It is obscene.

What could go wrong? www.wsj.com/world/putin-...

Putin’s puppets.

Transitioning from normie Republican to MAGA zombie didn’t quite work out for Stefanik. Kids, pay attention: You make a deal with the devil, and it doesn’t always pay off.

I’m old enough to remember when Mitt Romney said the problem was that 47% of America didn’t pay taxes and wanted to be freeloaders. But I welcome him to the resistance.

Next: Did the civil rights movement do more harm than good?

Such an asshole move.

Who could have predicted that the people who seized on rumors without verifying anything would end up being completely and utterly wrong? www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

A key thing to remember is they could release half a million pages of documents but hide several pages that are incriminating or bad for Trump, and probably get away with it.

iT’s NoT a CuLt!

Dear-Leader-itis has hit pandemic status in Trumpland.

These guys even lie about math.

Does he know?

Nicely done job by @annamerlan.bsky.social on a very difficult subject given how thin skinned Benny is for such a tough guy alpha male www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

When Stephen Miller dines at Mar-a-Lago, he’s likely been served by a foreign worker.

Can someone please dub this speech over the "Downfall" scene?

Or the State of the Looney.

This is true. But don't begrudge people the opportunity to point out this was both nuts and frightening--and that Trump set an indoor world record for lying.

"Mommy, why is that man on the street corner yelling like that?" "Don't look at him. Just stay close to me. And let's go get an ice cream."

Lame duck or...insane duck? Discuss.

No, this is great. It means the drug companies will pay YOU when you pick up your meds. Who's not for this?

Was that the most deranged 20 minutes in American political history?

Trump lies about stupid shit. Inflation under Biden was not the worst in history. He's talking like someone is about to come to take him away.

Remember, just a few yards away from Trump is the guy carrying the nuclear football. Sleep well.

If your grandfather acted like this, you would wait for him to fall asleep and then take away the car keys.

If there ever was a time for a head to explode on television, this would be it.

I feel sorry for Daniel Dale. Long night for him. @ddale8.bsky.social, can I send you a Starbucks gift card?

"100 percent of all jobs created have been in the private sector." That's what happens when you decimate government.

"Nobody can believe what's going on." True dat.

Loco.

A desperate man.

This is high-school-level juvenileness.

Waitaminute. If the economy is A+++++++++, why does he have to do this? I'm confused.

Can only imagine what Fox News would have done if Biden or Obama behaved this way.

Bongino is leaving to spend more time with his loved ones—conspiracy theorists and QAnon nutters.

Whose oil is it?

I hope Trump puts up a lot of posts about this.

A lovely, sad, and haunting piece about Providence and Brown University—before and after the shooting—from @h-lev.bsky.social.

Isn't it obvious where this is heading? The Billion Dollar Ballroom.

See my previous post.

True dat. Trump believes, as do many successful people, that what worked for them will always work for them. And he will only play to the base as he tries to implement an authoritarian order that does not need majority support.

They just lie and lie and lie, believing their Fox-fed supporters are total rubes.

I'm very tired of repeating myself about this, but, as someone who works professionally on housing affordability, this is a disgusting lie.

Area Man Wakes from 10-Year Coma

Priorities!

Nothing is known yet about the shooter's motive or political beliefs. This hasn't stopped conservative influencers from blaming the Brown University shooting on a “leftist activist.”

This is horrible. Trump and his crew shut down USAID, which has led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people, and they had no idea what they were doing or what would be the consequences. Completely immoral. (From the VF story on Susan Wiles.) www.vanityfair.com/news/story/t...
