Every new revelation makes you wonder what took Moreno so long to speak out
David Earl Williams III@dewforpolitics.bsky.social · yesterdaySen. Bernie Moreno said Rep. Max Miller refused to return his granddaughter’s favorite blue bunny. Reports also show that photos of a syringe and 150mg weed gummies were found in Miller’s bedroom.
Todd Blanche dropping any “assurances” about Trump’s criminal slush fund shortly after he’s confirmed is a very easy prediction. Incredibly obvious stuff, based on repeated patterns. The only question is if Senators Cornyn and Tillis choose to fall for it. Entirely a choice.
The WNBA has never had a trans woman play in the league’s 30-year history and now the right and other anti-trans activists are hammering the league over something that has never been an issue, proving once again it isn’t about protection but exhibiting cruelty toward trans people.

Burgum was once a "respected" figure. Much like Marco Rubio and JD Vance, he ran against Trump for the GOP nomination and said he would never do business with him. Now this.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · last mo.BASH: But it peeled off. Why did that happen? BURGUM: It didn't peel off. There was vandalism. There was box cutters. There have been 7 arrests. BASH: There are photographs of people cutting a 350 foot gash in the reflecting pool? BURGUM: Dana, I'm not sure why you keep questioning it
People were upset about a novel virus, the death and suffering it caused, and the social disruption to avoid more death and suffering. But getting mad at a virus isn’t emotionally satisfying. So find a person to blame, ideally someone you already hate. They victimized you! Yeah, that’s the stuff.
Shouldn’t we have a charging network for like cars first?

Yes Republicans. You should definitely be pro data center in the midterms. That's a guaranteed winning strategy
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 3w agoEnergy Secretary Chris Wright: "Gov. Hochul has it exactly backwards. Data centers are the greatest tool we have right now to stop the rise of electricity prices."
He made it up. He’s senile. He doesn’t know what’s happening. But you keep acting like it’s normal
The New York Times@nytimes.com · 3w agoPresident Trump has said that the United States will charge a 20% fee on cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz, despite his own administration’s position that such fees violate international law. Here's what to know.
Doctors say that explosive diarrhea can be a sign of a serious medical condition. A guy who snorts cocaine off toilet seat seats and drives dead bears around in his car says its nature’s way of expelling the toxins from 5G radiation. For busy Americans, it can be hard to know who to trust.
I know the war is still going because my neighbor who is the Navy Secretary still has security outside his house
Mark Jacob@markjacob.bsky.social · 3w agoTrump says the Strait of Hormuz is "open as far as we're concerned." Just like the war is already won, and reality is just a personal opinion.
Live your life in such a way that, when you die, people don’t have to rush to say, “Please be polite!”
My lasting image of Lindsey Graham will always be when he theatrically declared “Count me out. Enough is enough!” after January 6th — and then got back in with Trump more than ever before for Trump 2.0
Lindsey Graham: “Count me out. Enough is enough”
Graham concluded by saying that “Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are lawfully elected and will be the president and vice president of the United States on January the 20th,” earning applause from his coll...

Curious: Did Lindsey Graham object or say anything when Robert Mueller died and Trump tweeted something to the effect of, “good riddance”? If not, I assume that means he was OK with celebrating a man’s death. So.
they really told us their tech was so good it registered three strands of hair and days later the ball smashes into a metal cable and nothing happens. alright. ok.
