Prices are about to shoot through the roof because Trump decided to talk out of his ass about making Canada a state and the Mexican President told him to fuck off. That's it. Don't dare fucking cry or blame Biden for any of it. This is the Republican recession.

The Senate just received another report that Pete Hegseth is too drunk and abusive to be our Defense Secretary. This is not a one off. Report after report of alcohol, assault, harassment. This is a pattern of abuse. We need answers, not a rushed vote.

Biden preemptively pardoned J6 police officers who were beaten and injured, to protect them against retribution from the insurrection leader because they dared to testify truthfully before Congress. Trump pardoned the thugs who beat them.

Remember those speeches by Merrick Garland where he assured us, “No one is above the law”? Yeah…bullshit. Merrick Garland is leaving a legacy saying, "Okay, yeah...some people are above the law. But wasn't that a good speech?!"

It's hard being lectured on morality by men who cheat on their wives. As they sternly quote the words of the Bible, and tell you to pull the log out of your eye, when you have never once gotten hammered drunk and fucked random people behind the back of your spouse hundreds of times.

Given that Judge Cannon just DENIED defendants Nauta & De Oliveira's emergency motion to prevent the release of Vol. 1 of Jack Smith's report documenting Trump's attempt to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election, we could see the report as early as today.

Judge Cannon concedes she has no basis to block release of Jack Smith’s report on Jan 6 attack, though she is still dragging her feet on Mar-a-Lago report as Jan 20 nears. Unless we get more judicial craziness, we should see J6 volume at midnight tonight.

Twitter got rid of content moderation and what happened? Revenues declined but stupid tweets by your cousin’s friend about stopping the polio vaccine increased. I expect any platform that gets rid of content moderation will also see more disinformation, and a decline in revenues.

Judge Cannon issued an injunction barring issuance of the Smith report, without waiting for DOJ to be heard, without facts about the report, and no pending case before her. She barred the report on the J6 case, which was not before her. She barred DOJ from talking with the WH too.
