Whether it happens 6 hours from now, 6 days from now, 6 weeks from now, 6 months from now, or 6 years from now, it will be one of the largest worldwide celebrations in the history of the human race.

Trump: We can't take care of daycare. We're a big country. We're fighting wars. It's not possible for us to take care of daycare, Medicaid, Medicare, all these things.

1/ It's not just that unilaterally paying TSA agents is illegal. It's that Trump has now repeatedly undermined the core of the congressional power of the purse. He's not spending money that has been appropriated by law (impoundments) and he's spending money that has not been appropriated.

I will never get over Trump, Hegseth, and the US military launching missiles into an Iranian city and subsequently bombing a school filled with little girls. It's too hurtful to even think about. It paints a perfect portrait of Trumpism- with us forever, correctly defining who this person truly was

I wrote about how the US and Israel carried out an attack on an Iranian girls school on par with the OKC bombing and US media relegated it to a back page story. No stand alone evening news segments, no front page stories, it made A11 in the NYT then everyone moved on.

Corporate Media Buries Story of US and Israel Killing 168 in Girls School Attack

No front-page stories in NYT, WSJ, WaPo. No mention on NBC and CBS Sunday Shows. No stand alone segments on Evening News shows. A death count on par with the OKC bombing is relegated to the back page.

Ossoff: "Among today's false prophets are the election deniers who indulge this president's obsession with overturning the 2020 election. Hear me when I say this -- they tell a lie so absurd, and therefore so debasing, that the act of telling it proves the teller's total and humiliating submission."

This x 1000. There are effective ways to increase the impact and intensity of these hearings and Dem representatives have simply not been capable of executing on various fronts for a while. It regresses into an embarrassing display of unpreparedness. 🤷🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️

Can Judiciary Dems please hire an experienced litigator to conduct brief tutorials for members on how to question witnesses effectively. I realize this isn’t a courtroom and Bondi is determined just to yell and scream but we aren’t getting much done here either giving speeches.

Pete Carroll had the opportunity to kick a field goal and bring the #Raiders within a single score yesterday at the end of the 3rd. Instead, he went for it (4th and 3) didn't get it, and never got closer. Post-game, Carroll said, "If I had to do it again, I would have kicked it. That's on me." 🤡

My Los Angeles #Angels stayed relevant through mid-August, culminating in a season sweep of the rival Dodgers on 8/13. But they went 3-10 afterwards and the season effectively ended. ☠️ I'm happy they've moved on from Washington / Montgomery, and it's apparent that GM Minasian should be fired next 👋🏻

Though I'm conditioned to believe it will be short-lived, I can't help but be excited about the hot start for my LA Angels! 🔥 The Halos rotation looks better and their lineup is well-rounded with some firepower. I'm more excited than I've been in years! ⚾ @olbermann.bsky.social #Baseball #MLB

My favorite of the four legal thrillers I've read so far by @mikepapantonio.bsky.social, "Law and Vengeance" is a masterpiece. The intriguing story deals with human emotions and revenge. I love being in court with the Deketomis team as they take on the corporations who do us harm 👨🏼‍💻 #Booksky #Thiller

While only beginning @mikepapantonio.bsky.social's "Law and Vengeance", it's quite compelling and satisfying. I'm significantly engaged with the characters and ever-twisting plot, unsure about what lies behind every fun and exciting chapter. #Booksky 📚 #LegalThriller @ringoffiremedia.bsky.social
