Why are we fighting over what happened 5 years ago?
The criminal justice system is not designed to keep someone like Trump from running and being elected as president. Our goose was cooked when McConnell declined to convict and bar from office.
Enough with that nonsense.
Biblical basis for rejecting “thoughts and prayers”: “If a brother or sister is naked and lacks daily food, and one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and eat your fill,” and yet you do not supply their bodily needs, what is the good of that?” James 2:15-16
Image caring more about stopping a memorial for people killed in a mass shooting than stopping mass shootings. #Priorities
“typical chick” —- what a turdforbrains
The lottery reaching a billion dollars will do that.
Here’s a rule: care more about dead children than a murderer’s gender identity.
Finding myself unmoved by people who object to the misgendering of people who kill children.

Is it just me or does it seem to you JD only does three things: sit for interviews, go on vacations, and occasionally make it possible for the Senate to do something bad?
Still making saves
Blanche didn’t represent Epstein. He represented Trump.
the crisis in which the University of Chicago is now engulfed -- one entirely of its own making, and which has led to the (hopefully temporary) suspension of admissions into numerous PhD programs in the humanities -- represents I think a seismic event in the history of American higher education 1/
Step one ✅
Early reports indicate FBI found an unopened gift determined to be a mustache trimmer and a cache of remaindered books signed by the author with cryptic messages like “Epstein didn’t kill himself” and doodles of mushrooms and tacos.
What a tool.
Okay, this is unnecessary even if you want to curry favor with the war criminal who invaded Ukraine.
This guy sucks but the administration really wants to cut a deal and telling the truth does not advance that objective.
Texas, Florida have larger delegations because of unlawfully present people too.

As we approach the 20th Anniversary of the Roberts Court, here is my list of the Top Ten Worst Con Law Cases of his Court. Boy was that a hard list to whittle down and no doubt people will disagree with some omissions but the harm to America is truly awful. www.dorfonlaw.org/2025/08/mour...
Yes, truly incredible.
A terrorist targeted federal workers last week. There wasn’t much reporting on it. But I’m not finished thinking about it! 🧵 An anti-vaxxer fired more than 500 gunshots into CDC Atlanta, shattering 150 “blast-proof” windows on 6 buildings. Employees were pinned down in terror.
Quit calling it that. The budget bill was simply an Act. Calling it the Big Beautiful bill is propaganda, no different from calling it the Dismantle and Bankrupt America bill or the Fascist State Starter Kit.
Weren’t we playing this game Tuesday night? Okay: The Elroy’s
Drag it out so (shrug) we gotta use the unlawful maps during midterms.
Shocking

ICE isn’t going after violent criminals, they’re hunting down innocent people, including US citizens, based solely on the color of their skin. It’s vile and racist AF, but so on brand for Trump’s administration. These thugs aren’t wearing white hoods, but they might as well. ICE is the new klan.
What a bunch of cosplay losers. 😂
DC Statehood seems more relevant than ever.
Block accounts that say stuff like this. It is the same dehumanizing rhetoric that Trump and MAGA use. (This account’s pinned post literally calls Republicans “not human”!)
People need to saying stuff like this. It’s the same sort of demonizing Trump and MAGA do. A bunch of rank and file Republicans need to repent for looking past Trump’s sins but they aren’t cut from the same cloth as him.
That doesn’t look anything Mitch McConnell or John Roberts.
Important to note that there are different types of US-Russia presidential meetings. This type is particularly significant and thus a very clear sign of the Trump administration's desire to align with the Kremlin. Long🧵
It’s happening *somewhere* in Alaska where there are not going to be significant protests against Putin or the meeting itself. Too remote for more than a few locals to show up.

I don’t like this bizarro world. Can someone please hit the reset button?
1/ - Trade Policy in 2025 - Step 1. Donald Trump invents threatened new tariff rates on your country based on some combination of the trade balance, vibes, personal grievance, vibes, how much he likes you, vibes, or a Peter Navarro formula so stupid it made Lesotho enemy #1. Also vibes.
A showdown over gerrymandering where it’s taken to the extremes by both sides may be what it takes to get people to demand that we outlaw gerrymandering. And expand the House while we are at it.
The long-awaited, salacious sequel to the Starr Report: coming soon to a bookstore near you!
i've said before, and I'll say again, one of the open secrets that anyone in the fracking industry will tell you [but politicians seem to not be able to internalize] is that the industry is near the end of its life - it's on a slow grind down as we run out of locations to frack.
I am going to fire my windsock for pointing east.

Oh. Not so prescient after all.
Whoever that was who said whatever got said comes up as blocked for me, so I guess I feel validated in that decision
My guy @mattzollerseitz.bsky.social has some words for your consideration www.dmagazine.com/arts-enterta...
NEW: A federal judge ordered the Trump administration to unfreeze federal funds. Then the harassment began. Pizzas sent to his home in the name of Judge Esther Salas’s murdered son, Daniel. Six credible threats to his life. More than 400 “vile” calls to his chambers—including this voicemail:
In the corvid justice system, the corvidae are represented by two separate yet equally important groups: the murder investigators, and the enforcers that peck out the eyes of the guilty. These are their stories." *caw caw*
Think about what the GOP is revealing with their attempt to suddenly change the Congressional maps: they know their agenda is so unpopular that they're going to lose unless something changes. Of course, what they should be changing is their policies, not the maps.
@muellershewrote.com you’re only scratching the surface! Have you ever asked yourself why there are only 435 reps for 330m Americans, when the House should have grown to 483 member in 1921? Get in touch w/ @casten.house.gov and ask him about #hr4125 and #UncapTheHouse! 🇺🇸 youtu.be/2YMVF0PU-ic?...
"From here it’s just a hop, skip, and a jump to saying the entire prosecution was a stitch up by Barack Obama, Joe Biden, and Merrick Garland. *Pardon for notorious child sex trafficker incoming in 3 … 2 …*"

Cannot confirm
Repeal the pardon power. Trump ruins everything.
Send not to know for whom the bell tolls, it tolls for thee.
Colin Allred once asked that question
Trump’s problem with Secret Service protection? Some agent is always there watching him cheat at golf.
I have to restate how insane this "deal" is from the US perspective, it's 5% more from the baseline, and it makes importing European cars cheaper than producing American cars
Epstein accuser Maria Farmer on Ghislaine Maxwell: “I’ve never met a more predatory, terrifying human being in my entire life. She’s a very dangerous person. The woman is not a victim, she’s a victimizer.” via @msnbc.com (ht: @marcofoster.bsky.social)

I can’t keep his pace but I’ve been keeping a list like this since I finished college.
In 2016 this guy went to a law office with the goal of killing his wife’s lawyer. He hacked a woman to death with a machete and bludgeoned two other people to death (including a man he falsely thought was that lawyer), then set fire to the building to cover his tracks. Anyway, Trump just freed him.
Blanche has such a conflict of interest in this matter. He shouldn’t be involved in anything that could affect his former(?) client’s interests. Period. Full stop. Basic professional responsibility.
2 points here: 1) There's no statute of limitations in New York for Ghislaine Maxwell's crimes (maybe also options in New Mexico and Florida). A pardon can't stop state prosecutions. 2) We just got another reason to release the Epstein files: so the public can test Maxwell's truthfulness.

And peppers. Don’t forget the peppers.

Trump's harassment of immigrant communities is doing what it is intended to do: empowering local bad actors to exploit people for profit even more. www.latimes.com/california/s...
Wait…I thought tariffs were taxes other countries paid. Weird.
Quite frankly, rotflmao
Could be wrong but what if Ghislaine swears Trump never so much as smiled at a teenage girl, DOJ drops opposition to her appeal, she gets sprung, Trump dangles a pardon to keep her quiet, and she disappears overseas never to be heard from again. MAGA buys it hook, line, and sinker. Problem solved.
There is a forgotten amendment from the era of the Bill of Rights that would require Congress to grow with US population. Its interpretation is ambiguous, but one plausible reading would force Congress to be around 1700 members. Already ratified by 11 states! genuineideas.com/ArticlesInde...

Gov. Gavin Newsom: “80% of Californians pay about average taxes. 40% of Californians pay lower taxes than they do in Texas and Florida. Texas and Florida tax their lowest wage earners more than we do our highest wage earners. So who’s the high tax state? Is it California or is it Texas?”
Lost his green card and was arrested while at an immigration office trying to get it replaced.
