I don't know who needs to hear this but NOTHING WILL MAGICALLY CHANGE IF YOUR LEAST FAVORITE DEMOCRAT LEAVES CONGRESS.
Republicans will still be the majority: The White House, Congress, and the Supreme Court. Because that's what white voters chose. We gave them full control.
Only we can undo it.

I really enjoyed this excerpt when I stumbled across it. Then I enjoyed @dj-acid-reflux.bsky.social's photo threads with their astonishing alt text even more. So now I'm buying his book.

This is the Villager extract which keeps bring new readers to the book.
It's not for everyone, and that's ok. I didn't write it for everyone. I wrote it for me. I don't expect (nor want) the book to ever be huge. But it's nice to have a few new readers.

To a similar question the other day, I answered Francis's giant bathtub from Pee-Wee's Big Adventure.
Still that, but for the sake of variety, I'll add: I *love* aquamarines. Partly for the color, partly because they come in delightfully tacky giant sizes. There are a couple things I would buy.

This video falsely claims to show US strikes on the Fort Tiuna military site in Venezuela this morning.
In fact, it shows Iranian missile strikes on Israel during the 12-day war in June.

But the clip dates back to October 2024, and shows Iranian missile strikes on the Nevatim air base in Israel.

This is an AI-manipulated version of a real video of the US military operation in Venezuela.
While the real clip does appear to be genuine, this specific version has been manipulated using Grok to add dramatic explosions and strikes.

This widely shared post, which claims to show Venezuelans celebrating the fall of Nicolas Maduro in Venezuela, is false.
The video was actually filmed in Miami, Florida, and not in Venezuela.

Since day one, the Trump Administration has remained laser focused on attacking independent agencies like the CFPB because they work for the American people – not the President.
I will keep fighting against this unlawful federal overreach and keep winning.
