As a voter - i’m against it.

Working theory - they are dragging in the sketchiest representatives to the situation room for the world’s saddest episode of “this is your life”. No actual threats; but they will flash a hefty oppo-file.

The “we will give everyone checks” is one of the “stages of fucked up”. 1. Bullshit (everything is great) 2. Denial (everyone who says things arent great are fake) 3. Confrontation (it’s the dems fault) 4. Panic (checks for everyone!)

So - looks like this is a false alarm and the vote is still for tomorrow. Sigh

What?!?! All this f’n drama on the senate side. We will get on it “asap” says the speaker - and asap is - checks notes - a week from friday???

Wtf?

Geez - this fraud is out there floating the rebate checks? Oh yeah - they will show up any day until the mean old supreme court says tariffs are actually taxes and that will be the end of that. What a fucking scam

This Is exactly right.

Free advice to the soft 8. Say. Nothing. Every press hit like this makes you look deluded - not “wise”. You want people to forget you exist as fast as possible. But - if you want to be ”famous” - keep going cause you’re doing great.

Damn - look at this fucker run. I could swear he had the spinning legs thing going like when shaggy and scooby saw a ghost.

Senators can vote how they want to vote - but the soft 8 need to stop talking, like, now. The more they try to explain this and hold themselves out as some wise dealmakers the more foolish and out of touch they sound. The airline association said mean things to you - end at that.

It is clear that this crowd is booing him viciously. But at the mid point (i think) there is clearly ONE lady who is trying to turn the tide with an enthusiastic “wooo”. This is the “Booo-urns” moment of 2025. fearless journalists must learn if she was actually WH staff.

His people clearly don’t have his best interest at heart. He looks like absolute shit.

Without the shutdown, gop would have been out there promising to “find the real killers“ of the aca and would have gotten away with blaming insurance companies. At least now roughly 80 percent of voters know that it was this administration and gop congress that screwed them.

I simply cannot take Welker seriously. This is what Bryce Harper would call a “clown question”

The covered wagon is making a comeback! They laughed when i bought that fleet of “cuyahogas” - who’s laughing now, bitches!?

Where’s the money lebowski?

Oh my gosh this is a spooky accurate mcardle impression

Ah - we are stretching this out to 2027, now. Like a good GM talking about tanking for the draft so the team is worth watching in five years.

Are the rare earths here in the room with us now?

I am stealing “axiolitico” - this won the internet for me today.

He already is in a nursing home. They are slowly converting the whitehouse to a nursing home for one patient. Question is - who is actually running the show during snack time.

“It’s a vast land. vast. With many villages and there is a king - and the people are sad because they have been very oppressed. So - uh - you’re now in a tavern! What is everyone doing? go go go!”

i never understand what he is talking about.

This is how you fucking do it.

POTUS has nothing on his public schedule today until phoning it in to a couple of tele-rallies in NJ & VA. At 7pm. Recovering from a long 3 day weekend in Palm Beach while 42M Americans go to work & school without SNAP benefits. USA is being destroyed by a lazy, spoiled predator.

I believe there is an interview around the first slow horses series where oldman says that was the idea - to show a photo-negative of the “noble” Smiley since the slow horses series is about blowback from covert misadventures

I am consistently shocked at how bad Johnson is at the podium in these press conferences. Like ha was sent there with no training. My take - if house was in session GOP would be better in polling. They are punching their own dick.

See - this is the problem … everyone outside of the NYTimes editorial meeting sees that this man is terrified of leaving anywhere familiar. The sundowning is why we are building mar a lago on the potomac. If it is this obvious to the public it is also obvious to America’s adversaries.

10 months in and Trump is still running against joe Biden. Yo, mashed potato brains, you won, get over it.
