Because I've been talking about how Trump spends his time (and forgot golf), linking @pbump.com's tracker. In recent weeks Trump had his 365th day of golf across the two terms.

This is glaringly obvious to everyone except for the faces of corporate media, who desperately want to walk a red carpet
WaPo takes note of Trump’s “oscillating claims” about the war, but avoids the obvious conclusions — that Trump is deranged, that he is unfit, and that he shouldn’t be in charge. This is an example of the normalization of the dangerously abnormal. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
Washington can only pay attention to a scandal or two at a time, which means in the Trump age there are all sorts of should-be-big-deal scandals that don’t get the oxygen or media focus that they should.
I'll bet you've missed at least three of these: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/five-trump...
The Trump administration asserts a nearly 50-year-old law requiring the preservation of presidential records is unconstitutional. Historians warn important papers could be destroyed. n.pr/4sIYv9O
Trump “even mused he should award himself the nation’s highest military honor, the Medal of Honor.”
And that’s not even the craziest part of this excellent WSJ story about the paranoia and chaos that overshadow the White House right now.

Barack Obama and Zohran Mamdani sing ‘Wheels on the Bus’ to kids in NYC
Congrats on “opening” a strait that was open six weeks ago, and all it cost was at least 13 dead service members, thousands of dead Iranian civilians, tens of billions in taxpayer dollars, our loss in global standing, and the Iranian regime’s increase in power. Phenomenal work.
Heartbreaking description of the pointless, thoughtless damage being done to the Kennedy Center. It was such an important part of life in Washington, and is now being destroyed for no reason

However you feel about Mamdani - and to be clear, I love him - what he’s managed to do across policy, messaging, and execution should be a blueprint. Making real change while making jokes about Mario Kart. Just really good - and it’s sad that it’s so different to everyone else.
France passed a law requiring solar panels on every parking lot with more than 80 spaces.
Equals 10 nuclear reactors
Reduces heat island, shades cars
The US -- 800 million parking spaces. Most of them are uncovered asphalt sitting in direct sunlight.
Why aren't we doing this?
This is great!

Oh sorry, so religion and politics should be separate? Is that what you're saying? bsky.app/profile/atru...
…and not in a good way.
The soulless, sociopathic orange cunt stands in his suit looking bored and devoid of intelligent thought whilst an Oval Office guest is collapsed on the ground behind him. Fellow guests, able to demonstrate more compassion than the pedo protector has ever mustered in his entire miserable existence, are helping the collapsed man. The photo captures the insipid, disdain Trump holds for any other human being not permanently kissing his fat, wrinkly ass. At least today is one day closer to his death.
Congratulations to photographer Andrew Harnik who has won the White House Correspondents’ Association award for presidential news coverage with one of the greatest Oval Office photos ever captured.
Gregg Phillips, the high-ranking FEMA official who said he teleported to a Waffle House has a history of making supernatural claims we found in his podcasts: a dead girlfriend who lifted his car off the road to avoid a crash, Satan encountering him on a hike, etc.

A worker died at an Amazon warehouse in Oregon last week.
For more than an hour, workers were instructed to continue working as the man lay dead.
One worker wanted to help, but a manager told them to “Just turn around and not look. Let’s get back to work," according to @thewesternedge.bsky.social.

If evangelicals think Pope Leo is too”woke” just wait until
they hear about this fellow called Jesus.
Why can't we have nice things?
J.D. Vance needs to visit Israel and Russia on successive days…
This is the culmination of SIXTEEN YEARS of dogged work by everyday Hungarians.
You think that felt hopeless sometimes? I'm sure it did.
👏 Don't 👏 give 👏 up 👏
The Hungarian people wisely refused to listen to these grifting scumbags.
