Steve Martin may be the most talented person in any of our lifetimes.  And, like many celebrities, he keeps his politics to himself, which is, of course, his right.

But ask yourself: Is there any chance at all that this powerhouse has the same political sensibilities as the white folks in rural Alabama?

If you want a good laugh, I highly recommend this short video, depicting some ICE agents trying to arrest a protestor on roller skates.

I met a guy today who does cyber security for dozens of military bases around the U.S.

Considering his career, I didn’t expect him to bring up his belief that the president of the United States is making horrible, unhinged decisions on our nation’s behalf.  He’s especially concerned about the destruction of relationships with our allies, claiming that the stability of the free world is at stake.

He believes, and I hadn’t had this thought myself, that certain single-issue voters really don’t have a choice when it comes to voting.  “Suppose your top issue is that you’re vehemently anti-abortion.  You can’t vote Democrat, so you have to vote Republican even though you know that 99% of the rest of their policies are based purely on utter stupidity.”

IMO, this is a novel way of looking at the devastation of democracy in the U.S. and elsewhere around the globe, though I doubt it’s the controlling factor.  In this case, the SCOTUS Dobbs decision allows states to do whatever they like re: abortion.

In any case, most of us are worried about our country’s future, and for good reason.
