He wasn't talking about the ornaments on the windows, sir. You know that. He was talking about the gold barnacles on the walls of the Oval Office. They're cheesy.

Trump is BIG MAD about Obama saying the White House now looks like Saddam opened a Cheesecake Factory: "He's not a smart guy. He's not smart at all ... for you to say it's a Cheesecake Factory, that just shows why you were a lousy president"

The good news, on the other hand, is that this win happened despite BILLIONAIRES putting their fat cheating thumbs on the scale against it!

Before the Brazilian election where progressive Lula beat right-wing Bolsonaro, Meta is accused of disrupting Lula's Insta and WhatsApp accounts Meta blamed "technical difficulties" That would be more believable if similar incidents had not happened recently in the US Tech billionaires are evil

I just can't predict, though, what horrors they'll blithely accept and what horrors they'll draw the line at. To me, they're all horrors.

New in PN: Ramaswamy discovers that voters have their limits "This is the nature of today’s right-wing bubble, whose residents are not only acculturated to a particular political style — cruel, often hateful — but become convinced it’s the only effective way to do politics, & any other way is weak"

I suspect the Republicans have a special office for the person who mines supposed insults out of Democratic statements. It's a living, I guess.

Mrs. Betty Bowers@mrsbettybowers.bsky.social

I keep seeing posts from Republicans pretending to be insulted by Barack Obama's Cheesecake Factory quip because most Americans supposedly think it serves haute cuisine. First, it does not. And you know that. Second, his remark wasn't about the food. It was about the over-the-top golden decor.

Trump is straight up saying during speeches that he wants white people coming to the country but not black. I don’t know what else people need to see.

Sir, YOU don't know what "incumbent" means. This does not mean Alaskan voters don't. Also? "Unfair" does NOT mean "illegal."

Blanche: "We had to destroy the process in order to save it."

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Blanche on CBS says his suit against Alaska is "asking the court to step in where the Alaska Supreme Court didn't, which is to look at federal law and if necessary to allow a process for Alaska to decide who should be certified as the winner." (So, the voters won't get to decide. Got it.)

wow -- a squirming Mike Rogers gets flustered as Kristen Welker points out that while he attacks El-Sayed over the Muslim Brotherhood, *Rogers himself* defended the Muslim Brotherhood during the same period of time that El-Sayed did!
