Pissed off sweary lib gramma and mom. Mom hugs liberally spread. I like to think I am an ally. I'm fucking funny and appreciate great puns and old movie references.
According to a new study, members of Congressional leadership perform 47% better in stock market trades than their rank-and-file peers, thanks to access to nonpublic information.

Today would be a great day to ban ALL elected officials from trading stock, don't you think?

🚨ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME??

Mike Johnson waited 50 DAYS to swear in Adelita Grijalva but he swore in Matt Van Epps from Tennessee 48 HOURS after his special election.

Mike Johnson is a piece of shit.

ICE agents beat up 16 year old American citizen on his way to school. Keep recording, folks!

This will matter again someday.

I have knocked a lot of doors, including Republican doors.

I have never had one person tell me they would like to send their tax money to private religious schools.

Usually, re-dedication ceremonies are held in broad daylight, with pomp and circumstance and a heads up to the press to cover said event with smiling politicos and speechless honorees….not marked with a “hey! look what we did when no one was looking!” tweet after business hours.

“The decision was made to exclude me from the filmed production of Swan Lake because I was told my brown skin would disrupt the aesthetic.” ~ Misty Copeland

When folks gripe about DEI, remind them who benefited from shutting out dancers like Copeland. That pattern runs through our whole history.

NEW: I got a hold of letters from nearly 20 of Trump's ballroom donors, sent to a senator who requested details on how much they gave + who solicited money from them.

Most ignored the actual Qs and instead boasted of their philanthropy and love of America.

Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) asked for dollar amounts and Trump contacts. Donors responded by boasting about their philanthropy and love of America.

Good job, Brownie.
Kavanaugh stops.
Americans have been dragged, tackled, beaten, tased and shot by immigration agents.

They’ve had their necks kneeled on.

They’ve been held outside in the rain while in their underwear.

At least three citizens were pregnant when agents detained them.

Newsom’s comms team still going hard

Yesterday the President fell asleep, yet again, during a televised fake Cabinet meeting staged so that each of his courtiers could heap praise on him, praise for which he couldn't stay conscious. He woke up just long enough to spew racism. Why is this not being treated as an emergency? >

Shame.
Ever mindful of the visuals, he gathers a giant group of old white people to surround him and support him while he spews his vile racist rants.
Trump, continued: "What the Somalian people have done to Minnesota is not even believable. It’s not even believable. And a lot of it starts with the governor. A lot of it starts with Barack HUSSEIN Obama, because that’s when people started coming in... They want to kiss our country good night."

"Does this feel like or look like a well-run competent administration? It took them 10 months to discover that the United States doesn't grow bananas and that therefore if we tariff bananas that that's not going to bring banana factories on shore."

this stupid shit is all they have, they are incapable of governing because they only care about exploiting culture war bull shit to accumulate power and wealth among their inner circle
Sean Duffy on slashing fuel economy standards: "This rule will actually allow you to bring back the 1970s station wagon. Maybe a little wood paneling on the side. We can bring back choice to consumers."

Who are all these grinning white people laughing at Trump's vile racism? h/t to @helenkennedy.bsky.social for pulling together a list. Shame on each & every one of them.

71 million views. Another brilliant PR move by the outstanding WH comms team. They owned the libs again by attacking and demeaning Sabrina just because she asked them not to steal her music for one of their sick deportation videos. Thanks for the new voters.

What happens when Secretary of Defense, in this case former Fox News host Pete Hegseth, potentially commits a war crime?

The most interesting thing about the suspect in the pipe bombing attempt is Jeffrey Epstein and Donald Trump.

Actuarials is important. No idea how to spell it, or use it in a sentence, but really, important. Really!
Like I've said before, if you have any doubts about climate change, just go to a super-boring insurance conference and listen to the super-boring panels where they dryly talk about the growing threat of disasters so catastrophic and unpredictable in scope they simply cannot be insured at any price.
Wild how the Fed chair saying that *entire regions of the United States* won’t be able to get a mortgage in the next decade barely registered as a news event
