Wow, this picture from the tyrannical nation of Iran sure does look familiar, doesn't it?

SNL's Colin Jost on Iran: "This attack might be a bad idea, I don't know. I'm not really an expert on Iran. So let's hear from someone who can explain why we might have done it."

Epstein Fury is what everyone should be calling this illegal unprovoked attack.

Salty, Oily Drinking Water Left Sores in Their Mouths. Oklahoma Refused to Find Out Why. State regulators discovered strong signs of oil pollution, including high levels of salt and toxic metals, in one family’s drinking water. But for two years, they repeatedly delayed basic tests to fin...

The family’s water was undrinkable: It corroded taps. It withered plants. Their ice maker expelled clumps of salt.

But why was this happening?

For two years, Oklahoma delayed basic tests that could help them find out.

In California, very easy decision. In a place like Texas where one might be thinking "Gee, it sure would be cool if a Democrat actually won a statewide office" the calculus is different.

Hey, it's not forgotten, I just saw in the NYTimes today that trump is refusing to apologize.

yep, and the result of Nixon deciding it was in his best interest to align with the GOP with the racist Democrats in the south after the northern Demos made civil rights one of the party planks.

I have a very hard time believing that Crockett could win the general Texas vote, but I hope the primary is interesting and doesn't go scorched-earth destructive.

I have to admit, the fact that he told the New York Times that one of his greatest regrets was not sending in the National Guard to seize voting machines in 2020 ups my worry level.

The first rule of the Trump Game, played by politicians around the world, is you do not talk about the rules of the Trump Game. The object of the game is to pretend that the President of the United States is a normal, rational statesman, perhaps an eccentric one, but fundamentally someone who is acting according to some strategy that the rest of us might one day hope to fathom. On no account are you ever to admit that he’s nasty, vain, venal, capricious and obviously unaware that his own doctors are testing him for signs of dementia.

The 2026 round of the game got off with a literal series of bangs, as the US military attacked Venezuela and kidnapped its president. On Sunday morning we were greeted by the sight of Nicolás Maduro being led down a hall at the Drug Enforcement Administration in New York. The floor had been painted with the slogan “Rule of Law”, to allow Americans to walk all over it.

It's the only game that matters. My SKETCH of British politicians playing the Trump Game.

At least 80 Venezuelans who committed no crimes and posed no threat to the US were killed as part of this terrorist attack.

At least 80 people who posed no threat to the US whatsoever were murdered in Trump's kidnapping operation. The US has become a complete rogue state with a terrorist in charge.

Video rolling in of pretty massive airstrikes across Venezuela, plus low-flying helicopters which *appear* to be American.

I love Iain Banks's Culture novels and Musk would be first against the wall when Special Circumstances came visiting.

Definitely Andor! And rereading 'always Coming Home' by Ursula le Guin will always be a metal and spiritual tonic.

But Ken, is it a good idea to proclaim on social media that you expect that your followers are going to murder people who criticize you?

Trump was still way behind Bush in his body count until the statistics about the effects of destroying USAID came in.

Exactly what it says on the label: The Pope in 1982. He's wearing a black hat, dark RayBans, and looks like he's a member of the Blues Brothers.

What's from Chicago, hates Illinois Nazis, and is holy as fuck?

It's the Pope in 1982.

I'm not jealous because I have all the individual issues. Okay, and the Villains United trade.
