It's pronounced, "Un-President-ed." Not a mistake when you see his name in lowercase. It's befitting a man with such Low-T.

Really disappointed by the creative community under the trump regime: Where are all the great TV shows about Gov't conspiracies like The X Files & Alias? If you want to hear about extrajudicial assassinations, unsanctioned bombings, & covert surveillance of US citizens, you have to turn on the News

Donald trump is waiving sanctions Congress passed so he can buy Russian diesel with our tax dollars that Russia will use to help Iran kill our soldiers in a war that he started. There. That's all you'll ever need for any "yeah, but the Democrats" conversations from now until the end of time.

Jack Hopkins-The Original@therealjackhopkins.bsky.social

Congress passed a law forcing new sanctions and tariffs on Russia. Two days before it kicked in, Trump signed an order waiving it. Read that twice. Then ask who the law was for. Trump is a Russian asset.

We are traumatizing our children. MAGA is mad about video games and horror movies. There is nothing scarier than going to school.

Investigators in Bend, Oregon, sought more answers on Friday after a teenage attacker shot and killed three children and a teacher at an elementary school on Thursday afternoon. Follow updates here.

Kudos to the production staff who made it look as though Mike Collins was having to listen to that literally from hell. It's as though what was happening in his mind manifest itself on stage.

Ossoff says that Mike Collins has "hired half the Third Reich to staff your congressional office"

Just now there was a UPS, FedEx, Amazon Prime, and USPS mail truck all on my street at the same moment. The drivers were bounding from their vehicles to front porches and back again like a choreographed ballet. There's a commentary about American life in there somewhere. Just not sure what it is.

ABC News 9/11 coverage is simply the families reading the names at ground zero and showing their photos It's an acknowledgement nothing an anchor or pundit can say would be more important than simply hearing the names and seeing the faces of those we lost, + the tributes by the families. Profound.

Exactly. If only there was a gov't agency for stuff like this... We should boycott food! Who's with me?? 💀

Going to the grocery store shouldn’t feel like playing a round of Russian roulette. Maybe 🤔 deregulating food safety isn’t a great idea?

I have believed for a long time that the only way the Cowboys win the Super Bowl is when Jerry is dead, and Jerry won't die until the Cowboys win the Super Bowl. It's like living in Purgatory...

-George Washington led the American military in our War for Independence. -Ulysses S. Grant led the Union Armies in the Civil War. -George H.W. Bush flew combat missions as a Navy pilot in World War II. -Donald Trump hid in an airplane catering cart in the Iran war.

Both OpenAI and Anthropic revealed their AI test models escaped containment and hacked outside companies... Also, widespread hacks of U.S. Water Systems are reported in the last week. Maroon 45 says it's not Iran, so it probably is. Or, could these two stories be related?

wired.comThe OpenAI and Anthropic AI Hacking Sprees Are a Messy New Legal FrontierBoth major AI labs’ models broke containment, escaped onto the internet, and hacked other companies. If a human had done that, the law would likely be against them. But a bot?

My prediction on Prediction Markets in politics: These platforms can now be gamed by bad-faith $ going towards losing candidates to prop up their odds, knowing the MSM will report it as 'predicted to win' their races Kalshi's Wisdom of the Crowds becomes 1 more corrupted influence to sway outcomes

"Polymarket 2024" was a 1-time thing. Now the game is rigged. Votes can't be bought, but Trends can. The CNN’s et al. who got in bed with these co.'s will look effing stupid when the results don't match the bets. Meanwhile, the GOP will reference their “fixed” odds to claim elections were stolen.

'YMCA' is his administration's anthem. He gushes over 'good looking' Mamdani. He fellated a microphone stand on the campaign trail. Photos of him "blowing Bubba" discussed in the Epstein files. You'd think MAGA would have figured it out by now. He must marvel that they haven't yet.

Could we please, just once, not do the Democrat thing, and just say good for them

trump is the guy who invented the “9/10” of a penny at the end of gas prices posted at the gas station. That way they can charge you 90% of another penny per gallon but not have it reflected in the price you see. No one would dare take credit for doing something so evil, so let’s say it was him.

MS Now should hire all the people who were fired or left from 60 minutes and start a news show called One Hour.

“I’m Kid Rock.” “I’m Naomi Wolf.” “I’m Kanye West.” “I’m Matt Taibbi.” “I’m Catturd. Those stories, plus Rob Schneider, tonight on 60 Minutes.”

I've met Nick Bilton a couple times and he's a friend of friends, so I'm going to be diplomatic here: he's a vichy collaborator who took on the job of destroying a load-bearing beacon of journalistic truth on behalf of a right-wing billionaire bc Pres DJT got his wittle feewings hert. Shame!

Justin Baragona@justinbaragona.bsky.social

Oliver Darcy got the audio of the heated 60 Minutes meeting where Scott Pelley dressed Nick Bilton down! "You know what was rude? Black Thursday. That was the absolute definition of rudeness. Telling Tanya Simon she had to be out of here at five o'clock." www.status.news/p/scott-pell...

What have they said to athletes who speak their mind? "Shut up and dribble," right? Greg Abbott needs to shut up and stick with his "wheeling" and self-dealing.

WTF. Is this what we’re all gonna have to deal with for the next week? Can every politician take a two week sabbatical—or just stay the hell away from the NBA Finals and let us all just enjoy it?

Something Wemby doesn't get nearly enough credit for: The energy expenditure needed to get a 7'5" frame to do all of that. "He gets tired..." Well, yeah!

Steph Noh@stephnoh.bsky.social

Wemby staying in front of Holmgren's drive, switching to stay in front of Wallace's drive, then switching to stay in front of McCain's drive and block his fadeaway. Then drives through the Thunder defense, spin move, layup. Sheesh.
