The good news is since Trump damaged the economy, fewer of us can afford to travel. #SilverLining

I think we all know what the fact that the Tate Brothers got arrested in America means. It means that they’re not in the Epstein Files. Otherwise they’d still be free like the rest of them.

Attention, California Democrats who refused to drop out of the California Governor’s election when you were polling in single digits (Katie Porter, Matt Mahan, Antonio Villaraigosa et al). THIS is how you do it. Put the goal of stopping the enablers of fascism above your egos and your vanity.

One thing about me, I am persistent AF.

Done. Thank you, @thewelshtaffy24.bsky.social!

Just did an under the bed cat check. 🐾🐾❤️❤️ #caturday #cats #catsky

Thom Tillis and John Cornyn see this BS wiggling and are probably still like “… I’m trying to get to ‘yes!’”

NEW: In the Virginia case where the judge has asked Todd Blanche to rescind the $1.776B slush fund in writing, the government argues that because Blanche testified under oath that the fund is dead this past Wednesday, the issue is moot and the case should be dismissed. 1/

Well, he’s certainly right about this particular statement. Not sure how any intelligent oerson who is paying attention could disagree that this is happening.

This airport is lit* *playing all the songs I've made skeets about

What a debacle. www.mediaite.com/media/news/b...

The girls are having a very lazy #caturday. 🐾🐾❤️❤️ #cats #catsky

Yeah she’s spoiled lol #dogsofbluesky #chihuahua

Today's the day! If you're going to be in Austin today, stop by BookPeople to take a photo with me and get your book signed. Don't forget to sign up on Eventbrite so they know you're coming. www.eventbrite.com/e/bookpeople...

My cat has mental issues & doesn't want me to sleep. He loves going outside, especially at like 4 or 5 am cuz he thinks there'll be frogs out there. At least that's what I think. Could be he's just a little asshole. Even his brother is wary of him as he tentatively looks around the corner 😂

Good morning and happy Caturday. She knows she's not supposed to sit on the stereo. Did I make her move? Of course not.

I don't hide the fact that I enjoy beer, and I'm not up for a debate whether that's wrong, or right. I do have concerns, so I sent an email off to Anheuser-Busch. I'll let you know if they respond.

A Trump-tied event company, Event Strategies Inc., installed temporary lighting while setting up his big Fair on the National Mall, and fuel lines on the lighting equipment spilled at least 30 gallons of fuel which seeped underground, contaminating rainwater repositories used to irrigate the mall.

As "Wrapped Around My Finger" played in the dental clinic this afternoon, I thought back to watching its video--the swirls of candle stands!--as a junior high school student when it was newly released 43 years ago. And now here it was again, itself still the same, but me an old man.

Trump really knows how to pick ‘em. www.mediaite.com/politics/tru...

People all over the world: “How can the Americans put a man like Donald Trump in charge … again?” Me: “161 years of a third of the country still being pissed off about the outcome of the Civil War. This is what racial grievance will lead you to.”

You know how to tell when Trump’s FRIENDS and ALLIES realize he looked like a deranged old man last night? It’s when he gives a prime time speech and the people at FOX NEWS don’t want to talk about it - at all. www.mediaite.com/media/tv/fox...

Thank you @watchingevil.bsky.social! go.bsky.app/8zk5Wyn

Well, there you have it. www.mediaite.com/media/news/t...

The Republicans who control Congress have the power to stop Trump from making all of our allies in the world hate us. But they won’t. Because they’re afraid of him and afraid to do their jobs. Which is why voters must fire as many of them as possible this fall. www.mediaite.com/media/news/t...

Imagine being Thom Tillis and John Cornyn. About to leave the Senate and face the rest of your life having to deal with the legacy of what you did in office. And, having already voted to confirm Pete Hegseth and RFK Jr, giving serious thought to voting for Todd Blanche. “Let’s go for the Trifecta!”

In 1999, John Peel made a list of 400 recorded musical tracks from the 20th century, four from each year. Here is track #207 (1951):

Fox News didn’t avoid talking about Trump’s deranged speech last night because they were afraid of getting sued again. They avoided mentioning it for the same reason that you didn’t post the bizarre wedding toast your insane and dementia-addled great uncle gave onto YouTube.

And you cannot understand America - our history, our present or our politics - without understanding the often twisted ways we have treated each other differently because of our physical differences. Our history of worshipping our own skin, hating others’, over generations, is like toxic mold.

I beg you all to go read Nuremberg, Mississippi by @edwards21228.bsky.social The legal drama focused o racist laws in 1965, and character development are incredibly compelling, but ultimately you won’t be able to stop thinking about the moral questions. Obedience masking the upholding of racism.

The prairie needs a trim but meanwhile four turkeys and their 11 poults are taking advantage of the grass that’s gone to seed.

Mullin says that election officials in states that don’t cooperate with the Trump administration may face jail time

What a Maroon! www.mediaite.com/politics/tru...

@mistyswoman.bsky.social is doing great work out here. I stumbled across her while researching what turned out to be a bot swarm originating from the (now-suspended) aibogdan account. She squashes these bugs all day. Funny, too! I invite you to see for yourself, and to do what she advises below:

I've lived in Beijing, and the thing is - they don't have elections.

Me: [Catches moth before Lily can] Lily: [Annoyed at my lameness] Me: [Opens door, releases moth, 37 other moths enter] Lily: [Delighted]

This man would “get to yes” no matter what. Like he did with Hegseth. After giving his accuser the false impression that there was anything she could do to make him risk his career even a little bit. Trump ended his career and he’s still too timid to do the right thing.

I finally watched the speech after the fact on Bulwark. Not only is Trump continuing to lie about him losing the 2020 election, as most intelligent people realize. But it was also a really, really bad speech. Dementia-addled/insane Grandpa on downers. www.youtube.com/watch?v=BpEo...

What could go wrong?
