Add this to the huge list of reasons people think the Democrats were full of shit about "Trump wants to end democracy".

I feel like the kind of person making that complaint specifically doesn't like the extended period of nothing but talking. 🤷‍♂️

Auspicious start for the new CBS News, laundering unattributed cop shit-talking through the incoming editor-in-chief’s blog and failing to correct a misspelling of the story subject’s name in the web headline for three days.

I still think having it as a final action sequence would've quelled a lot of the "this movie has twenty endings in a row" complaints by breaking those up.

he has been talking obsessively about the afterlife for some time, he is missing for chunks of time, his aides are trying harder than usual to show he’s fit, his public appearances show someone in visible physical decline, and jd vance talked impromptu about being prepared to assume office

Trump: "I don't think there's anything that's gonna get me in heaven. I think I'm not maybe heaven bound. I may be in heaven right now as we fly on Air Force One. I'm not sure I'm gonna be able to make heaven."

Even some of the ones you wouldn't have expected, like Mnuchin, managed to step up when they needed to.

In LA, DC, and elsewhere, DHS officers are reportedly pulling over work vans without warning and detaining everyone inside.

ICE is all over the city and burbs today, including Waukegan. Multiple reports on social media from people who have found empty work vans and are trying to locate family of their owners. This is a near daily occurrence now.

She was forced into this box of "four more years of Biden but with a younger person" which was just not the right message.
schroedinger.bsky.social
I think she could've won if 1) Biden hadn't prevented her from staking out issues where she'd do things differently, Israel/Gaza especially but probably needed more than just that 2) she hadn't let the Dem consultant class suck all the good vibes out of the campaign (e.g. stopping calling GOP weird)

I think Harris actually got real benefit from getting to skip years of horse race coverage that can make voters hate whoever wins b/c they're already sick of hearing about the candidate. Problem was Biden demanding 0 differentiation and letting Dem consultants suck all the good vibes out of things.

Like obviously you can't run as the sitting VP and say the president you're serving under sucks, but she was specifically forbidden from pointing out where she'd do anything differently, which was definitely necessary for issues like Israel.

I imagine the gov site I got this from won't be long for this world now. 20 inventions we wouldn't have without JPL, including cellphone cameras, home insulation, and baby formula. www.jpl.nasa.gov/infographics...

I think this is why AOC drives chuds so crazy, beyond how they react to progressives in general. She's extremely attractive and they can't stand that their penises tingle when they look at her.

careful what you wish for, we'll wind up with Trump just taking all our clocks

He also wound up having to change his Twitter handle to stem the huge wave of harassment she pointed at him.

We should have ended it all when he started openly monetizing the presidency at his DC hotel & sending his kids to represent the 🇺🇸 government at official international events. But he is One Special Boy and we appear to no longer be a serious country interested in the rule of law or the Constitution.

Trump's conversation with Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto is caught on a hot mic. Hard to tell exactly what they are talking about, but Subianto asks Trump about meeting Eric Trump and Don Jr, who supposedly have nothing to do with government while they run the family business.

If Clinton wins but has a GOP Senate in 2017 that decides to just hold the seat open indefinitely, that's an easy pitch for the Dems in the 2018 midterms. In the meantime no bad 5-4 decisions just a bunch of 4-4 deadlocks.

(actually a little bit of thinking and I managed to get one set of grandparents' old landline right on the first try based on the Google results that came back, surprised given how long it's been since I've had use of it 😟)

Typing that out I also remembered how back when phones didn't have any kind of security lockout on them, if you found someone's cellphone you'd look for the Mom contact and call it to find out who to give the phone back to.
schroedinger.bsky.social
I only have three I can still remember at this point, my parents' cellphones and the landline at their house. IIRC I got a cellphone at the same time my mom did but back then you'd still have plenty of reasons to need to call from a regular phone or someone else's cell.
