This seems appropriate about now.

We made tremendous progress on measles until 2016. 🤔 what happened then? Oh ya. An orange idiot got elected as POTUS by people stupider than him. 🤦‍♂️

This is the problem with too many people today. (Borrowed from @annkoplow.bsky.social newsletter)

I'm watching a Trump presser where he has stated that he has golfed with English futbol pkayer Harry Kane. Google AI says he has not. Trump lies about EVERYTHING.

We visited Washington DC at the end of April. It was my first (and only?) visit. The goal of the visit, was the Lincoln memorial. It celebrates a man who will never be matched. He stands in complete contrast with the abject failure of a human being that currently occupies the White House.

Nothing to see here. Move along. Move along. If these cases don't have you feeling like Fox Mulder, nothing will.

Federal investigators and lawmakers are reviewing a cluster of at least 11 deaths and disappearances involving high-level scientists, engineers, and support staff. The cases span highly sensitive fields, including nuclear weapons, aerospace engineering, defense tech, and fusion energy.

"Just because a man is an ally does not mean he is on your side."

Russell Crowe and mommy in the movie "Nuremberg."

I'm finally watching "Nuremberg" on @netflix.com. This news headline flashes across the screen. I instantly think of Hegseth and the "double tap" strike. If he's not put in trial once this farce of an administration is ended, then what did I and our vets raise our rights hands for?

I'm attending the Memorial Day observance in Auburn CA.

Tomas Vera@dadkind· May 25

Remembering those who gave all in the service of a grateful nation. We mustn't let their sacrifice have been in vain.

I'm attending the Placer County Democratic Central Committee fundraising dinner. Two competitive congressional districts intersect here. We're dripping with candidates tonight.

Tomas Vera@dadkind· May 8

I'm at the Auburn Area Democratic Club meeting this evening. We're hearing from various candidates. Ballots are already mailed. It's getting interesting!

Tomas Vera@dadkind· May 1

I was at the WWII Memorial in DC today. This stood out. We're not the good guys anymore.

Tomas Vera@dadkind· Apr 26

I am watching this tonight. I guess we really have always been the "bad guys."

Tomas Vera@dadkind· Apr 24

How is this not on the front page of every newspaper and the lead story of every news broadcast today?

I was thinking about this information this morning. This is why the GOP is so intent on keeping people dumb. Link: www.pewresearch.org/politics/202...

This evening I'm joining the @cademocrats.bsky.social Chicano Latino Caucus. We've from Xavier Becerra and Antonio Villaraigosa. I'm looking forward to finally having a Latino governor. It's about time.

I'm at the Placer DCC. A new executive board is being elected. Exciting times await us!

Happy Easter to everyone celebrating. I'm hoping that we can achieve a lasting Peace one day soon.

At the Auburn Area Democratic Club meeting listening to a presentation from @norcalresist.bsky.social. There's lots to do and volunteers are always needed.

I wonder if he left what he saw the "No shitting your diaper" sign.

Next, we went to the rally in Auburn CA. We saw many old friends there as well. This was also the largest crowd I've seen in Auburn. 3/3
