Confused...they’re convicts, right? Insurrectionists? No particular singing chops? A choir only when they had nothing else to do? And they’re going to the Kennedy Center? This isn’t Kid Rock performing at an Inaugural Ball, this’d be like Triumph the Insult Comic Dog tap-dancing at Carter’s funeral.

The #USPS receives no tax $, has been a federal/independent hybrid since 1970, is one of the largest employers of US veterans, is the most highly-rated federal entity (Pew Research), and is the largest unionized workforce in the US. Or as T called it: "a joke." www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Everything is fine and normal here in the US, just fully normal and not scary at all. www.reddit.com/r/SubredditD... #USPS

But fitting dad tasks into a busy schedule of chainsaw waving at CPAC is harrrrrrrrrrd! (It's somewhat impressive that her Twitter account still exists at all; however, the day is still young).

Podcasts provide not only a break from scrolling, but an unmatched focus on the human voice + underlying emotions. This week, "The Daily" provided exit interviews for fed employees, #fired for "low performance" by #DOGE, that they'd never have received otherwise. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/i...

The Afrikaaner who lied on his visa paperwork and who pockets billions in taxpayers subsidies has deep thoughts about illegal immigrants mooching off the gubmint. Fuck. This. Guy.

Our coup got coupier. Our authoritarianism got more authoritarian. And of course this is stupidity as a battering ram against what is legal and constitutional, because they weaponize stupidity.

So Leon is coming for state-level government, too? If Ben Wikler (possibly the best Dem state chair in decades) is sounding the alarm, I am listening ...

Reporter: Why do you want to be chairman of Kennedy Center board? Trump: Some of the shows were terrible. They were a disgrace. Reporter: Have you seen any shows there? Trump: No, I didn’t go.

I just called my senators' offices. Again. This time, to request that they give Kash Patel a down vote. If I'd emailed them, I would have gotten yet another email letter from Dave McCormick saying "President Trump deserves the team of his choosing." We have really got the drill down, at this point.

Congestion pricing works.

the single most un-american and anti-constitutional statement ever uttered by an american president
