Asking for a friend.
In another era (this morning), I wrote about how institutions are again doing the hard work of validating the administration’s intimidation tactics. www.pbump.net/o/the-climat...
"So why treat the idea that the signature isn’t his seriously? Why treat the assertions of people with demonstrated track records of lying on Trump’s behalf — including Trump, his communications team and right-wing influencers — as offering sincere complaints on this particular issue?" Yes, why?
While you were distracted... The House passed its $892.6 billion defense policy bill on Wednesday.The bill advanced by a vote of 231 to 196, largely along party lines. The House now will wait for the Senate to pass its version & negotiations begin. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...
I always do.
Mentally saying "Wed-Nes-Day" when writing the word Wednesday.
President Obama notes the Supreme Court has now signed off on racial profiling. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...
From the station that manages to never say a word about the Hortmans or the Epstein files.🙄 They constantly foment outrage, but only anti-liberal outrage. Everything else is ignored or lied about.
Hmm ...
I went to a pet shop. I said, 'Can I buy a goldfish?' The guy said, 'Do you want an aquarium?' I said, 'I don't care what star sign it is.'
Trump wants to set the flags on half-mast for nazi Kirk. Did he do that for Democrats that have been attacked and killed in his name? No? Thought so.
Here, Epstein looks like a child-raping villain from a knockoff Disney movie with his evil overlord whispering orders into his ear. 👇
The guy the cops were interviewing was a plant... a decoy to give them time to get the F away!!!
This also happened today, America.
Donald J Trump is a fuqking moron!! 🙄
I can hear the whispers in the White House. Stephen "Vamp" Miller: Boss, all we need is an assassination attempt to make them all ignore the Epstein files and your cartoon. It worked before! Couch Boy: Just pick someone expendable from this list.
Why is this piece of work here? Imagine saying this when the right laughed at Paul Pelosi.
What’s the latest news on the Epstein files? #LeakTheEpsteinFiles
The reason Trump keeps getting away with his crimes is because police are looking for a guy 6’ 3”, 239 pounds.
Ohio Republicans launched a joint legislative committee to redraw the state’s congressional map Wednesday. The redistricting process is required by state law, but Democrats warn it could open the door to another round of partisan gerrymandering amid a broader national effort by the GOP.
NEW: Ohio Republicans have launched a redistricting committee to redraw Ohio’s congressional map, which is required by law. Meanwhile, Democrats have unveiled their own fair map that reflects how Ohio actually votes.
Donald Trump thinks he has found a diabolical loophole through which he can rescind billions in foreign aid without congressional approval, and the chief justice gave us an ominous signal that the Supreme Court will agree. slate.com/news-and-pol...

I am out of sympathy. Militant armed traitor Ashli Babbitt will likely get a funeral w/ military honors but republicans jeered at the attempted assassination of Nancy Pelosi's husband. Drumpf orders half-mast flags for an antisemitic, anti-gay inciter of violence but not for the murdered MN couple.
GUN violence HE condoned
Was a moment of silence held for these students? Why not? We know why.
the same people who laughed and cheered at Nancy Pelosi's husband nearly beaten to death by a hammer are now decrying political violence same people who laughed and cheered at cops being beaten and maimed and killed on Jan 6th are now decrying political violence I can give a million more examples.
Regardless, I have no doubt his fans will blame and lash out at Kirk’s most hated demographic, which apparently was trans people.
Save any empathy you were about to give Charlie Kirk, the TPUSA founder, double it, and send it towards Evergreen High School instead. Three kids in critical condition…. www.cbsnews.com/colorado/new...
I wonder if he was wearing one of the little AR-15 pins he glorified? He got his wish. A country rampant with gun violence. He just thought he was too above it to affect him, his wife or his children, who now have no father.
Horrifying but not surprising.

My Mama taught me hate begets hate. So, anyway, release the Epstein files.
Trump orders flags throughout the United States lowered to 'Half Mast' until Sunday evening in honor of Charlie Kirk. (A courtesy not extended to Melissa Hortman and her husband.)
Charlie Kirk wasn't killed by political violence. Charlie Kirk was killed by *gun* violence.
Compare the reaction to the news about Charlie Kirk with what followed the June shooting of Rep. Melissa Hortman of MN & her husband. Kirk was the victim of a shooting in a country where he & other extremists have been inciting violence for years. He is neither a martyr nor a hero, but a cause.
I won’t celebrate it, but I’m not crying either.
So far, NATO playing it cool. This is probably the most tense night since the end of the Cold War. Poland downed Russian drones. NATO's AWACS is airborne. I assume B-52 crews are inside their planes, waiting on orders (UK/Romania) but still on ground.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
It really should say Nazi influencer. There’s a certain way we should continue to treat Nazis.
Here's what I think is happening in Poland. Thank you all for being patient. Gifted. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...
It’s hard for them. He brought them a lot of ears and money.
A trio of former senior FBI agents argued in a new lawsuit Wednesday that they were illegally dismissed as part of a political purge of the bureau directed by the White House. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
Charlie Kirk repeatedly incited violence, enthusiastically promoted an extremist interpretation of the second Amendment and supported the use of violence against citizens who disagreed with him — so it's unsurprising that someone did this. I don't condone the shooting — but I'm also unsympathetic.
Charlie Kirk incited violence and enthusiastically promoted an extremist interpretation of the second Amendment. He also supported the use of violence against citizens who disagreed with him. As you sow, so also shall you reap.

Abhorrent.
General Sherman is quoted as saying: "War is hell, but it is the hell that our enemy has chosen."
I'm hearing "political violence has no place in America" from people who were more than OK with what happened on Jan 6, 2021.

we did, not so long ago. I fear that time has passed.
nope. time to shut the box, turn off the phone & unplug for a bit.
How do two French dudes share files electronically? Pierre to Pierre network.
INTERNAL DOCS: “National Guard, in measuring public sentiment about Trump’s federal takeover of D.C., has assessed its mission is perceived as “leveraging fear,” driving a “wedge between citizens and the military,” promoting “shame” among some troops…” www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...
The @apnews.com is reporting that the person taken into custody after Charlie Kirk was shot in Utah is not believed to be the shooting suspect.
NYT reporting Charlie Kirk's death. No one is safe in this country.
NBC is also reporting that Charlie Kirk was killed.
TRUMP: Charlie Kirk is dead
To all of the people posting "political violence has no place in this country," political violence in this country would like a word.
This is Nazi language. If you’re wondering how that country descended so far so fast.
"The Russians are risking a wider war in Europe. The only path to reducing such a threat is for Moscow to call off its campaign of butchery in Ukraine, and only the Americans can bring enough diplomatic, financial, and military power to bear to convince the Kremlin that it can never win this war."
Charlie Kirk has died after being shot at a Utah college event this afternoon. apnews.com/article/char...
We just need one more Republican to vote yes. Have you called your rep today?
I think it will be more like...he survives and becomes a huge Nazi martyr for Trump and MAGA who will somehow successfully blame US for the shooting and rain down even more Hell against us.
It's inspiring that despite your life experiences you continue to trust in the innate goodness of some truly despicable people. However, Charlie Kirk will never come to his senses.
I hope Charlie Kirk recovers quickly then, like James Brady, uses his megaphone to help advocate for common sense limits on firearms.
Eric Swalwell signed the discharge petition following a brief absence from the House for a funeral, bringing total to 216, and James Walkinshaw will be sworn in today, bringing Dems one more in their ranks, and the likely 217th name on DP.

Mitchell, who played a key role in President Donald Trump’s failed bid to subvert the 2020 election, also took the chance to level an attack on Democracy Docket founder Marc Elias.
Mitchell, the far-right lawyer and anti-voting activist who played a key role in President Donald Trump’s failed bid to subvert the 2020 election, addressed a Capitol Hill rally organized by the right-wing Tea Party Patriots Wednesday, part of an effort to pressure lawmakers to pass the SAVE Act.
Putin wasn't attacking NATO while Biden was president.
Trump's favorite election denying lawyer, Cleta Mitchell, gives me a big shout out at her voter suppression rally. I wear their scorn like a badge of honor.

I got 11. What about you? 🤔

This you?
“clear answers” on Wash post being compromised tho
Where's he been for the last 15 hours? What the hell does 'Here we go!' mean?
My boss hates when I shorten his name to Dick. Especially because his name’s Simon.
The lying liar said what?
I may live in a deep red maga state, but I am lucky to be in the best county. My county now has FREE harm reduction vending machines in libraries and some other public locations stocked with: Naloxone (Narcan) Gun locks Condoms Plan B Hygiene & wound care kits Sharps containers
I never expected to see a statement from the Leader of the Free World to that reads like a casual question from an elementary school student.

People who are very vocal about their "faith" tend not to be virtuous people extolling the reason for their virtues, but nefarious people seeking to camouflage their immorality.
I was feeling lonely, so I bought some shares. It's nice to have some company.
