I believe Herr Miller has access to the autopen. Or Suzie whats-her-name
This is truly incredible: Meidas Canada just surpassed 100,000 YouTube subscribers on DAY 1! Congratulations to Charlie Angus and the Maple Meidas for making this launch such a tremendous success. This is just the beginning as we fight fascism worldwide! 👉 YouTube.com/@meidascanada
Oh yes-sirree!
As Marshall Sam Gerard quite aptly said "I DON'T CARE"
Jake Tapper is right on it, just as soon as he finds his 4H and sharpener..
Good luck to all you folks who are willing and able to to find a labour day demonstration to show your total disgust with this govt. Go forth with heads held high and voices filled with defiance.
One of the biggest tragedies of this admin is that the GOP Congress has stood silent and let trump neuter them, sewing their mouths shut and making them impotent.
share of americans who now oppose sending more military aid to israel: 60% share that support: 32% (highest opposition and lowest support to date) - quinnipiac poll
Indeed.
I believe your last sentence should be directed to Neil deGrasse Tyson or Prof Galloway or some such. For me to think on that would require a Newfie companion and a bottle of Screech
True enuff. I would like to think that as inflation bites and their cost of living goes up more than it is now, that admitting that bit about the lying may surface in their subconcious. Not holding my breath tho..
I love it when Vance says shit like this, because it never goes away. Should he decide to run for prez the media et al can throw this and other nonsensical shite that's emitted from his lips back at him.
There are a few magats coming out publicly and grieving their choice, although our subject above does seem a little dense on the face of it. I think they have to do their regrets publicly as a form of catharsis. They may suspect they'll get jumped on, and we should, but applaud the switch being 🔛
The roots of an economy stretch far and wide. The old "butterfly flaps it's wings" analogy come to mind.
AIPAC uses their money as a cudgel and a bribe. Maybe the Dems have to find another source or do without.
I apologise if my initial response was blasé. It's just that I still fail to understand how the wealthiest country in the West does not wish for some kind of universal health care. "Socialism" is the usual response, yet the Govt gives handouts to farmers and now takes a stake in Intel. Hypocrites!
Er, yes, that's an insane amount. It really sucks to have universal health coverage. Oh, wait, you don't have that do you..🤭
I'm actually thinking that the best thing Cali can do right now is pass a "permissive open carry" law; because most of those ICE cosplayers can't read, maybe having a few people carrying Glocks or AR 15's instead of video phones might give them pause before they knock on doors.
Miller..." and the protesters, they're here, advocating for the 1%, the criminals, the childers?, the rapists, the drug dealers.." Wow, I didn't know that that cohort was now regarded (in Miller's nazi pea brain) as being in the 1%. That's a jump in anyone's imagination. On 2 dolls Pardon list.
Poutine whispers in tRumps ear "mail in ballots bad" Baby-man-child proclaims "mail in ballots bad" Unknown maga congressman comes out from the shadows panting in obeisance "I can run with that."
Probably the best description I have come across of this excrement, this orange jobbie, masquerading as a leader of what was, and still can be, a great country.
I keep sayin', the more interested parties across the world see shit like this the more the WC and Olympics will be a social and financial catastophe. Fans from all countries should legitimately be very cautious if they are thinking of coming to the US next year.
More news clips of this overreaching military farce will definitely keep visitors away from attending the Olympics and the World Cup. Both events should be moved to other more safe countries. The “behavior” of our citizens warrants this immediate change. WE ARE NOT WORTHY!
"Is there a reason of going up and down the escalator repeatedly?" Zeteo's @premthakker.bsky.social follows HSI and FBI agents as they go after... fare evaders in DC. And gets into a bit of a debate with a police sergeant. Watch/share/subscribe:
I translated it for you .... This is an interesting topic, but I think we shouldn't fixate on the past, but rather address the question of "We all know and yet." What is it that we all know, but still don't do?
I am sure the day will come when this govt of Netanyahu will be considered the basest of all Israeli administrations. And what gets to me is that as soon as there is any criticism, he wields "anti-semitism" as a hammer to shut down any complaints people may have. Look to the Australia ban today.
Just to clarify, the Guardian was reporting what the jobbie had said. And you are absolutely correct ✅ in that the States have the constitutional right to oversee elections in their State. 2 Dolls overdid his meds again today, nervous about meeting *real* world leaders.

Bummer. But after the tears and the sudden emptiness one realises life must go on. One remedy we have relied on is ...yes! Another puppy 🧡
🏆
It took me a minute. LOL LOL Ha hah ha
Arlo Guthrie recorded Alice's Restaurant in '67 and the group W bench was for those who didn't have the moral fibre to be drafted for Vietnam. Great song, and better movie. Check 'em out! ✅
Sound like any group of folks we know? (From “The Origins of Totalitarianism” by Hannah Arendt)
youtu.be/_z1auaiE0pU?...
This works too. Picture of hypocrisy.
Re the cartoon, that looks like the Group W bench...
I was going to say that it is awfully cute that Melania has the same signature as her jobbie husband. Which got me wondering about the signature on her passport and whether it is the same. Non-the-less, re the children, you're 4 years too late Melania. And Poutine doesn't care, like you.
Keep it going Angela. I try to catch your updates most days, along with hawkspodcasts and tom powell. We can only send pos 💚+ energy your way and just look forward to the day that tiny hands aka orange jobbie flickers like that candle in the window draught before finally petering out.
Either way works for me 😂
Poutine does not care about a Peace Prize, all he wants is 🇺🇦 - along with 🇵🇱 and those guys 🇱🇹 🇪🇪🇱🇻 - the orange jobbie on the other hand is salivating for the PP, hence his phone call to Norway earlier. A truly pathetic man-child.
When I first saw the headline that HRC had nominated the jobbie for the PP I thought wtf? Twice in fact. Then I saw the conditions 😂 never happen...and here we are. Thank you Hillary. Fist bump ma'am!
So what they did was "spuddle", an old English term meaning to look extremely busy whilst achieving absolutely nothing. Big Balls will now be called in count the costs.
Lube.
I don't mean to be " eww" but just wondering if it was the flavoured kind...silly me, of course I was because this whole meeting was "eww"
My thoughts exactly.
After disembowling him.
Words matter, don't they? When we overuse words they lose their meaning. eg "war" on anything; "fake" "viral" - I don't even know what "unprecedented" means anymore. So Crisis may be apt here, I don't know. I do know that I enjoy "Crisis? What Crisis" by Supertramp but I'm being a tad flippant now🤭
National day of action tomorrow! Find the location on near you!
...
Impressive orator. He'll be even more impressive as the next mayor of NYC.
Sorry to say but there is nothing *normal* abut anything in this admin. Anything and everything that formulates in this pea brain and makes it's way to his mouth is nonsense. As in No Sense. TBH I can't stand his voice, so evening dresses aside, I just change channels and look for Foghorn Leghorn.
Going back in time on the Sounds of the Nation, it's a Caroline flashback !
Not too sure how much longer you are going to navel gaze the Nov defeat. Pretty obvious by now how it all went wrong. Lost a % of latinios, % of african americans, larger % of independants. It's over. Move forward.
LOUDER, please and thank you.
And, dare I say, the right genes 🤭
I can't remember reading about any journalists reporting from Dachau or Auschwitz either so Bibi is following a policy laid out 80 years ago.
🚨 ICE melts under pressure! 🚨 Monday, 8/11, we need EVERYONE who can to join us outside of 101 Ida B. Wells from 9-10am. We stand in solidarity with Chicago’s immigrant community. We will NOT stand by while ICE terrorizes our city. Spread the word. Bring a friend. @50501movement.bsky.social
..."Congress awakening from it's slumber.." yeah, right. Next year maybe when they see the country start to sway and stagger.
Just have to add to your irrational statements, that I wonder if Israel and Israeli citizens will feel any safer in 20 years with thousands of Palestinians now roaming the world, seeking revenge for the killing of their families? Is that what you want? You cannot kill an ideology my friend.
And why, arch libertarian Rand Paul has become a thorn in the side of his fellow elephants and speaking out about the truth of what tariffs are. When the maga base see less money in their pockets they may be forced to agree with him. But I doubt it. Blame will be assigned to Bengahzi or ??? :-D
That's better ! 😊
You know what, I'd really rather not. I see his visage every day and it really does upset my digestion.
I don't expect anything productive to come from the meeting in Alaska - if it even goes ahead. If it does, it's possible tRump may offer Alaska back to Russia for a price, seeing as in tRumps world it's all about the $$$.
I understand there are protests in LA either every day or w/e, yet the media do not cover any of them. Not a conspiracy theorist but you'd have thought that at least one MSM oulet would cover something.
Please note @gtconway0.bsky.social is a spam a/c. Probably wouldn't want to reply.
I don't believe the majority of the public understand that *Artificial* Intelligence scrapes all the stuff that's already known and tries to make sense of it when a question is posed. It's Artificial. It is *created* intelligence, not naturally occurring from one human to another. Take care friends.
Until the jobbie's policies affect their daily lives they will still adore him. I'm thinking prices, health care costs. Give it another 2 months, no new info on Epstein and his polling in the toilet. Another 2 months and with tariff economy and jobs market in freefall, who knows how they may react.
Re the book reading...someone from the UK posted that if it wasn't for the gun violence he would not have realised that the US had schools. It's getting to the stage where the rest of the world is openly laughing at the US. I save my laughter for the smiling clowns behind the jobbie.
OMG You may not have heard of Benny Hill or Dave Allen, 2 Brit comedians from years ago, but this meme reminds me of what a great skit this could have been turned into, having ICE not knowing who to chase after. John Stewart? Stephen Colbert? Anyone want to take this up? Please! 😂

Waffle, waffle, grin, waffle. So, from Bessent's pov, if I want some coffee from Brazil, I have to buy it from Argentina now, or from the UK, anywhere with a 10% import fee instead of Brazil's 50%. Got it. Paperwork by importers has just gotten a tad trickier. YOU IDIOT.
Good observation. But I think we can be safe as I doubt there are any Magats who read the WaPo. It is possible, however, that the Faux website may have picked up the sleight of grammar 🤭
Yes, it should be a national scandal, but the Dems do not have a megaphone in the form of Faux News. Other media is drowned out. NYT/WaPo have abrogated their responsibilities. Sorry to say but the demise of Murdoch Sr cannot come soon enough.
I read this story a couple of days ago and someone made reference to AC/DC. Damn your eyes, sirrah! I've had an ear worm ever since 🤭
America is soft. Too many years under the safety umbrella of democracy. Germany and Italy are the western examples of autocracy, faded by the history books. America failed the test by not prosecuting tRump. McConnell never had the minerals to take him on and this is the result. Bravo Brazil !
UK does have freedom of speech but as with Freedom of expression, there are restrictions. The absolutists want those restrictions lifted. See Rawanda to find out what happens then. I suggest JK visits Speakers Corner in Hyde Park where she can rant to her hearts content. Just stay off media.
Mulvaney was excercising his right to promote "whataboutism." If FDR was a little crazy then it's ok for 2Dolls to be a nutcase. No one accused FDR of being a pedophile narcissist either.
Dems have to win the mid terms so bad.
Tix for the WC go on sale in late fall. Judging by all the positive /s videos on media these days of ICE detentions etc the comments from around the world on those platforms indicate a definite negative vibe. Any brown skinned person has to be verrry nervous. Which is a horrible thing to say.
Now that's what I was going to say, and I don't know my American cars that well. But I shared an apt with a guy in the early 80's who had an Olds 98. Didn't Caddies have seats like that too? Anything over 2 hrs and I was dying for a seat with more support.
Well thank you for that great explanation. Next task: explain the game of cricket hint - it starts with "you have 2 teams, 11 men 'in' and 11 men 'out'. The 11 men out have to get the 11 men in 'out'..." 😂
Read this last night. One way the media could counteract the Faux megaphone would be for some news outlet (MSNBC?) to print out tRumps speeches and press briefings. See the spoken word. SEE the spoken word. That's when you realise the incoherence, the illness.
Wow! Interesting character there! All those wild Caps. I'm sure Angela realises that as she reaches more people, like moths to a flame the weirdos will come out of the woodwork. Onward and upward ☆
They live amongst us, the dickwads do. Just wait til they catch a cold...😂
Nice one Ron. I guess it's fair to say, from yr scientific study, that when speaking to a lady, any responses will confirm the well established female refrain - "my eyes are not down there" 🤭
Don't throw up just yet. Those were lyrics from Jethro Tull's '71 album Aqualung. It has it's place in rock history tho it's lyrics have had discussion over the years.
We don't have the stadiums or the capacity for all of them. It's a nice thought tho. But maybe Brazil would like to help out. That would really piss the orange jobbie off,,,
This is what happens when one country, in this case Israel, pisses off the rest of the world.
Maybe democracy will emerge after tRump declares bankruptcy. Or his own c/c expires.
Mehdi, I have seen many of your recent debates/interviews with prominent and not so prominent individuals on this subject. Making them squirm under persistent questioning is finally breaking through. Thank you. Don't let people like Dershowitz escape from answering what is there in front of our eyes
More attention here please.
I'm wondering if they were in Sk or Ab 'cos looking into that western sun - man oh man - it goes on for evah. Definite needs for my anti peril singlasses.
Priorities.
tRump has always been tRump. He never morphed into a character with the idea of being Prez. When tRump is gone the Pols in his circle will not be able to inherit his mantle. With luck they will be cast asunder into political quicksand along with feckless Don jr
Good one 😂
Calling DOGE. Anyone seen DOGE around? Phone call anyone? Anyone? Holidays you say? Recess? Right. Got it. Shiny object. Epstein. Tick.
