MAGA: of course we should

Should we pay people to club police and poop on the floor while they’re trying to overthrow the government? You decide
Almost 400 people pardoned or granted clemency by President Donald Trump in connection with the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the US Capitol are now seeking millions of dollars in payouts from the federal government.

These assholes sit in a room determining tactics to anger and outrage the opposition and put fear into the lives of African-Americans.
I cannot believe this.

Any Simply Red playlist will give you an overall positive impression which could possibly grow into a fan thing. Maybe you know that already?

Some might want to play along. I’m nowhere close to being a movie guy but my first thought was Donald Sutherland. I think he is extraordinary. I’ll find other things to occupy myself. What 10 books would you bring is another avenue to agonize over.
A lot of people are naming huge movie stars but I think for the purpose of the prompt you want one of those "i will be in literally anything" workaholic character actors who have a really wide and varied filmography as a result. JK Simmons type guys
This is a Bill Simmons game, but you’re stranded on a desert island. You can only have one actor’s filmography. You get it all, including cameos. But just the one performer.

Worth a sanity check. These people are not one offs. They don’t necessarily dominate MAGA (?) but they probably have a quorum.
If you are not mortified by these MAGA parents saying they would not object if Trump used the military to execute their children, you are as brainwashed, dehumanized and deplorable as they are.

I don’t like that I’m thinking this way at all. In fact, I’m a little ashamed. But nonetheless: Mark Kelly could kick Pete Hegseth’s ass and then some, all the way down the street and back.
That is all.
That is all.
Good Tuesday Morning 💙
#Trump had a devastating start to his week and this too will likely end up not in his favor. Loser.
#MarkKelly is a true patriot 🇺🇸

Gotta love a dumb nurse. It appears that our constitution is holding in some places and ignored in many other places. Please watch.
🏥🚨🏥 Healthcare workers: Patient’s rights are being violated. A lot of people are adverse to standing up to “authority,” but we have codes of ethics - each of our professions do. Rise up! 1/2

What was the first LP you bought with your own money? This was mine. Purchased in the Fall of 1971. I was just 14 and a freshman in high school.
I had a ‘45 of Cat’s Wild World, loved it, and played it a lot.

Theorizing here. How many State Dinners or official government “balls” will be held in any given year? Not many. A ballroom will be its secondary purpose.

Can someone get in touch with Oprah who can call Stevie and ask him for another song about an awful president. This one fit the bill for the crazy off-the-rails prez and his co-conspiritors during all the fun in ‘74.
I was there and starting with Talking Book, I bought every Stevie album. GOAT!

Democrats should be drawing up legislation right now, this very minute, to bar Trump from helping himself to $230 million in taxpayer funds from DOJ. Challenge Republicans to hold a vote on it. Push this so hard in the media that every GOP Senate and House candidate is pressed to comment on it.
