And yet...

“This was a very very bad vote”

I'd like for someone in the dem caucus to tell us which senators were real no votes and which ones voted no because they were allowed to.

Never forget who sold us out: Hassan King Cortez-Masto Shaheen Kaine Fetterman Durbin Rosen

It's clear that the Democrats are acting cowardly in facilitating this deal. But what are they getting out of it? What are the expected rewards for this cowardice? What's the benefit to any of them?

For those who are saying the Senate deal is only through January. By the end of January, people will have already begun suffering the effects of massively increased healthcare costs. If there's another shutdown, the increased costs will continue throughout. /1

These Democratic senators are morons. The Republicans had no strategy to get out of this. If the shutdown continued, people would more clearly see what evil, destructive bastards the Republicans are. We, the Democrats, have saved them from that. They'll now look like master tacticians. /1

Imagine coming off an incredible Election Day mandate from coast to coast and going 'you know what voters want? to be completely sold out by a bunch of craven cowards too pathetic to hold the line against a bunch of fucking weirdos'

Call Schumer's office and tell him not to fold. No end to shutdown without protecting health care subsidies. 202-224-6542. #shutdown #healthcare

My 94-year-old father is standing up (not easy) against autocracy today. So should you. #nokings

We have no room for kings here in Kings County, New York (Brooklyn), so I propose we change our name to Fuckyoudonaldtrump County. #nokings

NEWS: U.S. manufacturing contracted in September for the seventh straight month, as factories felt the devastating impact of Donald Trump’s tariffs.

Everyone in the military should resign in protest. Not because of the fascism or the stupidity, but because of the boredom.

Filming an episode of Men’s Health, went to the gym and there is 99 year-old Dick Van Dyke working out. Dick has lived in Malibu for about 30 years. I thought I was doing well at 76, but Dick got up from the chest press machine and did a little dance step before I left!- Rick Springfield

Wow.

OH SNAP

Turns out autism causes Tylenol.

“Food prices rose 3.2% in the last 12 months, outpacing overall inflation. Fifty-three percent of the people surveyed by The Associated Press and NORC this summer said rising grocery prices are a significant source of stress.”

I don't think anything that's in the Epstein files, no matter how bad, is going to stop this. #trump #fascism #dictatorship #authoritarianism #oligarchy #kimmel

Now, I can't eat roast beef in Brooklyn. #fcc #disney #freekimmel

This is so messed up.

Found this on Substack. #halfmast

There was never a day on the set with Robert Redford.

Decrying violence against political opponents rings a bit hollow when you pull Secret Service protection from your political opponents.

If Kirk's death sparks a movement toward gun control, he will not have died in vain. #charliekirk

All of this makes me very sad. But I'm not going to remove anything I've posted.

It's not about guns. If we had good mental health care, Charlie Kirk would be in an asylum somewhere, protected, and this never would have happened.

"If you live in Alaska, I need you to buy a Ukrainian flag and turn any area that Putin is going to be into a sea of Ukrainian flags - so many that, when Putin lands, all he's going to see is just yellow and blue."

There are no small celebrities. Only miniature pear trees.

How come it's cheaper to buy prescription drugs from Mexico but more expensive to get Coca-Cola?

Lutnick two days ago: The Trump Economy has officially arrived! Today: Economy shows weakest job growth over a 3-month period since the Great Recession, excluding 2020

'The Justice Department has already accused Maxwell of being a pervasive liar. The prosecutors who brought charges against Maxwell repeatedly told the judge overseeing her 2021 trial that she was willing to “brazenly lie under oath about her conduct.”' www.politico.com/news/2025/07...

We said release the files not the accomplices, idiot.

2 points here: 1) There's no statute of limitations in New York for Ghislaine Maxwell's crimes (maybe also options in New Mexico and Florida). A pardon can't stop state prosecutions. 2) We just got another reason to release the Epstein files: so the public can test Maxwell's truthfulness.

I was both pleased and dismayed to discover I did, in fact, know a Black Sabbath song.

Congrats to Stephen Colbert for never bending the knee.

The cancellation of Colbert, effective next May, is at least in part a capitulation to the Trump forces by Paramount. The dominos continue to fall. #lateshow

Didn't we already know that Trump had Chronic Penis Insufficiency? #cvi

Maybe it's not a list. Maybe it's more of a tally.

Trump is aggressively ignorant. He does not learn, actively resists it, and has surrounded himself with people who enable his stupidity.
