See the issue is that Trump ran on releasing on the Epstein files, and Bondi said she had them sitting on her desk ready to go, and then Elon Musk tweeted that Trump was in them and they were suddenly deemed a hoax and Ghislaine was moved to a spa prison, so you can understand the fresh intrigue
Mike Johnson: "Suddenly now, they've somehow convinced themselves that the Epstein files will be damaging to President Trump and Republicans in some way that they've imagined, and so they feign outrage."
I adore him too! 🥰 Yes, I love this piece, ylissebian is so talented. I’m very in favor of artists capturing Frenchie’s delightful habit of crouching/perching on things
Most of my Our Flag Means Death fanart collection is Ed and Stede, separately or together, but more recently, I've been getting more crew stuff. Especially Frenchie, obviously! This very cute print is from ylissebian--happy Ace Week! 🖤🤍💜

Yelena Belova, Black Widow

Celebrating Ace Week with my girl Yelena! I loved her as soon as we met her in Black Widow, and I've adored her in every MCU appearance since then. She has my shield and my heart, always 🖤🤍💜

I know we've gotten jaded to this, but his utter lack of empathy still shocks. 50,000 people is mentioned only in comparison to 1,200 and is written off because they will be replaced with younger people? He talks about people they way a beef processor talks about cattle.
Trump: "Israel can say that 'we killed 50,000' and so you'd say it's a whole net set of people. And it is. They get replaced by other people. Young people."
Oh my god, his gross little laugh when he says Gaza is “nothing but rubble, so it’s not too hard to top that”
BARTIROMO: You said you wanted to develop Gaza. Do you have plans for that?

TRUMP: I liked it as, like, freedom place you call it. And we would get all of the people that live there into decent homes throughout the region. Egypt has a lot of land, Jordan has a lot of land.

Not being even vaguely sarcastic:

At some point, a journalist needs to ask Johnson “you regularly claim you have no idea what your own government is doing. If we take you at your word, how are you so poorly informed, and do you this level of ignorance should disqualify you as speaker?”
Q: What's your message to the 170 US citizens who have been detained by ICE? About 20 of them are children

MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know what you're talking about with the children. I haven't seen that so I'm not going to comment on it.
Martin doesn’t have wilderness skills, survival skills, or street smarts. But he’s here, he’s trying, and he doesn’t want to die. And, wonderfully, he also really wants to be there for Alma in the way that she’s there for him. Joel Fry's dynamic with Ellora Torchia is excellent throughout 4/4
Alma is hyper competent and half Martin’s size, and she’s determined to get him through this safely. Martin is my hurt/comfort babygirl who's having the worst week of his life, even before all the creepy, trippy stuff really gets started. My man is not equipped to handle any of this 3/
It's a There's Something Strange in the Woods story, where scientist Martin and park guide Alma get more than they bargained for while running supplies to one of his colleagues at a remote research camp. If not for Martin and Alma, the film probably wouldn't stick with me, but I adore them both 2/
Martin Lowery, In the Earth

This science-meets-religion folklore horror film is wild, and I still don’t know what to make of it. It’s interesting, brutal, and trippy. But I found myself with oodles of affection for the two main characters, and Joel Fry is fantastic in it! 1/

As you may have noticed, white supremacists want to stop the influx of hardworking young people (aka immigration) while somehow forcing white women to have lots more babies to compensate, but they refuse to make having kids more affordable and less arduous an experience.
RFK Jr: "When my uncle was president, the fertility rate in this country was 3.5%. Today it is 1.6%. The replacement rate -- in other words the amount of fertility you need to keep your population even -- is 2.1%. We are below replacement. That is a national security threat to our country."

Somehow it's only "demonizing half of the country" when Democrats mildly criticize Trump supporters. This just doesn't count
Leavitt: "The Democrat Party's main constituency is made up of Hamas terrorists, illegal aliens, and violent criminals."

I too don't want anyone taking medical advice from RFK, but guess who voted to confirm him as the person people should take medical advice from.
Thune: "If I were a woman I'd be talking to my doctor and not taking advice from RFK"

everyone on that stage went along with pardons for jan 6 participants
Mike Johnson: "They berated a Capitol police officer, screamed at him. He was merely standing his post. It shows, again, their disdain for law enforcement, the Democrats, screaming, assaulting officers."

He really said "skill issue" at charlie's memorial
Trump at the Charlie Kirk memorial event: "They fired sniper rifles at ICE agents, and me. But I made a turn at a good time. I made a turn at a good time. Charlie couldn't believe it, actually."
In love with this Wicked artwork from @clakearts.bsky.social --it's my first one with Fiyero in it, and it's so cool! Can't wait until For Good!

It's a strange state of affairs where world leaders have to consider whether public support of Trump's Nobel Prize quest can get them, say, a tariff reduction of 5 percentage points.
Johnson: "Together with my friend Speaker Ohana of the Israeli Knesset we're going to rally speakers and presidents of parliaments around the world so we will jointly nominate President Donald J Trump for next year's Nobel Prize. No one has ever deserved that prize more & that is an objective fact."

Harley Quinn, Birds of Prey

Harley has been great throughout her time in the DC movies, but IMHO she's at her absolute best in Birds of Prey. Love that movie, and love this figure--the *sandwich*, just perfect!

“we are telling you right now that we do not intend to honor anything we agree to” is certainly a negotiating position one can take
Q: Rescission are something Dems have said is a reason for a lack of trust. What rescissions are you discussing?

JOHNSON: We have more than $37t in debt. We're doing everything we can to get us back to sound fiscal responsibility. What does that include? A rescission package is part of our process
Naturally, this impacts the performances, including Joel Fry's. For much of the film, Patrick doesn't really display enough urgency for their situation, and he gets jerked around by the script as needed. This adds up to a lot of internal inconsistency, despite Joel's efforts to make it all work 3/3
As Anne and Patrick investigate the Queen Mary after something strange happens to their son, the narrative structure holds back information for the sake of dramatic reveals later on. This obscures what they do and don’t already know, so their reactions to the ghosts often feel underwhelming 2/
