Newsom: "This is a historically unpopular president. His policies are even more unpopular than him. In every core category he's underwater. He who promised to make us healthier & wealthier & we're poorer and sicker ... He knows he's lose midterms so he's trying to rig it before 1 vote is cast"

Philip K. Dick gets it right again.

Let's hear it for the vague blurs!

From A Scanner Darkly:

"Let's hear it for the vague blur!" the host said loudly, and there was
mass clapping.
In his scramble suit, Fred, who was also Robert Arctor, groaned and
thought: This is terrible.
Once a month an undercover narcotics agent of the county was
assigned at random to speak before bubblehead gatherings such as this.
Today was his turn. Looking at his audience, he realized how much he
detested straights. They thought this was all great. They were smiling. They were being entertained.

An Icegov tweet offering up a photo of new ICE training graduates--"American heroes" with their faces blurred out.

Merrick Garland will go down in history as one of the most feckless Attorney Generals in the history of this country.

Peter @notalawyer.bsky.social · 1d

My latest is about the latest revelations on the failed prosecution of Donald Trump, and why you should blame Merrick Garland more than the Supreme Court.

You Should Blame Merrick Garland

Garland's incompetence gave the Supreme Court the chance to set Trump free

I believe there are plans in our latest road standards, which would bring those changes when the road is redone, but I don't believe there are any short-term plans to make these changes, currently.

TBH I'm not sure there would still be a RapidRide program if Claudia Balducci hadn't been on the county council after 2020.

Girmay Zahilay promises to fast track the RapidRide R if elected Executive, which is otherwise currently set to be delivered in 2032 or later.

Q: Just last week a minister was shot directly in the face with a pepper round by a DHS agent that left his face bloodied. Are you concerned that this is a religious freedom issue?

MIKE JOHNSON: I can't comment on any of those instances. I haven't seen or heard any of those videos

For those who don't know:

What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them? Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it? In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.

Whoever muzzled Walz on the Harris campaign should never work in politics again.

He speaks the truth in a plain way that speaks to regular people - something Dems desperately need to figure out how to do.

Walz: "They are paying contractors to pay down the East Wing but they're not putting money into the food bank. So if there's a sense of frustration in America, it's very real ... when the White House press secretary said their top priority is the ballroom, we could not disagree more."
