The party wont go to its own fuckin party. First time in years a midterm get together has happened jeff.
So we are talking about a bunch of asswads who are too cowardly to admit that they can’t leave the safety of their own homes to pay hommage to the Prancing Throbbing AssGod. Because the house of cards they built is falling the fuck apart.
It's so weird this morning that I only found out about her death from several newsletters by women in my email. It's not being mentioned by male political newsletters or put up top by "mainstream" media. Or maybe it's not weird. Maybe it's a clear sign of how much what she achieved is being undone.
I don't have TV. All my news is online. I subscribe to about two dozen media newsletters, both independent and mainstream (I don't subscribe to the latter's actual papers, just their newsletter update.)
Oh, the Ballroom is a gift to America? Ok, I'd like to hold my anniversary dinner and celebration there. Who do I contact to set this up? Thank you for your attention to this matter. HH
I hope the next president immediately guts the ballroom and, if the space can't be demolished, turns it back into offices or maybe some kind of historical center about the presidency. The whole thing makes no sense. A. it's unlikely to be completed before Trump leaves office B. there are almost no events at the White House requiring such a massive ballroom. You don't throw huge parties there which would be a security nightmare.
There might be security problems with that, which I thought of it terms of a visitor center/museum as well. But at least you could screen ticket holders. Kids coming and going would be a virtual impossibility.
tRump envisions himself at a huge gala surrounded by a multitude of oligarchs heaping praise and adulation on him… and after that, he’ll be quite bored with it.
Did the Supreme Court know the ballroom was also a "Military complex" when they okay'd? Did they knowingly give him a bunker to hunker down in with the nuclear codes when we try to oust him from office?
I truly see now how Hitler came to power, and millions of Germans just let it happen. I literally don't know what to do other than be so fucking angry and helpless, watching this "shit kazoo" ruin what shreds of decency this country ever had. It wasn't perfect but it was more than this.
Beyond appalling. The blood oath to Project 2025 by Congress and 6 members of SCOTUS must have been chilling. They are locked in on the destruction of America and Putin is pleased as punch.
Elon Musk did not and cannot hack any "software." There is nothing hackable in elections systems. Let's not us descend to their level of conspiracy theory, OK?
Yes, I agree.A large part of this country is suffering from daily anger and outrage and yes, with a sense of helplessness thrown in.Really it is a form of PTSD. We have got to vote in such ginormous numbers in November that there can be no doubt who won.Then we must hold these fuckers accountable.
This definitely means the Straits of Schrödinger are openclosed!
Wow Xi and Putin must just be sitting back and laughing their asses off. This is an amazing cherry on top of Putin being able to leverage Americans' bigotries against them to bring a 34x felonious con man sex pest into unitary control of government (along with his bought and paid unreconstructed party).
Trump may have wanted to destroy all the artwork he's removed, but i'm betting things are ending up in the private collections of his buddies. Even this sculpture. He has also cut down 40 weeping willows from the Kennedy Center. I fear the bulldozers are coming.
This cowardly, afraid to point out the obvious, language in the story from CNBC really got to me: "It was not immediately clear how the president would attempt to implement a name change in the strait, which is not near the U.S." Not immediately clear? How about a snowball's chance in hell?
today in Shit That Happened While I Was Busy Writing This Shit—
"Gloria Steinem, Personification of the Women’s Movement, Dies at 92"

Also, Im crying that Steinem is gone.
“The party wont go to its own fuckin party.”

NYT did report it. We owe her so much.
Oh, they all "reported" it. But it's not a headline story.
CNN has been reporting it all morning as their top news story.
I don't have TV. All my news is online. I subscribe to about two dozen media newsletters, both independent and mainstream (I don't subscribe to the latter's actual papers, just their newsletter update.)
I found out via an NBC News alert
Anybody see Mitch lately? I heard he was at Kroger in the very back of the walk in cooler… resting comfortably.
I have a 20-minute call scheduled with him later.
Can you ask him to put it on Zoom so he can hold up today's Washington Post? That one from 2 months ago was so convincing!
From last month:
Did Turtle Man go bye-bye
To that great shell in the sky
Or as some wags allege
Mitch is now just a veg
Either one is a big GOP lie
You have a skill - and I ain't no shill!
Yeah, in two weeks.
Hope he defrosts in time for the call.
Priceless
I'm fine with this. They're down a vote until they replace him.
🤣🤣🤣
Funny how ‘we moved on’… 😠
😂 good one!!

Someone has suggested making it a community center for kids around DC. If we can't bulldoze it, I think that would be a lovely idea!

It's all good until a falling chandelier kills someone due to shoddy construction

Since DonOld has become nothing but a glorified Event Planner I would assume he'd be in charge of all events held there.
LOL!!

So agree! Then you have the "Gestapo" being given shock gloves, while the original Gestapo only had cattle prods.
And didn't wear masks.
Beyond appalling. The blood oath to Project 2025 by Congress and 6 members of SCOTUS must have been chilling. They are locked in on the destruction of America and Putin is pleased as punch.
VOTE That's what you can do.
Yes, and in overwhelming numbers, to make the outcome elon-proof from his software hacking and diddling.
Elon Musk did not and cannot hack any "software." There is nothing hackable in elections systems. Let's not us descend to their level of conspiracy theory, OK?
Yes, I agree.A large part of this country is suffering from daily anger and outrage and yes, with a sense of helplessness thrown in.Really it is a form of PTSD. We have got to vote in such ginormous numbers in November that there can be no doubt who won.Then we must hold these fuckers accountable.
There is already a high-security bunker under the White House. The entire project is superfluous.
The one under the White House that Obama built is no where big enough for Donnie and all his oligarch friends…
It was ahem built by a black man. Donnie doesn’t want to set foot in it…
Yes. They did.
All the wrong people are dying. I've lost all faith in cholesterol and lack of exercise.
100% chance they place a gold sumpin’ there. Just trash the place.
Also, RIP the astonishing Ms. Gloria Steinem.
This definitely means the Straits of Schrödinger are openclosed!

There's nothing he won't try to take
A nation, a trophy, a lake
Preznit P-grabber
and his bullshit blabber
Is the biggest idiot-loser-fake
Time for Donnie’s straight jacket of Hormuz.
Once the blonde devotee was spotted
The old lecher was instantly besotted
But his handlers were shocked
Is he being stalked?
Or just being honey-potted?
I hate the way trump makes a fist. The fact that they made a statue of him with his lame ass fist in the air is just so stupid.
They're trying to hide the fact that his hands are devastatingly tiny.
Dolly and now Gloria. Amazing women…the best of the best are gone…
…and the piece of crud is still here. *weep*
That’s exactly what I said when I heard the news about Steinem. 😟
Trump may have wanted to destroy all the artwork he's removed, but i'm betting things are ending up in the private collections of his buddies. Even this sculpture. He has also cut down 40 weeping willows from the Kennedy Center. I fear the bulldozers are coming.
Trump Strait? How about Trump Crooked? 🤔
The Strait of STFU You LSOS

you know Google has probably already renamed it just to ensure they get their data centre funding
Unbelievable.
Hey Jeff! In that first pick of our dose of Claudia, you look like John Lennon! 😎
Jerry Garcia.
Good point.
Not as chubby.
