YouTube video by Saturday Night Live Sean Spicer Press Conference (Melissa McCarthy) - SNL

She makes Sean Spicer look like an elder statesman.

Truly the Fyre Festival of strategic campaigns.

Noem blames ‘violent protesters’ for Minneapolis chaos under tough questioning in a Senate hearing Noem last appeared in Congress in December. But since then, President Donald Trump’s immigration agenda and its enforcement by Noem’s department have met fierce resistance in Minnesota.

Props to whoever at the PiPress chose this picture. Totally encapsulates how this woman gives not one fuck about her job, only the optics.

With Michael B Jordan's win last night, I think we need to revisit his Vanity Fair Secret Talent Theater episode.

Image illustrating the concept of "You can do anything, but not everything." Image is a square with a light blue background. It shows two rows of illustrated spherical jars, each row contains 5 jars. The top row shows a pitcher pouring water into the center jar, leaving the surrounding jars empty. The caption underneath reads "You can do anything..." The bottom row shows a pitcher emptying itself into the last of the five jars, and each jar has a shallow amount of water at the bottom. The caption reads "...but not everything."

You know who I'd actually like to hear from right now? Mitch McConnell.

I would like to see the fear & shame in his eyes because you know he realizes what he's done to this country and the world. Man is 8th Circle of Hell evil - Corrupt Officials are submerged in boiling pitch! - but not stupid.

So sayeth Cadet Bone Spurs. (Which I'm sure Baron has inherited.)

He must be having an Irretrievably Bad Hair Morning. Pure vanity. Have we seen the state of the hand yet?

things every single republican president of your lifetime has done

- started a war in the middle east
- completely destroyed the economy

That tweet wasn’t insight. It was projection.

When your agenda is unpopular and midterms look bleak, you create chaos and call it strength.

Playing with global conflict to distract from domestic failure is reckless — and innocent people are going to pay the price.

Oh absolutely. And this will not be overly expensive for me, at least. You can self-file for the name change with the court - after that it's just time consuming and I am lucky to have that time.

Yes, I know the SAVE Act may die in the Senate, but the Project 2025 Club in the Executive Branch scare the bejeezus out of me. These people do not give a crap about constitutional guardrails.

A male friend chastised me today after I told him I am pursuing taking my maiden name back. He told me not to submit to news-driven hysteria - my voting rights were secure, and I need to go out and touch grass.

All I could think was women have different takeaways from The Handmaid's Tale.

Yep.

I grew up on the Mid-Atlantic seaboard, but after 20+ years between Western WI & the Twin Cities?

Damn straight I'll workout outside when it's 40F, clear, and calm. Wearing nothing but a hoodie, leggings, & an ear band (mostly to keep my earbuds in). That's just perfect, balmy cardio weather!

stop calling us nazis just because we are invalidating IDs and rounding people up based on their skin color and putting them in concentration camps and sending them off to foreign gulags and using all that nazi imagery and banning books and dont forget about all the pedophilia. so just stop alright

The Constitution clearly gives Congress the power to spend taxpayer funds, and no law allows the president to halt if he feels some US states aren’t being “good stewards” of the money.

In case there’s any confusion on this, the Impoundment Control Act forbids it.

Taxation without representation.

I mean it's a nice thought, but not happening.

What if we just stopped paying taxes? Where there's a will there (might) be a way.

I Caught POLITICO and the New York Times Laundering Pink Slime "News" How the sexist backlash to AOC and Gretchen Whitmer at the Munich Security Conference led me to a scammy "local news" outlet pushing a coordinated right-wing narrative

Terrific piece on how the New York Times and Politico failed to spot pink slime and how it all plays into a reckless smear on AOC and Gov Whitmire.

I still miss our L&B on a daily basis, but I will be beyond thrilled to have walkable groceries again!

A Few Notes about My Former Best Friend the International Jewel Thief First off, we weren’t close. Not at all. Sure, there are dozens of pictures and videos of us hanging out and whispering to each other and enjoying each other’s company and celebrating each other’s bir...

People make such a big deal out of things.

Also, trans men and women - same applies here. Or people who changed their name to hide themselves from their abusers.

If you take the effort to change your name legally from what's on your birth certificate, usually there's a damn good reason. It shouldn't impact your suffrage.

To: Jeffrey epstein[jeevacation©gmail.com] From: roger schank Sent: Mon 1/4/2010 12:15:13 PM Subject: there is a simpler explanation about women and intelligence intelligence comes about in part from real focus (goal-directed (this is why you have the absent minded professor caricature) it is a rare woman who is not first and foremost focussed on what thinking and feeling about her hard to be brilliant if you are worrying if you look fat or why hates you or why you dont own a kelly bag roger schank http://www.rogerschank.com/

Relevant to today's conversation about AI's inherent sexism, here's an email from cognitive psychologist and early AI theorist Roger Schank, arguing to Epstein that women can't be truly intelligent, because they care too much about what other people think.

...so they could then put gerrymandered maps in place to keep the state houses.

If you need a multi-decade plan to dilute voting rights to establish hegemony, you know you suck. But it's somehow easier to do all this then be better people. It's vile.

But no woman should lose her right to vote because she took her husband's last name when she got married, or simply changed it for other reasons.

They know damn well they can't win unless they rig the game. It started back almost 30 years ago when the GOP laid out the plan to win state houses...

I will be attempting this as soon as tax season is over - I don't want to mess up my current returns. After that, though, I am not potentially losing my right to vote - because I'm sure they'll stop taking passports at some point - because the men of Project 2025 are scared of women.
