Nailed it!
Sidewalk chalk and sandwiches. I think our national political dialogue is not what it used to be.
It's striking to me that, during Covid, the Republicans yelled, "We won't wear masks. You can't make us." Now ICE agents are wearing masks and yelling, "We won't take off our masks. You can't make us. @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social
Oh, damn, he was this close.
@markhertling.bsky.social Here is an article from a soldier talking about honor. Read it. Embrace it. THIS is the stuff that matters.
Damn.
Wow.
SO MUCH WINNING!
What a colossal Dumbass!!!!!
OUR FUCKING NATION IS AT STAKE! STAND UP. FIGHT BACK!
This is embarrassing.
@danielsilvabooks.bsky.social Daniel, you know Gabriel better than I do, but I suspect if Gabriel had been involved, the original would already have been returned to the owner and the portrait in that ladies home would be a marvelous fake. 🤣
This! This right here. This explains everything! "The world can tell the difference now between a war being waged for the survival of the Jewish state and a war being waged for the political survival of its prime minister."
"This Israeli government is committing suicide, homicide and fratricide. "It is destroying Israel’s standing in the world, it is killing Gazan civilians with seemingly no regard for innocent human life, and it is tearing apart Israeli society and world ...
"Trump is defunding the police."
Statement from Illinois Governor JB Pritzker on reports that Trump plans to deploy the military in his state
“Do not come to Chicago” -JB Pritzker This is what we have been talking about, since 2020. Hit back harder. That’s how you win a fight. The entire Democrat party should be taking notes.

HEY LOOK! Your past is catching up with you.

WHAT A GREAT OPPORTUNITY! This requires a handful of courageous citizens with paintball guns in RAINBOW colors.
And he's also a vampire.
These are alternative facts.
“I think the real question is, what’s in the documents that they haven’t produced?”
legit laughing my ass off
Ha ha ha ha. I saw what you did there! 🤣🤣🤣
WTF?
This isn’t about John Bolton, so whatever you think about him is irrelevant. It is about every person who dares to publicly criticize Trump. It is about intimidating and silencing all of us, and it will work with some. There are going to be many more Boltons in the coming months.
He's got spy creds and he can paint? Wow. He seems to be a well qualified candidate if there were ever a Gabriel Allon movie???
I'm scholarly, and I think Tom is a scholar (except for his opinions on music and 70's/80's television).
The best 007 ever.
Vance is a DUMBASS!
OMG! I couldn't put my finger on it before, but now it's clear. Either his mother or his father was a bulldog.
Mundus sine Caesaribus.
What do they call this? A self-inflicted wound???
I really hate it when he wakes up.
The next time I go to vote, I'm taking my license plate with me.
Hertling: "Trump, however, will continue to treat diplomacy as he once treated real estate: transactional, theatrical, and superficial." Nailed it.
What? Trump lied? Inconceivable!!!!
Excellent summation!
Brilliant!

@radiofreetom.bsky.social You painted a powerful picture on MSNBC; Putin came here and told Trump what he's going to do and Trump basically said, "OK." Your observation that there's a lot more that happened than we know squares with all the reports of his staff looking shell shocked afterward.
Ah shoot. I posted this to the wrong thread. It should have been attached to Tom's recent TV appearance.
Wow, that's a powerful visual you articulated, that Putin came here and told Trump what he's going to do and Trump basically said, "OK." Your observation that there's a lot more that happened than we know squares with all the reports of his staff looking shell shocked afterward.
The statement reads, in part, "to restore cleanliness and safety..." Does the National Guard usually involve themselves in "cleanliness" missions? Also, is that a legitimate reasons to deploy the guard? Hmmm. This sounds like someone is trying to suck up to Trump.
Fiscal responsibility! Don't forget that one.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Oh please, please, make it stop! My stomach hurts... 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ding ding ding…we have a winner… “But I do know that the Bork drama helped pave the way for a win-at-all-costs mentality, and Dems helped that.”
LOL. Sadly, you are spot on. This administration doesn't prepare, they react.
The worst film ever was Howard the Duck. Any "worst movie ever" discussion that doesn't include the "Duck" is irrelevant.
@sarahlongwell25.bsky.social I don't like using "dementia" to describe him. There are a lot of good people who suffer from dementia who aren't also evil and narcissistic. Trump is demented. That sounds more apropos.
Jesus! We live in The United States of America! Why does a judge have to tell these people they have to provide basic human services?????????????? TRUMP SUCKS!
Give it a few minutes. Taco man is gonna chicken out.
Mr. Trump, why are you advocating against cashless bail when you, yourself, were released on cashless bail multiple times?
Mr. Trump, why are you deploying the National Guard to D.C. now, when crime is at a decades-long low, but didn't on January 6th, when the Capital was being sacked?

@carlquintanilla.bsky.social Can you repost this, but ask people to caption the photo??? Jeanine Pirro: "I'm new here. WTF did he just say?" Kash Patel: "If I stand still and don't move, maybe he won't notice I'm not white." Pam Bondi: "I'm his lawyer. I'm already dead inside."

This is wrong in so many ways. It’s absurd from a national security standpoint and terrible economic policy. Unpredictable, invasive government intervention is the antithesis of what makes America’s economy the best in the world. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/10/t...

The Manchurian Candidate, sorry, the Manchurian President cannot read, and therefore, does not know what the U.S. has always believed.
We are a headline society. We see a headline we agree with and go with it, forgetting “the devil is in the details.” Read the headlines and Trump says things a lot of people want to hear. Read the body copy and it all falls apart. But if "they" don't read the body copy, they don't get it.
Good morning. Trump is protecting Epstein files. The confederacy lost and they were traitors, mRNA vaccines are the future, cops shouldn’t wear masks, Trump cut taxes for the rich and ripped benefits from the poor. Have a weekend
It is pathetic what our government has become under Trump.
RFK is a colossal dumbass.
mRNA vaccines are one of the greatest innovations in modern times. If I was any other country, I'd be throwing money at mRNA scientists to develop science-based technologies that cure lots of diseases--including cancer--that mRNA vaccines can solve. If the US won't do it, someone should.
NO! This is not acceptable! This is entirely inconsistent with Republican talking points!
But...but...they don't know how to do that. All the people who know how to adjust targets and forecasts have been fired or left.
This is GREAT news. Now, I'm not limited to yelling at kids who get on my lawn. Now, I can dress up in camo and get mean with those stupid, awful, horrible people who harvest all the vegetables I eat, clean my hotel room, maintain my yard, and... Oh. Wait a minute...
Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump!
Informative article, Admiral. Russia is known for their nuclear saber rattling. Being a responsible power, we always ignored it. At the very least, we never played along. Until now. I wish our current leadership would be more serious and deliberate in matters involving the military.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nobody can make good financial decisions using bad or suspect data. This is NOT good.
What a couple of dumbasses.
You nailed it with this post. Most of your posts are great, but this really nails it; many people "may feel unable financially to lose their jobs on matters of principle." So very true. "..why I have utter disgust and contempt for BigLaw partners and corporate chieftains who cave." So very true.
C'mon, TACO. We're counting on your to backtrack and save the market today. Don't let us down.
I don't agree that the EU capitulated to Trump. I believe the EU's primary objective was to stabilize the chaos so commerce could proceed. They've accomplished that with this deal. Now their mission is to establish and build new trading partners. Without the U.S. They're doing that.
The networks normalize the extreme. An independent press--the reporters--have demonstrated they have the courage to call Trump out. The businesses that employ those reporters are different. They love the commotion and tumult Trump causes because it translates into ratings.
And yet, some people believe his words and swallow it all hook, line, and sinker.
These schools fight for independence, they fight so professors can have tenure, but the moment they get financial or political pressure, they voluntarily give up their independence. They do this, they don't deserve tenured professors anymore.
Bunch of COWARDS!

Ha ha ha!!! I see what you did right there! mushroom. Haaaaa!
Are you fucking kidding me? She "just might be a victim?" I don't watch Newsmax because the network is fake news, but WTF? Suggesting Maxwell is a victim? WTG is wrong with this guy???????????
Excellent article that is both insightful and well-reasoned. The trouble is the people who need to be swayed aren't often influenced by insight and reason.
