Turin Epicurean

15 years ago today I arrived on Downing Street in a cage.
I've seen off Cameron, May, Johnson, Truss and Sunak and I'm still going strong.
Only two Prime Ministers have ever done longer stints here: William Pitt the Younger and Sir Robert Walpole.
Bill and Bob - I'm coming for you...

Happy Valentines Day, Saturday. 2/14. Our COTD The Chariot.

1. Dress for success. You never know who you'll run into when the Charioteer appears.

2. He holds the Magic Wand in his right hand. Success and victory are yours.

3. Our vehicle, check your oil, gas, and tires. Police, do not speed.

We are still waiting for the rest of the Epstein files. Stop breaking the law, #pambondi

The only thing more powerful than hate is love of chocolate❣️

Love Advice from the First President Wisdom and warnings on matters of the heart from the man who was “first in the hearts of his countrymen.”

"It’s important to imagine the Americans of 1776 in their own context, not only living lives that created enduring ideals of liberty and self-government but also finding love and charting the course of their futures."

good afternoon

$38.3 bn for concentration camps, shuffled into the pockets of Trump's billionaire cronies in the prison industry. Nothing for health care.

Sanders: The American people do not want this country to be an authoritarian society or an oligarchy. We have our differences, that’s what democracy is about—we argue it out. We don’t throw people who disagree in jail. We don’t intimidate the media. We don’t send ICE agents to shoot people.

The Presidency as Protection Racket ‘Nice little state you got there. I sure wouldn’t want anything to happen to it.’

Trump can’t pardon election felon Tina Peters for state crimes, so he’s squeezing Colorado instead—moving Space Command, canceling $100 mn in grants, and vetoing a clean-water pipeline. This type of presidential coercion threatens federalism and rewards election misconduct, this CATO paper argues.

Get it? See, it's funny 'cuz our President is a pathological liar who rarely, if ever, tells the truth.

Accessory to rape of a minor rates about 20 years in prison. Accessory to sex trafficking of minors rates another 20 years. Times a thousand cases, that's about 40,000 years she has to serve.

This image isnt enough: male victims depicted as young boys need to be portrayed too + the objects of sexual depravity the perpetrators used should be by the victims so the public opinion can better understand what was going on. Most facts are willingly silenced so ppl can dismiss the crimes

Walz: "The federal government needs to pay for what they broke here. There's going to be accountability on things that happened, but one of them is the incredible and immense cost borne by the people of this state. The federal government needs to be responsible."

My 70 year old dad, whose favorite band is The Righteous Brothers, just informed me that he enjoyed the Bad Bunny show bc even though he didn’t understand the words, “it seemed like everyone on stage was having a good time!” So there ya go lol.

Way-hey! After concerted local pushback, New Jersey company decides not to contract with ICE:

"The contract with ICE will not move forward, a Holman spokesperson told Patch.

"I have been informed that we declined that particular body of work," the spokesperson said...

It isn't an empty gesture, it may not do anything now, but it's a signal to history, and to the world and to ourselves, that this is not ok.

Project Salt Box: How citizen sleuths are monitoring ICE in Maryland Inside their homes scattered around the Baltimore area, the group of watchdogs is unearthing records, like property filings, contracts, and government procurements, that are otherwise overlooked.

On Monday evening, Rachel Maddow spotlighted this group working out of Baltimore. Just another in a long list of unsung, American heroes. Donate to their project!
