I've always hated Larry Summers for his awful neoliberal views and how he moved Clinton and ultimately Obama to the right on economic matters. Not surprised that he was pulling a Dershowitz with Epstein. Fuk him.

'As Politico first reported, the language of the provision was provided by Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD), but according to the WaPo, it was “part of an agreement” between Thune and Senate Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer (D-NY). @schumer.senate.gov must resign now.

Words I never expected to hear in America. "A third of the church is Hispanic, and many Catholic families are fearful of going to Mass, worried that they will be apprehended by officials with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement." STOP the American Gestapo. #ICE

Racist asshole, James Watson has died. He never credited the woman who actually discovered the structure of DNA and was ultimately abandoned by the scientific community for his crackpot beliefs.

The @nytimes.com cannot help itself. On the eve of the election they are still taking digs at Mamdani. I've yet to see a long series of articles and op eds on Trump's clearly deteriorating mental conditions, his inability to complete a sentence and his history of mini-strokes. But hey Mamdani...

Ross, nobody takes you seriously. Proselytize all you want about the Dems "need" to move to the right. Why would any sane Dem or rational mind care for your recipe for Dem failure. You hate us and want us to lose. We hate you and never take advice from enemy fools. Now fuk off!

I see intelligent analysts constantly wondering "why is DJT doing this." DJT doesn't do anything, he's a festering ulcer of uncontrolled ID. Here's the culprit-a Nazi self-hating Jew is now the most powerful asshole in the country. Stephen Goebbels Miller. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

[] the only thing predictable about Mr. Trump’s handling of global affairs is that it will be an unpredictable mix of instinct, grievance and ego. And there is little evidence that his tantrums, swerves and reversals are strategic and thought-out. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/26/u...

And in other stupid news about a stupid state doing what "Dear Leader" demands, wacko AG Ken Paxton is conducting a show trial just cause...well the boss seems to like it. The idiocy is killing me.

I'm no fan of the #Cowboys, in fact I am one of the haters. I watched the @netflix.com documentary and was astounded. Jerry Jones is no football genius but the team gets more mediocre while its valuation has gone up from 165 million to 13 billion. Rewarding failure. www.netflix.com/watch/817269...

"The number of measles cases hit a 34-year high this summer, largely driven by the so-called “Southwest outbreak,” which grew to more than 880 cases across Texas, New Mexico and Oklahoma." Republicans will let their children die so Dear Leader can have a Kennedy in the administration. #Brainworm

“I was...held there for 100 days, during which I remained handcuffed and blindfolded. Many died in detention, others lost their minds. Some had limbs amputated. They suffered sexual and physical abuse. They brought dogs that urinated on us." Just like Nazis. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/o...

The @nytimes.com editorial board giving political advice to Democrats is like taking financial advice from Jeffrey Epstein. You are not paying for a college dropout's expertise on complicated legal matters but for his silence. They deserve the "Joe Manchin Award" for simple-minded analysis.

“He repeatedly choked me until I lost consciousness and took pleasure in seeing me in fear for my life. Horrifically, the Prime Minister laughed...emerged from the cabana bleeding from my mouth, vagina, and anus. For days, it hurt to breathe and to swallow,” Giuffre on Israel's Ehud Barak.

And why exactly am I supposed to give a fuck about this? The world is in flames and the @nytimes.com wants me to know on the front page that some rocks were stolen while millions of people die. Get. Your. Fucking. Priorities. Straight. We are living with Fascism.
