If the current group of national Democratic officials and party leaders had been in office in 1940, dieser Beitrag wäre auf Deutsch.

If you see this quote post a show with an awesome theme song.

What would be the "all sides" to the question of who does Linda McMahon's makeup? Scholars widely agree that it's a 1970s mortician. But should students also hear it's just as possible that Tammy Faye Baker comes back from the dead to make Linda look just like Tammy looks—currently? #AllSides

Of. Fucking. Course. Anyone genuinely surprised at this should never publicly write about, comment about, or work in journalism, politics, or government *ever* again.

El Funky meet the leopard.

These ignorant, uneducated, lawless, lowlife fascist dirtbags should not be near any government agency of any kind, at any level, and as soon as democracy and law and order are restored to the U.S., they should be prosecuted to the fullest extent... but they're GS-15s??? That's fucking *absurd.*

Howard Lutnick knows less about trade than David Richardson knows about hurricanes.

The tactical mistake Van Hollen made: when Luttnick said we are of course going to follow the law, VH muttered weakly, then went onto his next question. It was a perfect opening to directly and aggressively address the lawlessness. Democracy demands people in those seats who are good off-script.

Wait, so they had to pass the bill so that they could find out what was in it? 🤔

"Well, see, there was this device called a sextant..."

I guess that means no USS Larry Craig, then. Nor USS Mark Foley. Nor USS Linds—well, you get the point.

If you're running a subscription Substack and you use non-governmental photographers' photographs without paying the copyright holder, you're a dirtbag. Captioned credit is insufficient. You're making money off of other peoples' work; if you don't pay them, you're a dirtbag. Don't be a dirtbag.

What's the over/under on how many days until Louise Perry announces she's having the next kid Elon will abandon?

so gun control works is what i’m hearing

And who purportedly taught history at George Washington University despite only holding a BS—in biology (from a private school in Arkansas tied for 296th).

Jonathan Joss was Comanche and Apache and an openly gay actor. He was murdered while looking at the remains of his dogs at his own house that was burnt down. The killer yelled homophobic slurs before shooting him. This is the real world consequences of the hatred that the right commodifies

Richardson seems to have a predilection for working in areas in which he isn't aware.👇 Since when does George Washington University hire someone with only a BS—and in biology—to "teach history"? (And no, Harding University is *not* ranked 296th; it is *tied* for 296, thank you very much.)

Curtis Yarvin is Chance the Gardener—without the insight, charm, intelligence, self-awareness, and wit.

In all of the examinations of who and what got us here, one strong contributor remains unmentioned. lastcampaign.substack.com/p/how-presid...

Scammer Mike Arthur, president of fake "charity" @veterannation.bsky.social, celebrated the start of #PrideMonth with three more (added to his *hundreds*) homophobic tweets, then hosted—live, and solo, of course—what can only be described as a Desperation Trap "hot tub party." Seems... conflicted.🤔

In the article I provide many details on how both accounts are Chad Austin Sletten's; here's a dispositive one: L: an Aug '24 tweet from "@AustinSlayton5/AustinCA" (the profile used an actual photo of Chad) R: three May '25 tweets from "@nyc_sane917" Notice anything similar? Anything... peculiar?

NOTE: this is the *second* time I have exposed a Xitter account from Chad Austin Sletten that's full of vile, racist, sexist, misogynistic, bigoted, far-right, White nationalist hate tweets, and the second time he's deleted the account in direct response. Two different handles; same piece of shit.

If you were using an anonymous X account and a writer said you were Chad Austin Sletten, President of the Bucks County Wine Trail and Managing Partner of Sand Castle Winery (which will be at Taste of Kutztown June 14, BTW)—and you *weren't* Chad—would you *delete* your entire account in response? 🤔🤷‍♂️

Almost three weeks later and the grossly unqualified, purely political appointee, Chief of Staff to the US Surgeon General, liar Stephanie Haridopolos still hasn't removed the lie about a non-existent degree—that she added *after* I exposed her—that she doesn't hold. www.linkedin.com/in/stephanie...

You may have heard that he's demanding CBS kiss the ring and pay a lot of money to resolve a meritless defamation case. You also may have missed this part. [Via Dylan Byers at Puck News.]

And here's how often—and against whom—Chad Austin Sletten, president of the Bucks County (PA) Wine Trail, uses the R-slur on his Xitter account, @nyc_sane917: x.com/search?q=ret...

And before Chad Austin Sletten, Managing Partner of Sand Castle Winery/Blind Fox Vineyard deletes more tweets (I have *many* screenshots, of course), if you're still active on The Bad Place, take a look at what he thinks about Black people, and especially elected Black women: x.com/search?q=ghe...

I set a trap for Chad Austin Sletten, Managing Partner of Sand Castle Winery in Erwinna, PA. I replied to a vile tweet of his, included his real name, and left open the possibility I'm wrong that the anonomous account is him. That account then deleted the tweet, and blocked me. Article soon. 1/2

If you watch the CBS interview with Makary—or any interview with any Trump nominee or appointee—remember this:
