Hey, George? Someone talks to you like this, it's time to take the gloves off. Trump pardoned the former leader of another country. Lots of outlets covered this. That's wilful ignorance on his part. And "Our ratings are bad? Have you seen Trump's?"

FTR, TBH, IMHO, etc. - *You* *Chose* *This*. Cats are cats! (Ours does less furniture damage, but he's got his things we wish he didn't do, like chomping on my hand and putting me in the hospital for four days.)

Me three.

Yeah - FTR, squirrels are rarely carriers and rarely break skin when they do bite. In the 1920s, they were super popular as pets!

Let's get a pool going for when he's going to drop an n-bomb on camera. I have between 25 and 30 days from now.

Can't Johnson lose 3? Then it's 216-216 + JD Vance.

Me, similar situation: "Ummm, how do you spell that?"

Did he actually sign all of the pardons or did he use and autopen?

And passport lists different sex/gender than state ID. What's the average age on the court right now? Do they have no clerks under 50?

Trump hasn't been "here" for years.

My wife gets moist whenever Picard uses his "Voice if Command".

That doesn't look like the house at Two-Two Twain Street!

Great post, as usual, but needs a note of clarification: The DOJ had tons of evidence for all kinds of shit Agnew was doing. The tax evasion was just a quick deal to get him to go away quietly.

A little exaggerated, but people need to be more creative with their. At least, that's what your mom said when she rolled over this morning.

Looks like it did today in Oakland, CA.

Is that really his skull or just his asshat?

All Vance does is lie.

Yes. For now.
