I just listened to Anna's convo with Ben Wittes. The felon has a real THING with dumb blonds, doesn't he? Incredible that she's that stupid.

Thou shalt not support a man who bulldozes the White House to build himself a golden ballroom whilst the government is shut down because he doesn’t want the financial records tying him to Jeffrey Epstein to come out.

This merely reflects what he's doing to the entire nation. A black slime is beginning to creep over us.

omg!

"Demolition crews have begun tearing down part of the White House...

"Construction teams Monday were demolishing a portion of the East Wing, with a backhoe ripping through the structure..."

Mike Johnson: "We're fighting for healthcare as well. Not just in word but in deed. We put in the one big beautiful bill, real reforms to Medicaid to make it work better."

(The bill in fact cuts nearly $1 trillion from Medicaid.)

The president of the United States posted a video of him defecating on the American people. Many in my profession normalized it. This is a big reason why we are where we are.

The felon LOVES that type of crime. Of course he took him out of jail.

The point is that he really DIDN'T win every single swing state...nope. Dems were idiots in not demanding recount after recount after recount.

AWS services and outage: "These issues can happen when systems become overloaded or a key part of the network goes down, and because so many websites and apps rely on AWS, the impact spreads quickly.”

Maybe rethink that "reliance", matey.

Great column by Philly's own @willbunch.bsky.social

The 7 million Americans who took the streets for 'No Kings' made history, and they did something even more important

They got under the skin of Donald Trump and his dictatorial regime, on a day that showed that most Americans love democracy instead

My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/no-k...
Then they fight you: How the No Kings protests are winning America | Will Bunch
A massive turnout of 7 million and a panicked White House showed Saturday why the No Kings protests matter, a lot.

It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than to find a story about No Kings on the NYT homepage

(Only a photo essay in “Most Shared,” since people really want to know about it despite what the editors think)

Yes. The 70somethings I know are super mad. If you’re a boomer whose parents fought in WWII, you fought in and/or protested war in 1960s-70s but either way repped the US, then did okay in American Dream (could afford college & house) a lot of this is a betrayal of what you thought America was about

many conversations I have had with complete normie libs, the kind who have a tote bag from donating to NPR and shop at Whole Foods, involve the kind of rhetoric that under no circumstances should be put on the internet

people are very mad

Thousands seen gathering for the #nokings2 protest in #seattle at the #SeattleCenter. The mass of people marched down 5th Ave into the cities core. 15+ packed blocks on 5th Ave, approximately 1.5 miles of condensed protestors.
