Let’s not call this drag

Did James Talarico tell his grandmother that he thought he might be gay? Oh, no! That was JD Vance! Has James Talarico been in a 15 year mentor-protégé relationship with gay billionaire Peter Thiel? Oh, no! That was JD Vance! Did James Talarico pose in drag? Oh, no! That was JD Vance!

Five days. For those of you wondering, Zacharia's five day tenure equates to: A little less than half of one Scaramucci Unit (11 days) Half the life cycle of a fruit fly (10 days) 1/7th the length of Mardi Gras (35 days) 1/8th the tenure of Liz Truss (49 days) 2.7% of a Friedman Unit. (6 months)

I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

Ashley Moody has 10 MILLION reasons she won’t debate me. She stole Medicaid money from sick kids. And, she’s taken millions of dirty money from the AI lobby. Floridians deserve honest answers from the two candidates running to represent Florida. #AngieForFlorida

Next up: caravans of immigrants. Never fails.

Trump tries to start a race war: "The once Great State of Minnesota is being taken over by Somali Immigrants ... The Somalians should not be allowed to get away with what they are doing. They view you as weak and stupid people. Fight back Minnesota, fight back!"

The Rays advance to the ALCS for the first time since 2020! #CLINCHED (MLB x @BudweiserUSA)

@larosalind.bsky.social Sigh. I couldn’t open the paywalled article, though.

Who knew that replying “Fuck off” to a text from Trump (god knows why they even sent it) would get “Successfully Unsubscribed” reply?
