If you asked somebody to write a story about a group of hundreds of millions of people being stupid they never could have came up with this even if they were trying. Because that's how stupid it all is. It's unfathomably stupid and it will remain that way and so will this country.

Good job giving that guy the most powerful and important job, idiots.

He has. And the only way he could have that work in this case is to bribe the judges and juries. And that's going to be pretty tough. But again he doesn't think like a normal fully developed human being that has a fully developed brain. "THEY INDICT ME! THEY BAD! I GOOD! I INDICT THEM!"

He’s gone his whole life being able to get whatever he wants via money and threats.

He thinks like a child so he hasn't figured out yet that people don't just get convicted because you want them to be guilty. They have to actually be guilty in front of a judge and a jury. But again he thinks like a 5-year-old so he hasn't figured this out yet. The fucking president is clueless.

When Judge Immergut ruled against him saying his description of Portland was untethered from reality, he got mad at the people who suggested her, said they were incompetent. It's never that the shit he tries to do is wildly illegal, nope, it's those communist judges appointed by <checks notes> him.

Yes. Because again he thinks like a child. He's not even cognitively advanced enough to actually think this through and finish the thought that would tell him that he's the person that appointed her. And of course he assumed that she was a man. Because he's the dumbest person on the planet.

Yet another example of what I've been saying for years which is that he's never going to be happy with his department of justice or anybody in the end. Because nobody is going to be able to do what he wants them to do. Even if they get an indictment it's not going to work out in court.

Extraordinary NYT story:

Trump’s DOJ pressured out another US Attorney in WESTERN Virginia for finding that a grand jury probe his bosses demanded was unwarranted.

They wanted a case discrediting the Russia probe — evidence be damned. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/14/u...

You couldn’t make Blazing Saddles today.

It takes way longer than one day to make a movie. If you wanted to make Blazing Saddles by today, you should have started months ago.

Ok folks: what is your favorite fact that you share with people (maybe a bit too) eagerly?

Several decades late to this party but just had my mind blown that Andrew Robinson, who played Garak on DS9, is the same actor who played the Scorpio killer in Dirty Harry and Larry Cotton in the original Hellraiser.

I was today years old when I found out Garak from DS9 and Scorpio from Dirty Harry were played by the same actor. #mindblown

Deep Space Nine S1:E3 "Past Prologue" introduced the character "Plain, Simple Garak". Great to find out that the actor that plays him was the bad guy "Scorpio" in the first Dirty Harry movie.

I don't know who else was in the running for the role but I couldn't imagine anyone else but Andrew J. Robinson delivering the multi-faceted depth that Garak requires.

The Cardassian exile who is perfectly described by Bashir as "a man of many hidden talents." Awesome writing and acting. ☺️
