LESLEY STAHL: You contributed to the toxic culture. You were out there pounding, insulting people

MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE: You've contributed to it as well

STAHL: I want you to respond to what you have done in terms of insulting people

MTG: I'd like for you to respond to that

OneBC Party has been busy:
- Dallas Brodie tries to erase “Truth and Reconciliation Day”
- Tara Armstrong wants a stat holiday for the Freedom “Dumb” Convoy.

At this point the party should just rebrand as “The Department of Dumbf*ckery” and save everyone the suspense. 😬 FFS

American Coots are one of the regular water foul at my local park in the Pacific Northwest. They act like, and interact with, our local ducks, even though they’re a completely separate species. They’re recognizable by their comically big orange feet. So cute!
American coots (Fulica americana) have white outer undertail coverts, but usually they're inconspicuous. The coots display them when signaling, so maybe this one was trying to tell me something. Photo taken at the Rio Grande in Albuquerque on November 28, 2025.

When you are the imbecilic child of the privileged elite who has become accustomed to spewing nonsense, with no pushback, your entire life, this is the only way you know how to respond to insightful questioning.
Q: You said this suspect was flown in under the Biden admin. But was he granted asylum under your administration?

TRUMP: Uh, when it comes to asylum, when they're flown in, it's very hard to get them out no matter how you want to do it. But we're gonna be getting them all out now. *slams table*

Af my wife’s request, I made pasta and meatballs. I bought grass-fed ground beef, made Italian meatballs, simmered them in a rosee sauce, and served them over fresh linguine.

Watching the Trump administration suffer one humiliating failure after another has been a small comfort amidst his historically cruel, deadly, and disastrous presidency.
DC jury acquitted the Sandwich Guy. Lindsay Halligan can’t even bring an indictment because she’s not legit. Jeanine Pirro couldn't get a conviction because she’s incompetent.

As the judge pointed out, incompetent Pam Bondi completely screwed up the appointment of Halligan in violation of the law.

I really hate it when scientists keep saying that “we need to rebuild trust in science,” because it implies that scientists are to blame for the mistrust rather than the millions of dollars of dark money that have funded political attacks on science in order to advance a far right agenda.

Imagine how many *actual* criminals would be on trial or in prison right now if Harris had won in 2024. Start with Trump’s ~1,500 pardons of Jan 6 insurrectionists and work your way up from there.

Instead, Trump formed a literal army of thugs to round up hard working immigrants and their families.
"'Right now, under federal statutes, President Trump can call us up as the militia,' he said

Rhodes added that he’d like to see Trump 'order us all to come together in our counties under his command'...”
