Luke Skywalker is correct!

His military flyover of the Epstein Survivor's Press Conference was like when a little kid puts their fingers in their ears, saying "Nyah, nyah, nyah I can't hear you!"!
Pathetic, hugely expensive & hilariously ineffective.

This is a really interesting and important piece, but my key takeaway is that us 37 year olds still get to count as "young"

Greg Sargent @gregsargent.bsky.social · Jul 15

Time to start paying attention to Florida attorney general James Uthmeier, the brains behind Alligator Auschwitz. He's only 37 and is a Florida version of Stephen Miller. He's the future of MAGA.

My new piece on his sudden rise and what it means:

So Trump is in effect admitting he’s a liar. Oopsie!

By trying to bully Walmart, Trump gives away the game on his tariffs agenda

If Trump were right about foreign countries paying tariffs, why is he demanding that Walmart simply “eat the tariffs”? Because he’s wrong about the basics.

The state of Georgia is keeping a deceased Black woman’s corpse hooked up to machines against her family’s wishes because she was 9 weeks pregnant and they cannot let them shut off the machines b/c it violates their anti-abortion laws

“ITS TORTURE,” says her family

Family says woman declared brain dead but her pregnancy continues under state law

Adriana Smith's been on life support 90+ days with weeks to go in her pregnancy. Her family questions Georgia’s heartbeat law — and why they had no say in her care.

Sen. Fetterman recently flew into a rage at a meeting with representatives from a teachers union. The senator appeared consumed with paranoia and inconsolable.

Attendees of the meeting watched in shock as Fetterman slammed his hands down on a desk and ranted, repeatedly…

I have a massive trade deficit with Amazon: I send them money and they send me goods I need/want, but Amazon never buys stuff from me! That would be a problem, if I were an idiot.

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · May 8

REPORTER: But we're seeing as a result that ports here in the US, the traffic has really slowed and now thousands of dockworkers are truck drivers are worried about their jobs

TRUMP: That means we lose less money ... when you say it slowed down, that's a good thing, not a bad thing

This is the ridiculous points that they’re trying to make now? With the president who goes to the bathroom on a golden toilet and brags about Gold albeit fake in his office.

Great news here.

Let this be a lesson for all business leaders.

Stay the fuck out of politics. It hurts you, it hurts your brand, it hurts the country.

Keep government and business separate.

Hot mess we are in here!

Mueller, She Wrote @muellershewrote.com · Apr 30

These fired federal workers were stewards of tax payer dollars. That’s why firing 121,000 of them has caused government spending to go UP. Federal employees save more money than they cost. For example, the VA paid me $120K a year and I saved them $60M a year.

Christopher Webb @cwebbonline.com · Apr 29

Trump’s federal layoffs in just 100 days — and that doesn’t even count the folks pushed out quietly with admin leave, early retirement, or “voluntary” buyouts.
