as unlikely as it may seem, somehow the Shitwit Brigade of Witkoff, Kushner and Couchfuck McGee were actually making headway — but then Preznit Fuckwit started posting once again about how he was going to bomb the shit out of Iran if they didn’t dance to his tune, at which point the Iranian negotiating team was all ‘why the fuck are we even talking to you?’

so, Donny's ace team of parking lot negotiators were actually close to a deal with Iran, when Donny blew it all up by tweeting infantile threats. awesome job, you fucking idiot. take a victory lap. I mock all that shit in today's post. thank you for your attention to it. link is here: bit.ly/3QkGa5v

You don’t have to live in California to have a stake in its leadership. A GOP Gov would be disastrous for the rest of us, and if R’s take the top 2 spots in the Primary, that will guarantee a GOP win. Want to help? Follow and boost @xavierbecerra.bsky.social to ensure we have a Dem in the General.

In California, we’ll continue to provide health care for our people.

We’re not backing down in the face of Donald Trump’s massive cuts to Medi-Cal.

Well, at least the BBC is covering this.

April 20, 2026 Late Saturday evening, Josh Dawsey and Annie Linskey of the Wall Street Journal reported that Trump was so unstable and angry after learning on April 3 that Iranians had shot down an American jet that...

This is a snapshot of the failure of MSM and the concomitant ignorance within the American electorate about what is happening in and to their country.

I don’t know what happened, but I bet this eagle is about to speak with a manager…

This should be the official portrait in the Whitehouse!

Barry McCaffrey: Trump muses on awarding himself the Medal of Honor. A truly vile insult to the US Armed Forces.

📌MEDIA: Stop calling Jared Kushner a "high-level negotiator." He's a damn thief operating in his repulsive family's best interests not ours.

The guy who claims to be a Catholic, the guy who wants us to believe he drips with piety – not only thinks he somehow has a right to tell the Pope what to do – but he also believes it's totally okay to work for a guy who thinks he's Jesus while threatening nuclear annihilation and genocide. Got it.

Trump lawyer from effort to overturn 2020 election to oversee probe of ex-CIA director, DOJ official says Joseph DiGenova, a conservative attorney, is being tapped by the U.S. Justice Department to lead an ongoing criminal investigation into former CIA Director John Brennan.

“For my friends everything; for my enemies the law.”

DOJ has become an instrument of authoritarianism. No more laments for what it was; or talk of “abuses”; or wishful thinking about how they can’t get away with it. They can, if not confronted across the board.

This war is so damn confusing. It’s why we shouldn’t let drunks and dementia patients run it.

In the same manifesto, Palantir's owners argued that we need a national military draft, that soft power is over, and that we were too hard on Germany and Japan after World War II. I don't think that company should be allowed to exist anymore.

Can't stress enough how dangerous Palantir is to democracy!

“It was the worst of times and it was the worst of times…”

Ah hell. Even I would smash a statue of Jesus...or any other religious figure! 😂 The IDF has the added element of being a terrorist organization.

Glad to know Mikel Johnson offered thoughts and prayers. Fuck the bastard.
