Now we will see how the Republicans blame the action of a guy from Afghanistan on the Democratic Party.

I hope the Guard members pull through. It was not their fault that our Toddler in Chief declared war on U.S. cities. The shooter needs to never be outside a cell again. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/11...

I have no detailed knowledge of Mark Kelly’s policy positions or Senate voting record. But what America needs more than anything is a president with integrity and guts. He's got both.

That sound you heard was every GOP elected official with a lick of sense absolutely SHITTING themselves thinking about the visual of Mark Kelly back in uniform before a military court as Whiskey Pete's handpicked chucklefucks try to railroad him on bogus charges.

@captmarkkelly.bsky.social Run for president. You would be an outstanding candidate.

Mark Kelly for president.

After a hiatus due to my injury, we’re back.

We’re back! shows.acast.com/67981e86dc08...

How many half-read or unread books are on your Kindle? I have about 35.🫣

Grok defies the Musk narrative.

Don’t tell him about Truman.

Something you can use to counter pro-illegality propaganda online;

I agree that members of the military should refuse to obey illegal orders. If anybody in the White House thinks I should be arrested and tried for sedition, come and get me.

“She told me she was 18!” — the most-uttered phrase in Washington, D.C. over the upcoming three years.

White nationalists can absolutely fuck themselves.

Release ALL the files. Release the perpetrator names.

My revised starter pack

Does anyone believe Trump’s “immigration crackdown” is about anything other than ethic cleansing? Here is what I think: If Mexicans spoke English and had a slightly lighter average skin tone, the ICE brutality would not be happening.

Whoever is making these hilarious memes should be ashamed of themselves. Just stop it.

Seen in Chicago.

🎶 It's beginning to look a lot like MAGA Christmas.🎶

Some advice: Try your best not to break any ribs. But if you have to, try to do it before turning 60. The recovery from this injury has been slow a frustrating. I can't work. I walk with a cane to steady myself. And I am SO BORED!

That changed very suddenly.

This year, we proved that we can no longer fund billionaire tax cuts without cutting more deeply into the social safety net than anyone thought we would ever do. What’s next? Earned benefits like Social Security and Medicare. After that? Public land and the contents of the Smithsonian. 1/2

Obamacare is far from perfect. But the Republican health care plan is: Fuck you, we’re working on tax cuts for billionaires.

I’m thinking there must be a shortage of gold spray paint in the Washington, D.C. area right now.

Holiday season this year.

The plan as of now is from the Life in the Stupid Times podcast to return Nov. 24. By then my recovery should be far enough along.

“Hey, is that Qatari jet ready to fly?” — Donald Trump earlier tonight, probably

I live less than a half mile from the Obama Center. Watching it come together has been interesting.

BiDeN dIDn’T ReLeASE the EPsTeIn fiLeS! It was illegal to release the files until Trump’s close friend Ghislaine Maxwell was sentenced and it exhausted her chances to appeal. That happened in 2025. Releasing the evidence prior to that would have tainted her prosecution. youtu.be/2M2QoDwDtlU

For anyone who needs to hear this: If cream of mushroom soup, egg noodles and frozen peas are all you have in the house, you can make a lovely dinner.

The whole “taking a free 747-8 from Qatar” thing is starting to make sense. That jet has a range of 8,000 nautical miles. That’s a great aircraft to have if fleeing to Doha, Moscow, or Riyadh is a possibility.

Wait… They met with Boebert in the fucking Situation Room? coloradosun.com/2025/11/12/l...

The tough guy from ICE can’t handle a Chicago winter. chicago.suntimes.com/public-safet...

If this is as bad as it looks, Trump could end up fleeing country — in his Qatari plane. Epstein Files Live Updates: Trump Named in Emails Released by Democrats and Republicans www.nytimes.com/live/2025/11...

OMG. I made the mistake of looking at X/Twitter. That place is a worse cesspool than ever.

Here’s the really dumb part. Trump can start a civil war, destroy economy and impose martial law. But, eventually, about the truth about the girls he raped in the 80s and 90s will come out anyway.

Art of the deal: If Trump passes Medicare for All and privately admits guilt and makes restitution to his victims, the public can wait until he leaves office to find out about the teenagers he raped in the 80s and 90s. Deal?

The folks on Truth Social are convinced that 100 million people in the U.S. (about 29% of the U.S. population) are “illegal immigrants.”🤦‍♂️🤦

The Republicans’ idea of reforming the ACA is to make it less generous to who participate. The Democrats should focus on making it into a bridge to Medicare for All.

1/ Thread: Please join me on a little rhetorical journey about this site. For the first time in months, I visited ClearSky yesterday. I found that some people continue to baselessly and anonymously accuse me of being a pornographer and/or a secret right-winger.

Bankrupting a casino was an impressive accomplishment. Most people never get close to fucking things up so spectacularly.

When prices rise because *demand* is hot, wages usually follow. When prices rise because tariffs raise costs -- a *supply* shock -- there’s no reason paychecks catch up. That’s why tariff inflation hurts a whole heckuva lot more. It's a permanent reduction in living standards.

I think the GOP’s biggest frustration now is how slowly the system is falling apart. They cannot yet justify moves like having Congress vote itself out of existence. Before the midterms, though, I expect the minions of MAGA in our government to try something really crazy.
