Here’s how I learned about the Venezuelan oil industry 30 years ago from MST3K. youtu.be/yTAcT3Hekp8?...

“Hegseth Commits Murder on the High Seas, At Will, With Full Approval of Senile Trump.”
There, I fixed all the headlines.
Using the military to commit murders is the best way to avoid wrinkling one’s tight suit and mussing one’s greasy hair.

I hope people aren’t surprised by our current situation. The Republicans have been on this corrupt, unethical path for the last 45 years.
They just needed the technology to catch up with their lust for money and power.
The Epstein Class indeed.

BERNIE ON THE *DEAL* with Centrist Dems: “That is a totally meaningless gesture. You can get 100 votes here and it won't mean anything because the House is not going to take it up.”

First, Trump pardoned the violent insurrectionists who beat cops.

Now, he pardons the key instigators of January 6th.

We need to see this for what it is:

An attempt to erase history, so it can be repeated.

This WH is doing everything it can to ensure millions go hungry.

I’m so angry about those 8 and Chuck Schumer (for being too weak to control the caucus) that I could spit nails.
The longest shutdown in history looks to be ending with no tangible plan for affordable healthcare—and Senate Dems who caved are the cause of it. @repritchie.bsky.social blasts their disappointing decision.

I swear to god, the democrats are going to turn me into an independent. After 50 years of being a registered Dem, I may have to make the switch. I gave up the Chargers when they left SD. I can become an Independent. #TheCowardly8

As I predicted.
Buried in the Big Beautiful Bill were changes to food assistance that demanded “any future change be cost-neutral. Translation: no more benefit increases, even if food prices skyrocket.”

The result was “institutionalized hunger.”

Democrats didn’t cave. They boxed republicans in and made them own the shutdown. Watch.

Part 2. They have code names because their real names are unintelligible to trump. He’s handed a sharpie and he is told to sign. He’s kept in the dark about the truth of the person or EO because his syphilitic brain is unable to process or retain the information needed to make rational decisions.

Part 1. I have no doubt that the majority of executive orders and pardons are handled the same way as today’s pardon of “the crypto guy.” trump’s handlers sit him at his desk, tell him the person he’s going to pardon did nothing wrong, but Biden hated him or he’s a loyal republican.

But where will Melania work now that the East Wing First Lady’s Offices are destroyed?
What is her pet project as First Lady 2.0? Last time it was “Be Best”, whatever that meant. I guess she’s been too busy with her meme coins to have come up with something as profound as “Be Best”. 🙄
