Selling a lot of the Pacific Crest trail is the sort of bold thinking we expect from republicans.

Eventually winning in court years after you’ve been beaten into a vegetative state is a very meagre sort of victory.

Aircraft carriers are vulnerable.

Race science is popular among the reactionary so not a surprise.

Whatever it is, I hope it hurts.

Making sure that everything is about Trump?

That horse left the barn ages ago. They know who we are.

It would also be good if they would distinguish deportation, generally understood as releasing people in a foreign country, from sending people directly to foreign prisons.

The ghost of von Steuben would be displeased.

We need von Steuben back. Army was having trouble with that “in step, in time” stuff.

Love the cut and thrust of debate in the marketplace of ideas.

Very cool. I want it.

It looks to me as if Miller is the real head of the DoJ and Homeland Security. Bondi and Noem take orders and do photo ops.

I believe the classic formulation is “pan y polo”. Bread or stick.

Senator, you should be there with the protesters.

I suspect drugs.

I’m impressed that your books are under control. There are even empty spaces!

“Drink their liquor” was the rule of thumb when I was a reporter on my college paper. It was understood that you then wrote whatever the hell you planned on writing anyway. “Take the bribe and fuck them” was the blunter version.

Tariffs are also a factor since Brazilian beef is mixed into ground beef.

I’d like to think that too, but then there’s this: The President Who Became a Prophet www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...

Straws aren’t manly.

I want to hear more about the typology of guys.

Demagoguery is useful. Want Abrego Garcia back? Send the Marines!

And, of course, there’s Gaza, right this fucking minute.

The Owen Stanley range in WW II adds jungly mountains and tropical diseases, but didn’t last as long.

Living in a hole in a flat, wet place for years, surrounded by rotting body parts of people and animals while being shelled a lot,with excursions to charge machine guns through mud, barbed wire and craters filled with foetid water is arguably peak awful.

One of the advantages of being old is that all this will not be my problem much longer.

I’m curious. If someone gave 5-4 a few million bucks, what would you do with it?
comment in response to post
Democrats do very well (roughly an 80/20 split) among people who pay attention. Unfortunately for us all, they have no idea what to do about the stupid, the ignorant, the delusional, and the indifferent, all of whom are part of the electorate in a democracy.

CA has Schiff and Padilla, but you win because of Schumer.

I’m ok with Comey in jail, just not for this.
comment in response to post
Sure it’s dumb, and nearly impossible, but it has its virtues. Mostly as a way of trolling republicans for being weak and unmanly.

What’s more in keeping with our history and traditions than sending in the Marines?

I’d be more impressed if congressional dems attempted to declare war on El Salvador.

Just another day of constitutional crisis.

Police PR departments will be producing and editing selected bits for local television in addition to the footage of cops rescuing ducklings.

What specifically do employers mean when they say new employees lack “resilience”?
comment in response to post
Yes, the masks are off and the court will do whatever is necessary to get the results they want. The 14th amendment now protects white people from discrimination and birthright citizenship may be next.“The question is, which is to be master—that's all".

I’m a Californian so I’ll put my hopes on the slender reeds of the republican senate. On the other hand, is there any evidence that Patel is competent? An incompetent moron maybe the best we can hope for.
comment in response to post
I thought it would work because I assumed that the kind of people who run campaigns would have some data suggesting it would. Apparently not.
comment in response to post
It’s not really about their big wish list. It’s about the people Trump taps to implement it.

Send in the clowns!
