Releasing the names of covert intelligence officials is a crime. It amounts to #Treason.

And this, by a government official, is the exact free speech suppression the right side has been whining about groundlessly for a decade.
TL:DR racist fascists doing racist/fascist bullshit and trying to get away with it.
Sic 'em.
Have a better day. Here is a 7ft tall clown with a golden voice covering Tom Waits. www.youtube.com/watch?v=aB-S...
And i wish it was done. I mean the move to a multipolar world in terms of currency was inevitable at some point, but Trump has sped it up by decades. Just the tip of what that Chaos Monkey has done that will hurt us long past his expiration date
It is labor day. Remember to punch Sean O Brien right in the yam bag for his actions during the last election if you support labor rights. In fact, use that shit as a speed bag and do your best Mayweather impression.
Musk now supporting the deportation of anyone who isn’t white. *Do not* use the term “remigration”. It’s an attempt to normalise Nazi hate.
I have fought with a few relatives over the idea that the chance of another pandemic is 100%. It WILL happen, just a matter of when. Accurate disease risk assessment is beyond them. If you want to have nightmares about public health, pick the brain of pandemic specialists.
Newsom's media team does a better Trump, for sure. For all his "supremacy", Miller is remarkably awful at so much. Pretty sure I dislike him more than President Yamtits as well.
Come and work for us. You can do from home it in your pyjamas, there are no work socials ever and we will never, ever, refer to our workplace as a family.
Is it anything like the Masochism Tango?
The world’s leading genocide scholars’ association has passed a resolution saying that the legal criteria have been met to establish Israel is committing genocide in Gaza, its president says. There was no immediate response from the Israeli foreign ministry.
He absolutely won't. He is up to his nose in all of this. He has 2 hopes. 1 is that we never return to a regular rule of law or 2. Yamtits signs him a pardon before he kicks off. Drew Ensign has abdicated his responsibility as an officer of the court in myriad ways.
Also, the alt text on .gifs is sometimes the most unintentionally funny shit on bluesky, so if you won't do it to help people, at least do it for the lols.
The LGML case came very close to being JGG redux. But just before the hearing began, the judge decided not to wait. She entered a TRO barring removal of all the children. That made all the difference: DHS already had the kids loaded on planes. One plane even took off (then turned around).
2/2 so when the inevitable smear campaign begins, remember that.
Indeed. The judge and her staff put in an effort that should be turned into a 2 hour thriller of a movie, working 20ish straight hours and at one point got a plane full of kids to turn around and land. Also, she may be the single most accomplished judge in the entirety of our system 1/2
A plane carrying European Commission President Ursula Von der Leyen was hit by radar jamming over Bulgaria in a suspected Russian operation, a spokesperson said Monday. The plane landed safely in Plovdiv airport, the spokesperson added.

I had far too much Tolkein and Glen Cook in my life that I absolutely adore to think magic has to be rigidly defined. I agree on the judgement of stuffing with the caveat that it happens at high velocity.
Did the hooker door him on the way by, maybe?
AM I DEAD
Did he absorb a twin?
There is a lot of this shit the past decade. Being on the same side of something as Bloody Bill Kristol, Liz Cheney, John Bolton? If someone told me that in 2014 it would have been a full on impossible.
Imagine being behind a sewage blockage like Paxton in the polls.
Sounds like we need to welcome more people to the Church of the Holy VPN. I would go with one in Europe who routinely passes independent data evaluations!
I am still reeling from the fact this am, that they had to turn a plane around and land it. A whole ass plane, full of what I presume to be unaccompanied minors they were just gonna yeet.
Between that and Gabbard outing a covert agent of the CIA...not an asset, but a full blown agent! No one has really blinked. I am in holy shit mode about both. That is normally firing squad level shit.
As a pretty heatheny type dude, this is one of the few times I would say your lips to gods' ears and do so with enthusiasm.
This is what happens when you obliterate the presumption of regularity. Endless homework assignments because the court can't trust the government to follow orders in good faith.
Verizon has had nationwide and area isolated outages for the better part of a day, I believe. Saw a coverage map someplace and it was a stunning set of areas
This is breathtaking. Judge Sooknanen actually got them to return a plane full of kids to the runway this morning, an earlier coverage of the implied, and that the Judge basically had to hunt someone down to get a response.
I worked customer service for over 35 years. I know of what I speak on this, maybe nothing else... but on this i got some sauce. People can be black holes of need if you allow it. A person only has so much juice to deal with em.
You need limits. In person friendships, relatives, there is a limit to all those interactions. The online interactions need to have far more strict boundaries for your own health, even more so if your work is public facing.

Ima go turn to dust now. If you type 2800 baud modem or variations thereof into the .gif search, you get nothing. The song of my 20 year old self is lost to the universe.

Hear me out. Nascar patches for your sponsors. Do the same for elected officials.
Also, the auto provided alt text on this one is so unintentionally on the nose ironic, I can't even cope with it right now
Is any Tennessee pol more full of shit that Blackburn? Seems every state has at least one Blackburn or Comer lurking about.
I’m absolutely begging reporters to stop suggesting that Lisa Cook stated that she would use both properties as a principal residence on her mortgage APPLICATIONS Mortgage APPLICATIONS and mortgage AGREEMENTS are not the same thing We have no idea what she represented on the APPLICATIONS
If it makes you feel less a dinosaur I still play nethack/moria/angband.
Its bluesky, almost no one is serious. We are not a serious people.

You normally can't get that dude off a camera with a bucket of ice water and a firehose, and now he is suddenly avoiding them?

Trump is on the Epstein list #TrumpisontheEpsteinlist Release the Epstein files #ReleasetheEpsteinfiles Believe the women #Believethewomen Thank you for your attention to this matter.
I have an old lady neighbor that just waits for people to scream at. She will literally pop out and yell at people to get their dogs off her lawn if they stop to sniff something. She is nuts. I think Trump and her are kin.
You should have posted recipes suddenly, and made a vague remark about meat substitution.
Not like old boy can actually lift his head to cast his gaze skyward any more.
When I see something like this, I half wonder if they are making a horrible attempt at a joke. I think, on the whole, I delete at least half of what I start to write out of discretion. Having said that, the dude is probably what is technically known as "a stupid moron "
Sic 'em.
Holy shit. The get to heaven fundraising email was real? He went full Oral Roberts?!
REMINDER: It’s been 222 days since Trump was sworn in but he has still NOT released the complete Jeffrey Epstein files.
This is how I will know.
I am no rat doctor, but it looks like the mother of all anal warts.

Yep. Been horribly boring lately. I am afraid you will have to discuss different drying speeds of paint. Shame, really
I think he captures the essence. Still not nearly as creepy as the real thing. Good on him to resist putting it on a lathe, and turning it out of spite. I hope i am half that active when I am 30 years younger.
And a lot of it is brutal work in direct sun.
Get em!
I may have let loose a bark of laughter that scattered the pets.
It is fine. Kash keeps an eye on her. Not sure which one, but still.
Plastic does melt after enough friction. You best hope she uses tap to pay and not slide.
HUMOR?! BURN THE NON-BELIEVERS! Next she will have you ....... dancing! The horror! The sin! No fun is allowed here! Only the bitter harvest of the terrible fruit of retribution in the face of your "humor" /torches. /pitchforks! /WET NOODLES!
Oh my. Anna's sarcastic inner narrative voice ain't playing around tonight. Also, if you like that sort of thing, read her work on Lawfare too! /shameless white knighting plug.

I have ended dates over how people have interacted with wait staff, you can be damn sure I will do it faster with maga stuff.
Someone like Hegseth or Bondi, when viewed in a vacuum, are attractive to a lot of people. When you add in everything else, it is as appealing as a Georgia dumpster fire at high noon in July tho.
I don't generally like to bag on looks, but when you make "superiority" your intellectual centerpiece....well, game on. Very few few of these folks approach unconventional attractiveness, it seems, even before you get to know their abhorrent politics.
Yep. If you sit down at the table and can't spot the worst player, I got some real bad news for ya.
Just.... unfortunate. The vast majority of white supremacist types that believe in genetic superiority are anything but.
They had a hissy fit on a made up rumor, much less the reality of it. Jade Helm was Russia's first big run at internet propaganda, and it exceeded all their expectations.
No notes
I don't see the big deal. After all, everyone's political career dies, amirite? I do really wonder if she got blackmailed into the Hegseth vote. Even for a republican she did a fast about face there.
I implemented a policy about November 10th. If I thought someone was the type who would have dropped the dime on Anne Frank, they were out of my life. One can never be 100% certain, of course, but there *are* signs....and hats... and truck flags.
Is it even possible, with how fragmented media consumption is now, to even approach the level of fame of someone like Jackson or Ali? Streets were reportedly nearly empty for the finale of MASH, too.
I am still shocked none of these klan wannabes have dropped a hard r on a live mic yet.
How did people who act and look like villains from dystopian 80's movies get in charge? Don't answer fhat. I am thoroughly depressed enough as is.
Even partial resistance might take the edge off. Next year might be the start of vaccine tourism.
I turn very mid 50's this year and CVS said I could get one, so I got flu, pneumonia and RSV same day. Again, caveats are Nebraska and CVS. Mileage WILL vary I suspect. I had rsv a few years ago and it sucked. Almost killed a family member last year, too.
For an American Heathen, I have some lovely peaty single malts. I view them with love every time I walk by the cabinet.
Hey fingers...it was "overlap". Get good, you stubby little booger pickers.
