Boulder-ish, Colorado. The part of it that's in Weld. Still mostly random quips. No refunds.

Democrats have been fighting for months to address America's healthcare crisis

For the millions who will lose coverage
For people with cancer who won't get the care they need
For working families who can't afford to pay $25K more a year for healthcare

We will keep fighting

Semi-regular reminder that a sane country would have already impeached and removed. But then again a sane country wouldnโ€™t have elected a maniac criminal twice in the first place.

With SCOTUS nullifying the 14th Amendment this morning, we can't keep fooling ourselves about the illegitimacy of this entire federal apparatus. Shut it down.

@kylec.bsky.social Some quiet appreciation for helping out two stations whose hometowns aren't even part of 9NEWS' viewing area. Particularly happy to donate as a former partner of KSUT and knowing their work.

Also, #BringBackTheBeard

If you're looking for confusion over temperature units, ask any Canadian suburban pool owner what its temperature currently is ๐Ÿ˜‰

"financial reasons" to cancel a top-rated show... or something wholly predictable
I get it, but the final say on throwing away CBS News' whole brand history is currently in her hands, not his. Ellison is offering $19 a share, PARA is currently trading at $11. (Also guessing Colbert will get tossed within days of that transaction closing, or most likely prior to it)

Honestly itโ€™s good to know that when a guy who spent decades hanging out with a famous pedophile and is accused of being a pedophile himself spends years hyping up the existence of pedophile files and doesnโ€™t release them, people will only elect him president twice before they get suspicious.

What does history tell us about what a proto-tyrant will do when he has his back truly against the wall? Nothing bad, right?

Right?

It's as if all of the Trumpite "weaponization of government!!" fake talking points during the Biden administration were just to set the stage to undertake this kind of taxpayer-funded revanchist garbage
What a surprise that the Trump admin suddenly comes out with this right when MAGA is fuming about the Epstein fiasco. Quick - look over here!

With treasuries markets starting to price in the "big beautiful bill", don't fall for the inevitable 2008-recycled "nobody could see this crisis coming" line. A Liz Truss-like bond and currency crisis is entirely foreseeable right now.

Trump needs to be removed from office. This is destabilizing the entire world.

He is either a) causing panic in a city of 10 million for no reason, b) preparing to launch a nuclear attack or c) divulging an ally's intent to launch a nuclear attack.

None of this acceptable.
Trump just posted โ€œEveryone should immediately evacuate Tehran!โ€

matches the $135-to-$499 markup on a UMIDIGI Note 100 5G rebadged into a "T1" (the rear cameras on the "T1" marketing photos have been photoshopped to conceal that it's this exact model) www.aliexpress.us/item/3256808...?

At some point we're going to have to stop asking "when is (insert name) going to step up and say he's gone to far" and realize that maybe they are ok with the president's actions. We must realize that no one is going to swoop in and "save" us, it has to be us... we the people.
