Gosh darn it- this is the same problem I saw with Crockett and Talarico. An embarrassment of riches but only one can go. On paper and in their deeds, Cooney and Troye are individually top shelf candidates. But, Virginians have to choose one. Ugh…

I’m of a mind to let him focus on the ballroom and trying to stick his name on venerated places if it means it distracts him from continuing to wreck our geopolitical standing and growing domestic issues.

“Know your audience” has never been more alarmingly exemplified.

Let’s stop for a moment and think upon the insanity of this. Top brass are essentially telegraphing 25th Amendment vibes…

Double down. Never admit wrongdoing. Lie.

That the U.S. citizenry have been hourly(?!) exposed to this moral toxicity has *normalized abhorrent behaviors* within the MAGA cult and- to a creeping degree- the overall electorate.

Where is the style & decorum icon, Vance, to berate Rogan for not wearing a suit?

I’m sure we will see a tweet publicly excoriating Joe aaaaany moment now.

Sweet Jeebus- Rogan cannot reveal himself to be more selfishly and shamelessly opportunistic…

Holy cow. I was literally mulling over our national demise earlier this morning and pointed to SCOTUS’ inability to be held to account w/o knowing of this latest “ruling”.

And, on cue…

Here’s why I must admit- in my gut- that we are doomed as a nation.

Thomas and Alito were found to be taking large monies from wealthy donors and not disclosing them. Full stop. Period.

And… nothing. happened.

In even a barely functioning democratic nation of laws, they would have been removed…

Citing 'Two Corinthians,' Trump Struggles To Make The Sale To Evangelicals Donald Trump went to Liberty University, a Christian conservative school, in hopes of winning over the faithful. He stumbled and likely didn't change Ted Cruz's advantage with the group.

That’s the tragic kick in the teeth. Recall that we have (hourly?!) witnessed and been trained to NEVER admit fault or wrongdoing for ten. long. years.

They will stay aboard the burning ship and still watch for any sign of land before they admit a calamity of their own making…

Agreed. In the end, and despite the likely veto, this could have been a MAGA-R off-ramp to show national unity to a gangster madman. But, what am I saying?! They are literally shielding child sex predators from accountability. What’s a looming apocalyptic turmoil for them to ignore?

The first pic was a loyalty test and a “flood the zone” post, everyone. FOTUS or Christ. Now, breathlessly talk about it; all while Russ, Jared, Todd, and the rest of the grifters and true believers continue to erode the nation of laws and decency we were striving to be…

Can’t think of a passed day whereby the FOTUS (Administration) has not: outright defied the Constitution & the courts; brought misery upon so many with vile racist/misogynistic/xenophobic actions; reduced a functioning government to ashes; and, *openly* enriched itself…

But, Jeebus meme hurt most?

I believe it’s been established that advanced countries experience declining birth rates.

But let me guess- does he think if you dumb down the populace by systematically destroying institutions of learning (overarching Project 2025 goal), well… that’s one way to raise birth rates?

Ghoulish…

Sure as shit looks that the international community, once afraid of an almighty U.S. collapsing, is willing to let us shrivel on the geopolitical vine and carry on without us.

According to news *outside* of the U.S., industrialized Sino, Euro, and Middle Powers are negotiating new deals without us…

I can spitball two other modern instances whereby the 25th could have been invoked- Watergate’s aftermath (Nixon literally losing it) and Jan. 6th (a literally *FOTUS directed insurrection)…

How do these supposedly financial gurus- with a straight and loud voice- memory hole what transpired in 2019-2021? Like huh?! From “in the know” to “in the tank”.

In 2024, the Economist summed up our Covid recovery with one cover.

imo- U.S. short term thinking will be our end…
