This all sounds great, but will require multiple constitutional amendments and the Dems can’t even hold the line on a shutdown.
I’m thinking the Dems need to run on nothing less than remaking American democracy.

End Citizens United, totally reform the corrupt and broken SCOTUS, a new voting rights act, ban gerrymandering everywhere.

And give Trump figures who broke the law fair trials, and ban them from federal jobs.

The only currency that matters any longer is attention.

This (horrible!) move gets Disney a LOT of attention for a negligible amount of money. It’s as simple as that.

I'm currently working on the second #JasperDent mystery and the plot for the third one just belly-flopped into the murky pool of my brain. #amwriting

Just imagine if Donnie Dotterfukker was dealing with today's Epstein revelations ON TOP OF a government shutdown/air travel crisis.

That would have been nice, huh, @schumer.senate.gov ?

It’s always amazing to me when I’m at the MVA that the dude looks at my form as though he’s never seen such a thing in his life. My dude, you look at this all day. It’s YOUR form!

Democrats: We should talk about kitchen table issues.
the only thing democrats should be saying today is “the entire republican party is engaged in a coverup of the most notorious child sex trafficking ring in world history”

Weirdly, this is EXACTLY what my own wedding looked like!
Dave Cockrum was born today in 1943. His work at DC & Marvel in the 70s was SO exciting & helped reinvigorate 2 vital but moribund franchises,the Legion & the X-Men.

Oddly, the DC app only has the key wedding tale in Superboy & the LSH #200 in black’n’white. But the result is pure Cockrum artwork.

People have been speculating this is the case for years, ever since the David Niven Casino Royale. I'm honestly shocked that Horowitz doesn't know it.
Free idea: "James Bond" is a codename/a cover identity. There is no *real* "James Bond." It's an identity assigned by M. Simple fix that doesn't compromise continuity & makes all the different actors make canonical sense.
James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”

Anthony Horowitz, author of three 007 novels, says:

“You can't have him wake up in shower and saying it was all a dream."
