I think last year disproved that.

There is much to say about the Union’s pathetic team this season, but it ain’t about Jim Curtin.

I knew back in November that this team was liable to win it all. They looked *that* good.

If you don’t believe me, believe Jamelle Bouie in the NYT, who writes about this frequently. There is literally nothing he can do to stop this. It’s all administered locally.

Does he have any scruples? No.

Will he be able to ratfuck the midterms? Also no. The most he can do is have some effect at the margins, which is terrible enough. But this wave will be way too much for them to do anything about.

Wait till the midterms come, and the GOP gets its collective ass handed to it in the House. The narrative you speak of will become terminal for his administration.

Live Updates: Key Justices Appear Skeptical of Limiting Birthright Citizenship

It appears that even this corrupt Supreme Court won’t go for the utter ludicrousness of banning birthright citizenship, which is plainly enumerated in the Constitution.

Which, of course, leaves us with the question of why they took the case in the first place…

The large majority of “Chronic Lyme Disease” is a psychosomatic condition egged on by quacks.

The AMA is a trade organization. Its true mission is to protect the financial interests of physicians.

No Kings Philadelphia

I’ve been wondering for months why state officials have been so passive about these threats. Get out ahead of it now! Before it happens, not after!

This seems like a superb idea.

I think we're going win, but I want to win hard enough that we start paying artists to paint murals in post offices again. (This time the post offices are also banks.)

I have not seen any evidence of dementia in him.

Don’t forget what a limited person he was to begin with. The guy doesn’t even *read*.

Also, people continue to have a lack of understanding of just how behaviorally warped he is. That’s psychiatric, not neurologic.

Sure. It could be any combination of:

*Aging
*Extreme stress
*Fatigue
*Decompensation around his severe personality disorder
*Medical illness
*Meds

He’s not demented.

He’s just a very limited man, in the most stressful job in the world. And it’s stretching against the bounds of his limits.

Tha sounds about right.

The problem is that a large fraction of the survivors have major neurologic deficits.

Ok that is truly hilarious.

If more income inequality, more fantasies about beating the rich.

Why don’t the rich understand this?

Thanks, but I don’t see any alt text…

It is a far worse fate to mistakenly post a picture of James Joyce thinking it’s Oscar Wilde than to have just not posted in the first place.

He has 5 turnovers too, so maybe a quintuple-double?

I mean it’s kinda worth announcing…

Why exactly would you blame Michigan Medicine for insisting on appropriate reimbursement for what they do?

As Josh Shapiro seeks reelection, his business-friendly brand has drawn millions from CEOs — including some with interests in Harrisburg Dozens of CEOs in industries ranging from coal mining to gambling to real estate are helping to bankroll Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro’s campaign. His fundraising could invite scrutiny ahead of 2028.

We should try capping political donations in PA. Tell Mike Bloomberg & Yass & Bezos & Musk—from now on, the max donation to a candidate for governor is $1,000 or whatever. Letting Bloomberg give $2.5M to our governor is bananas, no matter who the governor is. share.inquirer.com/1LtrB5

The Republicans are heading for a historic drubbing in the midterms, and no, Trump’s threatened proto-fascist bullshit won’t be even close to enough to stop it.

And despite the fact that this is entirely predictable, the whole narrative around Trump and the GOP will change dramatically.

So this is your fault then.

Exactly nobody is gonna have the slightest sympathy for the evil and regressive Iranian government.

But you don’t just take out the fucking leader and expect things to get better. What exactly does Apprentice President think is gonna happen now?!Underwear gnomes form a new government?

Trump aides struggle with how to spend $500 billion more on military Some senior officials resisted the decision to approve the major military spending increase, sources say.

Oh, sure, we could fund health care, dental & vision for us all with that amount, who’s asking? Call me, I have thoughts about how to keep America safe! (from misery)
