He is desperately trying to protect his brand. Joe Rogan has been thriving on the perception that he is all about common sense. And yet, there have been years of none at all.

Ron Filipkowski@ronfilipkowski.bsky.social

Joe Rogan suddenly acting like he was an innocent bystander for years and had no idea what Trump was all about until now and did nothing to help get him elected is pretty weak and pathetic. Just own it.

Corporations shouldn't get to spy on you and then charge you more than the person next to you. That's surveillance pricing. I have a bill to ban it. Now 30-plus companies are lobbying DC to keep doing it. We can and must beat them.

Is this the same guy who claimed he saw middle eastern people on TV in New Jersey cheering on rooftops as the towers fell?

Trump claims he was basically lifted out of the rubble on 9/11: "Two fireman, big strong guys, they grabbed me under the arms -- 'got to get our of here!' -- and they literally lifted me up, and they started running with me."

So....what are WE doing?

U.S. SECRETARY OF STATE MARCO RUBIO SAYS ON VENEZUELA THAT 'IN THE PAST, UNFORTUNATELY, THE VAST MAJORITY OF VENEZUELA'S WEALTH WAS EITHER STOLEN OR GIVEN AWAY TO GEOPOLITICAL INTERESTS THAT ARE OPPOSED TO THE INTERESTS OF THE VENEZUELAN PEOPLE'

We must be running low on those air defense missiles...

Trump: "If the failed Nation of Iran retaliates for this very justified attack, they will be hit again at a much harder & higher level, but it will not be the biggest attack of them all, that is waiting in the wings &, when it is over, there will be very little left of the Islamic Republic of Iran!"

I am once again reminding folks that direct, or contributed towards, death by COVID or Measles (and so on) DOES NOT MATTER.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

speaking in front of placards that read "FAUCI MUST ROT IN PRISON," White House official Peter Navarro downplays covid -- which killed one million Americans! -- as "not that infectious" and only dangerous for people with comorbidities

Children's Hospital of Philadelphia estimated over 100k measles deaths worldwide in 2024 because of unvaccinated communities. This idea that, because "this is America", it's not as deadly here is moronic. Whether the death is directly from Measles, or contributed by, DOES NOT MATTER.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

RFK Jr refers to measles deaths as "so-called 'measles deaths' in Lancaster County. I talked with the country this morning and they says there were no measles deaths. There was a press conference by the governor that was highly politicized, and we saw a lot of the covid playbook rolled out."

People also notice that one is done, and not the other.

MIke Lawler defends Trump renaming Lake Ontario: "I don't think people care about the name of the lake. I do think they care about fair trade"

1/ Just a friendly reminder that it's ok to disagree on something from someone you enjoy following. AI has tons of useful benefits that would actually be smart to use and improve your works efficiency ten times over. Ask AI to review your code to help identify where a problem is

2/ occuring to help expedite a fix. Ask it to summarize an email chain to help make sure you aren't missing anything important. Ask it for a critical analysis of your work to see if it thinks you are hitting the mark before sending it off. Use it to brainstorm ideas and to gain alternate

3/ Perspectives that you may not have thought of. So on and so forth. That doesn't mean AI is good for every instance, and cannot replace or invent human creativity. But to say people who use it in their line of work to improve efficiency are stupid/lazy is unfair. Non-AI users will fall behind.

This is the same playbook with every single vote. Two vulnerable senators say no, and everyone else ponies up. Rinse, repeat.

BREAKING: Sen. Lisa Murkowski says she will vote against Todd Blanche's nomination. Blanche can now afford to lose the support of just one more senator. His fate now lies with Sen. Bill Cassidy, the longtime Trump critic.

Trump will never fire Hegseth because the optics of a "manly man" being fired after removing DEI would kill their movement. That's mostly why he has only fired women.

Trump describes the Washington Post's reporting about the US's depleted missile stockpile as "treasonous"

Looking down, looking up, wherever he is.

Trump on Lindsey Graham's whereabouts: "Sitting, laying, wherever he may be. I think I know where he is. I think he's up there and watching us. I'm pretty sure of it."

Iran took Obama more seriously and I hope the eats Trump up.

Massie: "I think it's ironic that we control the House, Senate, Supreme Court, and the White House, and we're yelling 'election fraud'? I mean, we won all the damn elections."

If I was going to sabotage the reflection pool, I'd throw in buckets of red dye. And then put photos of the Iranian school children everywhere in the park. But that's just me fantasizing.

JD Vance: "I would just say to those Christians in Lebanon, keep your faith in Jesus Christ and know you have a lot of good friends in the US government who are trying to promote peace in the region"

Trump on Egyptian President el-Sisi: "He was in a hotel and I met him. We fell in love, deeply in love ... we didn't know each other before that. We had great chemistry, and I stayed twice as long as I was supposed to."

Polls show that only 15% of Americans approve of yesterday’s UFC spectacle on the White House grounds. But in this Palo Alto brothel/ketamine bar, that percentage feels much higher

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Q: You have said before the Iran and the US were close to a deal. It has not happened yet. Why are you so convinced that this time is different? TRUMP: Because they've taken a pounding. They've taken a pounding like very few people could take. And they want to make a deal a lot more than I do.

What is this grotesque fanaticism of bloody violence for our 250th? We have placed the clown back in the white house and he has quite literally made it a circus.

CNN poll: 77% — including a majority of Republicans — say Trump's policies have increased the cost of living in their own community Roughly two-thirds of Americans say Trump's policies have worsened economic conditions Trump's approval stands at 30% on the economy — a career low

As a good little Catholic school boy, I feel compelled to ask how a structure can contain the kingdom of God? It cannot be bought, mastered, nor conquered. Christ welcomed all into his home I thought?

An escalation escalator, maybe.

Mike Waltz: "The president will move up an escalation ladder responsibly, as our amazing military will follow those orders with him as the commander in chief, until Iran comes to the table."

Rep. Randy Fine argues that Israel's attacks on Lebanon aren't actually attacks on Lebanon because "Israel is not attacking Lebanon. Israel is attacking Hezbollah."

Is Hasan suffering from a concussion or something?

Becfella@becfella.bsky.social

Important note Iranian shaheds in the thousands have been killing Ukrainians Iran works with Russia and funds terror organisations So Again Iran are not the good guys Simply because trump waged a stupid war Let’s not confuse things

Now that Iran could make upwards for $42 Billion a year from tolling the Strait, that allows them to build 1.2 Million drones at $35k a pop. In order for the US to shoot down those drones with our tech of $4 million a piece, it would cost the US $4.8 Trillion dollars. So much for free healthcare.
