@billscher.bsky.social why did you say “if you’re seen being asleep at the switch, that’s the type of thing that can ruin a presidency”. 9/11 saved the Bush presidency. What act of terror has hurt a president politically?

Anyone else think it’s wild Ken Martin has apparently survived the autopsy scandal? I would have sworn he would have been dropped.

@jvl.bsky.social @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social I like Mike Murphy’s idea- if you donate $1000 to the Dem candidate in 28 and they win- you get to swing a sledgehammer at the ballroom and take a chunk of it home.

This dude got a better deal with Iran.

Dealing with Iran Jimmy Carter>Trump

Remembering March 15, 44 BC for no reason whatsoever.

I’m not going to touch any cash for 2 years. Venmo and PayPal and credit/debit cards only.

The Iran is what happens when the ultra rich face no consequences. Trump is once again declaring bankruptcy. He made a huge mess. Is walking away from it and expects someone else to clean it up. He’s done it a dozen times before. Why wouldn’t it work out for him this time?

@jvl.bsky.social what would you say the chances are of the tariff money (that could be a check to every American) becomes part of the seed money for the Board of Peace? Trump made that money, he thinks it’s his. And he’ll have another 10 billion for suing himself.

@atrupar.com has footage from Alex Pretti’s camera been made public yet? Do we know what happened to his camera phone after the shooting?

@sarahlongwell25.bsky.social Sarah, where are you putting the old “intellectual” folks? Commentary, National Review, Dispatch? I’m uncertain what to think of them any more. Or are they even worth following as they have zero influence in the Republican/Right/Maga/AmFirst/conservative movement?

@ali-online.bsky.social @robzacny.bsky.social @austinwalker.bsky.social @nataliewatson.bsky.social There are Holiday Special call backs in Andor season 2… please folks, it’s time

I’m taking the afternoon off because I’m sick. My neighbor who works nights has his girl friend over. A breakup fight shouldn’t last more than a half hour. But they’ve been going at each other for 2.5 hours now. Can I knock on their door and tell them to wrap it up? I’m tired.

This is Watergate times Pedophilia.

@jonfavs.bsky.social @jonlovett.bsky.social @podsaveamerica.crooked.com I think you all were too hard on Caroline Levitt and the bathroom- so please be honest- where’s the best place to poop in the White House complex?

@sonnybunch.bsky.social @samsteindc.bsky.social you missed a huge point about the Ballroom discourse. It’s going to be named “The Trump Ballroom”. There will be 2 rooms in the White House named after presidents, “The Lincoln Bedroom“ and this monstrosity.

It’s going to be called “the Trump Ballroom”. It a way for him to leave a permanent mark on the White House. Lincoln only has a bedroom. The biggest single room in the White House will be named after him. I’m not certain I want to be an American anymore.

I feel like this might be useful this weekend

I’m getting more okay with the Idea of a national divorce. Trump is now promising to hurt the states that have never voted for him. Why on earth should they put up with that?

@jvl.bsky.social you should do a Quick Look at the 1876 Centennial- an absolute disaster due to Custer’s Massacre being the headline for that day. And the 150 year debacle that lead to Calvin Coolidge being a one term president. Do you think next year could be any better? Do you remember the 200?

@bdsmovement.bsky.social why is Disney still on the list? And a priority at that. Gadot and Haas’ movies came out and they bombed. Neither have any upcoming projects with Disney. What is Disney supposed to do to be taken off the BDS list?

Wikipedia now has Chuck listed under “Political Martyrs”. May I suggest that they add this dude as well.

It’s fascinating on the conservative and Republican subreddits right now. There is much cursing and disgust with democrats, leftists and liberals. We don’t have anything on the killer yet, but they are whipping themselves into a fury. 1/x

Every single person saying political violence has no place in this country has no freaking idea what country we are in. We are a country born of political violence. Our leaders and representatives and activists have violence done to them constantly. What happened today is quintessentially American.

@sonnybunch.bsky.social Andor is about to win a bunch of Emmy’s. It might take a while to get through the 2 seasons, but ya’ll should do Andor for movie night.

@thebulwark.com are you going to go live or have some sort of +update on the meeting the president just had?

@thebulwark.com the emergency meeting tomorrow between Chancellor Merz, President Macron Prime Minister Starmer, President Stubb, Prime Minister Meloni, NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte and EC President Ursula von der Leyen Zelynsky and trump worth an all hands emergency show?

@timmiller.bsky.social your last episode turned me into a full communist. Millionaires are smarter or work harder. They are degenerate gamblers who got lucky. He admitted he just placed a hundred bets every year, and some pay off

A sad story about a woman who was with a horrible, abusive boyfriend. She finally found the courage and tossed him out. He made a huge scene and the police had to get involved. A few years later, she took the boyfriend back. He was worse than ever and killed her. Linda like Trump and USA

@timmiller.bsky.social I thought it was Tony Hawk. Can you interview Tony Hawk?

@timmiller.bsky.social Benny Johnson is riding the “Obama going to prison” story HARD. I know BJ won’t mind getting the shaft from Trump. But how long will the rest of MAGA just accept blue balls? Obama has presidential immunity.

Do you like to vomit? Here’s Trump’s “Look of the year” modeling contest. Several of these girls said Trump came in their changing room. They are 14-16 years old youtube.com/watch?v=2_Lm...

@sarahlongwell25.bsky.social you really should give Pelosi a little grace. She was a major target on Jan 6. And her husband was nearly killed in that hammer attack. Depape, the attacker was trying to kidnap and interrogate Pelosi about QAnon. She knows this gets real ugly real fast.

@jvl.bsky.social Where is the “JVL is always right” t-shirt on the merch store? www.thedailybeast.com/trump-79-had...

@jvl.bsky.social I’ve never looked forward to a Next Level more

@sarahlongwell25.bsky.social Hey Sarah, how much does the. Surviving an Assassination attempt play into Trump’s rise and win in 2024 ? Because I thought he won right after that happened. It’s just too Messianic…I think he would have beaten ANYONE after that

So, did Epstein have the pee tape?

@atrupar.com so the pee tape is real?

@jvl.bsky.social go listen to your secret pod on Nov 7, 2024. You get a JVL is always right award!

@strictscrutiny.bsky.social We will have 2 vacancies on the Supreme Court open up next year before the midterms. Alito and Thomas will retire within weeks of each other. And they will retire relatively close to the midterms. They will be replaced with Justices Aileen Cannon and Matthew Kacsmaryk.

A sad look at our future: Justices Alito and Thomas will retire within weeks of each other late summer next year. And they will retire relatively close to the midterms. They will be replaced with Justices Aileen Cannon and Matthew Kacsmaryk.

@jvl.bsky.social I have some betting action for you. Alito and Thomas will announce their retirements within a couple weeks of each other and they will announce just a few weeks before the midterms. And Trump will get Justices Aileen Cannon and Matthew Kacsmaryk.

If you can’t vote for the first 18 years of your life, you shouldn’t be allowed to vote for the last 18 years of your life. As that’s unworkable as no one knows when they will die the solution is clear- let children, toddlers, and babies vote. I wanna see the campaign ads!

What a statesman

It would be such a shame if the Iranians next target was Mar-a-Lago.

Each point of light had a protest yesterday.

Hey, so, buying a gun isn’t a crazy idea, now, right?
