Over an hour wait for a bus with supposed 15 minute headways during rush hour? Disappointing @wmata continues to neglect vital commuter bus services for civil servants at federal office centers.

And tonight I tried to get home from work on the D74. The driver (bus 7061 or 7064) went the wrong way at DuPont Circle and continued to drive south to 17th and H then stopped. Two days in a row @wmata.com I’m stranded trying to get home from work on the “better bus line” instead of 42/43.
@wmata.com definition of better bus service. It’s 5:01pm on a route that has 15 minute headways and your next bus will be here in…42 minutes. So much for federal workers by Potomac Park. Another slap in the face eliminating the 42/43.

There are only three political positions in America today

1) I like the fascism

2) I'll acquiesce to the fascism (reasons for this one vary: cowardice, access, denial, misguidedly thinking that acquiescence is savvy, etc)

3) I oppose the fascism

The rest is details

Bombing Iran is a great way to distract from how your administration is bombing elsewhere.

This is well stated. Mike Lee will forever be associated in my mind with his unbelievably cruel and stupid tweets about the Hortman assassination. He is a disgrace to the Senate and Utah.
A top staffer to Sen. Tina Smith emailed Sen. Mike Lee’s top staffers on Monday about “how much additional pain you’ve caused on an unspeakably horrific weekend”

House Democrats need to bring articles of impeachment against Kristi Noem, while Senate Democrats need to bring that chamber to a fucking halt.

Trump on Oct 1, 2024, saying that we are on the brink of WWIII and a “global catastrophe” because Iran just launched missiles at Israel, which never would’ve happened if he was president.

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

A "significant share" of companies surveyed by the Federal Reserve said they raised the prices of goods and services unaffected by tariffs.

One company said they did this to "enjoy the extra margin before tariffs increased their costs."

See the problem here? www.axios.com/2025/06/04/t...
Businesses are raising prices after tariffs, even on unaffected goods
This could be a sign that companies are using the new tariffs as an excuse to raise prices overall.

I can’t believe the media covered up the fact that a clear mental incompetent was running the government while out of his mind on drugs, despite it being widely known in DC circles, to preserve their access to the White House. There should be huge recriminations for this.

The total lack of concern or awareness from these people that they have just participated in unprecedentedly illegal, unconstitutional, destructive activities that have killed people & dismantled essential public functions suggests they are not only arrogant & ignorant schmucks, but also sociopaths.
What a way to describe a 4-month period that will lead to 25+ million deaths worldwide.
