If I die under this administration, don’t bother burying me — just dump my body on the White House lawn.

Making political hay out of this makes you an asshole. A ghoulish one.

It's forever remarkable to me what a wholesome, big-hearted movie that is.

that johnson is more terrified of seating a duly elected democrat who could force an epstein vote than having the entire government shut down really makes me wonder about that epstein vote tbh

even before the kicker my jaw was hanging open

Screenshot of a paragraph from the NYT article linked in this thread:

Speaking by telephone from his private plane en route to San Francisco, he lamented that he has to pay for hundreds of off-duty law enforcement officers to help patrol the convention area and said that San Francisco needed to “re-fund” the police.

Closer to the latter. Voters assume you're too timid to put your real order out there because they know it'll mark you as a carpetbagger.

Where exactly in New York are you getting your bagels? Kentford-on-Shropshire?

🎃👻🐈‍⬛ Grim Pierce 🪦⚰️☠️ @unchi.org · 9h

As Emma Goldman famously said, if I can’t have a decent proper bagel, I don’t want to be part of your revolution

Democrats has a trifecta in 2021 and did not do any of these things. Maybe Dems should be taking notes on power politics here.

Thune: "If the Democrats had won the majority, they probably would've tried to nuke the filibuster. And then you'd have four new senators from Puerto Rico and DC, you'd have a packed Supreme Court, you'd have abortion on demand ... "

Now this is comedy gold:

"Jim Jefferies [had his invite rescinded] after he said: “One reporter was killed by the government … unfortunate, but not a fucking hill that I’m gonna die on.” Outing himself as an absolutely awful person and then not even getting the cash? Unfortunate."

PRITZKER: "I genuinely think there is something wrong with him. I wish that his family would intervene, because I do think he needs mental health help."

Greg Sargent @gregsargent.bsky.social · 20h

JB Pritzker has also been emphatically placing Trump's mental decline squarely on the agenda. On our pod, he adds a new element: People around Trump are using his decline to manipulate him, so they're less likely to intervene. More Dems should say this. 1/
