If anyone was truly on the fence about Cuellar's corruption, Trump's pardon should have made it clear, unless you are Hakeem Jeffries.

Woman who shot her perfectly healthy dog, has her lips permanently attached to Trump's ass, and bought 2 airplanes for personal use with tax payer money has thoughts on "killers, leeches, and entitlement addicts"...

How is not upgrading devices considered "hoarding"? It's like saying cutting back on driving means you're hoarding gasoline. Kevin Williams at CNBC is a hack. The headline was updated, but the original is visible in the URL. He repeats the hoarding claim in the story. www.cnbc.com/2025/11/23/h...

"You're such a hero and have been awarded so many medals that you can't even keep them straight" is probably not the message Hegseth intended, but that's what happens when you post drunk.

I love this song.

Not even satire

If I was only able to follow one person on here, it might be Karl.

I didn't realize I was an unpaid intern at @talkingpointsmemo.com !!! I've been following TPM from the start 25 years ago, so it's especially ironic knowing @davidkurtz.bsky.social path to his current job started by being a valued commenter on TPM. WTF?

A prominent Republican who recognized Donald Trump as a pedophile decades ago now avoids comment. That prominent Republican? Teenage Ivanka Trump. Seems like something a functional press would follow up on.

As someone who has been chanting "headlines need bylines" for two years, I endorse this message.

It's 2025 & the WSJ can't spot Trump's weasel words in his Truth Social post when it comes to his call to release the Epstein files. "the House Oversight Committee can have whatever they are legally entitled to" ie. whatever Trump gives his corrupt Attorney General Pam Bondi permission to release.

@gluesenkampperez.house.gov hasn't thought through the ramifications of her own proposal. Splitting up WA-03 would result in an actual Democrat representing Clark County & a Republican Nazi representing the surrounding area. That won't solve polarization, but it would rid us of her. I'll take it!

Republican women: when you were a teenager, did you have to make your own father promise not to date anyone younger than you, or was that just an Ivanka Trump thing?

Here's my Democratic Representative claiming it was the Democrats "holding hungry Americans hostage" during the shutdown. She should just switch parties already.

Oh, ok, so Epstein advised Lavrov about how to handle Trump, which means that since early in Trump's first term, Trump has known the Russians have his child rape kompromat. The only thing to do is to call for resignation and move forward with impeachment. There is no other option.

Totally opposite his view when it comes to SNAP benefits

THIS. Durbin knows exactly his this will go. He is just OK with it as long as Democrats can use it in campaign ads against Republicans.

I received this email about Democrats caving to end the shutdown from one of the SNAP recipients I spoke to:

Approaching human reasoning is something AI should avoid (humans too).

Blame *all* Democratic incumbents for this surrender. Not just the ones voting for it. The others could have voted to remove Schumer long ago and install a leader capable of formulating a strategy and holding his people together. They were content to stay with a proven loser.

On the two biggest contests in the past week — the NYC election and the shutdown — Chuck Schumer isn’t just voting with Republicans; he’s voting explicitly with *Donald Trump*

Damn it. So predictable. @murray.senate.gov @cantwell.senate.gov

This observation describes so many oligarchs

Happens frequently when I post about Elon Musk...some fanboi with a fake Musk account and zero followers likes my post or follows me. Nope. Blocked. Losers.

True story. I was recently parked at a mountain bike trailhead in southern Utah when a Cybertruck pulled up with a bike on the back and MARSRVR vanity plates. As he chatted up every biker in the parking lot, I hid in my camper until he left...for his benefit and mine.

Grok Imagine prompt: She smiles and says "Of course you dropped out of Stanford after 2 days, even though Stanford said you never enrolled, and the enrollment deadline is a month before the start of classes."

Guy who launched his career by lying about dropping out of Stanford talks about being a charismatic swindler...

sounds like a DOGE process...

Absofuckinglutely

"The best way to spot an idiot? Look for the person who is cruel... when someone’s path through this world is marked with acts of cruelty, they have failed the first test of an advanced society ...I have found one thing to be universally true: the kindest person in the room is often the smartest"

My wife's flight was canceled and she's stuck at the airport in Tanzania for 2 days. Internet has been intermittently shut off. The military has been deployed. This is a preview of what our midterms could look like.

Of course...

Grokipedia tries to thread the needle by citing a bogus Forbes article that repeats Musk's own dropout lie. Musk never enrolled at Stanford. His admittance was likely rescinded for failing to complete undergrad. We've been over this!  bsky.app/profile/stur...

Today I learned that you can mute those loud and annoying ads at the gas pump by hitting a random button. The exact button varies, but I went 3 for 3 on my trip. You're welcome, unless I was just the last to know...

Good job Caterpillar

“What is to stop Trump from making comparably inflated claims about the situations on the ground in other American cities as a pretextual basis for deploying troops? And what’s to stop him from making those claims not tomorrow, but next November—on the eve of the midterms?” Me, via “One First”:

Kudos to the Purdue Exponent, which operates independently from Purdue University. I am sure that Purdue University itself would have caved to the fascists just like Indiana University. This is a great example of the importance of an independent press.

I think it would be awkward to play pickleball while a couple thousand of my neighbors protested a fascist takeover of our democracy, but that's just me.

I was traveling through southern Utah today. I didn't want to miss out on No Kings, so I stopped in St. George. It was a beautiful day. I estimate 2000 mostly white, very normal people showed up to hate on Trump...in southern Utah! It was beautiful, especially the frog with a sub.

This woman, the mother of a 3 year old, is in jail in your district for playing the clarinet to protest ICE. Any comment @gluesenkampperez.house.gov ?

Describe your Bluesky account with a single image.

Under Tom's rubric, nothing can ever be called fascism: If you are able to publicly call something fascism, then it is, by definition, not fascism. But under real fascism, you are also not able to publicly call it fascism. Very convenient!

I bet the white nationalists are going to have mixed feelings about this one.

Future Nazi memorabilia...

I wonder if Grokipedia will repeat the lie that he dropped out at Stanford.

If you're wondering why they don't go to court with their high paid lawyers for an easy win, it's because this allows Google to bribe Trump. All the big players are way over their skis on AI investment and are sure they will need a bailout at some point. It's 2009 but for tech instead of housing

Edit to add: Praise Eric Adams? Of course!

JFC

I wonder if she made grandpa promise not to date anyone younger than her.

Yeah...about those severe injuries
