Heartbroken by the news. I was blessed to be able to cover War Pigs and get your recognition. Ozzy Forever 🤘🏿

How cool is this! Doug Bates donated to our Open Source Program Office one of the original CDs for R signed by the core developers.

Democrats warn GOP is weakening filibuster as Senate moves to nullify California’s electric vehicle mandate | CNN Politics The Republican-led Senate moved Wednesday to overturn key Biden-era waivers allowing California to set its own vehicle emissions, a major blow to that state’s effort to regulate pollution from cars an...

I’m old enough to remember when Senate Dems were told they should use the nuke option to expand court and they were like, “we don’t want to do that because you can’t come back from it and our republican colleagues are people of moral integrity who wouldn’t do this to us…”

Reporter: I was watching your face during the meeting.. what was going through your mind when the President talked about erasing the border..

Carney: I’m glad that you couldn’t tell what was going through my mind

Reporter: Oh I could

Elon Musk: “I work 180 hours a week and have 14ish kids. Why can’t everyone else work 180 hours a week and have 14ish kids?”

The pile of 100 billion dollars in the corner of his bedroom: “I dunno man, it just doesn’t make sense…”

People spend a lot of time wondering why the left is worse at using independent media to control the national narrative.

A useful exercise is to ask why the left is also worse at selling snake oil and pyramid schemes, because I think the reasons are basically exactly the same.

The kids who didn't pay attention in civics or history classes voted to give us a dictatorship.

duck season / rabbit season : )

If the new tariffs stay in place for multiple years, and are enforced and inflationary, and DOGE continues to cut and fire , we will be in a far worse situation than 2008

Gerber: He's actually proposing that I would get a tax cut of all people, which I don't want to fund these tariffs that effectively will bankrupt the lower and middle class of America.

Bingo

Lol, so we've inadvertently declared both the EU and Taiwan as countries. Bravo 👏

I'm sure the PRC is going to love that we're implicitly breaking away from the One China policy while slapping mainland China with a 54% combined tariff /s

So good. 🤡

Trump just handed Democrats everything they need to flip the mids and get the majorities needed to impeach and convict. Dems shouldn't take it for granted tho. We need better leadership in Senate. And we need a DNC who will throw everything against the wall—fight for EVERY seat! Let's do it to it!

Agreed. This is not a good sign.

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

Sondheim, born today in 1930.

He is missed. 💔

Kaufmann: DOGE claims to have found Social Security loans going to 11 year olds and under. It's a survivor benefit annuity to young children whose parents have passed. That's the problem billionaires without a clue doing a job they don't understand

Joe Gallina: If you could speak directly to Donald Trump, what would you tell him?

Gov. JB Pritzker: What does Vladimir Putin have on you?

every day is the anniversary of Elon Musk being wrong about something, but today really is one of the special ones

Walz: For three days on Fox News, you know the bung holes in the morning talking about, “Walz doesn’t even know who the leader is.” They know who their leader is because their lips are chapped from butt kissing one person

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable.

Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes.

Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

Get in loser, we're tanking the economy

An excellent summary explaining how ridiculous it is for anyone to be OK with what happened during the February 28th Oval Office meltdown.

It would be helpful if more people understood renewable energy is actually an extremely disruptive technology and the reason monied interests are trying to make folks hate it is that they are the ones which will be disrupted.

Crockett: When you're at war, you’re not worried about your outfit. If he was walking around in the fanciest suits, I'm sure that they would accuse him of taking our dollars and spending it on his wardrobe
