69420 because he's a child and he did about what you'd expect when you ask a child to reform government. He made it a mess and more expensive because of his destruction.

Forgive the earnest post here, but one year ago this week, Global Tetrahedron took over The Onion. We've since brought back the paper and ONN, dramatically increased revenue, and hired more writers and artists. But most importantly, as other places debased themselves, we refused to bend the knee.

Time to stop calling these charades "White House press briefing" and call them what they are: propaganda sessions.

Pritzker: Time to stop wondering if you can trust the nuclear codes to people who don’t know how to organize a group chat. It’s time to stop ignoring the hypocrisy in wearing a big gold cross while announcing the defunding of children’s cancer research…

From this, it looks like, despite what WH says, "a vast majority" of the Eagles didn't come. Maybe just about half give or take. They had to fill the risers with non-players (which is fine, they're part of the org). But does look like most players chose not to attend. No Hurts, Brown, D. Smith...

Yesterday I joined union members, veterans and advocates to say loudly we won’t stand by and allow Donald Trump and Elon Musk to slash 80,000 jobs at the VA.

in New Hampshire, JB Pritzker hits the "simpering timidity" of many Dems: “Fellow Democrats, for far too long we’ve been guilty of listening to a bunch of do-nothing political types who would tell us that America’s house is not on fire,even as the flames are licking their faces"

Old enough to remember when pandemic supply chain issues hit this port hard and it was said to be the collapse of the entire economy and Biden's fault.

I honestly don't know who the audience is, other than insiders and gossipers, for the Atlantic piece/interview with Trump. All that time talking to him (even on his personal cell) and that's the end result of the story?

If you're looking for a leaderboard of Dems doing all the right things to win a primary AND establish themselves as steel-spined for a general election, I put Pritzker up there with Secretary Mayor Pete and lately Sen Booker. AOC and Sen Murphy up there too. Newsom cratering. Other Govs been quiet.

Wait what? Beyond what Fallows says here, Social Security has been made an issue for DECADES. That's why it's called the "third rail," because it is an instant issue as soon as it's touched. Christ almighty.

The out-of-touch elitism from Trump is stunning and begging for @democrats.org focus: -Tariffs causing layoffs, price surges -Trump is designing a new ballroom for the White House -Disease spreading like wildfire, killing kids -Trump is obsessing over adding gold leaf decorations in the Oval 1/

Re: Respecting the office not the man. It's all about how much you'll look past. I sincerely doubt if Trump was rounding up black men or Jews, many innocent, and sending them to foreign prisons w/o due process that some folks would hang with him. So it's all about what you're willing to ignore.
