Some people get annoyed by my coverage of Thiel's Antichrist stuff.

But I'm trying to short-circuit an obvious memetic strategy by making it seem ridiculous and played-out as quickly as possible.

Whoever frames first, wins.

Stay focused.

The bombshell Wall Street Journal story timing—that the Administration knew in May that Trump was in the Epstein files—checks out with the Musk-Trump feud.

Musk clearly heard about it. And his first tweet about Trump being in the Epstein files was June 5.

And even thought that sort of felt like old news, for the White House, that was Musk revealing something that had only recently been confirmed (and that clearly had hopes to bury).

So it was a far more brutal tweet than we realized at the time.

And the reason why Musk took it down two days later.

With minimal debate last week, the Ohio Senate advanced a measure effectively prohibiting ranked choice voting. ‘Effectively’ because state lawmakers actually can’t ban the practice. Instead, Senate Bill 63 threatens to withhold an important stream of state funding.

@weeknightmsnbc.bsky.social Not liking this hour at all. The conversation isn’t fluid. The program lacks in-depth research and novel thinking that Maddow and O’Donnell provide (Reid,too).

I've always loved Paul Rudnick's wit.

Another loser appointed!

The first Pope Leo negotiated with Attila the Hun and turned him back from sacking Rome.
I hope Pope Leo has the same fortitude for the bandit leaders today.
Prayers and hope in a dark time.

Robert Francis Prevost will be the next pope and has taken the name Leo XIV.

An American Pope. I hope he promotes unconditional love and service, especially towards the poor and marginalized. Let's pray.

Meet the 64-year-old retired social worker who went viral after being forcibly removed from her representative's town hall.

The man who requires loyalty pledges from everyone in his midst replied, "I don't know," when asked if he has to uphold our Constitution.

So basically our core biomedical agenda has gone from cancer and heart disease research with major investments in alzheimers/dementia research to jacking up the sperm count of teenage males and a new wild goose for the 'hidden causes' of Autism Spectrum Disorder.

Injuries???

Odd, how the United States doesn't have enough money to give sick veterans healthcare, impoverished seniors Social Security, or hungry schoolkids lunches, but it does have enough money to pay a Central American dictator millions to torture American residents in his brutal concentration camp.

50 Senate Republicans voted to confirm Pete Hegseth.
52 Senate Republicans voted to confirm RFK Jr.
53 Senate Republicans voted to confirm Pam Bondi.

So far as I know: Having seen their performance, none has expressed regret for their vote. None has called for any of them to resign or be fired.
