Help me, Toronto Blue Jays, you're my only hope.

Wait until he hears that Reagan didn't trust the Russians.

Barefoot Chicago Blackhawks pajama pants guy telling off jackboots is feeding my soul today.

Because we have news media.

Stop using the word trade “deal.” It’s completely inappropriate. Mark Carney, who is a mensch and a scholar, never uses this word. It’s “partnerships,”agreements,” accords.” This is the language of international diplomacy.

Watching an NBA game, 50% of the ads are for gambling. Gambling company ads all over the arenas. Gambling-related arrests of NBA players and NBA coaches are today’s sporting news headlines.

He can't legally do that. But nobody is stopping him So he's going to do it.

Carney: But this decades-long process of an ever-closer economic relationship with the United States is now over. And as a consequence, many of our former strengths as a country—more particularly, our economic strengths based on close ties to America—have now become our vulnerabilities…

trump is now admitting he is demolishing the entire East Wing of our White House. The East Wing will be rubble by Friday. No one in power is stopping him.

This is gone now. The East Wing lobby two years ago.

#DubNation #NBA Except for one call, the Warriors at Lakers was very well-officiated last night. Probably the best reffing I have seen in a few years. I hope the Association takes note. (My little brother says that’s because LeBron was not playing last night.)

The tear down without proper approvals is a classic New York real estate move although I have to admit that most of the time the developer owns the property before ripping it down. A great metaphor on what he has done to our country.

He’ll keep tearing it down because he can’t stop himself. It’s heartbreaking — the loss of a symbol of our country. On 9/11, passengers on Flight 93 fought to keep a plane from hitting the White House. He’s doing what the terrorists could not.

Brian Schatz: "This is not about money. There is enough money to bail out Argentina with $20b. There is enough money to purchase a brand new aircraft for $173m for Noem. There is enough money to renovate the WH ballroom. What there isn't enough money for under this Republican government is you."

I'm in Chile and everyone here who still has PSTD from watching people getting stuffed into trucks by the military during the Pinochet era is like, there no way in hell I'm going to the U.S. even for 5 minutes.

American Airlines To Phase Out Complimentary Cabin Pressurization https://theonion.com/american-airlines-to-phase-out-complimentary-cabin-pres-1819576190/

I wonder how many recent Russian arrivals are on the White House demolition crew. Probably not as many as will be on the ballroom construction crew.

The "separation of powers" was mostly just good vibes. It was a social contract we all thought we bought into. They did not. And they knew how vulnerable we were. That's Project 2025 in a nutshell. Exploit everything. And they have.

One thing the trump era taught us is that so much we thought was bedrock was just tradition and good manners. The system was not designed to repel a gang of thieves determined to tear it all down.

OMFG This is unbelievable. How is he allowed to do this to The People's House?

I feel utterly sick to my stomach over this. How HOW is this happening without any Congressional oversight not to mention all the dozens of orgs that are supposed to sign off.

Is there a more perfect metaphor?

JUST IN: The White House has begun DEMOLISHING portions of the East Wing of the White House to build Trump’s $250 million ballroom — despite earlier claiming it wouldn’t “interfere” with the existing White House structure. (Washington Post)

“China imports no US soybeans in September for the first time since trump was in office last time.”

the Muppets have been real quiet since the Louvre heist

trump told President Zelenskyy to cede portions of his country to the Russian aggressors. When I was a kid, horrified by learning about the Soviet Union, trump was in Russia, taking their financial support and becoming a Russian asset. So to me and my peers, this behavior is just unfathomable.

Here's a gift link to the New York Times' coverage of the initial Tea Party rallies in April 2009 which inspired the media to treat it like a massive movement. Check out how tiny the crowds were: Philly: 200 DC: "several hundred" Boston: 500 Austin: 1,000 Houston: 2,000

Good morning and happy Sunday to everyone. Before you buy Girl Scout cookies you should know they support transgender girls and reject donations from anti-transgender organizations, so make sure you order extra boxes of the new rocky road ice cream-inspired Exploremores.

Every Republican on the Sunday shows should be forced to watch the Air Feces One video and then be asked, “Is the President sane?”

Myrtle Beach, SC No Kings Protest. Trump supporter brandishes gun from vehicle at peaceful protestors and is arrested.

At this point, if you're interviewing a Republican about the president's latest transgression and you *don't* have the video or post or whatever cued up and ready to show them when they pretend they haven't seen it yet -- I'm just going to assume you're in on the con yourself.

It's a test run for refusing to sign in new members after the midterms. Normalizing the power of the speaker also deflects from the responsibility of the entire body to uphold democratic processes and the law.

This painting immediately came to mind…

Portland ICE facility now.

No kings protester , Paris France....🇨🇵
