I note how Christian Nationalists, who think the public execution of Jesus was the most horrific thing humans ever did, are giddy at the prospect of getting to watch a public execution on live streaming—being so “pro-life” and all . . .

I don't take tips on virtue from a man who used a pic of his stillborn child for a GoFundMe campaign for his children's burial garden named "Lincoln’s Place" when the project was never built, and Ogles repeatedly refused to disclose what happened to the tens of thousands of dollars donated.

Wow!! Great response on the "Woodstein" coverage of Watergate. They did it all without Google or iPhones. Ford pardoned Nixon because he was worried about what it would do to this country. Now we know it didn't fall apart. der trumple's WH gang please note: Nixon's guys went to prison.

How not surprising that a president who acts like a petty mob boss is holding one of our nation’s treasured institutions hostage until we meet his conditions—that is, putting his stupid name on the building. I say we just put it in mothballs until he is gone.

Meanwhile in Ireland: The Trash Talker, pictured just off Dublin’s Grafton Street, is a beautiful street-art sculpture by Wexford artist TinKicker. It first appeared at a street-art festival in County Carlow and is now on display outside a city-centre gallery.

"There's an old saying in Tennessee—I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee—that says, fool me once, shame on— shame on you. Fool me—you can't get fooled again." —George W. Bush, the *second* dumbest president ever.

James Talarico @jamestalarico.bsky.social is simply 1 of the greatest, most inspirational candidates to emerge in years, running against Ken Paxton, one of the most disgracefully corrupt politicians of all-time. So the Texas GOP responds by doing what comes naturally to them, of course: CHEATING! 🤮

18 U.S. service members dead. 757 wounded. Pentagon numbers, updated last week. Ignorant Lutnick’s take this morning: the Iran war is “just an economic chokeout.” He didn’t misspeak. He just doesn’t think the bodies count if the bond market’s happy. No deaths, he said. Tell that to the families.

When you’re too stupid to realize that universal healthcare is about providing healthcare to people for free (other than their taxes), not making doctors work without compensation.

Lisa McClain questions why El-Sayed's wife doesn't treat patients for free if he's really a supporter of universal healthcare 🤔

REMINDER: Mitch McConnell hasn’t been seen or heard from in now 73 days. Yet he still: •Has his job •Gets paid, and •Gets free world-class healthcare The man who voted against a living wage, against universal healthcare, & against guaranteed paid leave—gets all three as he needs it most.😐

In a world full of the destructive kookiness of people like RFK Jr, strive to fill it with a little of the restorative kindness of Dolly Parton.

Call me crazy, but perhaps being related to a Senator who died doesn’t qualify you to be a Senator.

Delta Airlines charging me for my bag? That's obnoxious. Delta Airlines charging me to book a seat? That's obnoxious. But Delta Airlines working with ICE to ship people to concentration camps is COLLABORATION. Boycot #delta

Today’s Civics Lesson Dr. Fauci honoring a congressional subpoena and then taking the Fifth Amendment: an example of someone respecting both Congress and the Constitution. Jim Jordan ignoring a congressional subpoena: an example of someone showing contempt for Congress. Lesson over.

It says something unflattering about our country that so many Americans are not concerned that the nation’s president is a money launderer who rapes both adults and children.
