The guy shot two random people with a gun, I don't think you can say he wasn't assimilating into our culture

He’s claiming that Congress is being seditious, an attempt to overthrow our government, which is Congress, not the president…
No wonder he’s fine with being a called a despot.

If Bubba is Bubba Wallace, it does make that whole noose threat in 2020 seem a whole lot different… after all, the feds who concluded it wasn’t a threat also claimed Epstein hung himself.

Maybe they should try ordering a healthcare plan from DoorDash if that’s how they’re getting their reports delivered now.

Hard to believe I hit 1k followers. I’ve never concerned myself with attracting followers, but this does feel like a milestone. Thanks for those who feel my ventings, thoughts & wise-assery is worth paying attention to.

I think we’re seeing why Cruz goes by Ted instead of his given name of Fidel.

Mamdani: "My message to ICE agents & to everyone across this city is that everyone will be held to the same standard of the law. If you violate it, you must be held accountable. There is sadly a sense growing that certain people are allowed to violate that law, whether they be POTUS or ICE agents."

YES.
it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions
"Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"
