Kid Rock: Do you know what is stupid… these chicks running around on campuses with blue hair, five nose rings.

I guess this means the Tik Tok deal he announced is 'vapor ware" now.

After this, one wonders how is he going to keep breaking the law with extensions for his donor buddies ?

Adelita Grijalva won her election to Congress over two weeks ago, but Mike Johnson still hasn't sworn her in.

Why the delay?

Perhaps it's because Grijalva would cast the final vote needed to release the Epstein files.

Well, there was a Dalton Trumbo biopic out a few years ago.
So, there is that.

If they ever release the Epstein files, 25th amendment on this guy should be easy enough.

Vought is competent and also has Heritage Foundation backing him up and helping with political support. Miller ? His political power is directly proportionate to his relationship with Trump. He scares staffers and some on the hill, but deep down, not even the folks at the rallies respect him.

A different kind of self-deporting. I love the caption under the header image here: "Curtis Yarvin fears American democracy will survive Donald Trump."

Sorry about that. The horse and sparrow economic theory is what I meant to type.

Thanks for the link. You are preaching to the choir.
And, I will sing it with you.

I prefer the olden days term ( back when people used words like groceries) The horse and oats theory 😉

Mitt Romney used to kill me by truthfully bragging "I did not inherit any of my wealth".

Although, he did "earn" a pretty good income from being one of the trustees of the generation-skipping trust (GST) tax dodge that his daddy set up for all the heirs.

Why does Trump think he's going to get away with jacking up health premiums on families by 75% in order to fund a giant tax cut for his billionaire pals?

Because he thinks his campaign to repress free speech will keep us quiet.

But he's wrong. We are fighting back.
