With the upcoming No Kings protest this month, I thought today would be a great day to re-up the Blue Kansans starter pack. It's grown quite a bit since I first started it last November. 😁

With 11 days until Christmas, the temptation to fall back on Amazon is real. Convenience has a way of erasing memory.
So I’m reposting this as a reminder of what Amazon actually is—and how to resist it.

Think the FIFA ‘peace prize’ was laughably absurd? It was, but the joke’s on us. • Kansas Reflector
If you were appalled by the spectacle of Donald Trump clumsily accepting a peace trophy that looks like a prop from “Night of the Living Dead,” then brace yourself.

Earlier I posted the wrong draft.
This version is similar but better, and—contrary to what several of you have already DM’d me—it is not a geopolitical horror tome.
It’s just a light little satire about a ride on an elevator.
Totally normal.
Nothing ominous at all.
Read it.

OK then, what was the action? What has the Trump admin done? What proposals have they made? They have only ever offered “thoughts and prayers” on social media. Nothing else.

Tyson is shutting down its Lexington, Nebraska plant in January 2026. That’s 3,200 workers gone in one shot, the largest plant shutdown in company history.
Blame Trump’s tariff chaos and the lowest cattle inventories in decades. Tariffs jack up costs. Supply shrinks. Plants close. Towns hollow out.

You know who helped Bannon with his scheme? Kris Kobach!
Steve Bannon ripped off his own followers with his ‘build the wall’ scam. Trump pardons him. Then photos come out showing him hanging out with Jeffrey Epstein AFTER he was charged with child trafficking, and yet he somehow has an audience because really MAGA stands for nothing.

Trump on Americans' healthcare costs going up by 200-300%: "Don't make it sound so bad"
Q: At the end of this year, those extended Obamacare subsidies expire. What's your message to those 24m Americans who will see their premiums go up?
TRUMP: Don't make it sound so bad. Obviously you're a sycophant for Democrats. You're obviously a provider of bad news for Republicans.
