is it a good show?

This needs to be the Democratic message.

Helping incumbents = functioning as intended

It's like saying the engine was helping the car drive down the road.

They are pre-Enlightenment, trying to undo the Reformation, they reject Voltaire and Locke.

He posed with the Bible in front of a church as the tear gas cleared after ordering a peaceful to be violently suppressed and even that was only an act frustration after he ordered the protesters to be shot and the military leader said no and then he said "how about just in the legs?"

Oh wow. That surprises me. We also get a good frost in late May most years.
I have a lot of leeks right now from over the winter and if I had planted, over winter spinach would be good now.
I'm just now sprouting lettuce and peas which represents the earliest garden items.

Exactly.
Whatever Morons and Liars say it's not news.

In the chilly PNW , I don't plant them until June.
Those and cucumbers a are the last to go in.

He literally said that liberals are trying to kill him and they are the biggest danger to our country.
He's completely unhinged and detached from reality.

You're idea wishes away the Constitution. Hard to be optimistic about that.

I'm sure nobody ever does, so it leaves me in good company.

But you knew I wasn't challenging you, Right?

That's the point.

But I've still got 2 people jumping down my throat on this beautiful Sunday morning in spring.

Can't win with some people. 🤪

That's a good point.

(I was trying to lead with a compliment to avoid an argument.

I've learned when you are talking to academics on Bsky, it's helpful to flatter them when asking for more information.)

Nobody wants to listen to left wing media.
Progressives like poking people in the eye with sharp sticks too much.

I suspect when he was out of office his biggest regret was that he didn't build a bunch of stuff and redecorate the WH (and start a war with Iran).

That's like when I am doing 1st grade recess and I say "Hey Johnny, come over here" and he says "I didn't throw dirt in her eyes".

There is not.

Interesting way to describe it.
Why do you think black voters started switching parties in the 1930's?

The Supreme Court's going to stay in conservative rule for the rest of our lives. That battle happened in 2016 and we lost.

Ok, 90 years ago.

I have a delicate question and I’ll delete if inappropriate, but I’m curious why they haven’t trotted out the two airmen shot down in Iran and rescued two weeks ago. Isn’t it standard operating procedure to do a victory lap with the president? Are they CIA and have to be kept anonymous?

They did that with the California aqueduct system.
It's been problematic and very very controversial.
They pull water from the Owens valley (hence Save Mono Lake) and the Colorado River.
In both cases It's been successful but also a catastrophy.

The funny thing about Rum Raisin is that they used to put raisins in liquor in order to strain out the impurities.
So whoever was eating those was getting nasty.

First grade strawberry project.
