A prayer I learned at a Shabbat service recently:

May the One who is in all places
comfort you together with all who mourn.

And then tomorrow he'll be ranting at some ICE flack catcher because they aren't making enough arrests.

It's HARD working for a TACO.

Well, it's not like he has any personal stake in the hotel or restaurant industries....

Oh. Wait.

"Precision"? I think we all know what a euphemism that is.

But at least you laid off the old, tired "surgical strike" metaphor.

"An otter in a duck costume" is not a bad description of a platypus.

That's the problem: Fascists have zero qualms about using whatever powers they have against their political enemies.

Liberals, on the other hand, are paralyzed by those technocratic, bureaucratic structures -- which they consider "the rule of law."

SCOTUS just showed us who wins that fight.

Khanna: "Great, Elon. Glad to have you on board! But could you do me one favor when you're out campaigning for us? Just go easy on the Nazi salutes..."

They forgot Napoleon's old wisdom: "Never interrupt your enemies when they are making a mistake."

Musk defects to Russia, hires Snowden to hack the Epstein file.

Sure. Why not.

Probably not a bad idea to plant the thought ("Elon's gonna do a deal with the Dems!") in Donny's tiny little brain. But these are neolibs -- hopelessly naive. They really believe this nonsense.

Thunderdome: Two geezers enter; one geezer leaves.

Of course with these two geezers, it could take a while.

I'd say it was the stroke (it happens) but I have no way of knowing if he was always bullshitting his way upward as a purported progressive.

You'd almost think they were GOP officials in Florida, or something.

They would just abase themselves even more frantically.

Hitler threw one of his biggest early money men (Fritz Thyssen) in a concentration camp when he wouldn't cooperate any more.

The rest got the message.

They's already gotten what they want: Thousands of international students not knowing if they'll be able to start school in the fall or not.

How many will decide it isn't worth the risk and will apply elsewhere?

"what could the emotional IQ of these 2 clowns be?"

I'm not sure the scale runs into negative numbers like that.

Definitely had a "Raymond Shaw is the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful human being I've ever known in my life" vibe to it.

You have to admit, an army of cat feces is a pretty accurate description of what they are. Like a giant olive drab litter box.
