I can totally see Trump's family adopting the Ivana casket/classified docs theory (which hasn't been disproven), cremating him, and burying the Epstein files and videos with him, never to be exposed.

Think the SS will allow Hunter to place a hollowed out, ceremonial laptop shell on the bottom-half casket lid next to Hillary's hollowed out, ceremonial private server?

Trump's got to be feeling the FOMO. The other dictators know how he loves a military parade but not a single one thought to forward that eVite.
Just a (un)friendly little warning from Putin and Xi as a prelude to Xi's military parade?
⚡️ Suspected Russian jamming hits von der Leyen's plane over Bulgaria, FT reports. Suspected Russian interference forced European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen's plane to land in Bulgaria using paper maps, the Financial Times reported.
Oh, the irony if #DonaldTrump dies before Joe Biden. What will corporate media do with itself?
True. I meant Trump and Bibi specifically.
Greed.
He's going to move the graves of their loved ones going back centuries, too, right? Pfft. 'Course not. He'll just pave over 'em with limestone plus. 🤬
Schumer's going to cave again. Circumstances haven't changed one bit from his position in mid-March. The regime will get its funding one way or another, so Chuck will just lay down again.
I'm on the far South Side so won't be up there, but I will be downtown as often as possible. (Driving so I can bring my signs and in case they shut down the Metra stations.)
Guess I'll try for the billion-plus prize. If I win I'll use the after-tax ~quarter mil to start a fund to flip a magenta state with a decent number of electoral votes blue.
🤣
Ha. I tried to stick with your not-see theme. The Footloose evangelicals were a logical extension. And, yes, Grease > Footloose.
Surprised you didn't include Footloose. (I almost did.) 😁
They apparently never watched "Swing Kids." Non-n a z is have always been about dancing. 😂
I haven't been 13 in a while and don't know who this Alex person is, but are we 💯 certain they're talking about bread here?

What? No Teslas?
And with great pride.
Has his loyalty purge of the military reached down to the bombardiers and silo crews yet? I smell a future "training accident."
That type of post on that app is for sure remarkable.
Hurricane forecasts are now much more accurate, 20 years on — largely because of federal government research.
When that story broke and the home's first photos were published, I just assumed there were 17-18 sub-basements, a lab, a tunnel complex to random, nondescript warehouses in the area and a dedicated space laser guarding the perimeter from dog walkers, subscription sellers, and errant Frisbees.
So, surfaces very important. Check. Limestone > roses, flowers, grass, and things that grow. Check. But, hey, that video equipment! Check. 🤦🏼🤦🏼🤦🏼 #25th #25thNow
🤬
Please let him request to be buried near a coast. Then, because of his reversal of climate mitigation action and cessation of green energy initiatives, his marker will be under water in 40 years. #Isn'tItMoronic
Agree with every word
Remember November, 2023, I think it was? When Elon had threatened to shutter Twitter? The collective gallows humor that weekend was the funniest thing I'd seen since I signed up in '07. Last night was the antithesis on Bluesky. Much more buoyant.
Imagine how quickly those Epstein files will magically appear if ...
A successful NIL suit from any of those mentioned could go a long way in helping the case(s) of artists and authors whose IP has been scraped to train the LLMs in the first place.
They're shitty drivers and parkers, too.
When this shakes out I can see the remaining purple states being flooded with new residents a la the slavers and abolitionists competing to settle territories so they could be admitted as slave or free.
Pursuing that theory to the end of Trumpian logic, we must annex ... every piece of land on the map, you know, for national security.
No one voted for this.
Variation: Guns are the AOL CDs of the iPhone era.
Lord Trump's Righteous Smiters. Heggy must be so proud that his cause has germinated in other (armed) segments of the Executive.
When I worked in KC for many years, he was one of those respected local journalists delivering the news at 5, 6, & 10. Many of us had no idea he was about to quit and go full maga.
Can someone meme the naked South Park Trump onto the logo and call it Cracker Bare-All?
When Stephen Miller pulls from his most vicious ICE recruits to form his Aryan Revolutionary Guard Corps, I imagine he'll dress them in red armor and capes.
ANGRY @jvl.bsky.social took to @thebulwark.com today: "Trump is waging war against the American government. When he’s done, he’ll use his government to wage war against Americans." www.thebulwark.com/p/the-cdc-th...
C'mon, JB. Make it so.

He's conjuring Josef Mengele already? I thought he'd at least wait until we annex Canada.
Ruin a book by adding "Tom Clancy's" to the title: Tom Clancy's The House at Pooh Corner
Their vision for Americans is sick, weak, poor, dumb, and afraid. A carry-over theme from his first term.
At what point does the felon order the weekend talk show host to just go ahead and issue red caps to the military? The higher the rank, the more verbose the golden slogans, I'm guessing.
I never gave it much thought. Off the top of my head my only guess is that they seem to be, just, everywhere. 😁

A 24-year military veteran speaks out about the National Guard.
The only things that disturbe me in horror movies are dolls and little kids with hatchets or scalpels who just appear out of nowhere. Great to know the Bible Belt is breeding them. Just great. 🤦🏼
I know you, Chicago — and I know you’re up to the difficult time we have ahead, thanks to this President.
BREAKING: Judge Lamberth orders Kari Lake to sit for a deposition about whether she is operating Voice of America up to legal minimum standards. He says this is "one final opportunity" before a contempt trial.
a bit late but the whole jillian michaels thing last week gave me an excuse to talk a bit about the economy of slavery in detail youtu.be/pRs2Xu1FWR4
Donald Trump is equal parts Jeff Davis the traitor, Mussolini the clown, Hitler the sociopath, David Duke the white Christian nationalist, and Jim and Tammy Faye Bakker the grifting hypocrites (+ the makeup).
Holy shit, JB! You nailed it. #NoDictators #StayAwayDonnie #LeaveOurCityAlone
A new White House fact sheet stresses that Chicago has the most murders of any U.S. city in each of the last 13 years + the highest murder rate of any U.S. city w/ 1 million people. That sheet does *not* mention that numerous other cities have a significantly higher murder rate.
We need to collectively beg the media—all media and pundits—when the time comes to just skip their endless, hourly, pre-canned retrospective packages and simply, if anything, say, "He's gone."
The train is more affordable ($$)—and electric—but ... 1. My signs are cumbersome (36"x48") 2. If things get crazy, it'd be nothing for the regime to block off Millennium Station. I'd be stuck. What to do? 🤔 2/2
Decisions. I'm just outside Chicago city limits. Metra station = 15-min. drive/48-min. ride. Expressway = 8 min. away + 45-90 min. drive. Driving down to film & #protest, I can bring my signs & have multiple routes out of downtown. But parking sucks & is $$$$. 1/2
Where, pray tell, are these magical countries where no murders ever happen, Dear Cheater? 🧐🤔
Biggest tell? Dictators never refer to themselves as dictator. Supreme leader, father, "president,"* etc., but never dictator.
A 12-minute break from all the fascism. 2% politics, 99% fun from @lastweektonight.com youtu.be/W3V1oswZM-o?...
@billkristolbulwark.bsky.social: It's not backsliding, it's a march to dictatorship. Only @thebulwark.com
Not bad. You're too young to remember Dan Bern's visceral folk during the Dubya era. We need more artists like these.
🤦🏼
Hey, Moses. Instead of your state's National Guard members stalking D.C. streets, wouldn't Louisiana be better served if Landry had them scouring your own state for Derrick Groves? You know, the last of the NOLA prison escapees out and about among your citizenry? 🤔
If I'm this slow in three years (Dean's age), just drop the Hoveround box in my driveway and subscribe me to Butterscotch Monthly.
It is ridiculous that Donald Trump has ceded so much power to Laura Loomer—an ignorant bigot who’s constantly spreading conspiracy theories. by Elon Musk
No. That would be too woke for the regime.
😂😂😂
💯
And since they'll certainly be produced overseas, we'll have to pay the tariffs plus a monthly rental fee, the latter going straight to the "Pave the Ellipse" fund.
Oh, great. So, faux, tacky epaulets, then.
Will our regime uniforms be fitted or just off the rack?
I'll be sure to ask around while I'm downtown next week.
Donald Trump says he is going to deploy the National Guard to Chicago. This is what weak men do to pretend they’re strong. Stay safe, stand with your community, and most importantly, know your rights:
Democratic governors and leaders, fight while you can, as hard as you can. Trump and MAGA are going full fascist. They're coming after all of us, including you. You can't make "deals" with fascists. You have to FIGHT them. FIGHT, finally, please.
Slightly off topic: A much younger person in my old jj school, far more advanced than I, graduated h.s. and went off to the Air Force academy. On her first trip back she commented how "meh" their training was. She was not impressed.
😡 We tried to tell people 10 years ago. They thought we were crazy. There's no satisfaction in stating this, just the fact part.
Oh wait … that thing every #climate scientist told us was going to happen for the last 15 years is actually happening?!?!?!?! “Rapid loss of Antarctic ice may be climate tipping point, scientists say” - www.reuters.com/sustainabili... Trending Content
Exactly.
That's part of my unspoken point. I don't expect many of our electeds to cave to mass language shifts based on ... whatever this is. And I think more of our voters than the use or misuse of some words on occasion by those electeds to cause the voters to opt out.
He said it. Chicago is next. This is an authoritarian order being pushed by a racist wannabe-dictator to terrorize one of America’s bluest and most diverse cities. Video incoming re: knowing your rights when the National Guard invades our city.
I believe I posted this after one of his earliest tariff threats aiming heavily at China (at the time):
This is getting very bad: *FBI raids top Trump critic's home *Trump loyalist gins up "mortgage fraud" pretexts for DOJ probes of Schiff, Letitia James, Lisa Cook *Bannon says ICE will monitor 2026 voting *DHS memo vows LA operations "for years to come" New from me: newrepublic.com/article/1994...
If dem voters stay home over semantics, we deserve more of this mess.* I'll wait for Pew or someone to tell us such usage actually dampens turnout among registered voters. * Sorry. I'm a bit grudge-y over the large percentage of couch sitters who could render Trumpism moot.
I still have this CD somewhere around here .
"mRNA is one of the most promising technologies for preventing and treating any kind of disease that you can imagine. Stopping development could put cures of chronic diseases such as cancer and HIV out of reach." My comments on mRNA research defunding in @prismreports.org:
I love when she subs for Nicolle.
