I am a Phillies fan but I like Kershaw. That was tough to watch. He is a good guy, but he is toast.

Honestly, people need to STOP claiming this is all about nullification.

These were people who were basically pushed, IDed their legal guns, and then arrested.

That's not an assault.

This is some bullshit right here, brought to you by the Village of Broadview and the State of Illinois. It’s time for a lawsuit.

A very silly situation. Cops pushing protesters and press out of the free speech zone. Apparently standing at the corner of Beach and Lexington is still fine, though.

WSJ reports that DOJ is going to charge John Bolton.

In case you needed anyone less sympathetic to rally behind than Jim Comey.

www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

Prosecutors in Maryland are expected in coming days to charge one of Trump’s first-term national security advisers, John Bolton, now a top Trump critic, with mishandling classified information, according to people familiar with the matter.

Generally speaking, I am not particularly worried about me altho ICE keeps popping up around me. Crazy.

I've had a long day and so can't really do this myself, yet.

But I hope people realize this shitshow propaganda fest needs a very coordinated vigorous response?

Like rap sheets for all the people present?

Mockery? Music videos?

"Antifa has been around in various iterations for almost 100 years in some instances, going back to the Weimar Republic in Germany."

My goodness, this woman is amazing. I cannot believe I saw her in a small club in Chicago, sandwiched between Fastball and Whiskeytown. She had not totally found her voice at that point, but man... she could sing. And now she make glorious albums, too. Another gem.

New smart bulb seems to play nice with the old smart bulb. And while I was up there, I cleaned both fans and now my allergies are shit. Good times.

Dispatch from Pennsylvania on a highly unusual state Supreme Court election—one of the few most consequential matters on the ballot anywhere in the country next month. New from me in @boltsmag.org: boltsmag.org/pennsylvania...

Inside the Clunky Elections to Control Pennsylvania's Supreme Court - Bolts

The GOP is making an expensive push to end Democrats’ majority on a court at the center of election lawsuits, sparking a fledging campaign season with little precedent or template.

Today on Volts: hey listen up! The most important election of the year is happening in Georgia next month. Two seats on the (currently all-GOP) Public Service Commission are up & rising electricity prices are on everyone's mind. This is a bellwether for next year's governor & midterm elections!

Pay attention to the most important political race of 2025

With energy affordability set to dominate national politics, Peter Hubbard and Brionté McCorkle explain why a down-ballot Georgia race is ground zero for the fight.

John Oliver took a look at Presidential Libraries this week. It is not surprising that they often portray an incomplete picture of a Presidency and amount to a giant grift. The latest guy is gonna build FantasyLand and run off with all the cash, while selling out America.
