This IDIOT couldn’t name a president who has a street named after him— a street Vance lives on or next to.

JD Vance can name 2 of 8 Ohio presidents, but not the one from Cincinnati, where he lives
Cincinnati resident JD Vance can only name 2 of 8 Ohio presidents. And neither are the one from Cincinnati, whose name is all over the Queen City.

I for one think the Epstein Ballroom will be magnificent. I love the decor theme of “what if Uday Hussein ran a Ramada Inn.” And giving it a theme song everyone will associate with it is a stroke of brilliance! “Thank Heaven for Little Girls” is very catchy.

Climate change??? These people are imbeciles. That’s been an overwhelmingly good issue for progressive (or any) candidates for decades. Look at Jon Krosnick’s work FOR A GENERATION about this issue. Morons.

It’s happening. The takedown of Jimmy Kimmel is likely the start of a campaign to use the murder of Charlie Kirk as a pretext to use the power of the White House to wipe out Trump’s critics and his political opponents.
But we aren’t powerless. We can mobilize and organize. Now.

The free speech activist who built a list of professors he worked to get fired for their speech must be celebrated for his support of free speech, and anyone who quotes his speech accurately in context will be fired and/or face state punishment by the champions of free speech, do I have that right?

We’re watching the Zero Mostel starring The Producers. My wife just said that the Gavin Newsom press office Twitter feed seems… rather similar. Parody is a potent weapon.

So… as a voter and citizen I am actually Donald Trump’s boss. Therefore, as your boss, Donald, I am firing you. That would seem to have more legal standing than Donald’s attempt to fire a Federal Reserve governor. I invite others to join me in firing a felon, sexual offender and possible pedophile.

I just went on Fox News to tell the truth about the redistricting power grab in Texas.
I asked a simple question: “If Republican policies are so popular, why do they need to redraw these maps; why not run on their policies?”
He refused to answer — and cut the interview early.

So… Ghislaine Maxwell’s custody level allows her to leave the minimum security campus for work assignments; much like Jeffrey Epstein was allowed to leave prison as part of the sweetheart deal he got from Alex Acosta that was penned by Alan Dershowitz. h/t #MuellerSheWrote … (Incredible work.)

Firing the BLS head, moving nuclear submarines closer to Russia (maybe) and moving Ghislaine Maxwell to a prison in Texas. The Epstein files must be REALLY bad.

So technically, legally, maybe there is no “client list.” But we already know who flew on his jet, and who was in his address/phone book. John Glenn flew on his jet! So what! What I want to know is what happened to the video records that the FBI supposedly seized from the Manhattan mansion.
