Pritzker is a legitimate Presidential candidate possibility. He’s not the right person to troll but a few more influential voices should definitely join in. It’s a pressure campaign with legs.

I’m not understanding how removing the ‘cracker’ and the barrel is “woke”? Would keeping them and putting the guy in a Klan hood be more acceptable? What is the source of the outrage? What are we wokifying, exactly?

I would never stop talking. This would be even more exhausting than just thinking all the things - and that is extremely exhausting already.

Home from seeing The Decembrists in CLE. It is now one of my top 2 shows of all time (in good company with Geo Clinton & P Funk All Stars). Phenomenal. Musically, lyrically and spiritually rocked a full house at the Masonic Temple. I’ll be basking in this glow for days. It was good for the soul.

What if release of Epstein files with information on Trump was inevitable? So the plan is: ride Trump rizz to election, place patsy (no rizz) as VP. Once in, slam through as much Proj 2025 as possible by overwhelm. When inevitable happens, cue health issue. Resign, Thiel/JD takes over. Paranoid=Me 🫨

The information here needs to be shared EVERYWHERE. People are not aware of how devastating these cuts will be because they don’t realize how many in their suburban & rural communities rely on the services. I truly believe Joe Voter thinks this will only impact urban areas.

IMHO there isn’t any “Traditional” Country music (or very little) nowadays. It’s just Pop songs with a twang and traditional instruments being sung by people in cowboy hats and cowboy boots. Take away the Country theater and what have you got?

They want WHITE women to have babies. The “welfare queen” with all the babies was code for Black women. They don’t want those babies. (That’s why they ignore Black women’s absolutely horrible childbirth statistics.)

So, the problem is we already had an RFK, and he was pretty great. Rather than tie his son to the legacy of his father in any way, I have taken to referring to Junior as “Bucky”—a portmanteau of “Bobby” and “Fucking Idiot.” Bucky Kennedy. Please join me in this.

One theory I have is Tapper & his ilk assume viewers know this is not true & therefore, there is no need to point it out. However, I haven’t worked through how it’s been 10 “T years” and media hasn’t realized that viewers do not, in fact, know what’s true & what isn’t.

Dems need to talk to people who are not all that politically active & have little to no experience in politics. Non party people who vote & non party people who don’t. They need to stop getting advice from experts, pundits, politicians & the press. Isn’t that what “grassroots” means?
