American politics has become so juvenile and vulgar. That said, Ted Cruz is a shameless pig.

Ok, but will John Thune actually do anything about it? There was reason to hope Thune might be an improvement over McConnell as the Senate GOP leader. But so far, not so much.

a real gentleman and a leader. God I miss those days

yes cheap, but for those who with limited means a fully covered flu or covid vaccine can be the difference between getting the shot and choosing not to. So ins. coverage is meaningful for many, especially senior citizens on fixed incomes.

sad but true.......

Trump lives in a reality-free zone. Everything is just made-up fiction.
Greg (@runner4fun.bsky.social) reply parent
Exactly.
Greg (@runner4fun.bsky.social) reply parent
But will medicare (unlikely) and commercial insurers (possibly) cover the cost of vaccine shots when the CDC doesn't recommend them?

wonderful!

Don't hold your breath.

There'll be no money, but when you die, you will achieve total consciousness. Which is nice.

I believe that actual quote of Tillerson was that "Trump is a f.......g moron." The descriptive adjective is important, I think.

Our country has lost its mind.
Greg (@runner4fun.bsky.social) reply parent
This is the thing. For reasons none of us will ever understand, Trump hates our country and is doing everything in his power to destroy it.

Death comes for every man. I pray for Trump's peaceful and imminent passing.

When these Trump years are behind us, I so hope there is absolute hell to pay for these idiotic traitors.
Greg (@runner4fun.bsky.social) reply parent
Now, that is an excellent question.

Maybe it just needed a little space and time away.

more stupidity signaling from the Trump administration.

Right, let's not trust the experts who actually have studied an issue and devoted their lives to it. Let's trust a former heroin addict and entitled silver spooner with a brain worm issue. Who talks funny.

JFK, Jr. appears to be immuno-compromised. He has a long history of drug use and just looks and sounds unhealthy. (I am not a physician.) We can hope he contracts Covid and his co-morbidities complicate his illness and recovery without the mRNA vaccine. Just saying.

We need our own version (appropriately vulgarized and dumbed down) for London Bridge is Down
Greg (@runner4fun.bsky.social) reply parent
It won't exactly be "London Bridge is Down" but maybe "The First Tee Box is Flooded". We should start a contest for who can come up with the best 'POTUS is dead' security code.

I'd be amazed if Ernst doesn't run again. She probably doesn't know how to do anything but be a US Senator. But then again, there was her town disastrous hall meeting and the follow up idiotic snarky video.....

No issue is too small, irrelevant to the matters of state, or outright fictional for our commander in chief to waste time and nonsense on.

JD Vance just lies incessantly and shamelessly. The arrogant gas lighting and mendacity are pretty amazing.

The pendulum will inevitably swing back, and when it does, there will be hell to pay for Trump and his team.

Is Nancy Mace the next Kari Lake or Sarah Palin? One can hope.
Greg (@runner4fun.bsky.social) reply parent
Whatever talent and potential Vance had has been destroyed by his capitulation and sycophancy to Trump. I hope we never hear of him again when this administration is finished. What a turd.
Greg (@runner4fun.bsky.social) reply parent
He's very charming. Can he run NYC? I think we may find out.

I grew up in So Cal with fires and earthquakes. I now have a house in hurricane country. But nothing scares me like a tornado. That thing looks alive and evil.

As a new homeowner in Mace's district, I only hope the good people of South Carolina see her what she is and ignore her campaign for governor. She exemplifies the mediocre GOP candidates that the MAGA movement has swept out of the sewers.

Rubio has completely sold his soul. Pathetic.
Greg (@runner4fun.bsky.social) reply parent
I agree. But there is more here than Trump just getting rolled by Putin. Trump is irrationally deferential to Putin, as if Putin has terribly damaging information Trump that always causes Trump to knuckle under to Putin. Treating the Russian president as an equal to the US President is absurd.
Greg (@runner4fun.bsky.social) reply parent
Maher has rendered himself irrelevant.
Greg (@runner4fun.bsky.social) reply parent
Putin must have something very, very dark on Trump.
Greg (@runner4fun.bsky.social) reply parent
What does Putin have on Trump? It must be very very bad.
Greg (@runner4fun.bsky.social) reply parent
It could have been MUCH worse. Trump could have come out and announced that he conceded vast Ukrainian territories to Russia. The meeting was a failure in the normal sense. But given how much damage Trump could have caused, this is a relief.
Greg (@runner4fun.bsky.social) reply parent
It's one thing to be a NY real estate investor and developer with an inherited nest egg. It's quite another to pretend you have the mettle to be US President.
Greg (@runner4fun.bsky.social) reply parent
We all know that Trump is silently steaming about these glorious tweets. We al also know Trump cannot keep his mouth shut for long.......

Greg (@runner4fun.bsky.social) reply parent
Trump is so full of shit.
Greg (@runner4fun.bsky.social) reply parent
Newsom and Pritzker both certainly have the substantive chops, political skill and intellect to be president. After Trump, will America be ready to elect a former CA Governor or former Illinois Governor as President? One can hope. Just think how great that would be.

It may just be me, but I suspect that the pierogi seller happily sells to many Jewish customers, and that this is more about Dershowitz than the seller. Just a hunch.
