Upstate Dem

If @thefreepress.bsky.social were honest to its mission statement, it would be criticizing Trump for this gross constitutional violation.

Maybe Homan would about their agent recruitment uses racial and other profiling: white angry Christian nationalist incel thugs.

Serves me right for asking a direct question.

My German ancestors arrived on our shores around 1614. They never got the memo.

What astounds me is Rubio’s self-debasement is for naught. He will never be the GOP nominee for POTUS. His reputation will be too toxic for corporate boards. The world is in on the secret that he’s a sycophant for power. And his delusion that if he abides Trump, good things will come. They won’t.

Now I know where I’ve seen that expression of Bondi’s. At a Kappa Kappa Gamma rush tea. Rush Chair Blondie turns her back on the less cool brunettes from Ohio.

A friend who was a three-star general doesn’t say anything because he’s been frightened into obeisance. All he has is his pension.

Exactly.

Trump’s Relentless Self-Promotion Fosters an American Cult of Personality

Cheung and other Trumpists say Trump is the most consequential politician ever.

Arguably, John C Calhoun, who led tens of millions of Americans to take up arms against fellow Americans, is.

Most everyone I listen to on MSNOW or read in the NYT, Atlantic, New Yorker, AP or Reuters are careful to distinguish between random, innocent mentions and complicit behavior.

I happen to think Williams is attributing MAGA’s defense of slavery to the left’s position on a range of issues that haves little to do with race. Trans, reproductive rights, due process, etc.

That guy is me.

Recall how outraged Republican senators were that Jack Smith got records of the time and date of phone calls.

Pam Bundy. Has a nice ring.

And Noem fired someone for forgetting her blankie.

If I were this pilot, I would have flown directly into turbulence.

I’m late to the game, but it’s done. I cancelled our Amazon Prime account.

Meaningless poll. 99% of Americans trust USA Today more that The Economist because 99% of Americans have never heard of the latter.

What Jesus would have done with a security detail? He’d have lived out his life as a carpenter, in everlasting obscurity.

And we’d have been all the poorer, with no crusades, no inquisitions, no burnings at the stake, no IRA, no Moral Majority, no Jimmy Swaggerts.

Sounds as if someone didn’t get his grant application approved.

Trump Administration Erases the Government’s Power to Fight Climate Change

I call on Democrats to lead the effort to prohibit property insurance companies from using climate change in their risk- and premium-setting.

Yep. Because one should not have to take a road test and pass a written exam on amber lights, red signs and broken white lines to vote.

“Samuel Adams, a Senator Johnson would like a word.”

Then pass a law that prohibits DHS from calling permission slips “warrants””!!!!

That’s only one whole milk.

Ought to be only one warrant, a judicial warrant.

“Pam has a way about her.”

The exception that proves the rule that Democratic states have better schools.

Alas, no resignations.

Tim Cook debased himself and damaged his Apple’s reputation to curry favor with Trump (by going to Melania premier and donating to ballroom).

Little good that did him.

The Purple People Eaters Prevail!
