This is a messy problem, but i think there’s lanes (lol) to make it less annoying. And I think the biggest one will be in the first 30-60 days of the next POTUS, and just putting on the protective gear and giving Iran global inclusion while saying “Trump’s lost war” a lot.

Honest question: What's the Democratic solution to this problem? I think they need one because this is likely going to be a problem until Trump's not in office, and nobody's going to be able to put the toothpaste back into the tube.

somewhere out there is a failed operation keno

On a personal level, what the various consultants did to Graham Platner is very fucked up; threw an unprepared schlub onto prime time where he crashed and burned.

Ok it’s pretty funny that she managed to not only lose but get absolutely blown out and then became the only notable primary loser from last night to refuse to support the winner

stevens gracefully concedes, schumer and gillibrand endorse sayed and some people are still big bad for reasons. Get over yourself, really.

absolutely no grace should be given to centrists who can't do at least this right now

This is just BlueSky 2024 posting about costs. GOP is burning their Gen Z base like Dems did in 2024.

for reasons that only make sense if you're insane, a TPUSA kid complaining about burrito costs on xitter has the GOP's biggest divas going for each other's throats.

El-Sayed: "Mike Rogers is a guy who wants to put a data center in your backyard so he can make himself feel a little more manly by making an AI video ... he's a guy who went back to Florida so he could lick every single boot Donald Trump owns to bet for his endorsement."

Watching the El-Sayed presser and noting the appeal to 2024 Trump voters on prices. Prompts the question: what is the pitch Rogers could make to Harris voters?

Oho: Russia needs a working peacetime economy, Moscow Mayor Sergey Sobyanin said, rejecting calls for full mobilization as "worthless." Russia is fighting on two fronts: the battlefield and its own economy. Without a healthy, stable economy, victory in war is impossible, he said.

I biked past a dude in Williamsburg wearing a trucker hat with bleach-fried hair who was wearing chunky sunglasses and a pink women's VEG❤️N t-shirt, and I think it's fascinating that those guys exist again

Let's all sit with the fact that the president wants to jail some random person who is self-evidently innocent. It's not surprising, but it's amazing that much of the media is almost completely disinterested in this fact.

Greg Sargent@gregsargent.bsky.social · 4h ago

It's funny that Jeanine Pirro brought a box of evidence to WH to persuade Trump. He wants her to consciously *throw out* exculpatory facts and *knowingly* prosecute innocent people. So facts can't persuade him by definition. Me and @barbmcquade.bsky.social on this: newrepublic.com/article/2139...

And this is a real cash liability. We will never know how liquid Trump is, but would you be surprised if Donald Trump’s financial well-being was actually a house of cards?

Bobby Kogan@bbkogan.bsky.social · 3h ago

Trump owes more than $100 million in unpaid taxes, so this is just a giant free check he gave to himself with taxpayer dollars

When I hear Max Miller speak, I instinctively know him because my sister-in-law married the same guy.

Are these people's brains so rotted that they genuinely do not remember four years ago?

Alexander Glass@alexanderglass.bsky.social · 10h ago

I have one answer.

the funny thing about people in the western world being angry at sikhs for taking all the trucking jobs is that people in India are also angry with them for taking all the trucking jobs. It's not you. It's what we do. We are the Truck Guys.

Yeah I mean I think you'd have to consider Burgum one of Trump's most "normal" appointees and Pirro one of the least, and yet...

Guy Gavriel Kay@guygavrielkay.bsky.social · 4h ago

And Doug Burgum makes a determined push to rise up the crowed ranks of the corrupt henchflunkies.

Shes in the barrel this time. No doubt she’s pondering the devil speech from a Man for All Seasons with a new sense of appreciation.

It's very very strange to be in a situation where Jeanine Pirro is the sane and responsible one!

My thoughts on the current Bluesky discourses: Whenever Odysseus's not on screen, all the posters should be asking, "Where's Odysseus?"

One reason I’m not terribly worried about the Michigan race is this is a very easy slam dunk for Public Health expert El-Sayed to make the general election about. And if he can’t hit that? Well that’s on him.

They are the first reported deaths linked to a massive outbreak of the intestinal illness that began in May.

Bluesky's new CEO Toni Schneider on the platform's reputation for being a liberal bubble: "Yes, we definitely want that to change. It is already changing. It certainly wasn’t designed to attract one specific group of people."

Trump is appealing the district courts denial(?) of their notice of dismissal following the Blanche Trump settlement. Blanche can say whatever he wants put the settlement between the government and a “private” litigant exists.

Social media is not a free fire zone for an official involved in an investigation. Still charge him for obstruction

The judge should drag him into court to say this on the record. Pirro and her staff were subject to ethics rules and contempt restrictions. They couldn’t suborn perjury. Burgum and Trump are posting on social media. They can lie with impunity there.

Shipwreck@shipwreck75.bsky.social · 2d ago

A senior officer in US Central Command’s (CENTCOM) intelligence branch emailed a broad group of military analysts seeking “new creative and unconventional ways to pressure and punish Iran.” A second source indicated a similar request went out the prior week.
