So they removed the black chairman of the Joint Chiefs in the middle of his 4-year tour, without cause, and they're seeking to replace him with a white retired Air Force three-star general who lacks the requisite experience as a service chief or combatant commander? Huh, how about that

If you’re wondering why I declined to talk to the NYTimes, then you haven’t been following my account for very long. They bear a direct responsibility for the current situation we find ourselves in, and I responded by laying out my position and that I would only talk to @jamellebouie.net

Y'know, the Muskrat may be the richest man on Earth, but there is one thing he can't buy: immortality. He may live to be 100 thanks to modern medicine, or even more, but in the end, there will be an end. I hope that thought torments him in the middle of his nights.

One of these creatures uses the sucker disk on its head to attach itself to a large, fat predator and feeds on the bigger creature's shit. The other one is a remora.

A thing I wish I could teach people is that the vast majority of very rich people are deeply stupid. They did not get where they are because of ingenuity or talent. They got there because of compound interest on hereditary wealth and being tax cheats.

Common Cause and the Southern Poverty Law Center created these ads to run as a wrap on the front and back of the Washington Post, plus an ad on the inside. The WaPo refused to run them on the outside of the paper.

We got a Costco membership for the first time in our lives today. They asked why & I said because treat your workers well, you value diversity, & you didn’t cave in to authoritarian demands. He said: “We’ve been getting lots of folks saying that, thanks for joining.” Who needs a gallon of ketchup?

I keep thinking that the people behind Trump and Musk are the ones responsible for the mess the country's in. The Heritage Foundation and their Project 2025 are the core culprits.

So, they sent Vance to Europe to get some serious news media time. I wonder how long it will be before El Presidente Pendejo falls out of that window or down the stairs?

Even worse incompetence: they accidentally fired, then apparently today un-fired, hundreds of the people who manage America's nuclear weapons.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

The Indigenous People of North America have decided to go back to calling the Gulf of Mexico, “Chalchiuhtlicueyecatl”. It is what the Nahuatl People originally called it as it is the domain of the goddess Chalchiuhtlicue, who is assoc w/water bodies, including the Gulf of Mexico.

I have been going through the copy edits for HAZE. I detest "track changes" with a deadly and poisonous hatred. The edits themselves aren't too bad. I only disagree with maybe 2/3s of them. 😸

i am going to put a finer point on this: executive orders are not laws. and they certainly are not royal decrees. they are interpretations of existing law for the purposes of enforcement. the fact that so many people are treating them as laws is actually driving me a bit insane.

This is the Heritage Foundation building in DC, home of Project 2025. Ritzy, isn't it? Goes to show how much money lies behind the coup to kill our democracy. Bastards.

Every time a media outfit — including many 'progressive' ones, refers to Musk's criminal gang by their chosen name (doge), it reinforces the narrative that they're a legit government agency — not the traitors and criminals they are. Repost 👇 or write your own post. We must delegitimize Musk's gang.

The SAVE act would also require that anyone who wants to change their party affliation, get a passport, renew a passport, and other civic actions do it in person. yes, go down there yourself no matter if you're sick or working or whatever.
