It hasn’t been a total flop. As a tool for spotting douchebags it’s been a perfect 10.
Tesla’s Cybertruck is turning 2. It’s been a big flop.
CEO Elon Musk once described the Cybertruck as Tesla’s “best ever” product. But demand for the controversial pickup truck has dried up.

And it goes on.

The man is completely unraveling.

Bombing boats, threatening invasions “to stop drugs,” and now promising a full pardon to a president convicted of trafficking 400 tons of cocaine into the U.S.

This isn’t law and order.

It’s the most lawless presidency in American history.👇

A reminder: Trump 1.0 ordered the Afghanistan withdrawal, and Trump 2.0 granted the shooter asylum this past April. Trump 2.0 also dismantled the joint terrorism task force, and gutted our national security apparatus.

There is a reason why Witkoff did not want any officials with the State Dept or anyone else present during his many meetings w/Putin - he didn’t want witnesses to his treasonous behavior. Highly unusual, but makes perfect sense when you consider that he only cared about Russia.

Now showing: The Magnificent VA-01 Seven

(Narrator: this post was inevitable after the number of candidates changed to seven in the Democratic primary)
I made a meme to reflect that the Democratic primary race in Virginia’s first Congressional district now has seven candidates. The graphic is an image with a sepia-toned background in the slight style of a Western film poster and riffs off the 1960 movie The Magnificent Seven. The title text, white with red outline, reads, The Magnificent VA-01 Seven. Below the title is the pretend tagline in red text, which reads, “They are seven…and they are standing up for VA-01 like seven hundred! Below the tagline are silhouettes of seven people riding horses. The names of each candidate appear on each silhouette in alphabetical order: Salaam Bhatti, Tim Cywinski, Lisa Vedernikova Khanna, Jason Knapp, Ericka Kopp, Shannon Taylor, Mel Tull. Below the horse riders is red text that reads “Coming soon to the Virginia 2026 midterm election.”

We started as Wittman’s friends, now we’re “and neighbors”?! What’s going on? Now that #VA01 is a toss up district, Rob feels need to address those of us who are “neighbors”, but not necessarily “friends”?

@neighbors4change.bsky.social, @wittmanwatch.bsky.social we might be getting somewhere?

Sen. Mark Kelly has released a statement.

"If this is meant to intimidate me and other members of Congress from doing our jobs and holding this administration accountable, it won't work. I've given too much to this country to be silenced by bullies..."
Today, Arizona Senator Mark Kelly released the following statement: "When / was 22 years old, I commissioned as an Ensign in the United States Navy and swore an oath to the Constitution. / upheld that oath through flight school, multiple deployments on the USS Midway, 39 combat missions in Operation Desert Storm, test pilot school, four space shuttle flights at NASA, and every day since / retired - which I did after my wife Gabby was shot in the head while serving her constituents. "In combat, I had a missile blow up next to my jet and flew through anti-aircraft fire to drop bombs on enemy targets. At NASA, I launched on a rocket, commanded the space shuttle, and was part of the recovery mission that brought home the bodies of my astronaut classmates who died on Columbia. I did all of this in service to this country that I love and has given me so much. "Secretary Hegseth's tweet is the first I heard of this. I also saw the President's posts saying I should be arrested, hanged, and put to death. "If this is meant to intimidate me and other members of Congress from doing our jobs and holding this administration accountable, it won't work. I've given too much to this country to be silenced by bullies who care more about their own power than protecting the Constitution."
