So, for dinner I just ate two thin turkey burgers on wheat bread with vegan cheese (trying to cut back on dairy) and bok choi sauteed in the wok with grape seed oil (not beef tallow). Suck it, sewer boy. Your new food pyramid is garbage.

A full inventory of all that this president has done (none of which is a flex, by the way). Print it. Save it to your phone. Keep it handy to remind people as necessary, especially those who voted for this and don't yet have buyer's remorse.

MAGA’s Foundational Lie
The movement claims to stand with the police. Trump’s decision to pardon the cop-beaters of January 6 exposed his movement for what it is.

For the next episode of "Why I Think the Roberts Court Is Evil."

"The Constitution of the Roberts Court is not color-blind. It is a Constitution that permits discrimination on the basis of race, but forbids alleviating discrimination on the basis of race."

This man may be the most racist president this country has ever had, and twelve presidents owned slaves
Trump: "It’s a hellhole right now. And those Somalians should be out of here. They've destroyed our country. And all they do is complain, complain, complain. You have her. She’s always talking about the Constitution provides me with – go back to your own country and figure out your constitution."

I need the left to focus now. With no power, this was the least shitty deal the Dems were going to get. People of lesser means were really feeling pain and SCOTUS was not likely to help. We, the voters did our part to get us to this point. Fume, primary, whatever, but be at the polls on 11/3/26.

As we head into another Veterans Day, consider these young people and these additional struggles they now face. Being in the military is hard enough. You sign up to defend your country, not whatever the hell this is.

I encourage you to listen to this episode of this podcast. It's very informative in terms of how we got where we are (and how we can get out), specifically on SCOTUS, labor, and Silicon Valley. (Under an hour)

While the breakup of two childish billionaires may be fun to watch, and it is, don't lose sign of the fact that neither of them is on your side, and are in fact working overtime to help their rich buddies at the expense of all of us.

Just one of the many reasons I hate CNN.
Turned on CNN three times yesterday while running errands. First time was in the middle of a segment about Biden's age. Second time they were airing a promo for Tappers book, which is about Biden's age. Third time was during a panel discussion -- about Biden's age.
