French Senator Claude Malhuret: "Washington has become Nero’s court, with an incendiary emperor, submissive courtiers and a jester high on ketamine... We were at war with a dictator, we are now at war with a dictator backed by a traitor."

When 🤡 buy newspapers.

This is incredible to witness. Sen. Glenn Grothman checks his notes, so he obviously planned to say these things —yet delivers a masterclass in being completely out of touch. This is exactly what people mean when they say their representatives don’t get it. Cringe!

Having watched every episode of The Traitors (US, UK, and Aus), I'm super excited for when The Traitors (White House) gets to the Traitor-on-Traitor part of the season.

Primary. Every. Democrat. They do not understand the assignment.

The most recent social media communication from the highest ranking democrat in the house is over 9 hours ago. This party has no leadership.

It’s Garden District season!

Making pool content the equivalent of "handout" material, and nearly unusable by most news orgs.

Side note. There are eight members of the joint chiefs. the chair is black. the CNO (navy) is a woman. the other six are white guys. chair and the cno got fired tonight.

Women in my community are organizing to go in on Costco purchases together (ie, dividing up packs of 12 toothbrushes across three households, etc.) to avoid Target. I don't know if it's sustainable, but progressive suburban moms are *mad.*

fact check: since congestion pricing started, subway crime is down 36%.

So the next James Bond is 007 getting bought out by a real life Bond villain? www.bbc.com/news/article...

Interesting read for those continuing to justify their ongoing use of Zuckerberg's products. Food for thought if you will.

REVEALED: we identified the operator of an overtly racist X account, "GlomarResponder," as ICE Assistant Chief Counsel James Rodden, based on an overwhelming number of biographical details matched through publicly available documents, other social media activity, and courtroom observation.

Dear media: Please do not waste time hyperventilating about this dumb comment. It’s intended to be a distraction from all of the damaging actions he’s taking. Focus on those.

Somone please threaten to primary my Congressional Rep you have my vote already

More "accidental" firings.

The year is 2025: We’re selling loose eggs for a dollar, planes are falling out of the sky, the President is selling crypto, and we’ve fired the people in charge of the nuclear weapons via email.

How was this contract awarded??!

American planes are crashing almost every day and the Secretary of Transportation is visiting the Daytona 500 and tweeting at Pete Buttigieg.

Last night, we broke the news that the top US election security watchdog has frozen all of its election security work and is reviewing everything it has done to help state and local officials secure their elections for the past eight years. https://wrd.cm/3QkfGh3

I think the people in charge of the US govt should know who manages America’s nuclear arsenal, or at least take a few minutes to look that up before removing some people who do it without cause or replacements. Sorry to get so partisan, but that’s how I feel. I’ll try to be less politically biased.

The Stonewall Inn released a response to the National Parks Service removing the word transgender from the park outside of the Inn. A great reminder that we have to look after each other

This is how federal workers are being treated www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...
