Trump’s legal fees slush fund is drying up

The Save America PAC is $500,000 in the red according to federal filings — and owes three times as much to Trump’s many, many lawyers.

All we are saying is….

Is give bees a chance….

If this is how the ultimate result plays out, it will be a late night next Tuesday. We’ll have a red mirage again as the rurals come in early and then wait until probably 11pm to get substantial returns from NOVA.

Is Trump OK? Experts warn of ‘narcissism’ and ‘insecurity’ after vulgar outbursts Concern over Trump’s mental fitness has reached new heights amid the war in Iran, with his critics loudly calling to invoke the 25th Amendment, reports Rhian Lubin

Decorated retired Army Colonel and psychiatrist Dr. @geoffreygrammer.bsky.social was interviewed for this excellent piece on the dangerous mental disorders of Trump's that puts the world in danger. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

why would people have "suddenly switched" to thinking the economy wasn't working for them in 2021?

Opinion | The Trump Administration Is in a Psychotic State

And the NYT agrees! I know we fail and rant at the paper but I have been reading it everyday for the last forty years. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/10/o...

Only a historian here but to imagine yourself as Jesus is classic psychotic behavior not to mention blasphemy and to attack the Pope in this unhinged manner is surely an indication of some sort of mental illness.

Image of Trump as Jesus healing man is too much for evangelicals Trump erased the line between savior and president last Sunday by posting an AI-generated image of himself as Christ healing a bedridden man

Doug Wilson says Trump needs to do better after AI Jesus debacle EXCLUSIVE — War Secretary Pete Hegseth's pastor, Doug Wilson, believes President Donald Trump needs "more orthodox pastoral guidance."

Via the Examiner: Pastor Doug Wilson, who oversees the worship service attended by Pete Hegseth, rejects Trump's claim that "fake news" perpetuated the idea that the image POTUS shared resembled Jesus.

"This was not manufactured by the press," Wilson said. www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/white-h...

From @demfromct.bsky.social www.dailykos.com/stories/2026...

Obama's JCPOA is looking wiser and wiser each day.

Thanks, Obama.

Remember when Trump threatened to wipe out a whole civilization? And then backed out of that and talked about forming a deal with Iran? And then dropped that and went to a UFC fight as negotiations fell apart? And then unveiled a triumphal arch and a photo of himself as Jesus?

That was this week.

Q: Did you post that picture of yourself depicted as Jesus Christ?

TRUMP: I did post it and I thought it was me as a doctor and had to do Red Cross. Only the fake news could come up with that one.

If I see it in both I post the blooskee version (sen Kennedy pronounces it that way)

Alas sometimes twitter is the only place you can find those voices

Lots of times the posts/embeds are from Twitter and occasionally Bluesky

They are illustrative of something or wouldn’t be there and the assumption is you can read as is w/o clicking it going to the site

When it’s a thread I post the thread reader equivalent so you don’t have to go to twitter

Rothman deserves what he got

Lina Khan helped Joe Biden set this up, but he never pushed it hard to take credit for it.

Now, with Khan working for Mamdani, he's doing it for NYC residents. And actually telling them he's doing it.

Good policies aren't good politics unless you take credit constantly for them.

New — I wrote about the terror and loss of the last few days, mostly so we don’t forget.
