Same here.

Do you remember, we had a presidential candidate that laughed? That was so embarrassing…….

A guy who heads a right-wing group told Congress today that I am a "Democratic 'super-lawyer' whose partisanship is unrivaled." I feel seen...

TACO BOWL Trump Always Chickens Out Big Old White Loser

Stunning details now emerging: this was an operation planned a year and a half in advance, involved smuggling drones into Russia, placing them in containers on top of trucks, arranging for them all to open simultaneously and to strike.

These attacks on Russian airbases are a huge deal for a thousand reasons. One is that they appear to show Ukrainian saboteurs operating deep inside Russian territory. If that's accurate, these weren't long-range strikes. They were launched from close-in. www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/0...

These are the indicative estimates of Russia’s combat losses as of May 27, according to the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem is under scrutiny for a $50M Gulfstream jet request, funded by the Coast Guard's budget. It's a misuse of taxpayer money and prioritizes luxury over essential services.#AdminOfGrift

How many of you believe that what has been reported as an assassination attempt in Butler was something that was part of something darker and wider-reaching, and that the American people do not have the truth about what actually happened?

Growing up in the '70s I'd read about strongman rulers in far-off places like Asia or Africa who had billion-dollar Swiss bank accounts and mansions in the French Riviera while their citizens were mired in poverty, and wondered how that could be allowed to happen Now I know

Plus, Martian soil is full of poisonous perchlorates which will kill all plant life. It doesn't have enough gravity or magnetic field to hold onto an atmosphere either.

Happy 1st Anniversary to Donald Trump on being found guilty of sexual abuse. 🎂

So many people have grown up to be the villains of our stories.

Please sit down everyone, Steve's Ted talk is about to begin...

I've always loved Paul Rudnick's wit.

Pope Leo XIV: ‘There Couldn’t Be A Better Time To Get The Fuck Out Of America Forever’

rom 1795 through 1956, US currency had the national motto, "E Pluribus Unum,” which means, “From Many, One.” In 1956, it was changed to, “In God We Trust,” for the Cold War to somehow magically defeat godless Communism. We need to lose some god and gain some pride again.

We have now arrived at the "arresting judges" level of fascism.

This is Mojo. He's nervous around new people, so his human put out a bucket of balls to help him make friends with all his new neighbors. Safe to say everyone loves it. 14/10

Bluesky is collegial and interesting, the way Twitter used to be. Bonus: most people can spell.

Trump now vows to be “very nice” to China on tariffs — not by choice, but by necessity. This isn’t strength, it’s a concession masked as charm. The U.S. cannot match China’s global competitiveness, and Trump’s climbdown is less policy than quiet capitulation.

Trump promised peace on day one — nearly 100 days in, Putin is still bombing civilians while playing the U.S. president like a fiddle, writes former Swedish Prime Minister Carl Bildt in his op-ed.

Rinse and repeat for the foreseeable future.

"It's hypocrisy to call yourself a Christian and chase away a refugee or someone seeking help, someone who is hungry or thirsty, toss out someone who is in need of my help. . . . If I say I am Christian, but do these things, I'm a hypocrite." - Pope Francis

Says the guy whose charity was shut down by the state of New York for making illegal campaign contributions.

This is like watching all the animals fleeing inland right before a tsunami. They know what's coming. So did Einstein in 1932 when he left. Doctors Stanley and Snyder are two of the top experts on authoritarianism, and have called it quits. I'll be joining them in Canada this summer.

Shout out to Jeffrey Goldberg for reporting on this now instead of waiting two years to put it in a book.

Remember when team USA beat the Soviets in the 80s? Canada just had that moment and the US were the Soviets this time. Congratulations Canada 🍁

If Hooters had started a home delivery during the pandemic and called it, "Knockers," they wouldn't be bankrupt.

Are we at the point were I have to clear a spot in my attic?

Woof

Do you think JD’s wife has a secret “go bag” ready?

Musk's censorship algorithm on Twitter reduced our audience by about 95% since he bought it. So we moved over to blue sky. Help us build another great following right here where the skies are clear and the water is fine ;-) Please do Follow Retweet & repeat
