Frogs everywhere, join him

Everyone in any "nice sleepy little southern town" is armed to the teeth, and if federal law enforcement and soldiers suddenly moved in to occupy that town, those arms would be bared. Steven Miller, in addition to being a fascist, doesn't know what the fuck he's talking about.

Anybody recognize some (all) of these things?

From the U.S. Holocaust Museum... nothing to see here. 👀

I hope that the Nobel Committee knows that the instant they give Trump the Nobel Peace Prize, that honor becomes forever meaningless, a laughing stock among international awards. The Norwegian Nobel Committee would never be taken seriously again.

It's laughable to me that the fasci right goes berserk if anyone burns a flag as protest, yet they routinely fly their flags from their too-big trucks until the flags are nothing but filthy, shredded rags.

Based on that post, he sounds a lot like an ideologue and incompetent.

The Post is dead. Avoid it. Let it rot.

ICE attempted
and failed to disappear a food delivery guy.
It needed to be scored.

I'm not sure 'inequality' is really the word for it anymore. 'Hoarding' seems more like it. We're ruled by wealth hoarders.

Keeping kids safe is not important to MAGA. They proudly say that the murder of children in classrooms is a fair cost for unfettered access to guns for all. They are likewise perfectly happy to see children suffer and die of diseases in order to salve their primitive superstitions.

But it is on the media to stand the fuck up. Which, they are not doing. They are all taking a knee and letting this happen without making even a peep.

The charging and imprisonment of political enemies on bogus crimes is only just beginning. Don't expect the courts to do anything about it, either.

This is being ordered by the administration. The courts will do nothing. The First Amendment is dead.

Irony, Karma, a simple lesson?

Both of the co-founders of Turning Point USA died from things that were preventable, but which they mocked and urged this nation to ignore. Bill Montgomery was killed in 2020 by COVID and Charlie Kirk was killed in 2025 by gun violence.

Charlie Kirk called me a ‘lunatic’ and a ‘prostitute’ and demanded I be deported.

Nothing, *nothing*, justifies killing him, or robbing his kids of their dad.

We don’t know the identity or motive of the shooter but murder can *never* be the response to political disagreements.

Alan Sparhawk made an album with - of all people - Trampled by Turtles last year. Probably only the guy from Low could bring a runaway-train band like Trampled to a screeching halt.

Any relation to Cesar Tovar, Mr. Versatility for the Twins back in the 60s?

Why would Lanning go anywhere else? It's a good bet he's in Eugene at least until after his kids graduate high school, another 5-6 years, and if he does leave eventually, it'll be the NFL.
