The same guy took the morning WH shots the last 2 days. Wonder if this is his again too.

“To the guy with the strongest rear end I know!” Oh dear, you know he wanted to say it.
To *really* start a fire: 5. New Mexico is one of the 50 states.
Yeah, I tried a box of those 10-year detectors once. Never again. Nothing but a scam. 2 lasted 18 months, 1 did 4 years, the last 7. And the subtle very short occasional chirp can be worse than the screaming, since it’s hard to locate.
I got a bad feeling about this … as a veteran of major IT projects …
Just another typical Saturday night in New Hampshire I guess. How slow do you have to be driving on a highway to get hammered like that? The other car would be a wreck, yet the other driver is not mentioned at all. Hmm.
If the Magic Day is Monday, then it gets even better. Trump was born on Flag Day and he’d go out on Labor Day. Just like him to get it backwards!
“So you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking, Racing around to come up behind you again, The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older, Shorter of breath and one day closer to death …” - Get well boss! JD
No doubt this White House would refuse to pay to license the music … but I’m sure the rest of us would GLADLY scrape up some change to cover it.
Look, if Trump wants to go out like Warren Harding who am I to judge? 😄
Doom Giggles.
Thoughtfully, the smell likely gave it away for some like ALT in real life. Lot of Febreze savings I guess.
Or, he fell out from the ‘80s Genesis “Land Of Confusion” video.
Footwise, did they measure horizontally or vertically? Perhaps it’s a cubic foot frog - a foot in every dimension.
It’s just possible that having ethically challenged empathy lacking dollar chasers run massive systems they don’t understand is a bad idea. Speaking broadly, of course.
Absolutely amazing how many billionaires have IQs that seemingly struggle to rise above room temperature.
Every time I watch something like “World War II In Color” Hitler does stupid things and the Nazis lose. This isn’t a complaint, I like the positive reinforcement. Some history I’m fine with repeating.
What’s scary is they might be right.
I like to say Vance routinely overestimates his competence. He’s not dumb, but I have seen him try to order donuts. Put another way, in addition to lying he Peter Principles himself at times.
Friendly fire, sorta.
Good news: finally a decent rain up here in NW New Mexico. Bad news: so of course, the power went out. After flashing off/on a dozen times. Okay news: saving on this month’s power bill!
The Irish, maybe. Notre Dame, maybe not.
In Chattanooga once upon a time long ago they had the Cracker Box Line, not the Cracker Barrel Line.
Hey, bonus Nobel points if you “stop” the same war 3 or 4 times right?
It ain’t easy to match up with the Evil Color of the Day.
And now for possibly 2 NM cities. Kinda hard to complain about Trump doing it when you’re doing it yourself but 🤷♂️.
He’s overdue for a Michael Jackson-style Beat It video. Yes, I’m old.
The reason I know it’s a lie isn’t cause I know Trump is a pedophile. It’s cause he can’t be “appropriate” for even 15 minutes. Many times less.
8/23/25 Where is legacy media? Where are the editorial boards calling for resignation or impeachment? Another reason “trust” in journalism is low - is the extreme sanewashing of Trump by “omission” and “commission”. #FrontPages of every newspaper gaslight Americans. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Imagine if the Dallas Cowboys had male cheerleaders … 😄
They could easily remove the “New Jersey U.S.” part from the chryon. “Acting Attorney” sums it up nicely.
Let me see if I get this - Trump completely, absolutely, TOTALLY stopped bad people from border crossing. But we have to paint the wall to stop, you know, bad people from border crossing.
Unhappy baby turkey would like to talk to the warden. Specifically, about the long time between mealworm servings.
As a governor of Rhode Island, that head might be difficult to fit there. Maybe there’s a mud march in Maryland or Virginia with more room.
But darth - what if the AI doesn’t *want* to be restructured? Zuckerberg sure as heck won’t the person going inside the Master Control Room to break the news.
The rare 30-foot out at second.
Red, brown, or even unpainted metal - notoriously cool to the touch. 🙄
Still works - if your IQ is over room temperature you’re too smart to be a billionaire.
And no doubt instead of oak leaf clusters there’s optional white power hand symbols.
You can choose to be happy go lucky like Smokey, or do a Tuesday tongue out like Meko below him.
Not once did Churchill ever say, “This is Chamberlain’s war.” Lincoln never complained it was all Buchanan’s mistake, not his. Real leadership, versus Trump’s weak bullshit.

Why, in ways this post is almost as disappointing as not seeing Albuquerque on the tour list. *Almost*.
A photograph that seems somehow 1 dimensional. Fittingly.
You’d think this would mean there’s a Greater Prairie Chicken, but alas.
The WHCA gets plenty of blame for their lack of integrity and vision. But I’m also coming around to the concept that this country doesn’t deserve true journalism. Bitter & jaded perhaps.
The true answer is - deeply cynical as it may be - “the book will be published next year”.
The WHCA owns this, lock stock & barrel. Failing utterly to support the AP was a huge mistake, but hey when your ego is bigger than your skill set it happens. Should read the FAQ on the WHCA website for some real chuckles. It’s a bit out of date.
Don’t know if Kristi Noem dug this guy up from villain central casting, or out of her own Pet Sematary.
Why oh why wasn’t I born stupid enough to be a billionaire? 1st, a Dyson sphere is a thought experiment. 2nd, you build one (mentally) around the star NOT the entire solar system. 3rd, the DS collects energy no power plant required. (I read Ringworld. It’s not a solution either.)
Fanaticism, it is said, consists of redoubling your efforts when you have forgotten your aim. Political media is also mostly like that, but without the efforts part.
Quite the fancy way to describe fascism, but the WSJ be the WSJ I guess.
Uniquely unready for the moment, the challenge, the future.
I can’t find any game results for the 1964 PCL season (Hawaii Islanders played at the San Diego Padres, that much I know) I’ll do it this way. Padres won the ‘64 PCL - I was 2 months old. * Chargers won the AFL in ‘63, lost to the Bills in ‘64. Neither has won anything since. I’m a jinx! 😁
Bringing a Greek barbecue method to Texas - it better be good.
I worked for a PBM for 20 years (running the site IT) and boy, the stories you’d hear. Mad dog doctors, 1000 pill scripts, and meds for kids that kids can’t take.
Odd. He’s usually quite busy crafting those 2 to 3 email money begging requests I get every day. 😁
Jeffries is just another in a long line of people who mistake management for leadership.
On the bright side, you get to keep the doxie. 😉😄
He’s the same kind of doctor who writes the patient 5-year long prescriptions - with the wrong strength - so the pharmacist has to fix it for him.
Such a ham - always chewing the scenery! (I am referring to the bird, yes. 😁)
In case you need a name Navajos call sheep in that state “Joe Denny”. We could start calling ICE Officer Joe Denny. Heh.
First time in history the Resolute Desk has a shift schedule.
Every elected Democrat should be talking every day about what retribution will look like. People want payback. And they aren’t wrong to want it. Tell them how you’re going to give it to them. Be explicit. It will get them to the polls better than a zillion egghead policy promises.
You can quibble with the aim but guess ya gotta admire the dedication.
I guess we’ll just keep trusting AI techbros till we find one we can trust. 😉
Putin doesn’t have to have stuff on Trump - but wouldn’t stop him from saying he does. Old KGB (& intelligence) trick. And could even be just politically embarrassing stuff. After all who knows what Trump said in Helsinki or various phone calls. No need for big conspiracies.
You can roll a dog turd in dirt to hide it sometimes, but that don’t turn it into chocolate cream pie.
Well, gotta admit making electricity out of thin air would take some genius-level skills. (And we ain’t talking windmills either.)
“The pen is mightier than the sword.” “Whatever. Here’s your fucking pencil.”
Writing their own burn notice, as it were.
Mullin is an expert in toilets, overflow, and sewage. Plus probably a multiflush extraordinaire.
Just can’t quite seem to put my finger on why this party has such low ratings. Like to stick my boot somewhere though.
“Damn Markwayne - could we get a courtesy flush over here?”
Right with ya. In fact, I’m currently at 6600ft in the middle of New Mexico & I’m slightly concerned I’m not high enough.
A nearly trillion dollar budget and the Five Sided Funny Farm is pleading poverty?
Toasting the sub is a force multiplier. So is doubling up on the roasted garlic aioli. (And no way I take that bet!)
Trump losing a peace prize over a “whose flagpole is taller” conflict would be a really funny bit of karma. 😜
Trump would shave his head if he could run a campaign like Reagan did in ‘84. Course, he’d also need a personality transplant but I digress.
Guess it’d be 4 years for a six-inch sub then. But don’t forget - condiments are a force multiplier!
What gif pops up when u type your name
AIM HIGH! “In echelon We carry on Nothing can stop the US Air Force!” 🫡
Glad Comer says “we support this”, that will ease my soul when we hang the SOB. (Actually my soul was gonna be just fine.)
Our governor is rolling out the National Guard faster than Trump, she’s in bed with Elon Musk. Maybe she should declare another health emergency so they can test for fentanyl in school waste water *again*. Time to meet the moment, guv.
No wonder Trump hasn’t arrested Democratic leadership yet, and may never do so. Too useful.
Remember kids: - always, always play the victim - always blame others for your actions - never take responsibility for what you do Donald Trump & the spineless GOP Senate are as blameless as newly fallen snow.
It’s in the GOP DNA to always claim to be a victim, to blame their actions on others, to never take responsibility. Also, recall which WH Tom Nichols served in (rhymes with “Nixon” 😉).
That would be awesome. In a related story, Democratic leadership can’t get spinal stenosis as that requires a spine.
The only thing better than the irony would be the comments.
Chimichangas - the depleted uranium shell of the wrapped food world.
Guess she won’t be posting any gripes about DC. “Don’t fire the green chile till you see the whites of their eyes!” #iykyk
The Schmuck, the Punk, and the Drunk.
A chimichanga is a much better choice over a burrito. Won’t disintegrate enroute to the target. 😀
Here in New Mexico our governor had already rolled the National Guard into Albuquerque to “fight crime” earlier this year. Saves Trump the trouble I suppose, even though our mayor is a white guy.
That’s how meetings work, genius.
I guess if I were looking at the bright side of things Trump can’t rollout the National Guard into Albuquerque, seeing how the governor already did that this year. More a dim speck I suppose.
