Oh they don’t like the whistles? Hey everyone, they don’t like the whistles. If you use them it makes the armed goons sad.
Kristi Noem is mad that protesters are blowing whistles at ICE agents.

I don't know if the Epstein vote is a one-off or not, but I've been thinkin of that very thin, translucent sticker film that comes when you order, say, a new monitor. It's devilishly hard to get the first little bit of the corner to separate but once you do, the entire thing pulls off very easily.

"class" bwahaha
"We are hearing the administration say they intend to investigate various Dems who were friends with Epstein. I beg you President Trump -- please stop making this political. It is not about you. Show some class. I voted for you, but your behavior on this issue has been a national embarrassment."

In April 2009, the Washington Post asked 10 writers to make the case for something that deserves to be tossed out as part of "spring cleaning."

I chose Larry Summers.

Better late than never.

whatever you think about the British royal family, it's pretty striking that Andrew, eighth in line to the throne, has been publicly humiliated and stripped of his titles and honors while Lawrence Summers is still University Professor at Harvard

At this moment in time, this is where I hope we can come down on MGT. She has a long road to rehab. But I think that this is the right way. And that's the direction I'm leaning. Reserving the right to change my mind and go all "General Sherman in Atlanta" again.
She's going to have to row this boat by herself for a long time before I'm climbing in. But doesn't the theory go that everyone deserves a second chance? What are we to do with all of maga willing to come in out of the crazy? When apartheid ended, South Africans agreed to just move forward. Can we?

Hey ... Potential followers: if your profile says anything like "servant of Jesus" and all your skeets are narcissistic selfies of some overly made up chick with duck lips? You're getting blocked. So don't bother ok?

The fact that Summers remained so popular after questioning the intellectual abilities of women is really a pretty harsh indictment of US society as a whole and particularly the elite circles Summers travels in, and Democrats should have kicked him to the curb for that shit.

I know the real concern is the lack of journalistic integrity but I think the real crime here is seeing this face and thinking to yourself "yes I need more of that" His eyes don't even line up. This is a clear case of royals inbreeding

I’m delighted Jim Ryan set fire to the BOV and other complicit jerks. And I’m willing to grant him a chance at reputation restoration. But I’m not willing to canonize him as many seem willing to. He has lots to atone for and so until he demonstrates he isn’t the same old Jim, miss me with all that.

Why YES, thanks for asking. Still in need of $$ for immigration bond fund. It's often the last hope before ICE/HSI whisks our neighbors to Timbuktu or wherever. Also please consider amplifying this skeet. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER :D mailchi.mp/b8519fa7024f...

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

Fresh from their six-week paid vacation, Speaker Johnson finally swore in Congresswoman Adelita Grijalva. A majority of the House has signed the discharge petition for full release of the Epstein File. Let’s vote.

Yes. All too well. That image is seared into my mind for all time.
Remember 25 years ago when a photo was taken of a fed pointing a gun at a crying refugee child and the image was so shameful it dominated the news cycle for a year
