Respectfully. That's not the look of panic. It's the look abusers achieve when they're throwing their partner or family members around. This guy is wired up to batter someone. He's getting off on his freedom to be an unaccountable aggressor.

Stephen Miller would have been taller than 4'10". But... there was that botched bris.

Trump said words fed to him by the architect of N*zism 2.0... Stephen Miller. Trump is only a demented sock puppet for Miller and Vought. In exchange, Trump is allowed to have baubles and a smartphone from which to spew. It's actually an example of elder abuse.

Excellent! I'm delighted that you teased out that UPFs are bad, but the bigger problem is that many people cannot afford healthier options (or have no access to them). Healthy foods are marketed as luxury boutique items... e.g. "Sprouts", "Natural Grocers", "FreshThyme" etc. Nice work Doc.

The tone of most influencer skeets about Bondi's performance (lying and deflecting) yesterday strongly elements surprised outrage. "You're not going to believe... !" Really? Believe it. It's been the regime's model from the very beginning.

Last night I found my father's (z"l) original Antifa membership certificate. It was his NAVPERS-553 (pre DD-214) showing two Bronze Stars (with "V" devices). I can understand why Corporal Bone Spurs hates such Antifa members.

Americans quietly allowed the MAGA cult to coopt important symbols, like the Gadsden flag and the Christian cross. The people need to take those back and use them with pride. Besides, it will confuse the fuck outta cops at demonstrations.

They seem unusually skilled at throwing women around. I'm sure it's just a coincidence. 🤔

The face of a man saying, "Fiddy-t'ousands dollars? What fiddy-t'ousands dollars. I swear I know nuffins 'bout that fiddy-t'ousands dollars." The face of every bag man has when nicked by a beat cop.

Chuck has always been a bumbler, and mean-spirited. He hid it in practiced faux genteelness. The mask didn't slip though. He felt 100% safe in taking it off.

The disconnect is real. Yesterday, I watched a city council meeting where several people confidently stated, as truth, the lie that immigrants are most responsible for crime. While ignoring their own support for a 34x convicted felon and fraudster facing credible evidence he raped little girls.

And be aware of your own needs for agreement with your own confirmation biases.

Stephen Miller is not an anomaly. He's far worse than those in the "älteste" (or, "kapo") system of abusers in the camps. Miller does his evil, despite no coercion to him. Miller IS the coercion, and a "shanda" upon Judaism.

Jewish "lagerälteste" (Jewish camp police leader) in a N*zi concentration camp.

Since the likeness was pointed out to me in 2015, I cannot unsee the developing rectal prolapse here.

Medical care is a basic human right, and "affordable" is a relative term. The US needs Improved Medicare for All. Comprehensive medical, dental, vision, and mental health care with no patient cost at the point of service... like many countries already provide.

I'm very proud of the Las Cruces, NM city council for courageously amending the "welcoming city" resolution of 2017 to further protect immigrant residents. Viva Las Cruces!

A significant number of families use their BAH (as is allowed) to pay non-housing costs. Base housing will defer rent until BAH disbursements resume. But car, non-mil landlords, finance companies, and other expenses will not wait. Lots of pain coming.

Obituaries are aspirational retrospectives. Virtues may be extolled, but not held. In some ways, an obituary is the death version of the essay portion of a college application and a stretch from reality. The study gives insights on the changing virtue aspirations, not the held virtues. Good read.

Muting what are, essentially, bloggers with bullhorns (Rawstory and Daily Beast) made checking my Bluesky feed much, much less of a rage porn doom scroll. I haven't seen the phrase "MAGA melts down" since doing so.

A more correct analogy for Stephen Miller would be Grima Wormtongue, with Trump as King Theoden. We're watching a feeble, malignant narcissist being manipulated. Why? When Trump is gone, it creates plausible deniability for Miller, who will say Trump acted alone, uninfluenced.

Democracy didn't anticipate that an ambitious megalomaniac could successfully turn the presidency into a puppet regime, simply by manipulating a malignant narcissist president with the illusion of wealth and power. Trump made a Faustian deal to become president.

This extremely perceptive. Wonderfully so.

A Harvard-educated law professor. A gun. A synagogue. Two days after Jews were murdered in Manchester, he stepped outside Temple Beth Zion and pulled the trigger. Not a zealot, not a hayseed - the educated elite. Read: substack.com/home/post/p-...

The Harvard Man With a Gun

Two days after Jews were murdered outside a synagogue in Manchester, a man with a Harvard Law degree walked outside a synagogue in Massachusetts and fired a gun.

He had the shortest telomeres. Perhaps the shortest telomeres the world has ever seen. Esteemed cellular biologists often approach with tears in their eyes to say, "Sir, you have spectacularly short telomeres."
