Commander in Thief anntelnaes.substack.com/p/commander-...

Guy who tried to overturn a fair election and deprive Pennsylvanians of their votes thinks others "hate the military". Perry should be sharing this idiocy with a cell mate, not a podcaster.

“Praise Jesus.”

An ice sculpture of the word “Democracy” has been placed on the National Mall in direct view of the U.S. Capitol as a vanishing reminder, its creators said, of rapidly eroding rights and an existential threat to the freedom on which America was founded.

The documentary based on Peter Harnik's book, From Rails to Trails, is now available to stream on the PBS App and at buff.ly/Cc73ftC! It tells the story of a 60-year struggle to convert abandoned railroads into trails for cycling and walking. Enjoy!

Now I really have to know what happened to ANGER1

Trump Administration: ”You bitched about the cost of food at the grocery store, so what’s a little listeria when you‘re saving a dollar per frozen meal? Whiny bitches.”

The idiocy of the #GOP funding cuts aside, @pennstateuniv.bsky.social couldn't find $3.5m/yr to keep @radio.wpsu.org.web.brid.gy going for 5 years? The largest alumni network in the world can't raise that amount to save critical media and emergency services? www.inquirer.com/news/pennsyl...

It should have been the lead story in every paper in America: A president all but declaring war on the 3rd-largest US city But there's an even better angle to the Chicago story. Leaders, everyday people aren't having it. Trump picked the wrong fight My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/comm...

Agree And not a single member of frightened GOP Senate/House has dared speak up (Hey J Barrasso, Georgetown BA/MD guy. Hey M Lee, you "care" about states' rights. Hey T Tillis /J Ernst, you're not running again. Hey S Collins, with your "concern." Hey R Paul, you're a big libertarian. Hey...)

Covid and the paranoid, submoronic resistance to basic public health initiatives killed hundreds of thousands who could have survived. But raw stupidity is the pathogen that is going to kill millions of Americans.

This is starting to feel even more suspicious www.aol.com/jd-vance-fle...

Harrisburg can't find $$$ to run your bus yet the state is giving up to $1.6 billion (!) to Shell's polluting, climate-crushing plastics plant that's a jobs bust and may even be for sale after less than 3 years Inside Pa.'s biggest boondoggle, ever. My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/shel...

1/3 “MLB's new TV rights deal spits in the face of the sport's most loyal fans“ Say goodbye to “Sunday Night Baseball” on ESPN. Say hello to being required to buy ESPN’s new streaming service before you can have the privilege of paying for MLB service(s). @mlb.com @espn.com #baseball

Sunday in the park with Donald

What Vladimir Putin wants Donald Trump must deliver. It's the deal they made. It was great knowing you Alaska. www.ft.com/content/e1e4...

That’s how you do it! #studentjournalism

In case you were wondering, yes, the administration thinks it’s hilarious that Trump supporters are too dumb to realize that tariffs are a tax hike on them.

Pennsylvania should have ended its government monopoly of liquor retailing decades ago. Just another example of the antiquated laws still on the books in the Keystone State. #PLCB #statestores #alchohol @governor.pa.gov www.inquirer.com/news/pennsyl...

Without Hulk Hogan, Peter Thiel would not have been so effective in media-suppression Without Peter Thiel, we wouldn't know today's Musk or JDV Without Musk, we wouldn't have DOGE (and would still have Park Service, State Dept, NIH, etc) So we note Hulk Hogan's passing, as we might Roy Cohn's.

“Bove fired roughly two dozen federal prosecutors who worked on the criminal cases brought against the more than 1,500 people charged in the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection at the U.S. Capitol that Trump helped to incite. Strike one.” — The Inquirer Editorial Board

Tom Nichols: "Donald Trump ran, in order of importance, for three reasons: stay out of prison, get revenge on his enemies, enrich himself and the people around him by every means possible. Everything else is just window dressing."

Remember what these traitors did.

Just when you forget about him, Lindsey Graham reminds you what a loathsome and dishonest politician he is.

The mystery artists responsible for a statue on the National Mall mocking President Trump last week have done it again — this time featuring clips of the president dancing.

"Philadelphia is an absolute pit of an airport..." Legacy US carriers = old & poorly maintained aircraft, crappy food if any, bad airports, and fees aplenty. That's why we skipped @americanair.bsky.social & @phlairport.bsky.social for #lacompagnie to #Europe viewfromthewing.com/dripping-cei...

Looking forward to seeing the updated survey results in January 2029.

Three of the best journalistic entities that are covering all this nonsense right are a parody newspaper, a teen mag, and a magazine for nerds, and I am grateful for them (The Onion, Teen Vogue, and Wired)

We have long passed the point when impeachment is justified
