A dying breed, soon to be a fossil: conservative, compassionate, empathetic, supportive, believer in facts, truth, honor, integrity, democracy, science, education, liberty. In other words, the antithesis of MAGAts.

Trump is such a classless cheap-ass. Notice the “gold” appliqués above each presidential photo. Just part of his gaudy polluting of the White House. Now notice where they come from. Yeah. Just gilded polyurethane foam appliqués from Home Depot.
Hear him out!
Hear me out.
All police misconduct cases paid out of police pension funds.
Because as a citizen I'm really sick of public funds being used to pay these AND having to worry about a cop doing something shitty to me because they have no accountability.

If Democrats fail to leverage the power that voters are about to grant them, and take extraordinary actions to impose extraordinary justice and punishment for the extraordinary abuse of power and corruption being done by Republicans and oligarchs, it will be Democrats who have failed democracy.

Decades ago, Republicans discovered some secret sauce that convinces people to hand over power to politicians, who will openly pursue policies directly against their best interests.
There’s a special place in hell for women who betray other women. Angela Paxton appears to have the address.

Here’s a thought:
1. ICE needs to fill their quota.
2. ICE checks the immigration records and sees someone still going through the system.
3. ICE accesses DMV records and finds their target owns a car, and notes the license plate #.
4. ICE goes to Flock, Flock tracks down the car, directs ICE.

Because Trump is so bad at doing America, the only thing standing between democracy and a total capitulation to Russia…is Ukraine.

Decades ago some unfortunate soul accidentally typers in the wrong email address to an Oklahoma State Alumni Association. That email address is mine. After getting slammed with stuff for a “Connie” I finally managed to get myself removed from that email list.

Now that the dust has settled, we know why Katie Britt had this look on her face.
MAGA GOP had teed up a news and social media blitz to boost Eric Schmitt into the limelight and trigger MAGA using Jack Smith as chum. Everything was planned, sound bites and all. Her’s is the “Fuck! Too late!” face.

Meanwhile, down the hall, this same government is busy moving the Save College Sports Act into law, imposing heavy regulation on a social pastime only because the power of labor (the athletes) has gotten totally out of control.
Trump on giant AI companies: "They're gonna police. They're gonna police each other. They're gonna self-police. They're gonna police themselves. It's gonna work out very well."

If you ever find yourself frustrated over the state of your home entertainment smart TV and streaming services, check yourself into the nearest hotel and force yourself to endure what constitutes broadcast TV.

Trump is a very stupid man. Had he even one tiny brain cell, he would not grind everybody into yet another taxpayer draining Constitutional crisis over press access.
Simply allow press to the briefing room, and then leaving the podium empty all day, every day.

Notice in this mid-term campaign season three things:
1) GOP candidates are starting to align themselves with party instead of Trump.
2) The GOP is starting to reclaim policies they abandoned for 12 years.
3) This GOP is way too incompetent to pull off #2 with any credibility.

Trump is not proposing to arm his “Triumphant Arch” to the teeth so that he can lay waste to citizen protesters.
He is doing it so that he and all his lackeys can justify building the arch in the first place, overcoming objections because the “Arch” will then be “critical for national security”.

We are doomed. The Internet has enabled far too much power to far too many people who are civically illiterate.
I’m in a conversation elsewhere concerning the socialistic aspects of first responders, and a MAGAt comes barking in to insist that “first responders are not government.”

It seems to me, having watched their particular shenanigans for decades, that the leadership of AIPAC must be losing their shit.
The reaction to this Ed Sheeran episode merely adds to the reality that America has an upcoming voting base which will never forget what Israel is doing to Gaza today.

So two defenders of the Constitution decided that the authors of the Constitution were too stupid when, right off the bat in Article 1, they wrote that States were to be in control of their elections.
And their logic is that if States use the postal service, they forfeit authority to the Executive?
