He's undoubtedly planning the Mother of all Distractions but can't think of anything to top flying over a city in a crown dropping poo on American citizens.

Real quick just want to remind everyone that Graham Linehan is a deranged bigot
Graham Linehan ruined his own life by walking down a path of hatred but forgetting to first become a billionaire writing beloved children’s books and THEN walking down a path of hatred

I served with the National Guard in Afghanistan.

American cities are not “training grounds.”

What a disgusting concept.
Trump to top military officials: "I told Pete, we should use some of these dangerous cities as training grounds for our military. National Guard, but our military. Because we're going into Chicago very soon. That's a big city with an incompetent governor. Stupid governor."

Watched Stand By Me with the 12 year old for his first time on Friday night. He really dug it; kind of the perfect age. Tonight he asked if he was ready for It. As stressed as he was with the bridge scene, he’s most definitely not ready for It.

There is literally no Western politician alive that I can think of that has incited more hate, bigotry, and violence than Donald Trump.

That so many in our public life, in our 'liberal' media, have just memory-holed 10 years of nonstop incitement and abuse from him is shameful.

If I have any credibility with you from 20 years of reporting on rightwing & fascist movements, please listen when I beg you not to celebrate Charlie Kirk getting shot. Leave aside morality: this isn’t a match in dry grass, it’s a torch. We do not want what this could ignite & we would not win.

As a mom whose kids just lost their dad to a virus-related cancer, I agree with you.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Happy b’day, “Pet Sounds” — released by The Beach Boys today in 1966 and a groundbreaking influence in music. 🎂

“I bought my kids each a copy of it for their education in life,” Paul McCartney once said. “I figure no one is educated musically until they’ve heard this album.”

ah, an exactly wrong take

the reason mon mothma becomes the figurehead of the rebel alliance and that the alliance gets catalyzed is because Ghorman protesters are radicalized and armed and pushed into accelerationist action by a terrorist leader

this isn't subtext it's text
It's very to me that the show makes clear that it's not the radicals who win the war in the end but the very reluctant moderates who want the Republic back.

Could you imagine if the head of the United States healthcare system didn’t believe that HIV caused AIDS?

…And that instead they believed that AIDS is caused by recreational drugs (“poppers”) used by gay people?

Oh wait…🥴
