and faced some hard truths.
I need to come clean now and get this all out in the open.
Man, I gotta admit those MAGAs in my mentions have been right all along: I am woke.
“How woke?” you ask.
I hope you’re sitting down. - John Pavlovitz
