The ultimate closer.

Construction starts in two weeks.

I will always be grateful to Mr. Green Jeans for introducing me to peanut butter on toast. IYKYK

The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased. Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power. Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable. But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless. Remember this.

"The idea that this hub, built over decades, was significantly degraded in the space of a few days by a regional player is unimaginable. "That the US could not prevent and defend against a predictable attack on a Fleet Headquarters is quite startling." www.militarytimes.com/opinion/2026...

I really cannot think of a greater honor than to have the Muppets say this about you upon your passing

Dolly gifted $1 million to Vanderbilt to support the development of the Covid vaccine. She always loved us.

Make the world a better place. Be like Dolly.

Dolly took a video of herself getting the Covid vaccine. www.politico.com/news/2026/08...

It was only five months ago that China averted disaster by rejecting contaminated beef from Argentina. On March 19, 2026, Chinese authorities turned away a 22-ton shipment after detecting chloramphenicol. With serial-lying psychopath Trump as president, God help us.😒

I just saw a dog wearing a leash that said “Selectively Social” and now I need to find a necklace version of it for myself.

Please don't overreact to Roberts Court decision on the contemplated USPS ballot moves They simply held that the injunction came too early in the process, before there was a final rule👇 Now we HAVE a final rule & we will litigate it. I'm as confident in our arguments here as in any of our cases!

Food companies wanted deregulation. Now there are dozens of recalls across the country. Mining companies wanted deregulation. Now the black lung rate is at a 45-year high. Financial companies wanted deregulation. Now financial losses to fraud are the highest on record. Noticing a pattern?

Salary of executive assistant Natalie Harp: $150,000 a year. Average salary of a sailor on the USS Lincoln: ~ $50,000 a year.

Private equity’s funds should not be allowed to buy public service products.

Trump pissed on the graves of a lot of Korean War vets today.

That’s the gist of it.

Apple: ~$2.2 billion Nike: $986 million FedEx: ~$800 million Amazon: $640 million General Motors: $500 million Giant corporations are raking in millions in tariff refunds and getting even richer. But remember: corporations passed tariff costs on to you. Where's YOUR refund?

Americans are relearning the lesson we learned during the Gilded Age of the late 1890s, when robber barons ran the government and the economy for their own benefit: Oligarchy is incompatible with the common good. I'm hopeful we'll respond with a new progressive movement.

Had the A’s stayed, this would have been my retirement. @melissalockard.bsky.social

Every Senator voting for Blanche is supporting the Epstein cover-up and the ongoing corruption of the Trump Administration.

The Blanche statement that likely now secures his confirmation does nothing to abrogate Trump’s rights in the slush fund and perpetuates the outrageous tax amnesty for Trump and family, which the American people are paying for without getting anything in return. It’s all lip service and a travesty.

While you were over here trying to figure out how you were going to cover the rent and food—this guy was over there using $5.1 million in taxpayer money YOU paid into the system to cover these statues in 23 karat gold. Yeah, he did that.

It's noteworthy that the sticking point in getting Todd Blanche confirmed as AG involves financial corruption rather than Blanche refusing to release files about the sex trafficking of children by Trump's former friend. To Republicans, money is always more important than the welfare of children.

Just FYI, George Washington rushed the smallpox vaccine. Didn’t even get FDA approval. Deep state mind control

Support the troops. End the war.

It's so breathtakingly crass to treat the deaths of Americans serving in the military as some contest, a contest that, in your twisted, rotting mind, you think you can brag about winning. There is no reverence, sanity, solemnity, or decorum in this vile regime.

Not dancing on anyone's grave, but maybe tapping my foot a little.

White supremacists who are upset that a black woman was cast as Helen of Troy in the new movie The Odyssey “because it’s not historically accurate” have drawings of a blond, blue-eyed Jesus in their homes.

She’s the only one in the correct century

I saw "Happy 4th" trending and thought Trump had announced his next wife.

They are arresting U.S. Air Force Officers for free speech and U.S. Olympians for curiosity—but not rich men for raping children with Jeffrey Epstein.

Among other things, a 5-4 ruling on birthright citizenship is an invitation to try again.

Again, money is not speech. Cartoon all the way back to 1997. www.nytimes.com/2026/06/30/u...

Crucial. Please watch.

A trail of destruction. Imagine their reaction if Obama had done even one of these things.

The reflecting pool is just a metaphor for the Iran war.

The richest man owns X. The second and third richest men control Google. The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post. The seventh richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros. See the problem here?

I guess the paint is peeling off the grass, too.

Trump desperately wants things named after him. Perhaps the color-naming authorities could name the color of the reflecting pool algae Trump Green?

If you hear Donald talk about how he is responsible for “phenomenal growth,” he’s talking about algae in the Reflecting Pool.

“I hope we shall crush in its birth the aristocracy of our monied corporations which dare already to challenge our government to a trial of strength, and bid defiance to the laws of our country.” —Thomas Jefferson

Trump promised an unconditional surrender in Iran. Today, he delivered on that promise.

Go, Australia!
