Living my best life in New Mexico. I’m a chemical engineer who plays guitar (poorly), loves to read, and watches too much sports and too many movies.

Question for my Republican colleagues – how the heck does this lower grocery prices?

It's not a "counternarcotics campaign." It's a murder spree.
Breaking news: U.S. forces killed two people allegedly hauling illicit drugs in the eastern Pacific Ocean off the coast of South America, officials said, marking an expansion of the Trump administration’s deadly counternarcotics campaign.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced the strike but, consistent with others, declined to identify the victims or offer evidence verifying they were hauling narcotics.

The optics of Trump building a ballroom that 99.9% of Americans will never set foot in while millions line up for food banks are worth more than any policy paper or economic proposal. This image is a visceral punch in the mouth that needs no words. It should haunt the GOP for a generation.

This is how a dictatorship works
Trump: "It looks like we're gonna have a Communist as the mayor of New York. But here's the good news -- he's gotta go through the White House. Everything goes through the White House. At least this White House it does."
My mother, my wife, and my 3 daughters all love Witness. There’s no mystery there.
Have you shown her Frantic? That should be the perfect Harrison Ford/French wife film.

People act like all the men are gone. The men are attending protests. The men are putting together scooters for their kids. The men are getting a set of turntables for the first time. The men are buying Nikes. The men are getting super into noir. They're not Nazis and they're fine. Keep your freaks.
The East, uh, East Terrace?
After she walked out I hollered, “I’m sorry if you don’t care why a sitting president was killed. Well, that's the real question, isn't it? Why? The 'How' and the 'Who' is just scenery for the public. Oswald, Ruby, Cuba, the Mafia, keeps 'em guessing like some kind of parlor game. Buy why? Why?”
To be fair after playing Han Solo, Indiana Jones, Deckard, Dr. Richard Kimble, Rusty Sabitch, Jack Ryan, et. al. it’s damn near impossible to accept him as random guy #9.

Either this or “25 years later, a guy got arrested for getting drunk and side-kicking a mailbox and they matched his DNA to four murder scenes.”
every true crime doc: for decades the police tripped over their own dicks and tried to pin the murders on random people and then suddenly someone called and told them exactly what happened

I’m watching it right now, not on VHS, but still. I just got through Donald Sutherland’s 20 minute opus. My wife was a bit perturbed when I asked her to ‘hold on’ until he was finished. After about 3 minutes she walked out to watch Dancing With the Stars.
That might be the only reason to vote for her.

“Trump & his team have made clear this isn't just about drugs — they hope the naval flotilla, covert operations & other pressure points eventually make the situation untenable for Maduro, who has a $50 million bounty on his head, courtesy of Trump.“

He’s after the oil. This is how quagmires begin.

While Secretary Hegseth is out joyriding on $25,000 per hour fighter jets, we have enlisted troops on track for missed paychecks while families are worried about how to afford to put food on the table. Help me make this make sense!?!? Speaker Johnson needs to call the House back, now!

NEW — I'm suing DC Metro Police for the full body cam footage from the DOGE raid on the US Institute of Peace back in March.

The public deserves to know why MPD chose to sell out the people they’re tasked with protecting in order to bend to Trump's will. I'm repped pro bono by @rcfp.org.
