I once sang, “From where I stand you look like ants / and there’s an aardvark in my pants.” It wasn’t literally true at the time. I don't have anything to sell you... except hope! Ha ha jk. Past talent: soundcloud.com/johnpontoon

A few hundred notifications later, I notice that I omitted the word "to." This mortifies my kind.

No way she's appointed by Trump if she wore a shirt there.

The series as a whole belongs on a short list for greatest comics series of all time. Rucka and Brubaker writing with Michael Lark providing the bulk of the drawings, creators absolutely hitting it out of the park.

There’s a huge chance that CBP and ICE will appoint themselves special evictions officers to help with this disgusting injustice of their creation.

The lack of an evictions moratorium needs to end SOMEBODY’S political career in MN. Horrible.

exist, they also think everyone is a Sundance Kid quick-draw artist who can draw down and blast them while they have a bead straight at their victims. ACAB, yeah, and all cops are chicken-shits too. Unless they're lying about why they kill, which they also are.

presupposes that we live in a Mad Max world where crazed criminals might blast a cop/pseudo-cop any time. Who thinks this way? Republicans and cops, both afraid of their own fucking shadows and unable to think their way out of a cardboard box. On top of their fear of a danger that just doesn't

I will shoot them in a second."

In 2026, the president of the Nat'l. Border Patrol Council, Paul Perez, defends Alex Pretti's killers by saying they have to make decisions "in milliseconds." He says it's "really tough to blame the officer or the agents involved in this.”

In a home poker tourney in 2007 or so, I found out a guy there was a Chicago cop. Then, the CPD's big fad was shooting & killing unarmed Black women who were holding cell phones in their cars. I asked cop guy about the latest, and he said, "If I pull someone over and they pull out a cell phone,

Wouldn't it be something if Bari Weiss's idea of giving "the strongest voices on all sides of an issue" never ever included trans persons on trans issues? Respected (unbought) environmental scientists on environmental issues? Or broadly, progressives on political issues? Oh it's something already?

This gutless pissant speaks strongly when it's obvious which way the wind is blowing. Now if he could oppose EVERYTHING Trump does, like as an example every aspect of his foreign policy approach, we'd really be cooking. But that won't really happen until him and Schumer are removed as leaders.

We all know that the Melania movie is going to be a masterpiece of unintentional comedy. Solidarity with the rest of humanity not paying for a movie ticket, but we’ll all be poasting like crazy during our viewing on Amazon Prime or SyFy or wherever.

Such a person would have to be blisteringly ignorant, so much so that they believe wind turbines give whales cancer, that solar energy is useless because sometimes it’s cloudy, and that global warming doesn’t exist because sometimes it’s cold

Their ilk can never accept the judgment of history. So Vietnam wasn’t a case of the US intervening where they weren’t wanted, no, it was a war we would have won if not for the cowardly liberal press. Just wait until you hear their thoughts on the American Civil War!

I’ve come to a similar conclusion. I failed to call Schumer a useless scuzz-fuck, though.

NOW IT’S TOMORROW
Bovino is unplugged, the afterglow faded. What next, to save the USA? It’s actually pretty obvious: Schumer and Jeffries need to be ousted from the leadership of the Democratic Party. They are a ball and chain on the nation’s defense. Progress can only come in spite of them.

These fools can’t help but do this. Once they accept the up-is-down premise that ICE is only going after rapists, murders & (non-President) pedophiles, all resistance is enemy action.

A bird's-eye view of a former Auschwitz II-Birkenau camp showing a wide dirt pathway flanked by parallel rows of barbed-wire fences. Groups of visitors walk along the path, surrounded by the remnants of brick structures and barracks, now reduced to foundations. Green grass contrasts with the somber history of the site, as the path leads toward a guard tower in the distance.

Auschwitz was at the end of a process. We must remember that it did not start from gas chambers.

This hatred gradually developed: from ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.

Auschwitz took time.

Shut it all down. All of it. ICE, DHS, Border Patrol, the entire Republican Party, all the fascist billionaires, X, Tesla, Avelo, and every Democrat who supports them.

It's evil through and through.
