Donnie thinks that Teecher likes it when you throw in capital letters at random here and there. He isn't wrong: he carries his Mrs. Grundy around with him, in that empty space between his ears.

There’s an immigrant taking people’s jobs… his name is Elon Musk. He’s snatching farms, government jobs (even those in which they manage our national security), and definitely those whose jobs are to root out fraud (inspector generals),

A big bravo to Erdogan (pronounced erd-o-o-an, that's what the funny accent means) -- and a big FU to France and Germany for opposing Turkey's acceptance into Europe.

A quick search of Cotton’s accounts show that the first time he posted a single word critical of USAID was 5 days ago, despite serving in the Senate for 10 years and the House before that.

Your fairly typical Latino who works here, saving like crazy to buy that grocery store back home, won't collect their pension: they're subsidizing yours.

This is very very sick. How can Republican Senators, Representatives, and their staffs not be embarrassed out of their skins?

Somebody needs to talk to silly Elon's doctors. Maybe it will occur to some of the people cosigned on his bank loans that they're in danger of being called to pony up the spondulix: www.nytimes.com/2025/01/28/o...

One thing that pisses me right off is that Musk liked and encouraged being taken as Jewish, just a few months ago when it helped his "brand." Um. And his very גוישע pocketbook. 😂😇

@darwinsaves.bsky.social Liked you site -- though I think you may overuse the word "fascist." Most of them are just regular Republicans, ad the problem is getting through to them, not fighting them off. Please follow me back and pass my better stuff on: I liked being "Famous Long Ago."

The reason right-wing crazies say they don't trust government might be that when they get in, _they_ can't be trusted. Of course they trust it enough to be line for what they can get, in my experience. Every farmer in North America, I'm looking at you! 😆 www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/alber...

It is totally obvious that the taxes are "on Columbia's coffee." This is as clear as the fact that the Earth is flat and if you sail too far you will obviously fall over the edge and down into Hell. How do we know that? Volcanoes prove it. Duh. Don't you believe in science?

This is a really stupid idea. Poseur politics at its most solipsistic. Gains no new supporters, just feeds smirking self-satisfied idiocy. What we want is America 1964: LBJ, but without JFK's chickenshit invade-Cuba, stomp-Vietnam neuroticism.

@gtconway.bsky.social Would you remind your Republican friends that Canada is ten Provinces, three Territories, and a number of tribal Treaty areas, some of Senatorial power, wealth, and authority. This would get 26 Senators right away, more later, enough to kill the Republican Party ker-splatt.

But only 50.01% voted against him, and that's not enough given the way the Constitution and Electoral College are set up... The 2026 Midterms are important. For the Constitution, it's vital to have 26++ sane State legislatures before the next census, to prevent cheating in 2029~31.

This is important. Solid. Simple. Central. The source is called The Institute on Taxation and Social Policy. itep.org I suggest people look them up and then make sure that one or two people from your old-style paper weeklies in your area get to know about them. Facts with local people matter.
