Hello!
My shows in Chicago and Detroit were AMAZING. Thanks to everyone who came out to spend some time with me, Eleanor Goldfield, and Krish Mohan. This Saturday evening I’ll be back in NYC performing at The Loft - get tickets.
It’s great to be back on the road but I also have to keep my eyes on the machinations of our corporate oligarchs:
Our regime change operations in Venezuela

So thanks for joining me for another week covering important news from the belly of the beast, Washington D.C.
