    In the days after a chaotic confrontation between police and protesters at a conservative Christian rally on Capitol Hill, several groups have questioned why the demonstration was held at Cal Anderson Park and how the city could have better prepared. The rally, advocating “freedom from same sex attraction” and “the sacrality of biological gender,” was permitted in the heart of the state’s most LGBTQ+-friendly neighborhood, in a park named for the state’s first openly gay elected official.

My new proposed political barometer is corporate radio. I knew Biden/Harris were cooked because all the ads and giveaways were tied to inflation (“$1000 to fight inflation!”). Now the ads all talk about getting ahead of tariffs. We’ll see how my theory plays out.
