Trump: "Please remember I wrote Osama bin Laden exactly one year ago, one year before he blew up the World Trade Center. And I said, 'You gotta watch Osama bin Laden!' ... I gotta take a little credit."

My favorite thing to do when MAGA tries to deflect from how Trump still hasn’t released the Epstein files is to say “You keep deflecting which makes me wonder what’s in your search history and hard drive.” Needless to say they lose their minds. #ReleaseTheEpstienFiles

HBO Max in/around the MA/RI area got them here. Ugh! #AEWCollision

Talia Thrace @taliathrace.bsky.social · 4d

So as a data point, I did not get a single ICE commercial watching on HBO Max (NYC market) while I'm seeing some people got multiple in the same break, so this may wind up being a market by market/affiliate by affiliate decision #AEWCollision 🤼‍♂️

BREAKING: A federal judge has temporarily blocked Trump from deploying the National Guard in Portland, ruling he overstepped his authority and violated state sovereignty. The court said Trump’s move lacked any “colorable basis” and was not justified by conditions on the ground.

Busy day today and didn’t get to draw as much as I really wanted. 20 min that is it bah! 😖 Working on moving arms around on this one. Truly unsure if I’ll leave this as a blue lead sketch or finish it up with .3/.5 lead. #ComicArt #ComicSky #FigureDrawing

Today marks the first day in the 55-year history of PBS and 54-year history of NPR that public media has broadcast to its audiences without federal funding. But even though lots of local outlets are at risk, PBS and NPR are still here, providing fair, accurate news coverage and will not be silenced.

They can sustain them but the sales say that #1’s sell more so they just hit reset/cancel all the time. 10 issues means 2 volumes they can sell. Sadly people are catching on & I feel will actively avoid new series knowing they can get it in trade which kills series quicker due to low sales.

Last I remember hearing is that Dem’s want to have the healthcare cuts (set to take effect AFTER midterms to be repealed. Am I right on this? If it does get shutdown Dem’s need to press hard on that messaging and the fact it’s a time bomb they want defused.

He labeled “Antifa” a terrorist group. Mind you Antifa has no structure or leadership of any sort to my knowledge. Trump plans to instigate protestors in 1 of these cities then claim it’s Antifa to declare the Insurrection Act to deploy the military. With that it’s game over sorry but if
