My 93 yo mother watches The View. JD Vance is on today. He’s pulling some mansplaining bullshit, acting better than the women who run the show. Vance’s superiority complex because he is the WHITE MAN onstage is palpable. He deserves a public gelding.

NY transplant living in Chicago. Rabid liberal. Not willing to forgive those who enabled Trump.
Caroline Leavitt is the new Tokyo Rose. Holy shit can she lie with confidence and aggression. At least she’s ditched the glossy gold cross. The Christian values she claims to revere are lacking in her speeches.
@laurenunderwood.bsky.social Is this a second account? I follow a different Lauren Underwood account too?
@underwood.house.gov Maybe step up and oppose Noem. This issue is too important to stand on the sidelines.
Tom Homan on camera in the Twin Cities. He’s wearing someone else’s suit. There is no way that suit belongs to him. It’s swallowing him, live.
The World Cup and Olympics cannot happen in the US. They cannot. Athletes and spectators cannot assume they would be safe here.
ICE keeps killing white people. I don’t think that’s what Stephen Miller wanted.
Jack Smith has a FANTASTIC poker face. Jim Jordan’s screed is background noise.
Tom Tillis is retiring and is using this to show some spine. Joni Ernst is retiring. She’s still a solid vote for everything Trump wants.
Gonna go look for pup rescue stories in Instagram. Trump’s lunacy is killing my sanity.
Let’s start a pool for 2026 - when do Alito and Thomas retire? They need to be sure Trump will replace them with Canon and Kacsmaryk before congress changes. My bet is April 15th.
Quick note while everyone sends thoughts and prayers to DC guardsmen and their families - IF prayers worked republicans would simply pray for tax cuts.
In the 2020 Census, Wilbur Ross manipulated census counts to pull representation from the Northeast and sent it to the south. It diminished house seats in NY and bulked up TX and FL. We cannot correct the math until 2030. We need to get it right in time for it to matter.
Unfollowing every democratic senator. Even the NO voters. How could the NOs not convince two yeses to vote no? It’s their job to be persuasive. They should be able to bring A FELLOW DEMOCRATIC senator along with them. Unfollowing them all. I’m not wasting my time with liars. Not volunteering again.
When republicans run ads saying “the democrat shutdown finally ended when democrats took yes for an answer. They FINALLY agreed to the SAME deal we’ve been offering FOR WEEKS” democrats will be sidelined. Goodbye midterm momentum. This is political malpractice. Shame on these democrats. And King.
Open enrollment IS NOW! A promised vote in December is meaningless. Thune will NOT honor it AND it will be TOO LATE TO MATTER!! Do not cave. Dumbest timing in the world. HOW do you expect voters to ever believe you? Ever?
Elise Stephanik thinks SHE is popular enough to win statewide in NY. It is HYSTERICAL and tone deaf. Stefanik is tired of having to drive across the vast emptiness of her enormous district. She wanted to be the UN Ambassador, but Trump couldn’t let her leave congress.!MaL makeover wasted. No NY job.
How was the DoJ able to hire George Santos and Laura Loomer during a shutdown BUT Mike Johnson cannot seat Adelita Grijalva during a shutdown? She is the voice of voters, not a supporter due a favor!
Chicago tourism broke records this summer. More rooms booked and $$$ spent in Chicago than ever before. Ask DeSantis how FL did. It wasn’t as good. But they have Alligator Alcatraz. Visit Chicago. Enjoy the city, the food, the people. We won’t make you feel ashamed of being American.
Trump is going to come back from his visit with the king and redesign his ballroom. Bigger. Grander. More really old shit. You get the gist. Like in England, but BIGGER.
You know it was Trump’s proudest moment as president to announce on Fox that the Kirk shooter has been caught. Trump as morning opinion show host. Better than Rosie or Whoopy or even Howard Stern. Shouldn’t a president have more pressing things to do than be the chief spokesmodel for fascism?
Cracker Barrel should have given out free t-shirts with the new logo. Trump used t-shirts to get “no” to “yes” on his budget busting bill. A free t-shirt goes a long way. Opportunity lost.
Putin speaks English. Trump does not speak Russian (and barely speaks English). Putin has the benefit of understanding what they discuss. Trump will be going on his gut.
What could be more perfect for today than the gluttony of a hot dog eating contest?
