What a disgrace. Says it all, really. 😕🇺🇸

Looking at what he's done to the People's House (without Congressional approval, of course), I feel equal parts rage & embarrassment for our country. The Midterms can't come soon enough... #Register&VOTE 🌊

It might be hard to see from this picture today of the White House, but Donald Trump is very focused on lowering costs.

Words truly fail me... bsky.app/profile/renf...

Brian Bilston this morning...

Both of these videos are great. digbysblog.net/2026/05/09/h...

Not a trans person. Not a drag queen. Just another Christian pastor. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

And the Epstein files....

So, this feels spot on.

This is a pretty good summary, sadly.

I saw this headline and thought, "Four in ten Americans are morons." www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

A rare photo of the U.S. Supreme Court deliberating Louisiana v. Callais.

Anyone who doesn't recognize what an utter pyschopathic and delusional moron this guy is - well, they also are not playing with a full deck. digbysblog.net/2026/04/30/t...

🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

Interesting piece that posits, pretty convincingly, that while US incomes are generally higher than incomes in western Europe, the US in fact has higher levels of poverty, with people not as well off. The villain is greater inequality in the US. www.euronews.com/business/202...

As both a retired lawyer and as a person who loathes AI, I get a kick about the many law firms who are getting sanctioned for using it. Got a particular kick out of this one as Sullivan is a huge, very well known firm who should definitely know better. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

Completely on point...

Understanding/having humor takes a certain amount of intelligence. Ergo, you're absolutely right.

Mike Johnson, of course, is sending the victims and their families his "thoughts and prayers." He will not, however, introduce any gun control legislation for the House's consideration. 'murica! kutv.com/news/nation-...

From Brian Bilston...

Such a relief to know that ICE is taking the most dangerous criminals out of circulation! digbysblog.net/2026/04/16/c...

Given all the publicity about lawyers getting sanctioned for using AI and as a result citing fake case law/authorities, one would think that lawyers would stop using AI - or, at least, stop using it without checking/double-checking AI's work. But one would be wrong. www.latimes.com/california/s...

Federal judge hit 2 lawyers with 110,000 in fines. One out of state and the local that was supervising. Case about control of a vineyard. AI hallucinations cost lawyers $110,000 in Oregon vineyard lawsuit - oregonlive.com share.google/AzfOGQh03bXt...

At the core of all this, is really being pushed right now? More screen time for kids. Yay?

Intriguing to folks that Chump might refer to as "low IQ" individuals...

Atheist here, but seems about right...

I love Brian Bilston...

AP Headline, Wednesday morning, 10 am California time: "Iran Closes Strait of Hormuz in response to Israeli attacks on Lebanon, Iranian-state media reports" So, that didn't last long.

Surprise surprise (not)! TACO!

We should all have such a day!

So, given how no one ever heard of the Strait of Hormuz before, how were Chump and his merry band of morons to know there might be a problem with it????

At least Shrub had the decency to create some lies about why we "needed" to attack Iraq. digbysblog.net/2026/02/28/a...

Hey, I have a headline suggestion for the NY Times re the state of the union: TRUMP SPEWS TSUMAMI OF LIES IN SOTU ADDRESS"

Happy Valentine's Day from me and Brian Bilston!

Acrostically speaking....

This was the musical coda for Krugman's column this morning. "What a day to wake up on!" She's got that right... www.youtube.com/watch?v=XDkh...

In case you think that white supremacy isn't THE driving factor in MAGAt World, Laura Loomer is here to solidly disabuse you of your error. I assume she was wearing a white hood when she wrote this, but she didn't post a pic of herself...

Not surprising. It's become clear that AI used in the legal world frequently messes up badly by, e.g., fabricating case law/citations, resulting in quite a few lawyers being sanctioned. Apparently, AI used in medical devices may suffer from similar issues. www.reuters.com/investigatio...

Who knew that Brian Bilston knew me when I was 14????

Republicans want to kill you and your children. And no, I'm not speaking metaphorically. www.reuters.com/legal/litiga...

This is beyond horrendous. Beyond. When we call them Nazis - the Gestapo - we are not exaggerating. digbysblog.net/2026/02/01/i...

With all of the problems LA has with affordability and traffic, leaders who lack vision hold us back and entrench the status quo... futureis.la/p/dissolve-t...

Brian Bilston hits it on the head as usual.

Being called hun, having some good pie and coffee would have done him good.

She is good... youtube.com/shorts/zwY04...

This is an actual note from Chump to the PM of Norway. To say that he is utterly insane is to grossly understate the situation:
