And I never heard a thing…

Coast Guard abandones plan to remove navigation aids in Maine?
WOWSA. Unbelievable, people may still have a voice. SPEAK OUT FOLKS.

I think ActBlue is killing the Dems. You give to one and get buried by every other Dem running for office. This is not a good thing. I am now relpying with a note “is there a way to contribe without ActBlue?” Doubt I will hear anything but can’t hurt.

Judge William G.Young

American Hero

Boy, he has really gone bonkers. Pam, put everyone I don’t like in jail! $50K in a bag? No problem. Fire US attorneys and replace with sycophants?Sure. Bad labor #s? Lets just bury the usual reports! Keep people in the dark!
Wow. Rome is burning.
Anything to keep those Epstein files under wraps.

Just cx’d HULU. Feels good. Bye bye

Let’s just boycott CBS & ABC and the trolls that advertise on them. Scumbags and wimps.

Old Orchard Beach police officer hired by town after checking DHS E-verify base grabbed by ICE. DHS claims town “recklessly relied” on DHS data base.
Really? Only reckless reliance by anyone is believing anything coming out of this administration.

ICE is claiming assaults on its officers are up 500% without providing numbers.
Presumably that includes “assaults” by Senator Padilla, Mayor Baraka, Rep. McIver, and NYC Comptroller Lander.
These alleged assaults supposedly justify agents dressing up as goons and thugs.
Pathetic.

So rumor has it that Trump fell asleep at his birthday parade.
Confirm? Deny?

Okay we’ll chalk it up to misprint . . .

Herbie Hancock or BBKing

There’s stupid … and then there’s Trump Stupid. That’s a whole other level of stupid.

I very much doubt TACO authored these latest immigration posts. He would do everyone a favor by deepsixing Miller, who clearing is machinating this heartless cruelty.

Too bad we can’t order up a review of Trump’s decline. Biden’s worst day I bet would end up being way better than Trump’s best.

Amazon purchase of a Corsori Air Fryer from Amazon couple months ago $98. Buy it again today? $199.99. Think all this noise from El Presidente doesn’t matter? Think again.
And, went back to get the details from Amazon and guess what? Seems to have disappeared. Might be time to get paranoid? Its here

Finally, SCOTUS reacts with plain words. 5th Circuit “Wake up and do your damn job!”

So Duffy says it is still safe to fly out of Newark? And then switches his wife from a Newark flight a flight from La Guardia…Corruption and Incompetence. What a clown show.

When I got a PhD in nineteenth-century political history, I really, truly never imagined I would have to find a way to explain to readers what an eggplant emoji means. (Wired reported more Signalgate Venmo accounts.) I yearn for the day when I can write about good, clean fun like tax policy again.

After hearing about the latest news regarding student loans I asked my wife whether she thought the current administration might ever do anything “nice” for anyone who isn’t rich or important.
Neither of us thought that would ever happen.
How sad is that?

These billboards line the streets around Albuquerque, New Mexico.

Finally...

Truly remarkable. I had to laugh (despite everything else) when you noted that this morning.

Okay, last week we accomplished incompetence. Now we have, as anticipated, corruption. Great combo.

Joyce Vance today:

“This is what happens when you confirm people to jobs they are neither suited nor qualified for and their education about the importance of what they do and how they do it needs to happen fast. There should be accountability for any people who intentionally violate the rules.”

The Atlantic (before today) in an article by Jonathan Rauch entitled “One Word Describes Trump” said what we now have is “patrimonialism”. The primary attributes of same he described as 1) incompetence and 2) corruption.
Rather prophetic to say the least. Worth a read!

Robert today mentions Jon Margolis and his idea of Project 250. Check him out along with his post “The Old Curmudgeon “. Worth more than a look!

The super PAC that Mr. Musk founded to funnel his fortune into Republican causes, America PAC, said on Thursday that it was offering $100 to registered voters in Wisconsin who sign a petition “in opposition to activist judges” or refer others to sign it.

This is legal? Why? Mush should be jailed.

A modern day carnie to my way of thinking…

Here's what the idiots in the White House utterly fail to comprehend. They and the US came out of that argument weaker. Zelensky came out stronger, with Europe rallying behind Ukraine more than before. They came out looking like petulant idiots; he came out looking like a leader with integrity.

How embarrassing…
