my god, what a paragraph

(from tonight's @hcrichardson.bsky.social)

Your daily reminder that Trump absolutely can fund SNAP through contingency funds.

He absolutely can prevent 42 million Americans — including 20 million children — from going hungry next month.

He is choosing not to. Don’t let him lie his way out of this.

Wow

CBS News fired 8 on-air personalities in latest layoffs. All of them are women EXCLUSIVE: Multiple sources told The Independent that senior foreign correspondent Debora Patta was added to the layoff list following a last-minute change by editor-in-chief Bari Weiss.

"...a male correspondent was initially included on the layoff list but was removed after he appealed directly to the new editor-in-chief, Bari Weiss, leading to another female correspondent being added to the list at the last minute."

Nothing is inevitable. Effort is everything. Ignore the polls and run through the tape.

This is literally Nazi shit. This is what the Nazis did. If you support this, you are a Nazi, and if that makes you upset, then STOP BEING A FUCKING NAZI

Facebook • The Lamented 116,9K+ followers The Lamented The Lamented: where truth goes to die and sarcasm reigns supreme. Serving up satire, nonsense, and gloriously unreliable stories.

Disappointing how many journalists are sharing “hot” (ie, “he’s white”) photos of the Louvre suspect. The source? A SEVERELY bigoted & transphobic Facebook account called The Lamented, “where truth goes to die and sarcasm reigns supreme. Serving up satire, nonsense & gloriously unreliable stories.”

Actively reminding myself that being Senator requires not just good political views but also actual skills like managing a team, negotiating, building partnerships, being smart enough to see things coming like understanding how people might react to your tattoos and past social media posts

Please don't worry. I speak for all stoners when I say I will not waste my precious and expensive gummies on your child

IMO democracy becomes impossible in the absence of any social or political norms against lying.

Trying to blame the Dems cutting off SNAP (while sitting on billons of available contingency funds) as his boss bulldozes the WH to build a ball room like Saddam's palace, sends $40 billion to bail out Argentines, and eats "gold adorned" brownies in Korea is not gonna work.

Trump DOJ Indicts Congressional Candidate for Protesting ICE She and five other protesters face up to eight years in prison if convicted.

The regime’s attacks on dissent are escalating. Trump’s goal is to silence opposition through fear, but the American people will never submit to his corrupt rule. The best way to protect our rights is by continuing to exercise them.

A brave young woman asks JD Vance: “When you talk about too many immigrants here, when did you guys decide that number? Why did you sell us a dream? You gave us the path and now tell us we don't belong here? Why do you have to be Christian to be American?”

Reporters must stop accepting this. Options:

-Laughing at him. Long and hard (combine with others)
-"It's your job to be informed"
-"How can Americans take you seriously when you always claim ignorance?"
-"I've never heard a speaker claim ignorance so often"
-"Nancy Pelosi knew what was happening"

I like the part where he reaches through the door to open it.

AI sitcom accidentally a Lynchian fever dream. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and insane lament.

This was just posted by a CBS News producer on their Instagram stories.

Cost to fund SNAP and keep 42 million people from starving:

$100 billion

Cost of lost revenue due to tax cuts for the richest Americans in the top 1%:

$100 billion

One is decried as "welfare." One is not.

Why?

all the evidence points to Donny having had a recent stroke and the WH is covering that up. add to that the cankles, the rotting hand and fact that Donny couldn’t walk from one end of a room to the other without help. the only logical conclusion one can reach is that Donny is unfit for office."

yep, @jefftiedrich.bsky.social goes on to say:

"here’s why we should all be alarmed: we now know that when Donny went to Walter Reed, they gave him both an MRI and a cognitive test. you know who gets those two tests together? stroke victims, that’s who.

god, this is delightful

President Pudding Cup failed the fucking thing, didn’t he. they asked him to remember five random words, and he couldn’t. [...] he failed, and he knows it, and that why he has to keep talking about how hard it is to convince himself that nobody could have passed it."

@jefftiedrich.bsky.social nailed it:

"by the way, I have a theory about why Donny keeps yammering about how Crockett or AOC couldn’t pass the Montreal Cognitive Assessment. remember: with Donny, every accusation is a confession.

A friend was in town tonight and I was able to take him to the one and only 17th Street High Heel Race.

Yet another reminder that DC is better than Donald Trump could ever fathom.

If the current administration ever ends, many people in (and around) it will need to be prosecuted. From influence peddling to flat-out murder, their crimes seem to accumulate each and every day.
