Just when we learn the word "emoluments'...
I will wager the 'Kookenai' County groypers are doing the heil trump dance of wtf-ery.

My military kid and family are not getting paid. We are now supporting 6 humans, 5 canines, and 6 felines.
And we can't claim them as dependents.
F the GOP with big pokey cacti!

Peaceful assembly isn’t an insurrection.

Storming the Capitol to hang your own vice-president and end democracy is.

Our military family can not get a USAA loan. We must withdraw money from savings for them. We are the fortunate. I am stating facts not complaining. There are many who are far worse off. If you can help, please consider donating to military charity of choice. TIA

These are the people our nation voted to run our country.
Did they eat their quota and mine of paint chips as children?

Besides linking Tylenol in pregnant women to autism, RFK Jr. now says circumcision is part of the reason why kids are autistic.

"Children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism, and it's highly likely because they're given Tylenol. None of this is positive..."

Many thanks!

How can they do the studies when they defunded the scientists?

RFK Jr on Tylenol and autism: "It is not proof. We're doing the studies to make the proof."

It's stuff like this that has me reach for the edible.

As the dog murderer and pals quickly ask Siri, "Who is Habeas Corpus and is he an American citizen? Is he related to Posse Comitatus?"

Ron Filipkowski @ronfilipkowski.bsky.social · 3d

I’m pretty sure if we designed an assisted living facility to look like the WH and put lots of gold all over it and a ballroom with his late 70s playlist on a loop we could coax him in there and he wouldn’t know the difference. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · 3d

Q: Have you given any more thought to possibly suspending habeas corpus?

TRUMP: Suspending who?

Q: Habeas corpus

TRUMP: I don't know. I'd rather leave that to Kristi.

Governance by social media is like passing notes in Kindergarten.
See Don run.
See Don fall on his painted face.
See Don blame Marco for fall and fire him...

I rather like where this tale is going.
