Someday soon, they're going to ask Mike Johnson who the Speaker of the House is, and he's going to say "I don't know."

More than once, I have actually had someone point at me and say "Do you know that you're bleeding?"

IDK if that makes me a tough guy, but I wouldn't be caught dead whining about getting hit with a sandwich like this tactical armor wearing drama queen with a badge.

So what you're saying is that Johnson has never canoodled with his wife. 😉

We’re going to have to get used to this. 2026 and 2028 are likely to look very similar.

No matter what side of the aisle you’re on, attempts to prevent US citizens from voting should be a red line for you.

We can’t allow terroristic threats to keep us from the polls.

Kyle Griffin @kylegriffin1.bsky.social · 10h

Breaking from NJ AG Platkin:

"Early this morning, law enforcement responded to threats that were received by email involving certain polling places in Bergen, Essex, Mercer, Middlesex, Monmouth, Ocean, and Passaic Counties. Law enforcement … have worked swiftly to secure these polling locations."

Trump said he’d be “the jobs president.” Turns out he meant job cuts. Nearly a million Americans out of work, and he’s bragging about marble bathrooms and his gilded ballroom.

I wonder how many DOGE and Project 2025 related terminations are included in these numbers? This administration has managed to remove food & medical security from millions while simultaneously increasing the national debt ceiling, funding new travel jets & all sorts of other frivolous expenditures.

Monica @softtail65.bsky.social · 1d

Exactly!
I'd bet the total of people who have lost jobs since January is actually higher than 1 million, too.

Andre Blake didn't just star again for the Union on Saturday. He did so in the wake of Hurricane Melissa hammering Jamaica.

Thankfully, his family in May Pen was spared the worst of it, but the damage nationwide was still huge.

I talked with him about that, and...

Andre Blake stars again for the Union while keeping hurricane-hit Jamaica in mind

In the days between the Union’s playoff games, Blake's home country was hammered by Hurricane Melissa. Now that the club's sweep is done, his next games might take Jamaica to next year's World Cup.

In a way, I find the authoritarian takeover of our media system even more disturbing than the authoritarian takeover of our political system.

Our political system has been failing basically my entire adult life. But, the media system provided accountability and sort of worked. Now it’s collapsing.

The Orange Orifice should sue 60 Minutes for editing his interview footage. It would be another easy way for him to extort more money out of CBS.

I skimmed the 60 Mins transcript. They edited out some of the crazier shit he said, and his glee about Bari Weiss and CBS’s “new ownership.” But Norah O’Donnell also just let him ramble and deflect and say crazy lies uninterrupted. In other democracies, interviewers don’t tolerate that.

You, I, and I'm sure many others have come full circle on this. CBS traded trust for cash & they have completely tainted their reputation as a result.
