This:
The political party that won a very close presidential race and controls both houses of Congress by small margins says the party out of power cheats on elections.
Makes no sense.
If the party out of power cheated, it wouldn't be out of power.
Fact is, the party in power wants to end fair elections.

The books are being written right now by all the journalists you see everyday on msm, the pundits they interview, and probably by the fuckers in the administration, themselves .
that the president is a rapidly decaying lunatic is the worst kept secret in the world right now
when It Happens, we are going to get countless accounts about how bad it was and how everyone knew and it's absolute malpractice that the same media that went full court press on Biden Old ignores it

"A key European ally of Trump said he was 'traumatized' by a meeting where the president’s 'psychological state' came across as 'dangerous.’ Robert Fico, the populist prime minister of Slovakia … characterized Trump as being 'out of his mind,' per a diplomat."

I would like to know how my prior colleagues, who have chosen to pursue leadership positions under this charlatan, justify ordering agents to break their oaths of office and open investigations on people simply for exercising their legal rights.
Good luck gazing in the mirror when this is all over.

Yes, but Trump knows if Stephen Miller goes then the White House falls apart. He's the most powerful unelected man in the world and is essentially the head of DHS and DOJ.
if bovino is out and conservatives are turning on noem then there is a real opportunity to demand that miller resign too.

The media should cover sport the way they cover the state murder of civilians:
‘Jannik Sinner appeared to win the French Open yesterday after what supporters say was a comeback from being two sets down.’

Some perspective: The S&P opened down -1.3% on Trump's Greenland saber-rattling. That's $750 billion of wealth destroyed -- roughly equal to estimates of the value of Greenland.
And so ~in dollar terms~ his shenanigans have already cost the US one Greenland, and we've got nothing to show for it.

Even if you give some of them the benefit of the doubt, they have been so woefully timid in calling out Trump’s corruption and daily flings with sheer madness, how can you possibly expect them to lead the charge against him and the oligarchs?

The 25th Amendment must be invoked by the cabinet. I’m all for pressuring them. Congressional Dems should lead the charge. Not on Bluesky or Threads. Let’s do it.

Bill Watterson is my favorite cartoonist. I adored the relationship btw Calvin and Hobbes as a child. But as I've gotten older, these strips feel even more tender and insightful. My respect for him grew when I learned of his stance against merchandising. Such principles are almost unheard of today.
![Excerpt from Wikipedia reads: "Fight against merchandising his characters
For years, Watterson battled against pressure from publishers to merchandise his work, something that he felt would cheapen his comic through compromising the act of creation or reading.[21][22]
He refused to merchandise his creations on the grounds that displaying Calvin and Hobbes images on commercially sold mugs, stickers, and T-shirts would devalue the characters and their personalities. Watterson said that Universal kept putting pressure on him and that he had signed his contract without fully perusing it because, as a new artist, he was happy just to find a syndicate willing to give him a chance (two other syndicates had previously turned him down). He added that the contract was so one-sided that, if Universal really wanted to, they could license his characters against his will, and could even fire him and continue Calvin and Hobbes with a new artist. Watterson's position eventually won out, and he was able to renegotiate his contract so that he would receive all rights to his work. Later he said that the licensing fight exhausted him and contributed to the need for a nine-month sabbatical in 1991.[23]"](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ks3gpa6ftoyaq7hmf6c4qx4c/bafkreihmgl3sxrmb5t6edpjnixyanj2rvcf43zdv46mbifhl7hdtmz5u6y@jpeg)
