So I went to this old fashioned place called the grocery store today. I noticed that the prices of many items in there SEEMED higher than I'd paid before, but I wasn't worried. I went to the cashier and loaded up my groceries on the conveyor belt. When the cashier finished, the amount was twice as much as I felt it should be. So I said, "That's not right. Your prices are wrong." She said "No sir, I scanned all of these, I didn't enter any prices by hand." I replied, "See, this is a simple misunderstanding. Those prices have to be wrong because the President said that unaffordability was a lie, a con job by Democrats. So all you have to do is just match the prices to MY reality." And then everyone stood up and cheered, as a big burly man ran up to me and said "thank you sir!" Naturally, I'm not welcome at that grocery store, Bigly Cheap Foods, any more. Oh well, it's fine. I never liked how they made me show ID there.

On my way back to NYC from “My Recovery Day Jam” in Cleveland I stopped at Stella Maris Treatment Facility and played to about 30 clients with songs from 2 Recovery cds, Sobering Times and Clean Getaway. Between tunes I spoke about my journey and how i got from there to here!

BANNON: “Trump will be president in 2028 and get a third term. People oughta get accommodated with that.” “What about the constitution?” BANNON: “He’s a vehicle of divine providence.” (PSA: Believe them. He is not joking.)

Woke up another year older this morning. Gonna go out on a limb and say the big reason i’ve made it this far is the fact I’m 38 yrs in Recovery. Besides occasionally my mind writing checks my body can’t cash , i’d say I’m still rockin’ pretty well:) Thanks for the Boitday wishes

CNN has uncovered audio of RFK Jr. praising a description of Trump and his supporters as “belligerent idiots,” “outright Nazis,” “cowards,” and “bootlickers,” while also comparing Trump to Adolf Hitler. @KFILE (2024)

The majority of the No Kings protests have dispersed at this time and all traffic closures have been lifted.  We had more than 100,000 people across all five boroughs peacefully exercising their first amendment rights and the NYPD made zero protest-related arrests.
