The mainstream news media are owned by the same right-wing oligarchs who have supported Trump all along. We should have stopped pretending the media wasn't supporting Trump ten years ago.

After 10 years of this BS I no longer have any faith in a plain reading of any text or in Congress or the media to do anything about violations. Trump could sign an EO suspending the 22nd Amendment, SCOTUS signs off, and all the blog posts saying "that's not how this works" will make no difference.

And when the Supreme Court rules that the 22nd Amendment only bans three CONSECUTIVE terms and waves Trump on to a third term, who's going to do what about it?

Gutter racism facilitated by a compliant toady media.

Bob Alberti @a1batross.bsky.social · 2h

As @jamellebouie.net said only hours ago, just straight-up gutter racism.

You guys, our Internet went down for about six hours, but we're okay! We're okay. We made it thru.

Racial covenant? Gimme the haunted house.

I was not a fan of Norm Coleman, but I just so happened to move from the East Coast to Minnesota the same year that he did. So imagine my delight when during his run for Senate twenty years later I saw him referred to as a carpetbagger in the news. I was, like, "Guess I'll never be a 'local' here."

Why wouldn't he want to admit he's buying her silence? He's bought the silence of lots of people. It's just another Tuesday for him.

I liked the heist, but couldn't watch the dribbling.

"Friends" is a beloved American sitcom that aired from 1994 to 2004, following six young adults—Rachel, Ross, Monica, Chandler, Joey, and Phoebe—living in New York City. The show explores their friendships, romances, careers, and personal growth over ten seasons.

The cast of 'Time Bandits (1983)' featuring LtR Mike Edmonds as "Og," Kenny Baker as "Fidgit," Malcolm Dixon as "Strutter," David Rappaport as "Randall," Tiny Ross as "Vermin," and Jack Purvis as "Wally." They are holding the blueprint map of the Universe's holes and toasting the camera

As I said elsewhere earlier today, you don't remodel a building you intend to leave.

Oh, that reminds me, I should go turn on the AC, getting a mite toasty in here...

In a common imagememe format a car labeled GOP traveling down a highway labeled "Law and Order" has taken a hard right turn at the last second to take an exit labeled "Fascist Chaos"

Y'all know you don't remodel a rental, right? If you're tearing down a wing and building a new ballroom, you're not doing it because you plan to move out in a couple of years.

Librarians are awesome. This is not open for debate.

Odds on how long till the Shitgibbon appears wearing jewels and bragging that he had them stolen from the Louvre.

This can't be right, says here I'm in my 60s

That's what she said

It doesn't matter if something is illegal if nobody is willing to enforce the law.

The people who criticize the No Kings marches as useless are the people who want the No Kings marches to be useless.

He's virtually pooping on Americans and literally tearing down the White House but, sure, it's the other guys who "hate America."
