Get Your Dunkin' Friday

 A race war . Trump said it out loud. It's what he's been calling for since he was first elected, but he just "truthed" it out. I feel for the people of Minnesota and the Somali community. The amount of terror Trump has rained down on their cities has been relentless. Now, he's trying to incite his extremist base to start killing them. He must be stopped. I know Walz and his team will be prepared, but you can't work with the FBI on this one. We know which side they're choosing.  Here are your highlights:  Hurricane Isaias strengthens and heads toward landfall . Prayers for the Gulf Coast.  There's something really disturbing about Hegseth's desire for blood. Orders a live-streamed execution of the Ft. Hood shooter .  Sen. Jon Ossoff has time, and he's closing really strong .  Democratic Senate candidate SC Annie Andrews, on the other hand, is not. Do not throw trans folks, especially kids, under the bus. Fuck this consultant crap .  Nobel Peace...

The midterms are less than a month away, and Republicans appear to be in disarray. It's kind of funny to watch all the ways they are scrambling. Trump was in Texas again to support non-Texan Paxton. There are races that are too close to call that shouldn't be. The anti-incumbent sentiment is strong. Amongst all the noise, I haven't seen a clear vision offered up by Democrats. Each candidate seems to be appealing to their constituency with variations of health care, prices, war, and chaos. Honestly, I don't care; win. And then get shit done.  Here are your highlights:   South Korea tests its first hypersonic weapon .  Michigan police suggest they might have a serial killer targeting houseless men .  Arizona Dem candidate says she was r*ped while fixing a campaign sign . Fuckin' awful.  The price of diesel is crazy high, and Trump is to blame .  Nothing should surprise us anymore, BUT Don Jr.'s ex, Kimberly Guilfoyle, has been up to some wild stuff as Ambassa...

Get Your Dunkin' Wednesday

 We got a small win locally. A data center is not being built...for now. We rallied. People showed up. And the council rescinded the plan. Activism works. Organizing works. Big AI needs to slow down, work with locals, and use clean energy. They can't just park data centers right next door. As someone else said, "This is our land." Here are your highlights:   It baffles me that Susan Collins is still running for the Senate. God, I hate her.  A group of detained immigrants have launched a hunger strike in a Georgia ICE facility .  Russia continues to commit war crimes .  Spain's endless line of corruption .  If we had a functioning Congress, we'd legislate something like Kalshi targeting Native American tribes .  Republicans are worried their cash ain't enough to steal the midterms .  I am Frank Chow, and I approve this message.  I am Frank Chow, and I approve this message. 

Get Your Dunkin' Tuesday

Another day, another crazy thing the president said. Either he has dementia, or he's absolutely insane. Maybe both. Iran might bomb California. He's both. I don't understand how the media continues acting like he's normal. There are images of him standing crooked. It looks like he was using some walking assistance. Crickets. Jake Tapper, are your ears buzzing yet?  Here are your highlights: RFK Jr. is a racist piece of shit who should be in jail for stealing funds from those in need.  The Paramount merger is horrible. Skydance is the new stupid name .  Detaining citizens . Abolish ICE.  The Fox News interview of the "friends" of Nolan Wells needs to be studied .  France has a student uprising .  A new documentary about Gaza and Israel is receiving standing ovations. NAZA .  I am Frank Chow, and I approve this message. 

Get Your Dunkin' Monday

 We had a lovely meeting of like-minded liberal folks yesterday. We're a small group of progressives in our small town, but it's always nice to chat and figure out how we can effect change. One pressing issue is data centers. No one likes them. Not even die-hard MAGA folks. A town near us had some shady dealing s and might get a large data center soon. It's causing quite the fuss. I don't think officials realize how much data centers piss people off. AI for what?  Here are your highlights:   Trump names Jay Clayton as new AI Czar . "Super intelligence" guy with no super intelligence.  This sounds familiar. Russian researcher dies of plague, shutting down several hospitals .  SCOTUS back in session . It'll be interesting to see how they deny climate change.  China is shrinking its banks .  The Iran War is leaving soldiers to fend for themselves .  The Ethiopian war is escalating, causing alarm across Africa .  I am Frank Chow, and I approve th...

 Our president is a fuckin' idiot. I couldn't even get through his latest interview with the Times . He doesn't live in reality. He doesn't know what he's talking about. And I'm pretty sure he thinks it's still the 1980s. He is likely going to try to rig the midterms. He will likely fail. And somehow it'll all be Joe Biden's fault. When historians look back at this time, they're going to conclude America is full of morons.  Here are your highlights:   JD Vance straight KKK shit .  Look out. Letitia James assigned to the Cornell 7 case .  Jobs report is lower than expected .  More than 4,000 people have died in the Congo from Ebola .  Something is really wrong with Silicon Valley . AI torture chamber.  Man undergoes surgery 11 days after ICE shot him . ICE needs to be abolished, and ICE agents need to be prosecuted.  I am Frank Chow, and I approve this message.

 The death penalty shouldn't exist. Tennessee just proved that . Yet the Supreme Court is pro-death. It's bizarre that so-called Christians want to kill people, but that's the Republican way. Death panels for thee! I don't know what compels folks to administer state-sanctioned killings. I don't get the justice of it all. This would've been the first woman killed by the state in 200 years. Yes, you read that right. Might as well have burned her alive at the stake.  Here are your highlights:    Midflight stabbing being investigated as a terrorist attack .  Weird. Hegseth brags about firing generals .  Republican candidate for governor beat his wife, killed someone at age 7, and then there's the whole demonic possession thing .  China be hacking .  AI in healthcare is already going as well as you would think .  Vaccinate your kids. Pennsylvania has a measles outbreak . Thanks to MAHA.  I am Frank Chow, and I approve this message.
