Diehard Cubs fan; lawyer for 30 years; lifelong Democrat with 2 Siamese cats who run the house; is it possible to own too many guitars?
No, the thought process was "Where else are Dem voters going to go other than us? Trump? Republican candidates? Not likely. So, we can screw them with impunity and as always, they'll get over it."

A line from a Harlan Coben/Reese Witherspoon book I'm reading: "The poor want to be rich, the rich want to be kings, and kings want to rule everyone and everything."

Sorry, but this is today's pet peeve. If you're going to post something with a link to a story & I have to pay to read the story, don't. I'm tired of clicking on links only to find I have to pay to subscribe to something I wasn't interested in subscribing to just to read the fucking story.

A friend of mine who works for the fed gov as an independent contractor was told she needs to come in to work each day. So, she does, arriving at 7am, & she then spends all day reading books because there's nobody in any gov offices to work with, and they won't let her tele-commute. What geniuses.

Trump in January: I will stop all government censorship, protect free speech, and never use the power of the state to persecute my opponents.
Trump in September: Anyone who disagrees with me should be taken off the air.

Trump (an actual quote): "The war is going to end when it ends." In the words of Dread Pirate Roberts, truly you have a dizzying intellect.

Just finished reading Laura Loomer's deposition transcript re her suit against Bill Maher. What a despicable human being, though I did find her saying that MTG carries roast beef around in her pants amusing. What a waste of humanity.

Tried to watch Trump's press conference and started throwing up in my mouth after 5 minutes. He is so incredibly stupid and can't put together one coherent sentence. I hate with a passion what he's done and is doing to my country.

Just watched the Lays commercial for the umpteenth time, the one where a potato falls off a truck,a little girl picks it up, plants it, and grows . . . a potato. Am I missing something here?

The fact that 7-11 pizza is the "official pizza" of the Texas Rangers should tell you everything you need to know about Texas.

Also, every day it's just more shit from Trump/Musk. Hate them both with a passion. Can't watch the news anymore. Hate what they're doing to this country. Just read how kids in West Texas are showing signs of liver damage because Kennedy told them to use Vit A & cod liver oil. Trump is killing kids.

Just venting. Really tired of spam phone calls. Caller wants to buy my house; I'm entitled to some medical device from a "Medicare" outfit, my SSN has been "suspended," UPS is holding an "undeliverable" package for me. Today? Free funeral & burial service. They hung up when I said I was 112 yrs old.

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable.
Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes.
Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.
