Complying did not save the Jews of Germany or Poland, and complying will not save you.

As “Shrinking Trump” reminds us, this is the *best* Trump we will ever see. Psychopathology and dementia both progress and don’t reverse. He will only worsen.

I hope you are right.

I’ve wondered about this. His ambassador nominations are as preposterous as his cabinet; what would happen if Guilfoyle went to Syntagma to present her credentials and the Greek government simply said no— send us a real diplomat, not a used-up girlfriend. Does anyone know?

Nope. No high school that didn’t have bars on the windows was ever this bad.

Heading towards? That ship has sailed, David. I lived through watergate, and it was an episcopal martini compared to this.

Important and correct. To those who say the USA isn’t finished, but can recover from this catastrophe, I say: look at 1858– it took a civil war w 600k dead. Look at Germany 1934— it took utter destruction and a Marshall plan to make it recover.

One shameless crank grifter embracing another. Oz crawled up the CT surgery pole by kissing Gerry Lemole’s ass (and daughter) at temple. He was a so so cardiac surgeon but what the Brit’s call a “thruster.” Because of his tyrannical father (familiar?) He just went after the money..

RFK has NO seat at the table of science. His positions aren’t “controversial”; they are wrong, dangerous, and stupid. Don’t argue with him, or flat-earthers, or holocaust deniers. Their “positions” don’t merit response.

Funny how the internet doesn't conveniently forget things...

He originally intended to be come a lawyer. He defended Mariupol. Survived Russian captivity. Recovered in Azov. Died defending his country. Heroim Slava.

Sviatohirsk pizza shop, one year ago today. The Russians got done with Sviatohirsk in February 2022 and it hasn't recovered. Russkiy Mir.

Correct. The Rs have 4 years to re-jigger gerrymanders, suppression, intimidation, the media, and the judiciary to render the 2028 'elections' Orban-style exercises. The 'moral arc of the universe' bends towards chaos, not justice.

August 28, 1963, Washington, D. C. I had a Contax IIa, a couple of rolls of film, and a dream.
