Former special counsel Robert Mueller was asked if Russia is still interfering in our elections. He responded “They’re doing it as we sit here” during his 2019 congressional testimony.
Heads up: The Russian government has been targeting Americans with covert online disinformation operations seeking to undermine public confidence the midterms — using a familiar playbook in an attempt to inject chaos into the voting season, according to U.S. officials familiar with the matter.
Russia Aims to Inject Chaos Into Elections, U.S. Intelligence Finds

Okay, I've TRIED, I swear to fucking god, I've TRIED to maintain a positive attitude.

Lots to be grateful for, YADDA fuckin' YADDA.

I'm having a shitty motherfucking year.

I was going to say SUMMER, but then I started counting.

Fuck this fucking goddamned fucking year.

And fuck TODAY.

FUUUUCK.
Jon Stewart: F*** This Shit!
Alt: Jon Stewart screaming FUUUUUUUUUUUCK as he shakes his fists at the heavens is pretty much my mood right now. But then, that's been my mood since...let's just be generous and say November of 2000. We can say there was a little time off for good behaviour - a few months between November 2008 and... February 2009. But that's about it. The rest has been shit. And that's just the fucking POLITICAL world. I haven't even BEGUN to touch on my fucking PERSONAL life. THAT? That has been shit since forever. My son has been pretty much the sole light in a reign of evil fucking soul-sucking darkness. Recently there has been another light, flickering dimly... but the darkness still reigns, mostly. And I just want to fucking pay the fine and go home, man. I AM SO FUCKING TIRED.

COVER UP! Epstein files cover up by Todd Blanche! Todd Blanche has no business being anywhere near DOJ. DOJ is now weaponized by Blanche and Trump. Blanche is still Trump's attorney. This is crazy town.

Taking an informal little poll, here…

When did YOU get a vote on the economic & social systems we’ve been stuck with all our lives & humanity has had foisted upon it for eons?

I don’t remember getting a vote on whether or not the 1% getting 95% was a GREAT FUCKING IDEA.

Was my ballot misdirected?

How’s that investigation of Epstein’s Zorro ranch in NM going? They find where the children’s bodies were buried?
Their blind spot has a driveway.

Stop calling Neville Trump’s contemptible DocuSign two-pager a deal.

It’s not a deal. It’s literally just a memo (an MOU).

For that matter, stop calling the memo “bad.”

It’s not merely bad—it’s a surrender, by the United States, to the Islamic Republic of Iran.

It’s a *historic disaster*.

Obama: "It's a reminder that on a lot of different foreign policy problems, the notion we can just bully our way or bomb our way to solution may sometimes seem appealing ... You'd think we would've learned that lesson by now, but it seems like every so often we have to learn that lesson again."

We tore down the "assembled in America" Trump phone, X-rayed it, and conducted a technical analysis.

It is nearly identical to the HTC U24 Pro, which is made by a Taiwanese company with Chinese parts.

It’s the BEST INFLATION.

Nobody’s ever SEEN inflation this good.

It’s the biggest, the most beautiful, most powerful inflation in the history of ever.

“Dear Suzanne,

Luka is the most compelling piece of music I’ve heard in a long time. There are no words 2 tell U all the things I feel when I hear it.

I thank God 4 U,
