Sunday thought: Really, truly, the end of Trump is near MAGA is cracking up, but beware

If you’re taking some satisfaction from the MAGA crackup, don’t let your guard down. It’s when Trump feels he’s in trouble that he does the biggest and craziest things to deflect attention. Some thoughts... https://robertreich.substack.com/p/sunday-thought-really-truly-the-end

Cool! Does this assume fluid resistance proportional to the speed or to the square of speed?

Very excited that “Cloudy with a Chance of Starships: How the Drake Equation Reveals the Odds of Life in the Cosmos” by my pal @sevenrasmussen.com will publish next August from Princeton U.P.! This is the book for anyone interested in space. Please click on the link to sign up for updates! 🎢🪐

Minneapolis police chief warns officers: Stop unlawful force by ICE or lose your job Chief Brian O’Hara says he’ll fire city police officers if they don’t intervene when immigration agents use unlawful force.

This is great. Very few people want to go to jail, get disbarred or die for this regime. Make them fight you. They will cave.

My former political party is now officially the “participation trophy” party.

Pollster: Trump's net approval rating among voters under the age of 30 is going into a deep, dark black hole. Look at that, -46. That is a shift on the net approval of 56 points in the wrong direction since February. We almost never see drops this big, this quickly.

Awesome - thank you, Drew!

The emperors of capitalism are drugged out of their minds.

The fact that four hostile drones tried to hit Zelenskyy’s plane & it’s barely a blip in the news cycle should terrify everyone. We’ve been dragged so deep into the chaos era that an attempted strike on a world leader doesn’t even break through. When this becomes normal, the world is in real danger.

So you gonna drop your lawsuit against us right, Pam?

I know a number of folks who worship the ground Crumb walks on, even though he produces cringeworthy material like this. A superb artist with too many terrible ideas.

Bob Crumb coming out of retirement just to say "RFK Jr. is right about vaccines and my ex-wife should've taken more advice from me" is such a fitting end to Boomer Americana and everything the "alt-comix" movement claimed to stand for

Rather than supporting Spotify (whose CEO Daniel Ek is a major booster of Helsing Al-powered weapons systems) and their “Wrapped” foolishness, I’m posting my top 5 of the year from @andrewhickey.500songs.com and his magisterial “A History of Rock and Roll in 500 Songs” podcast (500songs.com).

The boats the regime is claiming are going from Venezuela to the US would need to refuel over 20 times to get to Miami.

They are lying to us.

What is the chance the restitution money intended for David Gentile’s victims will now make its way into his pardoner’s greedy pockets? 99%? 100%?

ATTN GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES: The VA sent out an announcement with a link for employees to self-report their disabilities. I wouldn’t do this if I were you. They’ll likely use it to discriminate against you.

C’est formidable! 🇫🇷

Agreed!

Republican Elite (last week): treason to tell military to not obey illegal orders & we would never give illegal orders

Republican Elite (yesterday): we stand by orders to kill unarmed survivors of our attacks clinging to boats

Republican Elite (today): military deserves all blame for illegal acts

Comic book panel showing a man and woman kissing in a convertible, with the caption “AND THEN, AS JOHN'S LIPS MEET MARY'S, A SUFFOCATING ODOR OF GAS RISES FROM HER!”

“And when a girl did decide on the boy she wanted to marry, there was a special way she let him know he was her choice…”

Since Admiral Bradley has a duty to follow the Constitution and the Uniform Military Code of Justice, he must testify-if subpoenaed-and state who ordered the “kill” strike

By throwing him under the bus, Karoline Leavitt just gave him incentive to cut a deal for immunity so he can do exactly that

I can’t promise that this is the first time a Canadian publisher of a beloved children’s book series has publicly condemned the bloodthirsty US secretary of defense’s use of its imagery to smirkingly defend heinous war crimes. I mean who can say.

Comic book panel of a woman saying “HOW CAN I CHOOSE ONE OF YOU WITHOUT HURTING THE OTHER? BUT THERE MUST BE A WAY! YES...THERE IS! I WILL MARRY THE ONE WHO BRINGS IN THE MOST WHALE TONNAGE IN A MONTH!”

“Grandma, you must have had so many boyfriends - how you decide which one to marry?”

“Well, granddaughter, in those days we used a special technique…”

This is awesome! Congratulations, Brian!!!

Pete Hegseth is the classic example of a weakling who's been given the power to indulge in his strong-man fantasies.

The same is true of tRUmp.

Pathetic little men seeking revenge on the world they think has wronged them.

"The collapse of a superpower into a regime of bullies and mean girls and comic-book guys explains much about why American democracy is on the ropes, reeling from the attacks of people who in a better time would never have been allowed near the government of the United States."
