I had the thought in the last week or so that if OBL was still alive, he'd be acting pretty fucking smug right about now.

I bet Rubio started out writing “so we can announce a deal” but changed his mind to “so you can announce a deal first”.

Never not stroking that guy’s fragile ego.

Some are. Like @markpocan.bsky.social doing town halls in Drunk Van Orden’s district since DVO won’t.

I’m sure they would make the coverage retroactive to Jan 1st, which wouldn’t be a total clusterfuck at all.

Q: Do you agree that the mayor of Chicago and governor of Illinois should be in prison?

MIKE JOHNSON: Should they be in prison? I'm not the attorney general. I'm not following the day to day on that

Would the plural be Johns Candy?

Every bit of that makes as much sense as the teacher in a Peanuts cartoons except for the dog-whistley part.

Why can't they just be normal hypocrites? Why do they have to be fucking goofball hypocrites?

Amen.

I mean, things *could* be much worse than they are. Just because tanks aren't rolling in our cities (yet) doesn't mean that things aren't really, really bad.

I must be following different people. I don't see many hopeful, much less "winning", posts.

The moment that judge failed in their duty, an order came from Miller or some other fascist in the government to accelerate the invasion of Illinois by 1000% to get boots on the ground before the judge could issue a ruling. Once boots are on the ground, enforcing a ruling becomes almost impossible.
