Back in the day, you could start at Madoff’s Palm Beach home and drive 4 miles down to Mar-a-Lago. Along the way you could stop at two of the Koch brothers homes plus swing by Jeff Epstein’s place. Oh, and Limbaugh was just up the road! Instead of Palm Beach it should be called "Asshole's Island"?

The only way we will EVER see genuine accountability on the part of the Democratic party is by financially holding their feet to the fire. Unless and until we get these two installed as minority party leaders, we shouldn't give them a single damn💲!!

(checks notes to see when Schumer finally endorsed Mamdani)........oh, that's right he NEVER FUCKING DID! 😑🙄 Anyone who tries to paint that invertebrate as a "hold out" for voting against this CR has zero clue how party politics works. We absolutely must primary his ass into oblivion.

I'm really confused why everyone's trying to tie the Tenn District 7 special election to the Epstein discharge petition. Massie's one signature short of the needed 218 signatories - that's Rep Grijalva's. Regardless of Tenn7 outcome, once she signs...that's it. There's no vote offsetting involved. 🤔

Unfortunately, the next day ICE showed up, profiled Boots as an illegal, dragged him into a van, and whisked him off to an El Salvadorean prison.

Just to put this 50-year mortgage 'game-changer' into perspective: The total amount paid on a $350,000 50-year loan at 6.5% interest would be $1,363,855, consisting of the original principal of $350,000 and over $1 million ($1,013,855) in INTEREST over the life of the loan!

The man's utter stupidity is breathtaking. Donald J. Trump makes George W. Bush look like Stephen Fucking Hawking!

I'm not Michelangelo or even an architect...but just in case it helps speed up his departure, I've graciously designed a custom "East Wing Exit" casket for the occasion. 😏

"Sire, the peasants are revolting!" "You said it...they stink on ice."

We all need to be realistic regarding any Supreme Court tariff win. As soon as the regime loses this case they will: 1. Use Section 122 of the Trade Expansion Act to impose maximum 15% tariffs for up to 150 days 2. Howard Lutnick will then conduct a series of quick bogus ‘investigations’... [1/2]

Could someone please post Alan "Budd Dwyer" Dershowitz' memorial service details? I'd like to send a nice flower arrangement. 💐🤭

There are currently ~88 democracies in the world. In 87 of those, AOC would be considered a centrist politician and Mamdani would be considered a center-left politician. Only in America would they be viewed as some sort of amalgam of Lenin, Mao and Che Guevara! 🙄

POV: Republicans deciding on the strategy of “Hey…I've got an idea. Let’s go after Jack Smith in court!!” is the political equivalent of using a giant wasp's nest as the piñata for your child's birthday! 🤣

Could someone who is still on the bird app please post Bill Ackman's book-length meltdown tweet as soon as it arrives! Thanks 🤣

My expectation for tomorrow's Washington Post headline 🤪

Aside from the use of the word "one," every time I hear the theme from Slow Horses I think it should become the new Republican anthem: "Surrounded by losers Misfits and boozers Hanging by your fingernails You made one mistake You got burned at the stake You're finished, you're foolish, you failed"

Today's Drinking Game: Take a shot every time you see or hear someone use the word "POLARIZING." I'm guessing we'll all be looking like Whiskey Pete by 10:30am. 🤪

Republicans thrive on "Buridan's Donkey Paradox" which posits that a hungry donkey placed halfway between two identical hay bales will be paralyzed (unable to choose between the two) and thus starve to death. Marginally affordable healthcare or minimal food assistance are their current hay bales.

He's so spot on, he never fails to make me laugh 😂

I was fortunate enough to be able to spend 15 minutes in front of Bosch's 'The Garden of Earthly Delights' at the Prado last month. But the entire time, i had an overwhelming urge to separate these two panels into BEFORE Trump and AFTER Trump. 🤪

Given the looming food crisis so many families will now face, I hope all of us who have the means will consider donating to World Central Kitchen this weekend. José Andrés has done amazing work around the world, and is busy feeding federal workers during the shutdown. It's a great cause wck.org

Sure...let’s all fawn over the guy who voted against The Voting Rights Act, the guy who voted against the For The People Voter Registration Act, the guy who voted against the Assault Weapons Ban, and the guy who voted against the Women’s Health Protection Act. 🙄

POV: Bluesky users on that not-too-distant day we finally hear that a certain someone won't be coming down for breakfast.😎

I know it's petty...but I so wish a majority of fans would turn their backs during the American national anthem tomorrow night at Dodgers Stadium and then turn back around and loudly cheer for the Canadian anthem. For no other reason than it will INFURIATE Trump and Fox News.

Sort of proud getting a notification that I was added to the "Dumbest Mofos On Bluecry" custom feed list. Feels like I've made it to the big leagues! 🤣

Thus the reason why Stephen Miller is bald! 😏

Just wondering if the U.S. has officially entered the realm of "shithole countries" Mango Mussolini was ranting about back in 2018?

I'm half expecting these trolls to begin demolition on the West Colonnade soon. I mean hell, the big octagon and seating for the upcoming UFC cage match will need to go somewhere...might as well get rid of the useless press briefing room and press corps offices. 🤪

I don't like seeing anybody out of work, but I hope Democrat leadership realizes that their leverage is increasing every single day the shutdown continues. This regime can lie about employment, GDP and inflation but they CAN'T cover up horrible retail sales numbers. [1/2]

I fail to understand why Democrat governors (or mayors) whose cities are being targeted by ICE haven’t simply ordered their police forces to isolate and arrest ICE officers when and where opportunities arise. Who cares about the ‘legality’ of it. It's time to start beating them at their own game.

Has anyone tried unplugging Trump, waiting 30 seconds, and then plugging the worthless piece of shit back in?

This is an honest question – not a shitpost to rile the masses! But how the hell did patriotism become such a sacred cow in this country? I consider myself a pretty decent human. I’m compassionate, kind, and empathetic. But I would NEVER call myself ‘patriotic.’ [1/4]

Sure, the execution may be vastly different, but truth be told, the underlying principles are pretty damn identical!

My sign from today's Boston rally. Was heartening to see so many people turn out on a beautiful sunny day.

Starting to think Yeats was prescient! 🫤 "𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘴 𝘧𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘢𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘵; 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘤𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘳𝘦 𝘤𝘢𝘯𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘩𝘰𝘭𝘥; 𝘔𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘢𝘳𝘤𝘩𝘺 𝘪𝘴 𝘭𝘰𝘰𝘴𝘦𝘥 𝘶𝘱𝘰𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘭𝘥, 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘣𝘭𝘰𝘰𝘥-𝘥𝘪𝘮𝘮𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘪𝘥𝘦 𝘪𝘴 𝘭𝘰𝘰𝘴𝘦𝘥, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘤𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘮𝘰𝘯𝘺 𝘰𝘧 𝘪𝘯𝘯𝘰𝘤𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘪𝘴 𝘥𝘳𝘰𝘸𝘯𝘦𝘥; 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘣𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘭𝘢𝘤𝘬 𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘷𝘪𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯, 𝘸𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘴𝘵 𝘈𝘳𝘦 𝘧𝘶𝘭𝘭 𝘰𝘧 𝘱𝘢𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘵𝘦 𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘴𝘪𝘵𝘺."

Why do I feel like 30 years from now Americans are going to be looking back at the vileness of Cinnamon Shitler as being somewhat 'quaint' compared to the psychopathy and sociopathy of his demon offspring?! 😱

My reply to all DNC fundraising emails: "Until you stop supporting old, establishment Dems like Mills rather than Platner, and start supporting progressive candidates like Mamdani, I'll be giving to individual candidates who actually give a shit about change rather than paying lip service to it." 🖕

I wonder how many of the bible-thumping, flag-waving cristo-fascists realize there's pretty compelling evidence that Cristobal Colon was likely NOT born in Genoa, but instead was a Spanish "converso" - a Sephardic Jew from the Iberian Peninsula forced to publicly deny his religion. 🤣

Hitler loved to rant about the evils of "Entartete Kunst" (degenerate art) from the likes of van Gogh, Picasso, Chagall and others. Same playbook, different "degenerates" today, as our totalitarian regime gnashes its teeth re: any visual representation of the LGBTQ+ community. 😑🙄

Stumbled across this last night. Perhaps the most lucid and relatable call to sanity for southern men I've heard during this never-ending nightmare of a shitshow. It's 8 minutes long, but definitely should be required listening for EVERY southern male! 👏👏👏

Another rapture has come and gone without me getting HOV-laned up to hang out with Jeezy. 😞 Oh well, at least I'll still be around for all the Slow Horses episodes to drop on Apple TV! 🥳

Maybe it's just me, but with every passing day these two are looking more and more like dollar store batman villains. 🙄

I think we should all take a moment to send thoughts and prayers to Bevis who will be struggling through tomorrow's memorial service for his best friend. 😭

Just back from a lovely, relaxed late dinner in a Madrid tapas bar. Watched an older American couple come in...making no effort at the language, complaining that they couldn't alter the dishes, then storming out in a huff. I feel like I have to apologize for my countrymen everywhere I go! 😡

Every little bit helps, I guess...see ya, Hulu!

Sitting here on the windowsill of my rental apartment in Porto, looking across at Vila Nova de Gaia and wondering why the %$#& I would ever want to return to my now third-world country! 🤔

Republicans absolutely do believe in 'free speech'...but only when the word 'racist,' 'sexist,' or 'homophobic' is inserted between free and speech.

Long and disturbing but incredibly insightful article from @ariberman.bsky.social. I fear @marcelias.bsky.social and others have a long fight ahead of them! I especially find the idea of the GOP retrying their failed attempt to block certain midterm Election Certifications to be worrisome.

Here's an interesting tariff reality check: 😕 Tariffs on a $300 item made in Germany that I bought from a Canadian vendor: 20% - MFN rates (Germany) 15% - IEEPA tariffs (Germany) $80 – US Federal processing fee $17.50 – User processing fee $19.95 – UPS brokerage fee Total fees = $213.93

A little Thursday night palate cleanser to wash away the fetid stench coming out of Washington. My heart belongs to Florence, but my senses are electrified by Rome. Found this 20-minute hidden gem of a love letter to the eternal city on YT. Breathtakingly shot and beautifully scripted. 🤌
