When can I pre-order Jake Tapper’s book about Trump’s cognitive decline?

Love it !

Trolling Jake Tapper…
This is so good

Lawrence O'Donnell is a superstar.
Plain and simple.

The reason why Trump can’t simply say “no” when asked if he will pardon Ghislaine Maxwell is he needs her to continue to cover for him. Giving her hope for a pardon guarantees she will keep her mouth shut about what she knows.

Not a single human was surprised.

Democrats are united, authentic, and everywhere—communicating the stakes, telling the truth, and making sure Republicans own the shutdown they caused.

I'm not a conservative commentator. Billionaires won't pay me $150m. No major network is making me the editor in chief.

But I am a lawyer who fights for democracy. I did build Democracy Docket from scratch. And, for $10 a month you can help it do its vital work. hubs.ly/Q03CbHTt0

Oregon's stubborn resistance to Texas National Guard troops invading reflects the elitist and closed-minded belief that the people of Portland have nothing to learn from the people of Texas

--Ezra Klein, tomorrow in the New York Times

Trump: "Washington DC is now so safe. Restaurants are booming, nobody is being shot and killed. They come in from Iowa, Indiana, they come from all over the country and the parents end up getting a phone call that their son was killed. Not anymore ... Chicago is safe. Now it's really safe."

String of Correctly Spelled Texts from Trump Fuels Speculation That he is Dead The texts were the work of someone with at least a seventh-grade education.

Brilliant. @borowitzreport.bsky.social

Trump healthcare President

Trump’s healthcare plan is just “don’t get sick during my term.”

1.47 %
Not a landslide

Trump has never sounded guiltier than this and that's a high bar

Love this. Superbly done. Please send this far and wide. @donwinslow.bsky.social

this is a very very big story because of the apparently totally fake story ICE/DHS put out about what happened.

COLLINS: Which local officials in Portland have said that the National Guard is needed there?

Very tragic

“.. it appears to justify an open-ended war against a secret list of groups, giving the president power to designate drug traffickers as enemy combatants and have them summarily killed without legal review.”

Assistant U.S. Attorney Sean Hennessy told the judge that Martinez had been following agents for 30 minutes, and Ruiz had been following agents for 20 minutes before the shooting. As she drove, Martinez was broadcasting on Facebook Live for more than 2 minutes, Hennessy said. Video captures her repeatedly sounding her horn and following the vehicles, Hennessy said. In the charges filed Sunday, prosecutors notably did not mention a loaded gun in Martinez’s car that was referenced in a previous statement by the Department of Homeland Security. But in court Monday, Hennessy said Martinez had a loaded firearm on the passenger side of her car but never brandished it. Martinez’s attorney, Parente, said she has a valid firearm and concealed-carry license. Parente also offered to play an agent’s body-camera video that shows the shooting, noting that prosecutors did not show the video that he claimed disputes the government’s version of the shooting. Parente said the video shows an agent turn federal vehicle left into Martinez’s vehicle, after which an agent says, “Do something b----.” The agent then exits the vehicle and shoots at Martinez. Parente said Martinez has “seven holes” in her from the shooting and that agents were in such a hurry to take her into custody at the hospital that they had to return later when Martinez began bleeding from her wounds.

Report on detention hearing for woman shot by CBP the other day reveals she had a concealed license.

Martinez was released.

We don’t negotiate with terrorists,

The Supreme Court passed Ghislaine Maxwell back to Fat Satan so he can give her the blackmail pardon.

“Haven't heard the name in so long. I’ll take a look at it. I’ll speak to the DOJ. A lot of people have asked me for pardons.”

Harder for parents to keep up with the multiple vaccine schedules .

The acting director of the CDC called for vaccine makers to develop separate shots against measles, mumps and rubella to replace combination MMR vaccines, despite no evidence of any benefit to getting the shots separately.

They all acquiesce…
“Pentagon lawyers, even if they have concerns, cannot overrule the OLC opinion, which is the prevailing legal interpretation of the executive branch. Many DoD lawyers are also reluctant to openly dissent, three current JAGs told CNN.”

"At the Pentagon, some military lawyers, including international law experts within DoD’s Office of General Counsel, have raised concerns about the legality of the lethal strikes on suspected drug traffickers....

Multiple current and former JAGs ... told CNN that the strikes do not appear lawful."

I received the Covid, flu and MMR vaccines at the same time in September .
Living on the edge :)
