If I told you I was thinking of a racist president who promised to keep America out of war and then because of feckless mindset and inability to withstand pressure took the U.S. to a world war you'd naturally think I was pondering Wilson.

"Here is your country. Cherish these natural wonders, cherish the natural resources, cherish the history and romance as a sacred heritage, for your children and your children's children. Do not let selfish men or greedy interests skin your country of its beauty, its riches or its romance."

The numbers of times that Israel was asked about the day after plan for Gaza and they had no answer should be an indicator of their Iran planning. The "we'll be greeted as liberators" clan should note that did not resolve two wars nor led to successful stable consensus on self-determination.<

So many reasons to dust off a copy of the 25th Ammendment and so few people capable and willing to do it let alone with the ability to read.

Have every supremacist & autocrat on speed dial automatically. Crypto spam calls go right through.

I thought the point of the tariffs was leverage. You don't need leverage to send someone a form letter.

If I was this guy's bishop, we'd be having a talk about keeping your recommend.

I love being Dad every day, but when Dad is the built in excuse for bagel brunch, okay I'm in. Thanks @2areesepiece.bsky.social for everything.

when no one attends your shitty dictator parade

As I just flagged, this has been replaced with something which is arguably worse; requiring that basically every plaintiff seeking a preliminary injunction against the federal government pay millions or billions of dollars in "security" to pay for "costs" to the federal government if they later win.

Well, because we are about to face nuclear war since we happened to globally hit the cycle where all the incompetents are running the show, Spies Like Us seems perfectly reasonable to watch at this time.

There will be a streamer for this on the Bn colors, but thankfully it will be made from tissue paper.

I once met Rich Hall (sniglets) in a bookstore in La Jolla, CA. A couple years later, I saw Gary Coleman buying a rose and chocolates at a Ralph's grocery in LA.

Who will step to be in charge of a new regime if it is also implied that it requires gratitude, if not fealty, to Isreal? And Bibi more specifically (given the state of Gaza).

Some kind of support is the kind of support you can do without. On the flip side, few people will understand and agree with Diddy as Ye would. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/13/a...
