As per usual, Rude Pundit is completely on-point. Maybe -- maybe -- the GOP hasn't been a party of psychopaths my entire 50 years on the planet, but it certainly is now.

Where is the line for them?

Trump is already ripping healthcare away from millions, invading U.S. cities, defying courts, disappearing people to foreign countries, illegally firing federal workers, deliberately starving millions, and committing war crimes…

Do I have this correct? The Dems won big and immediately conceded power, yes? Please tell me there's some 11-dimension chess going on or something.

Hard to look at all the facts and not come to the conclusion that Dems are losing on purpose. I'm trying to be charitable but there's just nothing else coming to mind

My last read (left), my next read (right). Graham Greene has a lot to live up to.

All day, many of you have been asking for a Cheney obituary from me. Get ready:
His Works Completed, Dick Cheney, Mass Murderer of Iraqis and American Democracy, Dies

Over the years, I wrote a lot of nasty, terrible shit about Dick Cheney, who was a nasty, terrible shit himself. Here are some of the best.

That they're panicking over Mamdani instead is quite the tell.
Sure wish I could take even a bit of schadenfreude in watching right wing Jews panic over the increasing mainstreaming of open Nazis like Fuentes

Was honored to help @chana.bsky.social edit this deep dive compilation of Curtis Sliwa lore gathered over weeks. There is so much jaw-dropping material, we simply could not bear to make it shorter than 76 slides.
