Gift Article: “An old rule in Washington holds that you are entitled to your own opinions but you are not entitled to your own facts. President Trump seems determined to prove that wrong.” @peterbakernyt.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2025/08/03/u...

I had two 5-year-olds chasing me at a kids’ birthday yesterday, and I threw on the brakes, gave them a little juke, and then hit the gas, and they collided with each other where they thought I was going to be and went down in a crying heap. Absolutely cooked their asses. One of the kids was mine.

The hypocrisy is astounding. James Stalarico (Rep. Texas) calls them out.

The opinion by Paxton explicitly takes no position on whether breaking quorum is unconstitutional because, as Paxton said, it was tied up in litigation at the time www.texasattorneygeneral.gov/sites/defaul...

NOTABLY the Paxton opinion that Abbott cites doesn’t actually say lawmakers who break quorum are removable — in fact it says this is a fact-specific question only resolvable by a court. The opinion also does not say it’s unconstitutional to break quorum. www.texasattorneygeneral.gov/sites/defaul...

JUST IN: Abbott says he may treat fleeing lawmakers as having “forfeited” their offices and move to replace them. He also suggests they could be subject to felony charges if they accept payments to cover impending fines gov.texas.gov/uploads/file...

I'm on the portal to my doctor's office now, asking how many more medications he's willing to put me on. Baby needs a new pair of shoes.

UPDATE: Governor Abbott just threatened to REMOVE THE TEXAS DEMS FROM THEIR SEATS if they don’t return by 3pm Monday (so Republicans can steal 5 seats in Congress using a special session about the flooding as cover) — and charge them with FELONIES. We are over the cliff.

IMO TRUMP HAS ORDERED HIS PARTISAN DOJ AND FBI TO SCRUB THE EPSTEIN CASE FILES OF HIS NAME. THERE ARE MANY PICS WHERE HE'S BEING CHUMY WITH EPSTEIN, MAXWELL,AND PROBABLY OTHER PEDOPHILES. #EPSTEINandTRUMP

The man who had his doctor report that he’s 6’3”, 238 lbs fired the person in charge of reporting labor statistics.

The fact that nobody around him has told him this isn’t how numbers work shows you how afraid of him everyone who works for him is.

Ansari: I’m a massive believer in knocking on doors and field organizing. Does anyone remember how many votes Attorney General Kris Mayes won her race by? Yes—270-some votes out of over 2 million…

Crockett: Every time there's a cleanup on aisle 9, they seem to come and find a Democrat to do it and then they get amnesia

Texas House Democrats left the state Sunday in a bold move to prevent a vote on the Republican effort — backed by Trump — to unfairly rewrite the state’s congressional map.

my posts go bacterial

www.cbsnews.com/news/democra... Schumer was negotiating with GOP leadership for $5 billion for the NIH, $1 billion for Global Fund, $300 million for the World Food Program, $50 million to fight HIV in developing countries, about $140 million for the UN Children's Fund in exchange for confirmations.

The IRS's free Direct File tool is now "gone," according to Trump's IRS chief. This comes after tax prep companies like Intuit, the maker of TurboTax, lobbied the for years to block it. Intuit donated $1M to Trump’s inauguration. See how this works?

You’ve got it Allison!

Texas Democrats have tried this before Each time they caved-and Republicans gerrymandered the state more and more Now the Democrats must do whatever it takes to stop the GOP’s corruption With the DNC and major Democratic donors backing them-completely Our entire democracy just might be at stake

🚨 Ken Paxton wants Dems arrested for refusing to help rig an election. That’s rich coming from a guy indicted on three felony counts of securities fraud, accused by his top deputies of bribery, abuse of office, while allegedly using burner phones, secret emails & fake names to dodge accountability.

Gotta Love Larry!

Google it.

This is pretty fucking insane. Abbott says he’ll remove any Democrats who don’t show up tomorrow from office.

Dems try to get on the news all the time, but sadly the media is controlled by the oligarchs who are working for the Republicans. It's up to us online to make sure everyone knows because the legacy media isn't doing their jobs. But the folks on this starter pack are doing their jobs for them.

How much extra time did they invest? Maybe they should publish this type of information as opposed to letting people like me think they aren't doing much. Dems have a communication problem & they can't seem to figure out the following political axiom: "Simple minds understand simple things."

The Texas Governor issues a warning. The Texas Governor says that if the Texas Democratic Legislators do not return by 3pm Monday 8/4, he will declare their seats vacant, and appoint replacements.

I need 🇨🇦 women to pay attention after the announcement that Carney is cutting the WAGE ministry. We have warned everyone that this bill will be used to surveil and police women and now he is showing you who he is. Do not be complacent, we will end up like 🇺🇸 #Canadasky

Just realized I never posted this, my apologies! I won’t be posting much over the next week or so. Everything is fine, I’m just taking my own advice and getting away from the shitshow - spending some time at the beach and a national park with the family before school starts back up!

Catastrophic subtitling on the 1941 movie "Love on the Dole". (It should read "She's a strange lass, is our Sal"...)

Forget eggs—the cost of coffee is skyrocketing, and folks are noticing. I heard it was coming, so I stocked up weeks ago, but my supply won’t last forever. Trump’s Brazil tariffs are to blame.

#ResistanceEarth #BlueEarth If you've ever been stung by a fire ant (I have) you know how they earned their name. Now climate change-fueled heat waves and flooding plus urban sprawl are increasing fire ant colonies in Florida. They are hard to get rid of. www.floridatoday.com/story/news/l...
