Get Your Dunkin' Tuesday

 As the blue wave crashes into Washington, D.C., we must remember the political press will always lean right. They already have numerous articles saying, "Not so fast, Democrats." It's the usual suspects; however, we have to be vigilant. This is a rare opportunity to call out misinformation, lies, and skewed headlines with cold, hard facts. Scott Colom gets it . Yesterday, he called out Cook Political Report for its bias. And as his opponent shrinks away in her Confederate bunker, more of this is required.   Here are your highlights:  The average cost of a new car hits  a new high .  Billionaire tax fails in California . Great job, Gavin.  This could be good. Senate advances bipartisan permitting bill .  Nvidia CEO scandal might make the AI bubble burst .  The White House IT infrastructure is compromised . Russia spyware on computers!  Gaza is flooding . Israel could do something, but as we know, they likely won't. The humanitarian crisi...

Get Your Dunkin' Monday

 Not gonna lie, I'm still on a high. We have the opportunity to push the Democratic Party to do big things. Maybe not immediately, but two years from now, progress can be made on a list of items. In the immediate, Trump's reign of terror needs to be addressed. It's good to see Democrats already saying, "lawyer up," to the many criminals in Trump's administration. It's time to make them accountable.  Here are your highlights:  The rats are already fleeing the ship . Three out after the midterm results.  Rot in prison. Russell Brand sentenced to 10 years .  The amount of misinformation today is astounding. A 11-day old baby died because parents didn't allow her to have the Vitamin K shot .  Ruh-roh. Nvidia CEO caught cheating on his wife with a Chinese spy .  The New Wave of Democrats .  One thing we can all agree on is that Hegseth sucks and he must go . Impeach and arrest the bastard.  I am Frank Chow, and I approve this message. 

Get Your Dunkin' Friday

 It's Friday. It's a football night here. It's brisk, with a side of chilly. The leaves keep falling, and I'm already over the time change. I'm also still on a high from Tuesday's results. I empathize with folks who are still cynical. When has the Democratic Party delivered on XY and Z? You can name the Democratic Party's many failings over the last decades, and you wouldn't be wrong. Yet, the results from the midterms have me hyped. We have young, talented, and really smart folks coming into Congress. Will it fade? Maybe? But give it time. Let them work. Continue to pressure them. We have a chance we haven't had since I was born.  Here are your highlights:   Wall St. is worried about the possible regulation of AI .  Hey, maybe dreams can come true. Dems have the votes to end the Electoral College .  Trump's arch gets blocked by a judge.  I'm laughing. We're laughing. Cyber Truck production is done .  Every January Sixer should be in jai...

Get Your Dunkin' Thursday

 I'm enjoying this. I haven't felt this hopeful since 2008. But if we learned anything from '08, it's that we have to keep our foot on the gas. The biggest mistake Biden made during his presidency was not going out and showing his work. Ribbon cuttings, kissing babies, shaking hands, putting his name on checks- people want that shit. "We built that." People need you to beat the dead horse. The electorate forgot quickly how terrible Trump is as president and elected him for a second go-around, only to realize two years later, he's a fuckin disaster. The Republican Party is a disaster. I said this on BlueSky; this midterm was a reminder that Republican policies are wildly unpopular.  Here are your highlights:   The Best MAGA meltdowns . My favorite, "Our Churches, Christianity -- it's all gone." Bob Dylan meets the Pope .  And just like that, OpenAI releases a new statement about "responsible infrastructure."  The techbros are shaking...

Get Your Dunkin' Wednesday

 I'm smiling. The Blue Wave turned out to be a Blue Tsunami. Texas is Blue. Yes, I said that. Enjoy the moment. We worked hard for this. Last night was a repudiation of a fascist/authoratarian government run by Trump. It was a big fuck you to Republicans who will certainly not learn their lesson. And now Democrats have a mandate. Investigations on day one. Lean on this. Get shit done. Our job is to keep pressuring the party to do the right thing. The rest of America agrees.  Here are your highlights:  Governors made history last night .  Huh about that. Dow surges after Dems win .  TRANSPHOBIA LOSES. Alabama elects first transgender legislator to its House .  CVS to break into two companies .  The other biggest losers last night were the Tech Oligarchs .  One thing I hope the media catches on to is that Trump has been a cancer . They love him, so I doubt they reflect it, but it's clear now the country hates him. MAGA is toxic, and the country fin...

Get Your Dunkin' Tuesday

 Today's the day. Well, today is the start of what might be a very long week. Don't expect CA, AK, and some southern states to have all the ballots counted by midnight. There will certainly be fraud claims. There will certainly be claims of ballots that need to be tossed. We know the drill. We know the play. But if everyone goes out and votes in the numbers we expect...we should see the Democrats take back the House and the Senate (although I'm still pessimistic about how many). LFG! Here are your highlights:   Bold strategy! US carries out "defensive" strikes on Iran .  MAGA darlings might lose this week . It's hilarious and for the best.  Hackers attack fridges across the world . Man, that's cold-blooded.  Melania's Peace Deal has been going swell. Russia kills at least 33 in Ukraine, yet another war crime .  The way of giving your two weeks' notice to your employer might be dead .  I try to remind people what's at stake during any election ....

Get Your Dunkin' Friday

 If we get the midterm results we want, Trump will be a lame duck. He'll have two years, but Dems can turn a lot of his terrible policies, decisions, and renovations around. People want change. People are tired of the obvious corruption. I don't think it's necessary to bring out the guillotine; however, doing nothing will be a big mistake. The issue really is timing. Investigations take time, gathering evidence takes time, and getting Republican cronies to testify takes time. Do it anyway. The people want answers, and they want Dems to punch back.  Here are your highlights:   Oh gee, why would this be a problem? Google AI refuses to say who won the 2020 election .  Binance was hacked by North Korea .  I hate the gambling apps. I hate the gambling ads. Finally, Congress is waking up .  Judge blocks Trump Medicaid rule forcing sick people to prove frailty .  Anti-government protests break out all over Italy .  Making profit off the Iran War.
