What a truly disgusting week for American journalism.
Eternally optimistic that love and joy will overcome hate and fear. Just might take a bit longer than I had hoped.

What a truly disgusting week for American journalism.
If I don't see multiple ~media reporters~ columns about the extraordinarily irresponsible Wall Street Journal report from yesterday morning — and their extensive promotion of that inflammatory report — you all should just pack up and go home.
The birthday book is clear: there was a cabal of rich, powerful people (mostly men) whose fondest memories with Jeffrey Epstein involved trafficking young girls for sex—trading them like baseball cards—and one of them is the current American president. You’re cool with this or you’re not. That’s it.
Sure seems that way. 😕 🇺🇸
Completely agree. It’s absolutely outrageous that nobody stood up for @yamiche.bsky.social — media spinelessness has played a major role in how we got here.
Fuck Ronald Reagan. I still remember him dumping institutionalized mentally challenged people on the street with no help or guidance.
Everything this gentleman said. EVERY. FUCKING. WORD. 🎯🎯🎯👇
The new ICE song by Jesse Welles nails it. ICE isn’t recruiting heroes, it’s recruiting the bitter, the rejected, the ones desperate for a badge to cover their failures. Losers with power become the most dangerous kind. (c/o Caroline Codsi)

THIS👇All gdamned day 😡
Walz: "It boggles my damn mind that in the midst of a military takeover of our cities, the flaunting of the rule of law, that the press finds the need to talk about, 'Oh, there's a division in the Dem Party.' There's a division in my damn house & we're still married and things are good. That's life"
Newsom: We can’t do things the way we’ve done. Let’s disabuse ourselves of that. The Democratic Party needs to assert itself. We need to be strong again. Strength matters. People want conviction. They want character. They want a sense of intention and purpose…
We've got that heat up here as well for the next 5 or 6 days. Looking forward to fall.
I don't think it can be understated how DT has used intimidation to destroy our country and its systems of checks and balances, our institutions, and basic freedoms. He has weaponized social media & armed his propagandized cult members with the power of the state. He instigates death threats.
#DontForgetTheEpsteinFiles
Democrats spend far too much time thinking and talking about how to attack Trump & his party. No one attack ever works in politics. What does work is a commitment to sustained aggression. Attack, attack, attack. How Newsom is attacking is much less important than the fact that he is attacking.
Deplorable.
This would explain a lot.
I'm howling.
Crow: "Look at what happened. US military personnel in uniform literally were on hands & knees rolling out a red carpet for the most murderous dictator of the 21st century...we keep on acting like Putin deserves to be brought out in open like any of head of state. This is a historic embarrassment."
#TrumpIsPutinsBitch
💯
The upward redistribution of wealth over the past 50 years has shifted $80 trillion from the bottom 90% of Americans to the top 1%. That’s $80 trillion that would have gone into the paychecks of the working class. The greatest trick of all is trickle-down economics.
🚨Holy Shit‼️Arnold Schwarzenegger is not happy about the Trump/Putin meeting in Alaska. He says Trump stood there like a wet noodle, like a fanboy. This wasn’t a show of strength this was Putin owning Trump’s ass over and over again. So Low-T, So Beta! #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles

And several of the police from Jan 6 died or were hospitalized!
Glad to see you are getting settled and enjoying your new home.

MAGA, where stupidity and ignorance is a virtue.
She’s right again, you know. She usually is.
Yet another failure by the mainstream media. Corporate-owned media is beyond worthless. 😠
Waiting for news outlets and reporters to acknowledge that maybe, just maybe, reporting Trump's social media posts on foreign policy without confirmation is deeply irresponsible and an embarrassing failure of journalism.

I'm just plain sick of legacy media period.
You both deserve a break and a chance to enjoy what you've accomplished. There will always be something that needs doing.
I tell my wife " I'll get around to it. You don't have to remind me every 6 months."
It's like they compete to see who can suck up to him the most.
They are both young, smart and outspoken.
Governor Tim Walz, "The way our nation moves forward is not through hate. It is not through violence. It is through humility, and grace, and compassion.
I think it would be good to get some women in charge of the countries that have nuclear weapons. Women talk to each other. Women can be reasonable. Enough with the macho men and swinging dicks.
Whoa! Walmart heiress Christy Walton took out this #NoKings ad against Trump and his fascist authoritarian regime's Nazification of America. In a country of feckless, greed-driven billionaires like Bill Ackman and Marc Andreessen, it's rare to find patriots like Christy Walton.
If the federal government had the goods on Kilmar Abrego Garcia, they should have prosecuted him consistent with the due process of law and not railroaded him into a dangerous prison despite his protected status. This is a vindictive abuse of the system. Pure and simple.
😔
Seems like an appropriate time to repost this
If Harvard is committing “ideological capture” (not a thing, and CERTAINLY not Federal Law), what do you call what Liberty University, Oral Roberts University, Ohio Christian University and bible/right-leaning schools are doing? Or is it only bad when it’s not YOUR ideology? Fucking hypocrites.
Why aren’t Dems on everything talking about the Joni Ernst “you can die” bill?
I don’t know how many times we have to say this, but the U.S. government is not a business and shouldn’t be run like one. It’s a service—for the people.
We are definitely hooked.
We're half way through the first season.
Speak Truth......💯🎯🔥
And it's made in China.
CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%. Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?
Trump and Republicans are fighting for an America where is harder for you to put food on the table and easier for billionaires to buy another yacht. Their budget cuts billions from Medicaid and food assistance just to feed the rich.
Ah another day another market manipulation by the toddler in chief!
Thanks for the recommendation. Just added book 1 to my library.
Rosen to Rubio: "I'm not even mad anymore about your complicity in this administration's destruction of US global leadership. I'm simply disappointed. And I wonder if your proud of yourself in this moment when you go home to your family ... I know you know this in your heart."
I'm sure you'll figure it out. If the size of your furniture is your main problem at this point I'd say you're doing pretty good. Have a great day!
1800 sq ft is the size of the house we bought here in Oregon when we moved back a few years ago. Single story and plenty of room for us at this point in our lives. It's good your getting to the point you can put all the disruption behind you and start enjoying your life again.
Marco Rubio has been visited by the nocturnal soul-suckers and he got the deluxe treatment.
Glad to see you are feeling better and settling in to your new home.
“The press doesn't give a shit.”
He did the job. End of story. The government and media needs to be honest now whether the current president is capable of doing the job, starting with the oath he took to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States.
Class and dignity in everything.
No one looks as horrible as Jake Tapper does right now. May his book rot on shelves wherever good people gather.

Sure, let’s dissect the mental and physical acuity of the former president who sought to make lives in America better while minimizing the reality of a deranged arsonist dismantling the country we’ve known and loved. What a failure to meet this moment.
You'd think a criminal who insists he was falsely accused and convicted would cherish due process more than this fascist weirdo.
When will voters ever learn that the GOP is not the fiscally responsible party?
I’m liking this new Pope a lot. And I’m not even Catholic!
And the Qatari royal family has been unsuccessfully trying to sell it for five years.
So Joe Biden was allegedly feeble and absent minded, but he still ran the country well and not into the damn ground like Donald Trump? I’d take Biden over this mess any day.
