I lived in a time when the Supreme Court was where you practiced law under the Constitution. Now the Supreme Court is where you go to negotiate, blackmail, subvert the Constitution for your own personal ends. Welcome to Kash Patel and Dictator Trump.

I do wonder how MAGA will try to turn the tables and blame everyone else for Trump’s cruelty, inhumanity, and idiotic words.policies and behaviors.

Tell me your Thanksgiving Shame. My first solo Thanksgiving, I cut myself making stuffing and bled all over it. Rodney Dangerfield was a friend and he came into the kitchen and found me crying. He grabbed a spoon, mixed the blood in and and said "Honey, they're all drunk." Everyone ate it.

Grateful for this platform and all the people on here.

I’m seriously shocked by Marc Andreessen’s bulls*hit CFPB conspiracy theories. I 🙏 MAGA people wake TFU and tell these false witnesses that they are tired of their intelligence being insulted. I may even extend some grace to those who directed us here.

Disruption is overrated.

Have y’all seen any of the tech guru billionaires’ Xitter bios that mention “noticed” or “noticing”? Apparently, that’s a reference to them “noticing” (the Jews’) long hand at work, controlling everything. 🙄

I’m laughing to/at myself remembering how quaint we and our parents were in the mid-late 1960s. I thought those days were done.

When (if) Trump is alive to leave the White House on 1/20/29…

OMG, Netanyahu

Musk has now threatened the leaders of Canada,Brazil, Germany. X helped create a riot in the UK. Now it seems he doesn't want the UK to make its own legal decisions. Time to act?

Oh, shoot! How do I exit the opening X screen offering me 40% off a 1 year subscription?!

Well, well, well, it was Boris. 🤣 www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2024/...

Ocala horse ranches.

I love Bluesky

This is exactly right. Trump’s big advantage is that he’s playing tic-tac-toe without a pencil but somehow convinces people he’s multiverse time-travel chess.

Family includes everyone! ❤️

Eh?

I’d still like an explanation about this.

During an appearance on Russian TV, Trump HHS nominee RFK Jr. claimed the World Health Organization used to “fabricate pandemics like the swine flu, like the H1N1.”

Whoa! It’s only 45 degrees here in NEFL !

“I Think Elon…” www.politico.com/news/2024/11...

Are we sure that Fox isn’t a satire thing that MAGA weirdos were just too dumb too comprehend? Greg Gutfield is neither a comedian nor a political pundit wizard.

Ouch. But he has a point.

And I cannot believe I have to relive the memory of this, but here we go: 4—In 2013, Pam Bondi got an execution rescheduled because she had a fundraiser on the same night. tampabay.com/blogs/the-bu...

Remember in the movie “Aliens” when no one listened to the woman and then everyone died? That’s what the vibe feels like right now.

Can people who lost their belongings in "sweeps" of homeless encampments recover them? Some cities have storage programs, but as one advocate says, they offer only an “illusion of compassion.” Here's what we found ⬇️

Apparently the story being given out is that Vance was practicing for 'something' (they didn't say what) and CBS over-reacted. All the vehicles were supposedly part of Vance's "team". Whatevs.

I’m reading pool reports that 2 ambulances and many vans carrying Secret Service agents just left Mar-a-Lago. 🤷🏻‍♀️

The last 24 hours have reminded me of just how stupid and incompetent Trump is.

Are we La Resistance? I always wanted to be part of a historic event.

Did Wray and Mayorkas refuse to testify before the House because they are concerned about insider threats?

"What a relief. A genuine reason to celebrate." Fighting back matters. Now let's focus on Hegseth, Gabbard, RFK Jr. www.americaamerica.news/p/snapshot-m...

You are right. There's something called "pink slime." It's partisan or malign actors masquerading as hometown news sites. There are now more of them than actual daily sites. Top it off with certain outrage-driven channels blanketing the air, and you get the enormity of it all.

This is tragic and outrageous, Georgia.

So, since Gaetz withdrew himself as the nominee, is Marjorie Taylor Greene still going to release all of those sexual assault reports against other Republicans, or not?
