A long hallowed corrupt practice. Joe Crowley, famous primary loser to AOC, gained his seat through similar legerdemain.
Some true shenanigans: Rep. Chuy Garcia reportedly ending reelection campaign just before candidate filing closes in Illinois and leaving his chief of staff, Patty Garcia, as the only Democrat on the ballot in this safely blue House seat.
U.S. Rep Jesus 'Chuy' Garcia won't seek reelection, leaves seat for chief of staff
Garcia, 69, has been a fixture in Chicago politics for four decades as an alderperson, Cook County commissioner, state senator and two-time mayoral candidate.

This photo is from *before* June 2026. Through some very strange legerdemain, McConnell has supposedly cast committee votes, too. Is he alive? Is he sentient? That's unclear. Major press fail.

legerdemain | noun | sleight of hand

This word comes from the Middle French 'leger de main,' which translates to "light of hand."

What an excellent communicator. So refreshing after all the political legerdemain we usually are fed.

Also, I realize this is my legerdemain, but I could make a better uplifting/religious movies list than the pope.

If I had 30 seconds of the Treasury secretary’s time, I’d ask him why he decided to use “prestidigitation” instead of “legerdemain.”

By hiding behind conceptual legerdemain—the unique history of “monetary policy” or whatever—the Court constitutionalizes current wisdom without allowing it to be debated and unduly constrains our own self-rule. It’s a kind of Lochnerism, as @andreascoseriakatz.bsky.social has argued. (6/8)

As if in a final burst of narratological legerdemain, John Barth appears to have outlived his own obituarist by fourteen years?

legerdemain over yelling into the void anyday.

I enjoy that we presumably both spotted this staggering piece of legerdemain independently.

I enjoy the idea that we help pensioners in poverty by giving money explicitly not to them

All the President’s Legerdemain
New acting U.S. attorney in DC seems to suggest federal prosecutors are the “President’s lawyers”

/1 Oh, lmao.

I think I see what they're doing.

Let me walk you through how this particular piece of verbal legerdemain works using an example more familiar to people, an employment contract.

(Spoiler: Playing dumb semantics word games that rely on people not knowing how trade negotiations work.)
Raddatz: "[Trump] said that he has made 200 deals on tariffs...Who has he made deals with? Is there actually any deal at this point?"

Bessent: "I believe that he is referring to sub-deals within the negotiations."

Raddatz: "But those aren't actually deals."

Loquacious [loh-KWAY-shuhs]
(adj.)
- Characterized by excessive speech; wordy.
- Overly talkative; prone to babblement.

Used in a sentence:
“Little leaves me as livid as a loquacious Luddite who lacks learning and loves the labyrinth of ludicrously lowbrow legerdemain.”

Jews are not Israel. Israel is not the Israeli government. These terms are not all synonymous but there is quite a bit of legerdemain with their use.

Remember when Jon Stewart went on Crossfire, and Tucker kept trying to pin him as the grand news voice of the Left?

"My lead-in is muppets making prank calls"

I feel like this is the same legerdemain.
