Watch Duty is a free app that shows wildfires across the west. It sends alerts that could be lifesaving. They intend to expand coverage nationwide.
I highly suggest and recommend downloading the app and supporting their mission.

from Wednesday's post: the Secretary of Stupid, Piss-Drunk Pete Kegstand, basically ordered our military to commit more war crimes, and then Little Donny Fuckface got up and blithered incoherently, because of course he did. please read the whole thing — link is here: bit.ly/3KOoHiU

NEW VIDEO: “Protecting Pedophiles for Tax Cuts.” Exploring Republicans’ eagerness to shield adults who rape children in order to ensure the GOP can continue to give billionaires tax cuts, take away healthcare from ordinary Americans, and kidnap refugees. Glory!

Q: What's your response to Speaker Johnson saying that Democrats want to give health care to people who are here illegally?

Sen. Warren: It's a lie. He is lying about this is because no Republican wants to face what they have done. They are taking away health care for millions of Americans

Q: Are you in favor of extending the ACA subsidies?

GOP Senator: I'm not. It is not a good idea to extend it. We don't deny the fact there are increases coming in health care costs and insurance premiums.

In the history of mealymouthed disingenuousness in American politics, few have come even close to this annoying puritanical pixie.

STEPHANOPOULOS: Hold on a second. Answer the question. As Speaker, do you believe it's appropriate to use American cities as training grounds for the military, calling those people 'the enemy within'?

JOHNSON: I'm not comment on your characterization of what the president said.

S: Those are quotes

But, the bottom line is that we rule our government, not the other way around. And Trump is weak. That is why he is lashing out. Jimmy Kimmel is on the air everywhere, DHS admitted wrongdoing in NYC, and everyone is pointing out how weak and embarrassing this Comey indictment is.
Trump the tyrant is on full display — but his acting out highlights how weak he is
Trump got his Comey indictment Thursday and issued a memo directing "domestic terrorism" investigations. And yet, both provided more evidence that Trump is losing.

AS DING-DONG DONNY KEEPS HALLUCINATING ABOUT HOW HE AND WHAT'S-HER-NAME NARROWLY ESCAPED BEING
"ESCALATORED" TO BITS, A FOREIGN DIPLOMAT ASKED, AREN'T WE EMBARRASSED BY OUR DIPSHIT PRESIDENT? I ANSWER THE QUESTION VERY POWERFULLY IN TODAY'S POST. THANK YOU FOR READING, LINK IS HERE: bit.ly/4pC3clD
EscalatorGate™ is now in its third day and shows no sign of abating — and in typical Donny carnival-barker style, the story of how an escalator briefly turned into stairs gets more outlandish with each retelling. the escalator going up to the Main Speaking Floor came to a screeching halt. It stopped on a dime. It’s amazing that Melania and I didn’t fall forward onto the sharp edges of these steel steps, face first. that’s right, Melania came this close to a brush with the United Nations’ patented Whirling Blades of Death. as we discussed yesterday, no one was ever in any danger — but by next week, Donny’s going to be telling us that his Slovenian rent-a-wife had to somersault past laser beams — which, by the way, is a thing she can do because of the ninja training she received, while also learning to speak five languages (none of them English).

here's one of my favorite passages from today's post, about Day Three of Donny's whiny tantrum over an escalator that turned into stairs. you can read it in all its glory here: bit.ly/4pC3clD
dear lord, what a fucking snowflake. a snowflake like no one’s even seen before. maybe the flakiest snowflake of all time. grow the fuck up, bro. do you think Teddy Roosevelt would have been spooked by an escalator? absolutely not. just look at this homey. T-Rose would have punched the shit out of those balky autostairs.

let's get real: James Comey FUCKING SUCKS and isn't our friend. but that doesn't mean we shouldn't all be HORRIFIED that Donny Convict is using the government to persecute his political enemies — because the fuckery doesn't stop with Comey. who will be next? please read my post here: bit.ly/3Ii1zsv
I detest this guy for what he did to the email lady in 2016. James Comey is not our friend — but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t all stand with Comey when he’s the victim of fucked-up fascism on steroids. let Comey find his comeuppance in a way that doesn’t shred our system of justice.

all you people saying that Comey is "getting what he deserves," what are you going to say when it's Adam Schiff and Letitia James? because make no mistake, that's who Donny is coming for next. this isn't about Comey, or what you think of him

WHAT A LOSER! LINDSEY "KOMPROMAT? WHAT KOMPROMAT?" GRAHAM COMPARED DONALD TRUMP TO PT BARNUM AND RONNIE REAGAN — AND THOUGHT THAT WAS A *GOOD* THING. I COVER THIS AND ALL THE DUMBFUCKIEST SHIT THAT HAPPENED IN "THIS WEEK IN STUPID." THANK YOU READING MY TREMENDOUS POST HERE: bit.ly/4pR8pWP
I’ll give Old Linz credit for this, though: describing Dear Leader as a cross between the carny barker who would scam you out of your last nickel and the former president who was so senile that his wife (and her astrologer) were secretly running the county is actually super fucking accurate.

from today's post: Donny had to walk up a stuck escalator and the entirety of MAGA lost their fucking minds, because they're all whiny diaperload toddlers who see every minor inconvenience as proof of a nefarious plot against Dear Leader. thanks for reading my post, which is here: bit.ly/46RsFQl
here’s why it’s a big deal: Dear Leader was slightly inconvenienced for an entire thirty seconds — so naturally, the cultists completely lost their shit. “The second that escalator stopped, bullets should been flying at the UN staffers who orchestrated this attack, rendering our President a sitting duck.” what a great idea. let’s just start spraying bullets in all directions, before anyone even has a chance to figure out what the fuck just happened. what could possibly go wrong? Fox News found object Jesse Watters has a more nuanced suggestion: why waste bullets, when we have bombs? “this was an insurrection … what we need to do is either leave the UN or bomb it.” oh, please. could you people get over yourselves? it was a minor glitch. just give that escalator the Nobel Peace Prize it so richly deserves and move on. but no, we can’t move on. we live in the stupidest possible timeline, so we have to turn a stopped escalator into an international incident. “If someone at the UN intentionally stopped the escalator as the President and First Lady were stepping on, they need to be fired and investigated immediately.” you fucking snowflakes. investigated for what? what’s the crime, Grand Theft Thirty Seconds?

someone cancelled their subscription to my newsletter yesterday because I "swear too much" and I'm like hello, is this your first day on the internet
wonkette.bsky.social Rebecca Schoenkopf @wonkette.bsky.social · Sep 24
Reasons people have canceled their Wonkette subscriptions this week: because we're "obsessed" with Gaza (actually mention it shamefully too little), "which is a hoax," and because we're anti-Woody Allen, who was "consenting adults." (Not consenting adults.)

Y'all weird. Anyway!
