Sitting pitty

My girl sits like that too. It cracks me up.

I did not know that. Wow.

Hillary should send an email to Kash’s account so that the press will cover the story. 🧠💫

If a secdef violating the 14th amendment rights of US servicemembers by denying promotions based on race isn’t impeachable then I don’t see what is. The man would rather the military be racist than effective.

Less crustaceous period

I am. It’s been about a year since I’ve been to one.

Handing SSA data to election deniers seems like more than a Hatch Act violation

The White Civility Council As the nation reckons with the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, there has been a notable trend from mainstream pundits and press outlets. They have tended to downplay or outright i...

Re-upping this piece I wrote about them:

My dedication to speak up for the importance of protecting academic freedom and higher education put a target on my back. Texas A&M has lost control of their narrative that they’re balancing education by censoring topics on race and gender. Now they are punishing the messengers. I’m one of them.

Their son’s life was valued at two $500 donations. Speechless. That’s rubbing more salt in the wounds.

Nor regime change

Every. Damn. Time.

The Conservative Justices Have So Many Ideas For How to Kill the Voting Rights Act The Republican justices already know where they’re going. They just have to figure out which route they’re going to take to get there.

my main takeaways from listening to the Supreme Court oral argument today are

Not even a wee bit.

This dynamic of Young Republicans staking out positions far to the right of older, more "normie" Republicans has been a feature of the US conservative movement since the 1960s. Over time those further right elements just got incorporated into the mainstream. bsky.app/profile/seth...

Federal Judges, Warning of ‘Judicial Crisis,’ Fault Supreme Court’s Emergency Orders

“More than three dozen federal judges have told The New York Times that the Supreme Court’s flurry of brief, opaque emergency orders in cases related to the Trump administration have left them confused about how to proceed in those matters and are hurting the judiciary’s image with the public.”

I’ve been saying that since forever.

Turkey’s Erdogan Says Halkbank US Case to End After Trump Talks Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said state lender Halkbank’s legal case in the US is due to be resolved following recent talks with President Donald Trump, prompting bank shares to rise.

In case anyone missed this

Erdoğa said that Trump ended Halkbank’s criminal case after talks w him. He said that Trump told him “The Halkbank problem is finished for us.”

Halkbank was helping Iran evade taxes and launder billions.

Qatar and now this. The corruption is off the charts

Vividly

I just spit out a kernel of caramel popcorn. 😂

My first thought too. 😂

As @propublica.org reported, "at least three of Trump’s Cabinet members call multiple homes their primary residences on mortgages."

No indictments for them, because this is how a fascist regime works. "For my friends, everything; for my enemies, the law."

Is there a better indication of how superficial and unhelpful mainstream media has become than that they are cutely musing about whether the domestic terrorist who changed "The Department of Defense" to "The Department of War" will get a Nobel Peace Prize—instead of reporting the fascism/terrorism.
