Joe Ceballos, a Kansas mayor, was convicted of voting several times despite being a permanent resident, not a citizen. He plead guilty of misdmeanors for not realizing residency did not allow voting. When the judge gave him a suspended sentence, his politically Red town cheered.
Ironic that Trump has pardoned large numbers of convicted fraudsters while at the same time has up-ended taxpayer social services because he says they encourage fraud.
Trump claims that wind power installations off the east coast should not be put in because they are harmful to whales. Trump claims that whale protection should not be done because it harms the oil and gas industry. Quite a contradiction.
Trump claims Pope Leo is "soft on crime". Huh???? Who's soft on crime? Trump is. He's pardoned a legion of convicted criminals and himself has been convicted of multiple felonies.
The recent AP/Norc poll shows only 1/3 of Americans think Trump's doing well on the economy. And though they don't want Iran to have a nuclear weapon, almost 70% don't want oil and gas prices to rise. Helping Israel against Iran or making Iran have a government friendlier to the US aren't priorities
Allegedly tRump tried to grab the nuclear codes in a White House meltdown—only for the Joint Chiefs chairman to stand up and say “No.” Apparently, even the military knows this unhinged man is too dangerous for the football. How much longer can America risk it?

This is what a rigged system looks like.
Blowing up a boat in the water because you suspect but have no proof it's trafficking drugs? That's a war crime. And if it was trafficking drugs, blowing those on it would not be a sentence in any US law. Hegseth et al. are going to meet with legal retribution as soon as Trump's out of office.
NEW: the #AlabamaPenis has been freed!
Not surprised that Pakistan has furthered the diplomatic exchange between US and Iran. I remember well Syed Amjad Ali, the late Permanent Representative to the UN from Pakistan. In his obituary, NYT wrote, "He was among those who worked to gain Pakistan a place of recognition in world affairs"
Iran war: Hegseth reads fake Bible verse from Pulp Fiction during Pentagon sermon - www.middleeasteye.net/news/hegseth-reads-fake-...
I guess actually reading scripture is heavy lifting for Hegseth the Dope.
It seems he had road rage for a perceived car cutting him off and decided to point his gun to put the fear in the cutter off. Now he needs to look out!
First ever criminal charges against ICE agents for pulling a gun on two people in a car during a road rage incident. They’re being charged with 2nd degree assault.
Dear Media: it is unpatriotic and un-American to point out that the extremely pious secretary of defense prayed a fake prayer from Pulp Fiction. Do better.
Grateful to Mayor Mamdani & DCWP Commissioner Sam Levine for aggressively enforcing it to protect workers.
(Still not sure about talking with my mouth full, even about workers’ rights) (2/2)
Before this spring, I had never heard of a "mukbang.”
But I did know about NYC’s Fair Workweek law to stop abusive scheduling by fast-food and retail corporations — because I authored it. (1/2)
True story. One night @djwickstrom.bsky.social and I were checking out our groceries. Right when we were about to pay the computer rebooted and we had to rescan. But suddenly our total was nearing $30. Fuck dynamic pricing!!!!
“Pete Hegseth quotes fake Bible verse found in Pulp Fiction during Pentagon prayer”
A cursèd headline for a cursèd timeline.
There's one that is about 5 feet high in a museum in Belem, Brazil.

Not scary Linda.
Call it a VIP club charge and they’ll line up to pay it.
Premier Wab Kinew and I agree that building a strong Canadian economy means building big and building fast.
The new Canada–Manitoba Co-operation Agreement will get big projects like the Port of Churchill Plus built faster.

A young Chinese man from Sichuan, China, went to "Skid Row" in Los Angeles to feed homeless Americans. And guess what American cops did?! They showed up and arrested him! For feeding the homeless!! Land of the free, looool.
