Once again, this administration demonstrates that it is devoid of nuance and completely incoherent. The winner is opposed to the same regime we are, apparently, at “war” with. Rather than leveraging this as a victory for the cause, they default, as usual, to grievance and self-pity. Sad.

The WH (by way of Steven Cheung) posted on X that the Nobel Committee “puts politics over peace,” praising Trump and slamming the decision. This is the Trump team commenting.

Here it is, your #BlueSky #Bike Content of the Day for Thursday, 10/9/25. Great comeback by the prospective Mayor! But, next time, I recommend he go with “bikeist” -

This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system.

I am not fearful — I am fearless.

We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights..

This administration is flooding the zone so furiously that people have largely lost track of the lethal attacks on boats in the Caribbean, the gov’t shutdown, the economy, failed release of the Epstein files & so much else. It’s a tactic of would-be strongmen.

So cool that whenever someone asks the president, “did you eat the Lindbergh baby” he’s like, “no but I’d be allowed to, I have the right to, I might do it later”

And, later on, he forgot about the play clock thingy before managing to trip on one of his teammate’s cleats before stumbling and bumbling in for the winning TD. I do think he’s just plain dumb (whilst being blessed with an arm from the gods).
