I’m shocked Trump would say something so racist after 50+ years of very public racism

Trump on El-Sayed: "His name is actually Abduladadalalalala. It's Adulbabababababa Mohammed Al-Sayed. So his middle name is Mohammed. So I was right. He's a jihadist."

Trump waiving sanctions against Russia is the most predictable thing ever. The silence of some GOP elected officials is likewise the most predictable thing. Throw the trash out in November. This isn’t funny anymore

As an American political historian, I can confirm that this Congress has been "almost unmatched in history" in several categories -- sad abdication of its war powers, craven surrender of the power of the purse, weird refusal to conduct meaningful oversight, and an utter failure to pass actual laws.

Mike Johnson claims that the current Congress is "probably in the top three or four of all time" and is "almost unmatched in history" 🙃

I don't ever want to hear expressions like "four-dimensional chess" to describe the actions of someone who cannot even play with himself three-dimensionally.

A really great heartfelt obit for Eva Marie Saint by Thirza Wakefield for @sightsoundmag.bsky.social below.

Sight and Sound magazine@sightsoundmag.bsky.social

Eva Marie Saint, 1924-2026 Among the last icons of the golden age of Hollywood, Saint was never quite a movie star in the conventional sense. The Oscar-winning actress leaves behind a career defined less by celebrity than by generosity, craft and an abiding faith in the ensemble

That's very astute of him since there is as yet no film adaptation. So don't be too disappointed.

it's pretty f'd up that the Trump administration is trying to deport my duly-elected member of Congress

Trump's fine with this. He's also fine, apparently, with shootings at US schools. Has he said a word yet about Oregon?

Russia struck a school in Rivne, killing one person. Yes, a school, you read that correctly.

Q: Can you name a time when you voted against Trump and it changed the outcome? SUSAN COLLINS: At one point, I had organized people to vote against Sec. Hegseth. At the very last minute one of our Republicans changed his mind. Otherwise he would've been defeated. Q: So it didn't change the outcome

Tonight on TCM #TCM MONTY PYTHON AND THE HOLY GRAIL (1975) Essential viewing. "Listen, strange women lyin' in ponds distributin' swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony." 🎥

Shown in both Cottage Grove and in Muskegon, Olga Egorova gave a video presentation on Keaton's "The General" about his filmmaking methods based on a side-by-side comparison of the domestic and export versions of the film. You can watch it here: buff.ly/VmfFVaS #oldhollywood

Trump’s ex-chief of staff John Kelly said this to me, six years ago: “I don't know how he’s not in an institution somewhere, whether it’s jail or a nuthouse. He’s a seriously sick guy. I never heard him saying anything that wasn’t a lie.” Trump has only gotten worse since.

And recall that Gen. Kelly bought this book while he was chief of staff because he wanted to understand, and wanted others in the White House to understand, the nature of Trump's psychiatric disorders 👉👉 www.abebooks.com/first-editio...
