My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

We could have universal healthcare. We could have high-speed trains. We could have an infrastructure that is not crumbling. We could have universal free college tuition. We could have universal income. Instead, we get this.

Fox News hosts spend their day telling their audience that Democrats are communists and communists are evil people, then in the evening they all got dressed up to attend a state dinner honoring a communist.

why would the heritage minutes company ban comments on this recent one they posted is there anything happening in the world that would make this hilariously over the top scene seem politically fraught

There is something so pathetically fitting about Lindsey Graham’s Senate seat becoming an empty vessel held by someone who just does whatever Trump tells them to

Oh, and this better be the death knell in her candidacy. Voice Over: "A woman simply "given" a job with the best health insurance available has a message to you. 'Now, it's your turn to die due to lack of health insurance and sick leave. It's the American way, back when America was great."

This is the letter kids got at the end of Dolly’s Imagination Library. I defy you to read this and not cry.

Trump tears up a working nuclear agreement and starts a war with Iran, blames it on Iran. Trump starts an economic war with Canada, blames it on Canada. Trump f*cks up America and the world, Blames it on Biden and Obama.

You could give me an all expense paid trip including tickets to awesome broadway shows and I still wouldn’t go. #elbowsup

NYC is rolling out a 🇨🇦-focused limited-time “Northern Neighbour Deal” (Aug 18–Sep 7) with discounts on 40+ hotels, savings on Broadway shows and 20% off flights from several Canadian cities. But Canadians won’t go: Trump said the US doesn’t need anything from Canada. Then that includes tourist $$! 🇨🇦

Hey @governor.ca.gov Do you still think Canadians should drink your wine and visit and spend money in your country? #elbowsup

Headquarters@headquartersnews.bsky.social

Trump has ordered an additional 50% tariff rate on Canadian goods after saying Canada should pay "some damages or something" for wildfire smoke.

Love the ratio. And the replies. Especially those from our American neighbours who get why Canadians don’t want to buy American right now.

Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.gov

Canada's boycott of California wine is causing devastating harm to winegrowers. I'm urging the Canadian government to recognize that California doesn’t agree with these tariff wars, to lift these restrictions, and increase consumer options to strengthen both our economies.

The comments….. Thanks for the laugh, Kevin

Kevin McCarthy on Platner Allegations: That one thing I know about Republicans is when we had a very bad candidate, we didn't vote for that person. We walked away.

Since I did do my PhD in cyanobacteria growth and treatment optimization modeling AND work in the water treatment industry, I’m gonna share my theory as to what’s happening here and how to fix it. People are focusing on the painted bottom of the pool increasing residual heat, and while that 1/19

10/ All of this was totally foreseeable. Frankly, it’s why previous presidents weren’t so stupid to start a war like this. Trump has lost control of the war. His best course now is to cut his losses and end it. That’s the only way to prevent an even bigger disaster.
