🎶 “Let’s have a conclave” 🎶

Our man is still alive! He just turned 97, according to Wikipedia. I love that he granted 2 Chainz permission to sample "Dope Peddler" in 2012.

Nah...too big for his hands...

*Sigh* Yes, we have Argue o' Clock at our house, too. I feel your pain, truly.

Bret Stephens is a complete, limp, dripping, mildew-speckled waste of print.

He posted on Bluesky pretty much saying he would vote for it.

I'm counting the days until primary season, though it's a while coming.

I think the answer is everyone and no one.

Some Democrats are so over to the right that they're sitting in McConnell's lap, but OK...

Beat me to it. Since I've stopped reading the NYT and haven't seen a Brett Stephens column, I've been slamming my fingers in a drawer every few days for a similar effect.

I noticed today that many of my neighbors took down their Trump flags and signs this week. Did something happen?

Seriously, isn't all this cause to declare Trump incompetent? Something, something, 25th amendment?

Not that Vance is much better, but one removal would be a start.

Finally, some good f#cking news...

Though, could we please stop posting articles from the NYT, that milquetoast, flaccid pub that hides in a corner at every opportunity? I'm sure AP or Reuters covered this, too, and without a pay wall.

Bernie has stamina that I can't even comprehend--imagine questioning these clearly incompetent candidates day after day, knowing you've been warning people and party for *years* that this was coming, and now having a front row seat to this fiasco.

Respect.

Considering the red-state push to lower minimum working ages, I'd say that's a "yes."

*shutter*

She wasn't very popular with the rank and file--her lack of response with Fouled Anchor and other policies didn't make her the worst commandant ever, but she wasn't the best, either.

I'm sure Trump didn't know any of this and fired her for being female. Her replacement will probably be vile.

This is untimely, unless this is the one government function that can happen over a weekend...

That's a chance I'd be willing to take. I'd listen to whining all day in exchange for the ultimate socialist utopia. Just sayin'.

I completely understand this will be a s#itshow, and I did not vote for the Cheeto. I'm just saying that I believe this country needs substantial change, and the current Democrats are not pushing for what we need hard enough and what people want.

I can't speak for everyone, and I voted for all Democrats, but I wasn't enthused about it at all. Harris and Biden were for the status quo, which I don't want! And many people don't, either. I want my children to live better than me, and while the GOP isn't the answer, neither is what we have now.

It should have been him.

If it were me, I'd take that money (up front, of course) and bring every rainbow flag, glitter bomb, Tom of Finland background dancer available in a sailor suit I could find. It. Could. Be. Glorious. if they have the courage to do it.

I'm hoping this is subtle (or, not subtle) shade being thrown and they are not only performing "YMCA" at his inauguration but will be performing in all their glory and queer majesty they can muster.

I never buy biographies, but I would buy two of his, just because.

I don't think anyone with a brain cell is blaming Mr. Smith for anything. He's a gods-damned hero who was a true civil servant trying to do his job.

Garland, on the other hand...

Oh f#ck off NYT Pitchbot she did not say that
