JD Vance whines, video proves him wrong. Musk picks fights with Poland. Trump comtinues to wreck the economy and goes golfing. And more. Catch up with our weekend recap (no paywall):

Trump Tariffs are a tax on the American people. Retaliatory actions hurt American businesses. Antagonizing our largest trading partners is spectacularly dumb. The stock markets are telling you as much. So is your wallet. Demand that your reps end this lunacy. www.cnn.com/2025/03/06/b...

It's telling that Canada started protesting the incredibly dangerous and irresponsible Donald Trump by pulling American products off its shelves before one American foot hit a street in protest. We are lagging behind in our response to fascism-by-the- stupid and need to step up our game.

According to Rachel Maddow, the Trump administration is cutting funding for the sterilizing of instruments for surgery at all VA hospitals, taking our military back to Civil War levels of safe medical care.

Did someone say lamp?

It was for transgenic mice, used for research because you can get a certain human gene in them. There are no transgender mice.

If the "law" does not "require" the government to pay the money it is contractually obligated to pay, the next Democratic administration should impound the salaries of Alito and his clerks

In order to defeat CHAOTIC EVIL… …you’re gonna need CHAOTIC GOOD. Am I right? Level 5 Dungeon Masters, please check in.

Bless the protesters!

re the previous repost: if they can disappear permanent residents they can disappear citizens

This is a hell of a way to tell J.D. to get off his couch.

yeah fuck it nuking my twitter by the end of april. that'll hopefully give me enough time to cherrypick contact with any mutual i haven't tracked down yet

I remember in 2012 when it was like 80 degrees on March 17th in Minneapolis and I was working outside on a patio when Brian Setzer of the Stray Cats walked by dressed as a leprechaun.

A note to those who would prefer to bury their heads in the sand and say, "Don't worry, it'll be over in 4 years": you are putting yourself in harm's way, particularly if it's not over in 4 years.

Watched Monty Python & the Holy Grail tonight. Remembered my dad took me to see it with him in the theater and cried laughing at the moose credits. Nothing had ever been made like this movie before. It’s still great even after seeing it dozens of times.

I ordered the book “How to Scam People” over six months ago and it still hasn’t arrived…

Stay focused!

l Jay Brock 20h • Cutting Medicaid? Allowing Americans to die by throwing them off Medicaid is NOT how you make America great.

In October 1999, Hassett coauthored a book that purportedly calculated that the DJIA (then at 10,273) was grossly undervalued, and would hit 36,000 by 2002–04. On October 9, 2002, the Dow closed at 7,286.27. The index did not reach 36,000 until November 1, 2021. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dow_36,000

Also, I wonder how many of that small number are transgender females?

Really wild that there was a moment in like 2011 where we believed that social media, and Twitter specifically, were going to lead to a new golden age of democracy and human rights.

Is it safe to assume that Russia itself now has access to computers inside the US Treasury, IRS, FAA, FBI, CIA, etc.?

🇺🇦 Wishing all you patriots a better-than-average Saturday night. Fuck fascism. Slava Ukraini. 👊🏼
