Wild to think that the United States is going to have to undergo the process of detrumpification. We're going to have to scrape his name off so many buildings, programs, etc. What a fucking egotistical prick he is.

Saw the immediate aftermath of a bicycle vs cargo van today. Cyclist was oriented and alert and staying put because she was (and I sincerely hope still is) six months pregnant. Driver of the van asked me "What did I hit?"

"A person," I said. He looked desperately sad.

Please be careful.

The worst part of all this (and there's a lot that's bad here) is that when you hear the man speak it's obvious that he's a complete fucking moron. I'm not talking about awkwardness or tics or whatever. He's just fucking stupid, failing his way upward and taking the world down with him.
The world’s richest person just hit another major milestone thanks to the soaring valuation of his rocket maker SpaceX.

I think The Onion’s point was that there should be better prevention here, not that it should happen regularly in more places.

Looking at the headlines about the horror in Bondi Beach today, and sure enough, Faux "News" has grainy passport photos of Arab men, while everyone else has photos of ambulances, or photos of Ahmed al Ahmed, the man who disarmed one of the attackers.

Sick and tired of the #Dodgers and their pay-to-win bullshit. MLB really needs to address competitive balance.

If you’re wondering why Democratic staffers are happily leaking photos of Epstein with the likes of Bill Clinton and Larry Summers you’re really not paying attention.

The parties (and their voters) are *not* the same.

The Dems are not perfect and have ample problems.

But GOP is different.

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.

Watch this. Then remember that the president doesn’t care. He cares that his old ass gets richer in the hand full of years he may have left.

And his sick rich friends. The most corrupt evil man to ever serve as president is ignoring real evil
💔 A European Parliament interpreter could not hold back tears during the speech of 11-year-old Roman Oleksiv from Lviv.

The boy survived a missile strike on Vinnytsia on July 14, 2022, which killed his mother - it was the last time he saw her alive.

GLASHEEN: Antifa is our primary concern right now. That's the most immediate violent threat we're facing

BENNIE THOMPSON: Where is antifa headquartered?

GLASHEEN: ... ... ... we are building out the infrastructure right now

THOMPSON: What does that mean?
