89 candles would have set off the sprinklers, so we settled for one — and one perfect slice of cake (with @bradtakei.bsky.social on ice cream duty). Thank you to every friend, fan, and fellow traveler who has made these 89 years such a joyous voyage.

Warren: "Why try to end independence of the Fed? Bc Trump's economic failures are causing him political problems, he wants the Fed to artificially juice the economy Having a sock puppet in charge of the Fed would also give the president access to the Fed's powerful authorities to enrich himself"

Lets go Virginia!!! Vote Yes on Redistricting!!! Republicans have been quick to chastise Dems for this but were quiet as church mice when texas did this...
Donald started this, let's make him regret ever starting a fight and not expecting the people to fight back!

He’s a complete moron.

He still hasn’t “won” Iran.

Someone give Pawpaw his meds and put him back to sleep.

"We didn't start this fight, but I'm saying to Virginia, we need to finish it." Quote from VA Del. Delores McQuinn

Virginians: Today's the last day to vote on an important redistricting measure.

I hope you'll vote YES—for Virginia, and for the entire country.

You have a chance to help level the playing field as Republicans seek an unfair advantage in Congress. Please take it. Get more info: IWillVote.com/VA

Wild viral video shows dog taking a poo on Trump's Hollywood star Trump's star has been vandalized several times since he first ran for president in 2016

"For the first time in history, a dog has been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize," tweeted Morgan J. Freeman, an anti-Trump influencer who is not related to the actor. The video showed a dog on a leash crouching over Trump's star before defecating on it.

Let’s give a shoutout to the brave boom operator heroically recording Trump loading his diaper.

It'd be a big story only if he tripped and fell on his face. Then the Grim Reaper collected him afterwards.

Trump: "I have to be careful because if I do trip or fall, it's gonna be the biggest story. That's why when I get out of those planes, I walk nice and slowly. I'm not looking to set any speed records."

If your commander-in-chief is being excluded from military operations (coz he’s a lunatic) and blocked from accessing the nuclear codes (coz he’s a lunatic), you’re overdue for a new commander-in-chief.

How do you get fired from the Trump administration for having an affair with a subordinate and drinking on the job? We’ll have to ask Lori Chavez-DeRemer, because I thought it was a requirement.

Trump just issued a last-minute warning to Virginians that if they vote YES on the redistricting referendum tomorrow, he will lose power:

“If the Democrats get additional seats, they’re going to be making changes at the federal level.”

This is what everyone needs to do. Not listen to them and switch them off and take away their power. It took long enough, but people are starting to wake up. They need to join the rest of us who are sane and fight back.

Trump’s inflation, the Iran war, plus strong Democratic recruits, are putting red-state Senate seats in play. Polls show Democrats tied or leading in four GOP-held seats: Maine, North Carolina, Ohio and Alaska, with Iowa and Texas cracking too. (NYT)

Who else agrees Biden was—without a doubt—a better president than Trump could ever be? #VoteYesVirginia

As Trump’s lies get more egregious (and repetitive) I have at least noticed fewer mouth-breathing bootlickers willing to defend him in my comments.

And the administration is leaking about how he’s hurting negotiations and how they’re keeping him on the sidelines.

I’ll call that progress.
