Lawyer. Liberal. Chicagoan. (Northwest Burbs, really.) Blocking and reporting idiots for sport. Not quite ready to sell my soul for three-dollar gas just yet, thanks. Pronouns: dat guy / dat freakin' guy / dat guy's.
Oh, we're coming for everybody now. List made. Double-checked it just now. Whole lotta naughty MAGA people.

El-Sayed’s response to Kennedy:
We wake up, every morning, not knowing that this man is in charge... for a few blissful moments. Maybe longer. Our brains are foggy and blank. Then a thought goes onto a topic of concern and OH GOD HE'S REALLY IN OFFICE. I have begun to notice, and appreciate, those morning moments. 🙂 ... 😑
Trump: I could say the stupidest things and you'd clap
Stanford 0:37 Notre Dame. At half. If we were smart, we'd go to the airport right now. #GoStanford #NoReallyGo
Boy, tomorrow's gonna be fun in the #PremierLeague. #CRYNFO to start. The Glasner Cup. And the Blue Lunar Eclipse that will be #LIVMCi at Anfield follows. Uff da.

Oh. They're not taking the hint.
Watching football this weekend? Don’t be surprised if you see more political ads for elections you can’t vote in — because they’re in states hundreds of miles away from you. Via @kylechouinard.bsky.social of @washingtonsun.com, who explains here: www.washingtonsun.com/influence/po...
Good Lord -- this guy is bumbling to the finish line. The odds are getting shorter by the minute on a social media post from You Know Who that causes a GOP notable [who is not retiring, and is not currently in a close one] to publicly tell him off, properly. 19:1 chance now, I'd reckon.
We went from sanctioning Russian oil to buying it in three weeks. Instead of ending his disastrous war in Iran, Trump is now funding Russia's war in Ukraine. We used to hold dictators and autocrats accountable. Now our president negotiated a deal to fund Putin's unjust war.

Dem Blake Gendebein leading MAGA Constantino by 4 points in latest poll of NY-21, district currently represented by Elise Stefanik, who won by 21 points last time. C’mon, #NY21!!!!!!!!! www.timesunion.com/capitol/arti...
So all those projections from the ratings-issuing nerdshops, as to #NYGov being listed at Safe Dem Hold, are not total bullshit, then. Got it. YIKES.
Blakeman: "I'll take any 12 year old Black kid in New York state, he knows more about a computer than Kathy Hochul will ever know!"
What does this even mean? I mean, I know it's creepy and weird and misogynistic. "J.D. Vance" does what it says on the label. But... how does this... exactly... I give up. [sighs, dejectedly]
JD Vance on Amy Acton: "I did promise Amy that I would meet her at a bar later. I understand she's into that sort of thing, so I'm gonna try to get to know her."
Bit late, guys. But.... fine.

Of course we did. Another shit fit from the Shitter in Chief.

We are studiously Not Getting Excited — burned too much recently — but it’s a very comfy non-excitement.
Today, The Cook Political Report is moving 18 House races, all in Democrats' direction. With these new moves, we’re also adjusting our range: the most likely outcome is now that Democrats will pick up nine to 19 seats. Read more from @erincovey.bsky.social:
A livestreamed execution was always the logical next step.
UFC-style gladiatorial spectacle should be deeply troubling on republican grounds because it abstracts violence from its political and moral ends, imbuing it with civic meaning corrosive of self-government.
The Tightening. It's coming. Hang on.
Leans Dem -> Toss Up 🟦Amy Acton - 59% 🟥Vivek Ramaswamy - 41% Ohio's Governor race is back in the Toss Up column. Democrat Amy Acton remains the favorite, and leads Republican Vivek Ramaswamy in our polling average by a margin of 4.2%.
Make the man happy, Woody. I mean: the N.Y. Jets are 1-3. The win was against Tennessee; they're horrible. No need to worry about splashing cash Stateside. PAY SARR. DAMMIT. 😐👈 #CPFC
Palace manager Pierre Sage says Ismaila Sarr is close to signing a new contract with the club. Says he has seen a positive change in him this week in training Agreed with chairman Steve Parish that Sarr deserves an excellent reception No Henderson, Tomiyasu or Mateta on Sunday #CPFC
Coming to this conclusion would require Pete Hegseth, Stephen Miller and Donald Trump to think critically and consider possible adverse outcomes. Alas: not a club in any of their golfbags.
Beyond matters of taste and decency and whether or not you even believe in the death penalty due to moral reasons, livestreaming the execution of Nidal Hasan is a dumb idea because you're giving him his moment of public martyrdom.
The idea of executions being live-streamed is absolutely sick and disgusting. You don’t hate Pete Hegseth enough

The bigotry is really is all they have left. They have no economic argument to make -- so much so that they reduce an entire economic system (which is what socialism is by definition) into a brown person getting a job and Riley Gaines not cracking the top four in a swimming race.
Q: How do you define socialism personally? JD VANCE: I think in reality what it actually means in the American context is you want to replace American workers with foreigners workers, and you want boys to play in girls' sports
We are either looking at a polling miss of enormous proportions or an impending landslide. Finish.
New @CookPolitical: 18 more House ratings move in Dems' direction, including four GOP incumbents from Toss Up to Lean D. Full analysis by @ercovey: www.cookpolitical.com/…
Navi Pillay is an exceptional choice as the recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize. Anti-apartheid campaigner, ally and appointee of Nelson Mandela, and an international human rights leader for decades, she chaired the independent UN Commission that charged Netanyahu with inciting genocide in Gaza.
And now with the fucking trans panic ad again. Fuckers.
Well. Only way out is through, fellas. You give up the runs, you take 'em back. Them's the rules. #WhiteSox
