Why don’t you wear a suit?

WaPo, Page One. “She hoped for change, but not like this” @washingtonpost.com www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

The Oval Office meeting today between Trump and Zelensky “reeked of a planned attack,” @radiofreetom.bsky.social writes. “The Ukrainian leader did his best to stand up to the bullying, but Trump and Vance were playing to the cameras and the MAGA gallery at home.” theatln.tc/5tozgdyn

“I just could not believe what I was seeing. It's President Trump at his worst. President Trump as an ill-mannered bully insulting a war hero. This wasn't an Oval Office photo op. This was an ambush,” - Geraldo Rivera

Brett Baier asks President Zelenskyy on Fox News if he’ll step down after Lindsey Graham said he should: “With all respect to Lindsey…only Ukrainians vote for their president.” 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

The new tartan memorializing the Scottish witch hunts is all kinds of fascinating. I particularly like the gray representing the ashes of those burned. www.tartanregister.gov.uk/tartanDetail...

Reading about the Rupert Murdoch family trust mess. My favorite anecdote is when Rupert’s lawyer cross-examined his son James, trying to get him to admit that his plans to make Fox News more honest would hurt its value because it’s business model was to just tell viewers what they wanted to hear. 👀

Fuzzy math: the house budget passed by the GOP has $1.5 trillion in spending cuts for things like Medicaid. BUT: it has $4.5 trillion in tax cuts. And they’re claiming they’re reducing spending.

MAGA influencers are out in full force tonight, making up things that were not in this resolution. Congrats on getting your $4.5 trillion in tax cuts for the wealthy, $19 trillion in added deficit spending, and $880 billion in Medicaid cuts through this initial step, though.

NEW - Rep. Mark Alford tells fired KC federal workers ‘God has a plan’ at hostile town hall Folks, I've been covering politics for a dozen years in Kansas and Missouri and this is probably the most intense, angry town hall I have ever seen www.kansascity.com/news/politic...

Pritzker: "We're talking about the death of a constitutional republic. That's what happened in Germany in 1933, 1934. And we're seeing today that we've got an administration in Washington that's ignoring court orders."

It’s been close to six months since San Diego Stories published @cowboyjamboree.bsky.social. I’ve had so much fun with events here and on the road. It’s being sold in 6 places in SD. Some Sundays I visit it, leave more, or even collect some $. DM for a signed copy or find one in the world!

Loving the storytelling, historical setting, and fantastical elements in this gem @theandrewkclark.bsky.social. Can attest that it’s a perfect accompaniment for varied libations. Published @cowboyjamboree.bsky.social.

Y’all like my new tshirt

If you’re cheering for a South African sociopath to fuck over US military veterans then you should probably stop with that America first bullshit.
