We all know he is a rapist. Found guilty of sexual assault. A beloved associate of Epstein. Multiple women publicly claim assault as minors. MAGA and the Republican Party *doesn't Care*. Just as long as tax cuts, deregulation and friendly judges are appointed. That's all the GOP's Paymasters want.

Well put...

Sorry to hear about your loss, almost Your Honor. Gingrich ousting Michaels was (with Limbaugh) the turning point and the ascendency of Soviet Style Big Lie politics in the US in the GOP.

This was a conscious decision or criminal negligence by the state & national party. Like so many segments of the electorate, the Democratic Party has walked away from them or decided, to chase the mirage like 'moderate Republican" by ignoring that important segment of Democrat's coalition.

Excellent. Worth the listen. Also a testament to how lost and ineffectual far too many of the purported top dem leaders are. We need fire in the belly to confront the ongoing corruption, lawlessness, and public idiocy of Trump and his lackeys.

We knew Witkoff, Kushner and Trump were dirty dealing but this is unbelievable. @rickpetree.bsky.social @davidhemond.bsky.social @tepizep.bsky.social @hcandler.bsky.social @dennowayne.bsky.social

I really don’t care. Do you?

Listen to Jeffrey Sachs 👇👇 He tears Trump apart completely and he’s 💯 right….

Doesn't the Pentagon have a facility manager? You know, someone who has staff who can safely move furnishings in and out of storage? Why in the hell was Sec of Defense's staff moving furniture, and dropping it.

Not just elections but a lot of commerce. People in more metro areas have slacked using US Mail, but in areas where its not economic for physical or delayed delivery, US Mail is only real physical connection they have to the wider world. Letters, checks, bills, gifts...it is a staple.

US garment workers helped pioneer multi-ethnic labor unions, which united people across racial, religious, gender, linguistic, and cultural divides. Also native-born citizens and immigrants. I think about that sometimes when I see people suggest such divides are unbridgeable.

Good article to read as we consider our specie’s rush towards sustained ignorance. “pathetically nostalgic for the mental lassitude of pre-literate people”

What one city can do, another can do.

@11tulips.bsky.social I think of this moment every day. We could have had this brilliant woman.

That’s tail of the dog wagging the Gubmint the way I heard it. Or is it tale of the dog? Hard to figure when the clowns are in charge. Here’s to bourbon! 😄

And here I thought the solution was a hot cup of cocoa after supper- or if necessary a stiff drink. (Why the world wags and what wags it - money, power, greed, lust, fear, jealousy - can be more than a tad depressing at times.) 🤪🧐

“You may grow old and trembling in your anatomies, you may lie awake at night listening to the disorder of your veins, you may miss your only love, you may see the world about you devastated by evil lunatics… There is only one thing for it then — to learn. Learn why the world wags and what wags it”

I argued that this multi-decade project to destroy America was absolutely relentless, that these twisted people had the bit in their teeth, that they believed this was their time to finally deliver the coup de grace, and…

Colors are especially beautiful this autumn in Massachusetts.

Isn't this the very Point of the Trump administration? To knee-cap the United States, pull its very guts apart, smash every crowning glory, create a schism so wide with it's allies, that Russia will have the union of it's arch foes, disbanded. Oh, and loot. A fucking free for all smash and grab.
