People don't like reading about the President all day. I imagine they will get sick of the President's master, as well.

Today’s mood.

Thirteen kids? When one of these women inevitably shoots Elon (I know something about these matters), I hope it's in his nethers.

Lordy.

That Gulf of America thing goes away next administration, regardless of party.

I'm more of a shoulder pad and big hair guy, myself.

Y'all-- I've been too busy and too disgusted to even look lately.

Agreed, but I don't think there's a chance in hell of that happening.

I don't really know what to tell y'all about the DOGE stuff. The government has been treated for years like the pig in the old joke-- the one where the farmer says "pig like that, you don't eat all at once." You carve a beast down enough, it can no longer stand.

@dicknixon.bsky.social It's not a coup. It's a fait accompli.

@dicknixon.bsky.social People keep saying it's a coup. Hogwash. It's a burglary crossed with political vandalism.

President Nixon raises an important point. We may be looking at a major theme for the term-- Heartless bastards trying to navigate Trump's self-image.

I'll say it again... if Trump and Musk are still on speaking terms by summer, he must have something really bad on the old man.

Still thinking about that salute. I don't like it, and I don't like anyone who makes an excuse for it. The only thing you can say is that Musk may have been higher than a giraffe pu**y when it happened, but that ain't no kinda defense.

What did I tell you? Marco is tight in these circles...

What do you make of the birthright citizenship thing? Constitutional Nothingburger, or opening for the SCOTUS right wing to make a bold move?

They are going to let Trump be Trump for the next 1460 days. Some of his political instincts are precise. But I think people will get sick of hearing from him daily, as they did before.

There are a large number of folks out there who believe the new administration is going to blow the lid off of Flying Saucers, and Senator Parks and Recreation is one of the guys in the mix on that. I seen some odd stuff in my time, but I find it hard to believe they will get anywhere, either way.

I dunno... I'm pretty accustomed to meeting Floridians missing a few teeth...

So, Trump wants the U.S. to own part of TikTok. Does he understand that turning social media into a sort of public utility is kind of, uh, <whispers> socialist, right?

I find it strange that they essentially gave people the long weekend to get the hell out of Chicago. www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

It's on MLK Day. Nobody's working. Despite this, my guess is that ol' Chuck didn't get many requests.

We've had a few incompetent presidents in my time. Thankfully, none have been in Truss' very unique category.

My guess is they're discussing Hilary.

If you're a supercentenarian, you'll understand...

This hits the nail on the head. There's still a great deal of twentieth century thinking going on in Washington. Meanwhile, the G.O.P. is more interested in going back to the eighteenth century...

There's next to zero chance of him doing time. That said, they may be choosing to preserve the conviction and sentencing, making him a felon. It won't affect his ability to serve, but it will probably tick him off, so...

Yes.

The Death of Carter just prior to Trump's Second Inauguration is a reminder that history often maintains a poetic sense of humor.

I think I'm on the record on how I feel about guns and being shot. That said, this terrorism charge is probably going to lead to him going Scot-free and starting his own podcast or some damn thing.

2016-2020 was approximately ten thousand years ago but you may recall that Trump loves to say the craziest shit imaginable to get the media to stop focusing on things that make him look bad We could not fall for it this time. It's an option that we have

He has sunken to new depths.
