Refugee (self-deleted) from Elon as of mid-2023. Why Catherine? A properly functioning moral compass. Sharp as a tack. But you have to want it (not a LOT, but at least a little). I understand. Color me "Open" right now. But '26 may make '28 meaningless.

I want Catherine in the Oval.
Trump claims he will "liberate" LA from the "migrant riots."
"Hey! That bishop is turning. And he's turning onto the wrong color!!"

He lost the 2020 election. He knew it. He lied about it. And now he’s demanding your money because knowingly lying didn’t make him President.
Trump: "It's awfully strange to make a decision where I'm paying myself. But I was damaged very greatly and any money I would get I would give to charity."
You don't say? I mean, is it only because it's something like chess, but played on a board orders of magnitude larger, and all the pieces always move on their own, often without any regard to the rules of the game?
Oh
Tesla’s Autopilot safety data is getting worse
"Mommy. What's a "major news outlet". Is that like TikTok?
Weird and 'infused with a very dangerous sort of creepiness'.
Weird and creepy pretty much sums up MAGA leadership.

Bernie about Platner,

“In all due respect, all right, what I'm worried about, 50,000 Americans may die unnecessarily? And you're worried about a tattoo?"

When I asked about his comments about sexual assault, he said "Have you served four tours of duty?" I said "I have not."

Bernie: "Ok"
It's worse than "crazy corruption". It's extortion & theft from the American taxpayer.

And Trumps' claim, "I will give it all to charity."? I've built hundreds of bridges to satisfy expected demand. 😲🙄 On sale now.

Narrator: That's just what Al Capone did, right? He gave it all to charity, right?
Narrator's note: Books was 36 when he barely escaped becoming a murderer in the Senate chamber.

Illustrating that while politicians can certainly be too old, the youngest can lack a shit ton of judgement.
But it's 𝒂𝒍𝒘𝒂𝒚𝒔 about two simple things in the end:

Money, and Andre Agassi's "Image, is everything."

Narrator: The cane serves a dual purpose, showing off purchasing extravagance, and hinting of violence. It's a Preston Books hand-me-down.

Turns out the Young Repubs are Trumpy in more ways than one

"Trump calls for Ukraine to be carved up after tense meeting with Zelenskyys"

Narrator: 'Carving up' is what fascists do.
How fitting. Right after the national "block party".

You Yanks voted for a man who said out one side of his mouth that he was going to lower the cost of living, and out the other side said I'm going to fuck with people.

You're gonna get it, and some of you deserve it.
I'm thinking about the hydraulic press scene in the original Terminator movie.
Just one more lie among the (gotta be, by now) hundreds of thousands already uttered, and in the worst of faith, by the man.
Talk about a metaphor
Spotted at the White House today:

a backhoe, tearing into the East Wing, as construction on Trump's ballroom gets underway.

In every poll for weeks, Zohran Mamdani has been at 45% (±2). In last week’s poll— commissioned by Fox News —52% of New York City voters are for him. Versus 28% for Cuomo. 🤗

Well look at that—the moron elected on promises to make things more affordable has managed, with his crazy tariffs, to jack up the prices of both U.S.-made *and* imported goods. Lose-lose for American consumers!
Yeah. Was listening to Longwell & Kristol going on about how this proves change is possible. It *is of course, if you have a possibility of fair elections.

I’m not confident in that next year.
Their bar for emperor or King is Napoleon or Henry the 8th. Since he hasn't taken over Venezuela/Canada/Greenland yet nor had Melania/Marla Maples beheaded, by definition he is not a king. Zoomers are quite strict in their definitions.

The 𝒐𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓 guy (Rattler) finished with a higher rating (66-plus) despite THREE picks and his own fumble.

𝑻𝒉𝒂𝒕'𝒔 how bad Williams looked today.
Nice Bears win. Huge day for the D, and the rushing attack.

But Williams looked lost most of the day, finishing with a (gasp) 61.7 rating, vs a secondary most in the league consider pretty incompetent.

It's concerning. Given the great rushing attack, Caleb should have picked them apart.
