I'd forgotten about Cameo.

Although the only time I've ever heard of it was by George Santos, so...

Many said that wheeling Feinstein out for votes was elder abuse; imo, as a CA voter, it was.

But MAGA needs to take everything up to 11, and we get to see someone deteriorating in front of us. Surreal.

I don't think he's even lying most of the time. I don't think he's sufficiently cognizant.

There was another promise:

To release the Epstein files.

Mamdani: "Trump ran on 3 promises - punishment of his political enemies, easing cost of living crisis, & mass deportation. It's that second promise that brought so many to his campaign. And yet he's unable & unwilling to deliver bc he's beholden to the very billionaires that are profiting off of it"

The groveling is so pathetic. It's just cringe to watch.

'When authoritarians seize power, it is crucial to recognize courageous defenders of freedom who rise and resist,' the Norwegian Nobel Committee said as it announced Maria Corina Machado as the winner of the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize

It's so unethical and repulsive. So much damage done. I have no words.

At this point, I really can't tell if really have no clue, or are plain ole lying, or - somehow - both.

I'm going with Option 3.

I can’t not believe how hard it is to sleep when you’re watching your country, be dismantled by the dumbest people.

Yes. And I'm just spitballing here, but I'm going to guess that they get an exemption. Zero proof.
Just my guess.

Vance is responding to a purported quote from Joy Reid THAT SHE DIDN’T SAY.

Left is Vance quote-tweeting a BS MAGA account. Right is my transcription of the video. She’s talking about HER PARENTS’ EXPERIENCE OF RACISM NOT HERSELF. SHE’S QUOTING HER MOTHER.

Vance didn’t listen / doesn’t care.

....
Joy Reid has had such a good life in this country.
It's been overwhelmingly kind and gracious to her. She is far wealthier than most. Yet she oozes with contempt.
My honest, non-trolling advice to Joy Reid is that you'd be a much happier person if you showed a little gratitude

I absolutely agree. But I don't think that a sociopath like Noem can be embarrassed.

Oh, and ICE has apparently released an enemies list, including ~30 Democratic politicians.

Two.

Two 'suspected' gang members.

Performative abuse. Rappelling from helicopters. It's absurd, but it really happened.

And, obviously the babies that they took were clearly gang members.

DHS says an operation last week in which agents raided a Chicago apartment building, rappelled in from helicopters, broke down doors and detained numerous residents, resulted in the arrest of two suspected gang members.

Now that's interesting.

I figured that the Cupertino to Menlo Park corridor would have a different deal, but that was just an assumption.

I spoke to a Venezuelan woman who was arrested in this raid and later released with her 4yo son. She said agents broke down their door, pointed guns at them and made sexualized remarks about Venezuelan women. When she returned to her apartment it was boarded up and all her possessions were gone.

In July, we documented nearly 50 incidents of immigration officers shattering car windows to make arrests — a tactic experts say was rarely used before Trump took office.

ICE claims its officers use a “minimum amount of force.”

You can judge for yourself.

I'm awake well before I want to be (not yet 5 am).

I'm pretty sure that only dogs, dog owners, and footballers will be out in Calgary weather, too.

Life in the foothills of the mountains is great (1hr to Banff).

Until it isn't. 👀

Time to get the rest of the tomatoes and carrots from the garden.

this is wild: while Stephen Miller's guy was in Minnesota for his uncle's funeral, somebody was able to see his entire phone and take pictures of his Signal group chats talking about military deployments to Portland, and brought them to the Strib (gift link: www.startribune.com/trump-offici...)
