A fair number of people who have no posts or only a few reposts have followed me. I like to follow folks back, but not when they have nothing to say for themselves. And why should I?

@sludge.bsky.social Today's story on how Dems use spammy tactics on ActBlue describes phone 3x and 4x matching funds with no transparance. Then Sludge asks for donations, promising a 16x (!) match. Show us where that money comes from.

The Democrats Won’t Stop Spamming

Despite ActBlue’s updated policies banning fake matches and deadlines, Democratic Party groups are continuing to spam supporters with messages designed to trick them into giving money.

Does anyone expect Conde Naste to do something like this with The New Yorker next?

Look at a representative sample of Bluesky users who wanted to chat with me. Every one a bot.

You got it. But you didn't include the Claremont Institute.

That's good. The Pentagon needs to duck and cover.

Unfortunately, pols are still asking for hopes and prayers, blissfully unaware of what clueless tools they are.

I assume you'll responsibly follow up and keep us briefed.

Or trust but verify.

It's at times like this I'm actually grateful to be hard of hearing.

Remember Mitch McConnell saying his job was to make sure Obama doesn't succeed? Well, I hope Mamdani is prepared for a lot more of that. Team Privilege will be out to get him. The people of NY will be their victims.

WhoTF are you people and who is paying you to poison young minds with false associations and half-truths?

Trump's deportations are mostly red meat tossed to his followers. The point is not to get rid of swarthy foreigners, it's to construct a police state to deploy against his critics, and it's going quite well.

Mamdani's resume isn't a problem. Andrew Cuomo has a problem: Andrew Cuomo.

Tell Spotify you're blocking their ads and if they don't pull ICE ads you're gone.

So it's a bad thing if MAGAs come out of the woods and vote for Platner, bc they think he's one of them or at least resonates? What other Dem candidate in ME is going to get those votes? They could make a difference. And it won't turn Platner into a MAGA bigot.

If states want to force women to watch ultrasounds before receiving an abortion, then states SHOULD force gun nuts to watch videos of kids being murdered in schools before buying firearms.

In any event, Mike Johnson has said the Senate's tariff bill won't reach the House floor. Or if it does, it will keep on going down.

Charles is stripping Andrews titles due to his involvement with Epstein. Does that mean we can strip Trump of his title?

King Charles III strips Prince Andrew of titles, evicts him from royal residence over Epstein ties

Effective immediately, Andrew will be known as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor and not as a prince, and he will move from his Royal Lodge residence into “private accommodation.”
