Trump on Tim Walz: "I think the man is a grossly incompetent man. I thought that from the day I watched JD destroy him in the debate. I was saying, 'Who's more incompetent, that man or my man?' I had a man and he had a man. They were both incompetent."

David Simon, creator of ‘The Wire’, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR)
SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems... SIMON: What? SHAPIRO: ...Or saying... SIMON: You imagine that? SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over. SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level. SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this. SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

My statement on Donald Trump's threat to deport me and his praise for Eric Adams, who the President "helped out" of legal accountability.
The President of the United States just threatened to have me arrested, stripped of my citizenship, put in a detention camp and deported. Not because I have broken any law but because I will refuse to let ICE terrorize our city. His statements don’t just represent an attack on our democracy but an attempt to send a message to every New Yorker who refuses to hide in the shadows: if you speak up, they will come for you. We will not accept this intimidation. That Trump included praise for Eric Adams in his authoritarian threats is unsurprising, but highlights the urgency of bringing an end to this Mayor’s time in City Hall. At the very moment when MAGA Republicans are attempting to destroy the social safety net, kick millions of New Yorkers off of healthcare and enrich their billionaire donors at the expense of working families, it is a scandal that Eric Adams echoes this President’s division, distraction and hate. Voters will resoundingly reject it in November.

For the first time in my life I am actually worried about the deficit, thanks to, well, *gestures at the whole US economy*.
From Newsweek: Politico reported that numerous Senate lawmakers voiced hesitation about the bill as Senator Ron Johnson of Wisconsin said, "I'm hoping now we'll actually start looking at reality." Johnson's worry seems to be about potentially adding to the deficit as he elaborated, "I know everybody wants to go to Disney World, but we just can't afford it." The Wiscosin lawmaker also said that he could not be convinced by a threat to primary his seat over the bill.

Feels like I got blown out by a lot of bombs today (Ugin exiling my Stormplain Detainment with a Marang River Regent under it was the biggest for sure 😆). Finally managed a 7-2 though. Tawynback is gas, but casting Warden of the Grove into Naga Fleshcrafter (twice!) was probably MVP.

I called Schiff and Padilla yesterday and asked for no votes. Today I called thanking them and asking for Schumer's removal. It would be nice to have a minority leader with a spine.

If your senator said no to fascism today, call them and tell them that you expect them to move for the removal of Schumer as minority leader immediately.

This deep dive on Netflix purposely turning movies into barely distinguishable forgettable slop is so insightful, researched & brutally hilarious. A must read if you want to really know what’s happening to the business AND culture of movies.
