Perhaps in the future a colon blockage will be known as a Trump Strait.
Waldo Jaquith@waldo.net · last mo.Renaming geographic features could easily become Trump's new solution to apply to all problems, as with tariffs. It costs him nothing, requires low single-digit minutes of work on his part, and it creates a response many orders of magnitude larger than his effort.
This is what the wise voters of Pennsylvania thought was a better idea than six more years of Bob Casey.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 4mo agoSen. Dave McCormick: "We don't know whether there is an actual path to a deal. I assume there is. I think the president is probably closing in on what he thinks is a good deal."
This is Nathan Cavanaugh, another DOGE staffer explaining how he flagged grants at NEH for "DEI" which would be reviewed for termination. 404 Media has reviewed hours of this footage and we'll have more soon. Part of a lawsuit by @acls1919.bsky.social, @modernlanguage.bsky.social + @historians.org
Mary Peltola is running for US Senate to represent Alaska. Please elect Mary to: ✔️Save Alaska’s Fisheries ✔️Lower Grocery Prices ✔️Lower Housing Costs ✔️Bring Down Energy Costs ✔️Fix DC-it’s broken! Elect Mary Peltola! #ResistanceUnited #ProudBlue #OneV1 #Pinks
Marsha and Tommy are running for Guv, so that leaves field wide open with MarkWayne's departure. Maybe OK will send a goat roper with a sixth grade education.

Cruise does his own stunts. As opposed to shitting his pants.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 8mo agoTrump at Natl Prayer Breakfst: "We prefer somebody that's a strong, powerful person w/extremely good vision that can shoot a rifle very well to a person that's extremely weak, non-muscular, can't shoot a rifle, has no idea where the hell he is. We have a military where they all look like Tom Cruise"
An actual Christian showed up at the prayer breakfast. The guy behind him has publicly worried about whether he's going to hell.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 8mo agowow -- with Trump standing behind him, a man (not sure who he is) offers this prayer: "We pray that he would be mindful of the poor and that he would be invested in the alleviation of suffering happening in the families preparing to bury their loved ones in Minneapolis."
WWJD? Not invite a dictator to a prayer breakfast. WWJ(also not)D? Call this a prayer breakfast.
Susan McPherson@susanmcp.bsky.social · 8mo agoThis is NOT The Onion or SNL. What an utter disgrace.
Seems like he may be catching on to what's actually going on.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 9mo agoROGAN: They said they released them, but what did they release? OTHER GUY: They're still not out yet. It feels like everything else has been drowned out by Somalians and the ICE shooting. It feels like Epstein is completely drowned out ROGAN: I think some of that is on purpose
We can argue about the quality of the mid-type Dems, but Cheeto getting his ass kicked in midterms kind of shifted the story away from the shutdown. And the GOP response was, so what, fuck SNAP. And 3 days after the Dem cave, Trump Season 5 goes Epstein files on steroids. Box of chocolates indeed!
Tim Miller@timmiller.bsky.social · 11mo agoImagine if Dems in the Senate hadn't caved. The House wouldn't be in session rn, the discharge petition wouldn't be signed, people wouldn't have SNAP, govt workers would be RIF'd & the GOP would have some decent talking points. But also online rage addicts would be happier! YMMV!
The lead person (by a lot, not a little) in my little corner of zoology is a woman.
Greg Pak@gregpak.net · 11mo agoIn 2005, Summers said women aren't as mentally equipped to be scientists as men (link below). Harvard didn't fire his ass then. Now in this 2017 email, he's making an insufferable, faux-clever "joke" about women's supposedly inferior IQ. He's been garbage for decades. www.pbs.org/newshour/sci...
Genius idea, would be completely off script for him. Shapiro announces his bid for Prez at 4 Seasons Total Landscaping.
Adam Bonin@adambonin.bsky.social · 11mo agoFive yrs ago today in my role as head of Voter Protection for Biden-Harris in Phila, at right about this moment, I was reaching out to our team to figure out who could sneak into a hastily-called press conference by Rudy Giuliani at the Four Seasons Hotel ... and then, what, it's going to be where??
Don Bacon - “He needs to face reality and learn how to talk to Democrats he can reason with.” Me - Don, he would have to be able to reason, and that isn't on offer. Never has been.
