Whatever Brooke Rollins is on is probably illegal in all 50 states.

Hang those albatrosses around Stefanik's lying neck!

The smarmy lying worm refuses to even put up a plaque honoring Capitol Police who protected Congress and the capitol on Jan 6!

MAGAt fascists are *NOT* America. They are in fact deeply UN-American... so if you want to call it the "Hate MAGA Rally" it would be almost honest, mini-MAGA-Mikey. And re: MAGA in your nickname: Yeah, we hate you especially.

No one who publicly brags about sharing his porn usage stats with his son has any sense at all of how creepy and unbelievable he is...

Nixon's AG went to prison. 🤞Here's hoping that bit of history repeats itself, but we can skip the pres-gets-pardoned-by-successor part...

Rick, I've ALWAYS enjoyed the content you produce, and have always thought you'd be a good guy in person. This just offers me evidence I was right about you all along! Thanks for using your platform for good.

Ah, I got your statement turned around a bit... I thought you were saying Vance would fire the cabinet as retribution for voting Frump out rather than because they're incompetent chucklefucks who might not support him the same way.

David @dkboyd.bsky.social · 23h

Well, Vance wants NOTHING more than to be POTUS, but I assume he'd prefer it to seem like natural causes in hopes of avoiding the anger of their mob.

WON'T be done. There's ample evidence of his problems, but he's selected fawning sycophants who'll follow him right to the end, assuming that if they don't all hang together, they'll eventually be hanged separately.

Re: the failed part: Only failed inasmuch as they're not perfect likenesses. 3 of the 4 look significantly less creepy than Farenthold, and the 4th is not MORE creepy that Mr. Pajama Party.

I wonder if they're using botox to fight the droop...

Wait aren't the MAGAts the ones still whinging about Dumb Donnie getting his accounts suspended for fomenting insurrection?

Re: Italy: We're headed out on a house-hunting trip next week. Looking mainly at a town around 15k ppl with a train station, where I spent a semester as an undergrad. I was back there for a week earlier this year and it feels like a place where I belong.

25th Amendment time.

I'll take "Things that never happened" for $1000, Alex.

I suspect that, like most rich "cons", Jones doesn't have nearly as much money in reality as on paper. There probably just isn't enough to get them all that was awarded, but absolutely ruining Jones is at least a modicum of justice.

David @dkboyd.bsky.social · 1d

It absolutely would, but IMHO the main thing is that the families get all the money he has, including what he's tried to shield. Homes, cars, royalties, retirement accounts.... EVERYTHING.

David @dkboyd.bsky.social · 1d

It's reported that you can also SMELL his stupidity.

If Trump illegally discriminates against NYC, all of New York State should withhold tax revenue owed the Feds. We'll see which way THAT balances out.

Pettyman McCankles weeps for the treatment of his soulless lackey...

David @dkboyd.bsky.social · 1d

which was a great experience, and if the pull of family in the US had been less than it was, I would've stayed. Years later, I'm working on correcting that! E sì, parlo abbastanza bene l'italiano. It does make the idea less intimidating.

I do understand that the language part is a barrier for many Americans... The English-speaking megacity is one of the most expensive in the world. Learning a language is good for the brain. IMHO learning a culture is good for the soul. In a previous life I had the chance to live and work in Italy
