The GOP Will Punish Us For Being Alive
Markwayne Mullin, the plumber who would become a Senator, had this to say on health care and they mysterious plan from the administration which has now been two weeks away for almost nine years now, if you include the time that Trump was not in office at all but some people believed that he was: "What the president would like to do is say, hey, if you take care of yourself -- you don't smoke, you don't dip, you're not drinking, you're not overweight, you're working out -- then you should pay less than the guy that obviously is not taking care of himself."

Pirro is another example of someone I do not get - we have the obsequiousness and the desire to be near power, but she is an attorney and she knows that the military is not law enforcement, and that she is willing to lie and defame her own profession for a drooling persimmon is so bizarre to me.

Folks, you don't need to know a lot about labor and material costs to know that the likelihood of a phone being manufactured in the United States in 2025 AD is basically zero.
Senile Satan, Con Junior and Fredo announced their phone in June, promising delivery in August to commemorate a decade since Satan came down the escalator. Not one phone has been delivered and good luck getting a refund. They took 590,000 deposits totaling $59 million.

Even in the aftermath of a tragic death and life cut far too short, he finds a way to brag. Just fucking gross.
Q: Do you plan to attend Sarah's funeral?
TRUMP: I haven't thought about it yet, but it's certainly something I can conceive of. I love West Virginia. You know, I won West Virginia by one of the biggest margins of any president anywhere.

We're starting the fifth season of "Stranger Things", mainly because we watched the first four and we may as well start the last one (and then finish when they release the balance of the episodes at Christmas)

I can believe it unfortunately, and it is still very disappointing. What I don't understand is how anyone is afraid of that thing in the chair that pretends to be a man
I can’t believe people in the room don’t push back. It doesn’t matter if he’s the president, part of holding him accountable is standing up to his bullying— especially if he’s doing it right in front of your face

Over and above the objections of the faculty too. Do not capitulate.
Trump’s extortion campaign continues. This time with Northwestern University reportedly capitulating to the tune of $75 million.

Pete it's because you are threatening the sovereignty of a nation with a long and proud history. It's a stunning and unfathomable betrayal of a friendship that goes back a while.
Pete, without Canadians fending off the Nazis at the Battle Of Groningen, YOU might not be here, you Frisian fuckwit.

US Ambassador to Canada: But let me tell you, I go around the country and people will say, “Pete, you just don’t understand why we’re so mad about the 51st state.” And it’s kind of like, “Yeah, you’re right. I don’t.

Yeah, any peace plan is DOA. Russia has to have its ability to make war ended somehow
⚡️ Putin just ordered a full push to force Russian identity and language onto occupied Ukrainian regions.

The only reliable way out of this is going to be either the end of Putin or the end of Russia's ability to terrorize / invade others. We need not be particular about the means at this point, but the cost would probably be high.
US Army Secretary Dan Driscoll has warned Western diplomats that Russia is stockpiling missiles at a pace that exceeds its current usage, raising fears of a broader future conflict that could extend beyond Ukraine, the NYT reports.
