Gonna pin this right here. Stock up. Plan on it. I’ll refer to this often.

Suggestion: I’d love to see a girl’s chat between you two. Sisters-in-Law style.

Well I was being facetious, of course.

1) They can be vetted by examining their profiles

Did anyone really expect Johnson to express concern or horror, or condemn political violence or threats? Certain things fall under the “no surprise” category.

😭 I miss him so bad

Cynical Citizen ❌👑 @madlymyself.bsky.social · 5h

I know. Me too. *pats you on the back*
Honestly I hope they can prop him up a bit longer so he can keep saying stupid sh**, with Republicans parroting the whole absurdity so voters can see what NOT to vote for.

Are we going to be able to put things back the way they were?

Did you watch the confirmations in the Senate after the failed vote to reopen the government? They were all acting so smug. Infuriating!!

Cynical Citizen ❌👑 @madlymyself.bsky.social · 6h

Why not? Pfffff. It’s all so absurd. I’m just 🤷🏼‍♀️.

This demolition debacle is hilarious. Did they seriously think nobody would notice and that people would comply with their “order” not to share??

I’m reminded of an episode of Family Guy, when Stewie Griffin was shouting out of a gaping hole in the roof of the house, “I don’t like change!!”

Right? Trump has done so much for women in this administration. 🙄 He just keeps hiring spokesmodels for critical positions, because he thinks juries and judges will be as dazzled as he is by watching their lips. 👄

EXCLUSIVE: One Saturday afternoon in October, my phone lit up with a notification.

I glanced down at the message.

“Anna, Lindsey Halligan here,” it began.

So began my text exchange with the woman who is prosecuting the president's perceived political enemies.

Did you hear about the memo sent to Treasury Department employees ordering them not to take pictures of the demolition? (The Treasury Department has full view of this travesty.)

Cynical Citizen ❌👑 @madlymyself.bsky.social · 6h

I’m reminded of that Chinese food delivery guy that outran them on his bike. 🤣

This little tidbit is interesting 🧐
“Treasury employees received an email Monday evening telling them not to document the demolition, the Wall Street Journal reported.

Does anyone remember at the first of his first term, saying, “This place is a dump.”
