I mean, I've got a 1st place Pinewood Derby trophy from around 1977 or so, that I'll be happy to share if it'll shut this idiot up for a few days.

And a tomato as the other thing?? What am I, made of money??

My name is Mary Peltola, and I'm running for U.S. Senate to fight for fish, family, and freedom – and that begins with fixing the rigged system in DC that’s shutting down Alaska.

We need systemic change if we're going to lower costs, save our fisheries, and fill our homes with abundance again.

It's good to see Herr Miller agreeing that ICE agents are now domestic terrorists.

Law enforcement officers CANNOT use deadly force against a fleeing person fleeing unless they have a reasonable belief that the individual poses a danger to others (e.g., they know the person is armed). If in vehicle, the person must be threatening to use deadly force with the vehicle or other means

It's not a troll. They have already started pushing 'might makes right' through their various media people and insinuating international law doesn't exist. They'll transfer people to the Pituffik space base first, and then claim 'training exercises' to bring the rest of the troops and equipment.
I think the Greenland threat is a troll. I think.

But it would sure be nice for some senators and GOP house members to speak up now and make it clear that an attack on a nato ally would lead to removal from office

Man, aren't we glad he got that peace prize? Imagine what he'd be doing otherwise. Of course, that means next year's FIFA Peace Prize winner is going to have to bomb 9 countries to prove their superior peaceiness.

I’d hate to think what he’d be doing if he hadn’t declared himself the “President of Peace”

Most small business owners were Trump supporters in 2024

In fact, Trump has been a disaster for small businesses

Small businesses have lost nearly 200,000 jobs since he has taken office

2026 will be worse

I think liberalism should be a big tent. But no the tent isn’t big enough to include MTG and Bill Kristol. No fucking thanks.

I'm more and more impressed with this woman each time I see her. She's going to be a force.
This has always been a Bluesky-first campaign. But as of today, we will no longer be using Twitter. At all.

And I'm calling on other candidates to follow suit.

That last sentence in the second-to-last paragraph is really all she needed to say. "We need to be able to get the principals on the record and on camera."

All the government has to do to kill a CBS story is refuse to give interviews about it.

Weiss just gave Trump a kill switch for CBS.
Bari Weiss this morning on the 60 Minutes segment: "We need to be able to get the principals on the record and on camera."

Of course, most journalists know that oftentimes people who are the subject of negative reporting don't want to speak on camera or on the record.

I've said this phrase many times throughout my life, and it's still so very appropriate to the DNC leadership here:

DON'T ASK A QUESTION THAT YOU DON'T WANT TO HEAR THE ANSWER TO!
Hide the Autopsy Report, Lose the Narrative

Hear me out…

At the exact moment Dems should be drawing a clean contrast with Trump’s culture of secrecy and cover ups, the DNC is choosing opacity.

Hiding the 2024 autopsy report isn’t coming across like strategy, it looks like fear of hard truths.
