Donald Trump dodged the draft but is happy to post photos of himself in uniform while he sends our kids to die in his war.
Is it me or did the Capital One affair not really break through On Here Another day, another scandal that would have tanked basically any other presidency
Tarrant County Commissioners Court went into closed session today because the MAGA county judge's effort to eliminate polling locations drew public protest
Asher Elbein@asherelbein.bsky.social · yesterdayMan, we are about to see some *crazy* panicked attempts at voter suppresion in this state
Call me crazy, but if a Democratic president had 350 accounts closed by their bank for money laundering it’d be more than a blip in the media

James Talarico on Texas officially banning THC: “Texans aren’t going to stop smoking weed and eating edibles because politicians in Austin say so. We are now telling full-grown adults how to live their lives. This is the nanny state at its worst; this is big government at its worst."
Every vote to confirm Todd Blanche as attorney general is a vote to continue the coverup of the Epstein Files.
Just went out to the movies for the first time in years to see The Odyssey... and then walked out an hour into the movie. My ears are still ringing from the volume. Not sure whether to blame the director or the movie house, but arrows shot from bows aren't loud in real life
WHY are doctors ignoring the InfoWars contagion? WHERE is Fauci?
By and large, I find Democratic voters generally to be kind, thoughtful people whose company I enjoy. Democratic political consultants, though, are typically among the rudest, most narrow-minded self-interested creeps in existence. I wonder why the latter group ever fails to excite the former
This is VERY bad. Congressional investigation immediately. They’re trying to use Palantir to figure out who you voted for. 0% chance this ends well. Stop it ASAP.
Exclusive: FBI gets voter's IP address in new fraud probe tactic
The move offers a glimpse into how authorities are now digging into voter rolls and registration practices.

The people responsible for a seven-digit body count wish to shift the blame to he who did the most to prevent that. They have no shame, I'm not even sure they have sentience
The Tennessee Holler @thetnholler.bsky.social · 6d agoHoly shit
Talarico here provides moral justification for DSA economic policy, framed for the less politically involved. This is smart politics
Team Talarico@teamtalaricohq.bsky.social · 6d agoJames Talarico: Everywhere I go, I hear about the struggles to afford the basics. Texans are drowning. And it’s because for 50 years, puppet politicians like Ken Paxton have been rigging this economy in favor of their mega donors at our expense. Trickle down economics is not a theory, it is theft.
History lesson: MAGA is the Klan The Klan became MAGA Two brands, one racist theme
Y'know, it's funny: Tubby defies all standards of Presidential behavior in terms of language, deportment, criminality, etc., and the Prestige Press acts like it's normal -- but they cover up that he falls asleep in public and shits himself and stinks like they've taken a vow of silence.

Fort Worth Star-Telegram@star-telegram.com · last wk.Can oysters actually elevate testosterone? Here is what current research confirms and where the science remains unproven.
It's important to understand that the "heartbeat" you hear in early ultrasounds is actually created by the machine, not the embryo. But crisis pregnancy centers lie to patients about this. www.npr.org/sections/hea...
The Texas abortion ban hinges on 'fetal heartbeat.' Doctors call that misleading
The Texas law bans abortions after a "fetal heartbeat" is detected, usually about six weeks into pregnancy. But doctors say that's not an actual medical term and it's being used inaccurately.

Kelcie Moseley-Morris@kelciemmorris.bsky.social · last wk.Another installment of our crisis pregnancy centers series is up now. Awesome work by @sofiaresnick.bsky.social "With the help of the Alliance Defending Freedom, crisis pregnancy centers have overturned or prevented disclosure laws from being enforced or blocked investigations in (three states)."
Mark this well. A public servant who performed admirably in a crisis is being publicly persecuted, maybe prosecuted. Govt websites are being given over to propaganda. Fake medicines are being praised while lifesaving vaccines are lied about. Slanderous grifters cackle their triumph. Despicable.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · last wk.Fauci accuses Rand Paul of having an "unhinged obsession with calling for my prosecution" and of making "repeated slanderous comments," then says "although it pains me to do so... under advice of my attorneys, I will invoke my right under the 5th Amendment to refrain from answering your questions."
sorry I haven't stopped laughing at that headline or the byline for a solid five minutes "Boy George's pro-Israel song is as punk as it gets" by Brendan O'Neill Be serious, lads
flyingrodent@flyingrodent.bsky.social · last wk.All this shows is that even Britain’s most iconoclastic, rules-breaking rebels of 1980s music are just another bunch of boring as fuck driving-gloves Tories
Ken Paxton now owns at least 15 homes across the nation, worth $9 million. His current government salary is $153,000.
GM CEO Mary Barra is introducing Trump at his rally. Something to keep in mind if you're in the market for a vehicle anytime soon.
