My middle-age era. Full of snark. Too tired for your bullshit. Buffalove for 🍊 Orangemen. But never THAT orange man. Former policy wonk. Still love cake. Mental health matters. Antifa.
Okay, who's got a concise summary of everything (okay not everything-everything, just the bullet points of law changes) in that trash funding bill?

@matthewkeys.net Help me with something real quick, while my "cancel subscription" finger is working overtime today: Who owns Philo? Wasn't it investors from all the major networks? Who still has money at stake there?

Brendan Carr gives NO FUCKS about his job. What a POS.
I have never in my life covered an FCC official that gives less of a fuck about the public interest

even first term FCC boss Ajit Pai, who was a complete revolving door hack, believed this sort of censorship crossed a line
FABER: I wonder whether you're just targeting comedians who are offending the president

BRENDAN CARR: Broadcast TV is different. If you have broadcast TV license, it comes with an obligation to serve the public interest.

A hearty GO FUCK YOURSELF to Juan Merchan, who could've avoided this whole fucking disaster by just throwing his ass in prison where it belonged.

This whole thread is truly ... 😳
This tweet from @brianstelter.bsky.social reminded me:

I have FCC Chairman Brendan Carr's cell phone number — because the FCC accidentally revealed it in response to a FOIA request. (They forgot to redact it.)

I sent him a text for comment.

reminder: Jimmy Kimmel is enough of a mensch that he devised a segment on which actors who are just short of having enough work to qualify for union healthcare come on his show and deliver a single line of dialogue

It's so predictable at this point.
Ending tonight with another predictable story around folks who spend their time terrorizing queer children. Is *anyone* surprised by this? We could build a predictive model with just one line of code.

If you have a favorite zealot-to-predator story post it below.

You know it.
Good ol waste of space DNC.
Millions upon millions of Americans demonstrating on the streets today.

The national Democratic Party will seize on the energy by calling for increased police funding and more military aid to Israel.

Snort.
I missed that Jeff Bezos sold the Post to Donald Trump directly.
Planes roared over D.C. on Saturday, tanks rolled along the National Mall, brass bands resounded and thousands of soldiers marched past cheering crowds, as the Army put on the largest show of military might in the capital in more than three decades. wapo.st/4dYFOck

WHAT THE FUCK!

(x10 volume) WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK
Things are getting tense at the Federal Building in downtown LA. Marines are confronting protesters and pushing them off the steps at the front.

Blatantly illegal use of the military against protesters on US soil.

EIGHT MILES!!

(And no one showed up to the King's birthday party.)
Thousands of peaceful protesters have lined the road for over 8 continuous miles just outside of Washington DC right now!

They did not vote for a king and they are well aware that Trump is trying to cut off their health care benefits to give tax breaks to him and his billionaire donors friends.

The NYT is a RAG.
How the mighty have fallen.
I'm sorry but the largest protest of my lifetime is not the 7th or 8th biggest news story in the country behind "what does Gen Z want from Instagram?" This shit is humiliating. Rearrange your layout to meet this moment. Omitting the thing happening in every American city is malpractice.

Someone explain to me why any Democrat voted for "no tax on tips". Let alone, EVERY Democrat.
I mean, WTAF‽ Such a disaster.

Seriously. This guy was milquetoast from the jump.
DNC is truly rudderless. And spineless.
Ken Martin is Merrick Garland

Capable, experienced, unable to grasp what is needed, & w/the appropriate urgency and outward communication skills

He is the wrong choice for the Trump era.

We need a communicating fighter.

A modern DNC demands more.

@kenmartin.bsky.social should resign

I would follow Bill Kristol and David Brooks into political battle before Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries and I was writing blog posts 18 years ago about what a despicable human Kristol was. So that's where we are.

The Democratic Party needs to be purged badly. It should never have come to this.

THIS is exactly why we're pissed, and wanted the government shut the fuck down.
Multiple senior GOP sources in both chambers on the Hill and within the Trump administration were quick to blab to Rolling Stone about how thrilled they were at Schumer’s willingness to cave.

THIS.
Stop legislating/campaigning by poll. TALK TO REAL PEOPLE.
Obama won an election by 10 points in which a majority of voters said he was too liberal. In multiple polls, voters have rated Bernie as more moderate than Kamala Harris. I don’t know how anyone takes a “moderate or liberal” poll seriously
From Echelon insights, a large plurality of Democrats think Democrats should get more moderate to win the 2028 Presidential election and also the vast vast majority of Democrats want to get more combative.

yes people should call capitol hill but you really shouldnt have to lobby the democratic party to vote against funding a coup.

Every single Democrat who votes with Republicans, really on anything at all from here on out, consider your head on the chopping block. The people WILL revolt.
