You're absolutely rightβ€”that was not a command post, that was an elementary school. Those were not military leadersβ€”they were schoolchildren. I said the opposite, and that's on me.

Can the tariff judge please make him refund that too?

Oh that's the guy who shot himself in the leg in a park and claimed it was a war wound from Afghanistan. And so today he broke a peacefully protesting Marine's arm. You suck at news, CBS.

I was thrown out of a horse-drawn carriage into six lanes of traffic, in my wedding dress. Still have the scar tissue under my shoulder blade!

Forgot to mention: MT Sen. Sheehy is of course the guy who pretended he was wounded in Afghanistan when really he'd shot himself with his own firearm in a park in Montana. That also was never fully explained. Montanans seem to have a high tolerance for crazy. 6/

You know, I teach deescalation and it never occurred to me that we ought to be covering "How to break a peaceful protester's arm."

Just ran across this ad from 1973 of Johnny Cash telling NFL fans to conserve energy because it was the patriotic thing to do and man this country fell a long fucking way in 50 years. youtu.be/mAjECaAmbFY?...

NOEM: I would disagree with the judge

CROCKETT: I'm sure you would, but can you tell me whether or not you have a law degree?

NOEM: A what?

CROCKETT: A law degree

NOEM: No I do no-

CROCKETT: Okay

Also, as any actual creative could tell them, if you don't do the slog-work yourself, you lose the ability to HAVE "good ideas." Tedium is often where they come from!

I really hope she has a plan going forward (I wanted her to jump districts, stay in the House, chair some committees in the 2027 Dem majority, and then move into a Dem presidential administration). We can't afford to let her talent to go to waste.

"Show us the safety data that show that it’s OK for a teenage girl to drink an iced coffee" sure sounds like "We want these teenage girls to be healthy when we drag them off to Pedophile Island."

RFK Jr. wants Dunkin’ to prove drinking its iced coffee is safe - The Boston Globe The warning comes as Kennedy is leaning heavily into his agenda to improve American diets.

This moron has no idea how much of a third rail this is. If he goes through with a public fight with Dunkin he will never live this down. In the words of my people "fuck ya motha."

It’s just such a silly argument. If people want to bring the country leftwards but think religious people shouldn’t be part of it they’re ignoring everyone from Martin Luther King to 3/4 of places where a country has moved leftward

Record Democratic early voting turnout in Texas for primary Democratic early voting in Texas is up 126% compared to 2024.

OK, early voting was a rout: For the first time in more than two decades, Democrats outnumbered Republicans in early voting across Texas, a development that is energizing the party ahead of what could be a pivotal election night. www.khou.com/article/news...

And since R voters might have skipped the Governor's race thinking Abbott was a lock, let's look at the AG race: 2,025,112 Dem voters versus 2,044,777 GOP--less than 1% difference. I haven't seen a final tally of D vs R voters yet. Still, this seems like a pretty big deal!

2018 Texas primary turnout: Once again, Republicans outvoted Democrats Vote counts Tuesday night once again showed how Texas is a red state. Despite an apparent early rush to the polls for Democrats, Republicans ended up casting more ballots in the 2018 primaries.

Going by the numbers on KXAN's election results page, 2,145,007 Texans voted in the Democratic gubernatorial primary, versus 2,127,326 in the Republican. When was the last time Texas Dems outvoted Republicans in a primary? In *2018*, Rs outvoted D's by 50%!

Post DOGE I think of redistributive taxation far less in terms of redistribution itself than in terms of taking away social-political nuclear launch codes from people who can’t be trusted with them.

There's been a lot of debate within the Democratic establishment about what rhetoric to use via ICE.

Well, an incumbent doesn't lose by 48 percentage points very oftenβ€”and her vote on collaborating with ICE was the defining issue here.

He ran a good campaign and sounds as if Crockett did not. I'm delighted that Paxton and Cornyn will have to spend the next three months setting cash on fire and clutching Trump's decaying corpse to their bosoms.
