Now THAT is a clever headline. Well done.

Really? The country, who is mainly responsible for the worst terrorist attack on American soil ever, and the man who ordered an American journalist to be dismembered, will receive nuclear technology from a deal our 'American' president made with them? Is that America first?

So proud of my friend and fellow Welsh Pembroke Corgi owner @andrewfeinberg.com for asking this question:

β€œWhat was the president doing with Virginia Giuffre for hours at Epstein's house?"

Seems like a good time for the Speaker of the House to swear in Rep. Grijalva.

TO THE ATTENTION OF THE MAGPIE OUTSIDE MY WINDOW:

Dear sir,

As a bird, it must be hilarious to make a dog lose his mind every day, at the same time, with nothing more than your beak.

However, some of us live *inside* the house with him.

Sincerely,

The lady who provides you roasted nuts

It's been 42 days since Adelita Grijalva was elected by the people of Arizona's seventh congressional district to represent them in Congress.

Mike Johnson still refuses to swear her in.

A tweet from Ron Filipkowski reads: β€œTrump Org’s income in the first half of 2024 was $51 million. In the first half of 2025 it rose to $864 million. A massive percentage came from foreigners. It should be the biggest scandal in the history of American politics. But few even care.”
Below the tweet is a Reuters image showing members of the Trump family and associates in suits cheering and raising their fists outside a building with a sign that reads Nasdaq. The caption reads: β€œInside the Trump family’s global crypto cash machine.”

β€œWe found over 35 cases in which the judges have specifically said what the government is providing…false information. It might be intentionally false information, including false sworn declarations time and again," says Ryan Goodman, law professor at New York University.

So, if it’s actually the case that the Kirk assassin’s roommate/romantic partner is trans, then a key piece of the case against the assassin is…thanks to the help of a transgender person? Did I get that right? And how is the Trump squad going to spin THAT?

Fired By The Post The Washington Post said it fired Karen Attiah over comments she made about white men in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s death, Status has learned.

Scoop: Status has obtained the termination letter The Washington Post sent to @karenattiah.bsky.social, in which it informed her that she was being fired for social media posts "about white men."

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion, after getting $1.2 trillion richer over the past year alone.

Meanwhile, the rest of the country is getting squeezed by tariffs and high prices for groceries, utilities, and health care.

The system is broken.

I wonder how many times media outlets intend to fall for this anonymously-sourced β€œWe know the killer’s ideology because it was written on the shell casings” shit before they begin to treat it with the basic level of skepticism a high school newspaper editor would exercise.

Why are we selectively demanding an end to political shootings but not school shootings like the one that happened right down the road? Why is it all not just gun violence?

The only question that needs to be asked and answered.

Is WHY? πŸ€”

And now what are WE gonna do about it?

Shut it all down…. All of it.

The left overwhelmingly has condemned the killing of Kirk and offered condolences to his family in this terrible time. The right has declared β€œwar” and demanded revenge before we even have a suspect in custody.

On March 27, 1981, 13 million Poles (effectively every adult worker in the country) failed to show up for work at 8 AM after union activists in Bydgoszcz were beaten. In the face of that kind of solidarity, the state could do little but sputter.

Anyway, thinking about Texas A&M.
