Remember, Tulsi Gabbard claimed Assad didn’t use chemical weapons, it was “the rebels.” Her confirmation hearing will be brutal, if she even makes it to there

What’s worse? (1) having your mother call you out as a dirt bag in an email published in the New York Times (2) having a porn star you paid $130K in hush money pick little plastic mushrooms depicting you off a tray on the Jimmy Kimmel show

This morning I dragged myself out of bed at 3:00 to head to the West End Bridge in hopes of capturing the moon over PPG Place and the Christmas tree at the Point in #Pittsburgh. Luckily the clouds stayed away for long enough to allow that to happen. Made for an amazing view.

For the first time in a while overdose deaths are declining - seven straight months of declines. The cause is complicated but appears to be the culmination of a number of different Biden admin policy initiatives coming to fruition. And yet it meant absolutely nothing politically.

Time to give @bluesky props. As I write this, there are 560 quotes and replies to the post below. Of those only 4 call me names and give me shit. About 15 do the same towards Trump. The remaining 541 are on topic and add value. 👏👏👏👏👏

No matter what your plans are for tomorrow—Whether you’re working, at home enjoying time to yourself, or spending the day with friends or family, I truly hope you have a wonderful and safe Thursday. We are working on Thanksgiving, because we can’t ever give that cult an inch. Onward.

Never speak to me again about the American justice system. A man with 30 years of reprehensible behavior—sexual assault, rape, economic fraud, corruption, insurrection, and nearly every crime short of murder—has evaded accountability at every turn. #Corruption #Accountability #injustice (1/8)

A whining Rudy Giuliani asked a judge for special treatment today, saying “I have no car, no credit card, no cash, everything I have is tied up, they have put stop orders on my business accounts, and I can’t pay my bills.” I’m sorry, but boo f*cking hoo.
