Comey gets to place into evidence everything the FBI has on Russian interference in the 2016 election, as well as all of the the Mueller Report evidence. It will be impossible to convict him, as Trump has to prove Comey willfully / knowingly knew his statements were false, if they even were.

The same holds true for climate change, where the DoD, at least so far, has to take sea level rise and climate-induced conflict seriously for purposes of mission readiness. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

When I can break away from work-work, I'm tuning in to the United Nations Climate Summit live webcast this afternoon. What a difference from Trump's tragic tirade yesterday. People coming together to solve a collective problem, collectively.

Seven of nine planetary boundaries now breached – ocean acidification joins the danger zone. "More than three-quarters of the Earth’s support systems are not in the safe zone, increasing the risk of destabilizing the planet." www.pik-potsdam.de/en/news/late...

"A significant speech—because of its stupidity. When historians tell the story of 2025, it will be about the passing of technological, economic, and political leadership from the U.S. to China. This address will be the easiest way to explain to people how such a mammoth shift happened so fast."

MAGA is fawning over Erika Kirk right now, but there's no way she can keep Charlie's audience. His bread and butter was sexualized humiliation of college girls — more "Girls Gone Wild" than doing politics the "right way." His followers won't hear it from a woman. www.salon.com/2025/09/24/d...

"Autistic adults exist. They don’t “grow out” of autism. They navigate work, relationships, and responsibilities just like anyone else—often in a world not built for them. Respect their reality."

Summary of Trump’s speech to the UN today: 1. Your countries all suck. 2. None of you know what you are doing. 3. The US is better at everything. 4. All because of me. 5. I’m right about everything. 6. You should listen to me & do what I say. 7. And give me lots of awards.

“You do not know anyone as stupid as Donald Trump. You just don’t.” ~ Annie Leibovitz

In 2026, every Dem going up against an incumbent Republican Senator or Republican Congressman/woman, will be running against a confirmed pedophile/child rapist protector.

To the Media: If all this were happening in another country, what would you call it?

#OpEd: "We can’t bury the deeper, driving forces behind why this is happening. This phenomenon is only possible because of the outsized power that state agents — ICE, police officers, prison staff — have always had to abuse and control women and victims' bodies." Read the full story here. ⬇️

"Trump is stupid. He doesn't play naive, he doesn't disguise himself as a fool. His stupidity has neither ulterior motives nor double bottom, Donald Trump means what he says. In Springfield they eat cats, in Beverly Hills you can only brush your teeth once a day." www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

Rational argument, debate, and reasoning, only work when all parties are, in good faith, seeking the truth or solving a problem. If those conditions are not met, you are wasting your time.

"You can have money piled to the ceiling but the size of your funeral is still going to depend on the weather." ~ Chuck Tanner, MLB manager

It's a sad day for America, when comedians are held to a higher standard than the President of the United States.

We're in the operational phase of Republican Fascism - they know there will be no repercussions.

"The past week has been Exhibit 1 that this country hates Black people, and will do everything it can to silence, harass, and even murder us. A white man killed another white man for reasons we still don’t know, with a gun he should not have had, but Black people are catching death threats.

Carbon offsets are worse than greenwashing - they are deliberately deceitful - a complete sham. I have often half-joked that there is one, lone tree in the Amazon that all these corporations are claiming as their carbon offset. www.forbes.com/sites/philde...

I actually like this idea - have a Dear Leader segment on every show every day, go way over the top with outlandish praise for things he isn't or hasn't done, parrot the exaggerated claims he's made. Include direct quotes, and try to keep a straight face.

There's so much to unpack -- his childish understanding of the world, his raw nerve of grievances, his sociopathy -- but I can't get past what a whiny, pathetic loser you'd have to be as president to stamp your little feet and cry that the media isn't "allowed" to be mean to you. Mom said so guys!

Today’s meeting of ACIP promoted false claims and misguided information about vaccines as part of an effort to limit access to routine childhood immunizations and sow fear and mistrust in vaccines. The American Academy of Pediatrics is stepping in to fill the gap. www.aap.org/en/news-room...
