We could’ve had this in March. Schumer could’ve extracted real concessions rather than giving Trump everything he wanted while rubber stamping fascism. But he gave it all away for nothing.

Frankly I think it's good that Senate Democrats for once refused to play ball with nihilist fascists who want the country to burn. I'd much rather see them go on offense and make an affirmative case for their partial role in the shutdown than hide and hope voters blame the other side.

Targeted attack on a dockside restaurant in North Carolina. Three dead. Suspect a former Marine sniper in Iraq and Haiti who tried to sue the US govt for “genocide against straight men by the LGBQT community.” Flags at half mast? Endless op-eds? Victims’ faces on coins? www.cnn.com/2025/09/28/u...

In 2021, James Comey said Donald Trump should not be prosecuted after leaving office. He said the next attorney general must ‘foster trust.’

It’s sad that a tyrant was given the federal executive power to abuse in the U.S. There are a lot of people who are responsible for letting it happen. There are too many of them to list. I wouldn’t know where to begin.

This is the most aggravating and pathetic way to lead a minority party. I am so sick of Chuck Schumer. I want him out. Where is his primary opponent?

Bombshell ‘Wall Street Journal’ Investigation Finds Tyler Robinson Once Had Trans Uber Driver

A strong possibility is that this shooter, like other similarly motivated mass shooters, is a nihilistic accelerationist. They explicitly coach each other to leave cryptic, conflicting political messages behind. The goal is to get both sides pointing fingers, to raise tensions all around.

I bought an old Sony STR-6120. They say John Lennon owned one of these in New York. I’m checking it out before I hook it up to anything, but it looks good so far. Here’s the insides from the top, bottom, and front.

The Free Press has devoted the last 2 days to Charlie Kirk hagiography. Soon the same editorial sensibility could be shaping CBS News.

MAGA chuds are all over Bluesky, trying to provoke people into replying with comments they can use to attack the site. It’s important to refuse to engage with these bad faith trolls. Don’t give them what they want. Block them and move on.

Here are some tweets from Charlie Kirk over just the last few days. They are an impressive mix of hatred towards: Blacks, immigrants, women, immigrants, Muslims, LGBTQ, academics.

My 19-year-old son just showed me the video. It is horrific. I do not recommend it.

They'll turn him into a martyr to justify their repression.

Charlie Kirk, just another fascism loving asshole.

Cuomo is now threatening to sic his champion Trump on New York City if it elects Mamdani.

I heard someone say this, and I agree: The lesson from the Holocaust was not just “never again.” And it wasn’t just “never again to us.” It was “never again to anyone.“

Remember all those rallies Democratic lawmakers spoke at outside federal agencies facing illegal DOGE cuts? They stopped going because the advocates who organized those rallies were putting lawmakers on the spot about not voting for Trump's budget. Can't have that!

It’s a total mystery

Sorry, but the Epstein files are not the most important issue. Release them, sure. But if you think that these files are gonna contain the secret ingredient to bring Donald Trump down, you’re wrong.

I hope I’m being shadow-banned because my comments really suck.

RatFucKerJr is a eugenicist who pretends he’s an expert when he’s not. Experts are scientists who follow the science. People who are not experts listen to experts. Like every lying fascist manipulator, RatFucKerJr tries to twist reality to put himself in control. He lies about how expertise works.

Never give up the fight for a pluralistic, egalitarian, multicultural, multiethnic, multiracial, democratic society. It’s the only way. PEMMMD is an acronym for this kind of society if you need an acronym.

The di minimus exemption sounds small, because that’s what di minimus means. But taking away the di minimus exemption on goods is going to be a big deal. It’s going to disrupt businesses, increase costs for consumers, and outright deprive some business and consumers of goods, materials, and parts.

this is who runs this account

Donald Trump is waging a fascist takeover of the United States. Democrats are responding the only way they know how: by heeding the advice of the wonks who helped get them into this situation — and whose advice is to avoid discussing what Trump is doing. More: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

It was a shake down. The CEO “walked in wanting to keep his job and he ended up giving us $10 billion ... So we picked up $10 billion," Trump said on Friday.

Kamala Harris at her closing campaign rally: "Donald Trump intends to use the United States Military against American citizens who simply disagree with him."

This video was published three weeks ago, but there’s so much happening, I’m just now seeing it. It’s under eight minutes, and I recommend watching it.

No one should ever trust the United States again.

Trump vs. Volodymyr Zelenskyy: Pres. of Ukraine; Keir Starmer: P.M. of the UK; Emmanuel Macron: Pres. of France; Friedrich Merz: Chancellor of Germany; Giorgia Meloni: P.M. of Italy; Alexander Stubb: Pres. of Finland; Mark Rute: NATO Secretary General; and Ursula Von Der Leyen: European Comm. Pres.

My Fellow Americans: Are you really my fellow Americans? What’s wrong with you?

Arrhenius' Rule: Everything that's going to hell will go twice as fast for every 10° Celsius increase in temperature.

Miraculously, he didn’t hit a single CDC employee! But he did kill David Rose, the police officer who responded, who leaves behind two children and a pregnant wife. I can't help but imagine the vast attention this case would have received if the race of the shooter and the victim were reversed.

Remember back in March 2025 when Schumer said it was better to give Trump a deal on the government funding bill and so that’s what Schumer lead Democrats to do? Seems wrong in retrospect. Seems it would’ve been better to shut this government down back then. Now its guns and thugs are turned on us.

Trump said he would end the war in 24 hours…and Putin increased the intensity of his attacks.

The Norwegian Nobel Committee is responsible for the Nobel Peace Prize, and it could have prevented Trump’s Alaskan capitulation to Russia if it had announced earlier—as soon as Trump started talking about wanting that prize—that there’s no way in hell Trump is getting it. There’s a lesson here.

On the bench today for inspection, testing, and cleaning the controls.

And…scene.

I used to like to take a toke and get high, but now I just like to stand up quickly after sitting on the floor for a few minutes.

Trump is putting the military in the streets of US cities, throwing people in concentration camps, and shredding the constitution, and we have Senate Democrats out here talking about giving him a Nobel Prize.

Sorry about that last skeet. I deleted it. I might be dyslexic.

There are 15m Americans old enough to remember that. One of them is Marv Levy, now 100 years old, whose Buffalo Bills famously lost the Super Bowl 4x in a row. A sportswriter once asked him if the SB was a must-win. “No, it’s not a must-win,” Levy said. “World War II was a must-win.” So is this.

Thinking about how life offers lots of “second chances” until it stops offering them. Wondering if we had our last “second chance” in 2024 when we passed it up.
