It will make for juicy reading in Texass.

Class, in accordance with Texas’s new law, we are going to engage in Bible study. Please open you Bibles to Ezekiel 23:20. “There she lusted after her lovers, whose penises were like those of donkeys and whose ejaculations were like that of horses.” The Bible, pornography for the WHOLE family!

Tijuana 4:00 am last night :the Iranian Soccer team arrives. This is the most shameful #WarCup in history. They have had no recovery after matches, immediate flights to the airport,management/logistics staff denied visas. Shame on America. Shame on FIFA #WorldCup2026

George Conway hits the 🎯 with this brilliant campaign ad hitting the Malignant-Narcissist-in-Chief directly in his massive, but fragile ego. 🤣 I'm Mar🐫 & I approve of his message! 🇺🇸

He's a master of distracting us from crimes he's already committed by continuously committing new crimes. 5 months until the Midterms. #AccountabilityIsComing

Yesterday, a new generation of civil rights activists marched from Selma to Montgomery to fight for voting rights. As states across the country try to make it harder for citizens to be heard, we need to learn the lessons of those who came before us and refuse to take our democracy for granted.

‘Soup fork’ has now entered my vernacular and my world is better for it…

Greg Morosoff@gregmorosoff.bsky.social

Just to clarify. I loathed him, before I even knew what party he might have affiliated with. He was, to me, way back in the 80s, the epitome of what used to be called 'The Ugly American'. I loathe him even more now. I just want him gone. Fuck trump 8647 #TheAlliedForces

Can Anyone Tom Better Than Clarence? The Supreme Court’s resident House Negro went even further than his white Republican counterparts last week in Louisiana v. Callais, which makes it near-impossible to challenge racism in voting. www.laprogressive.com/racism/tom-l...

I was just thinking along these lines tonight, s’matter of fact. So, when are we going to be mad enough? Do we have to schedule the next outrage? Have a slogan and stickers? Fuck that cute shit, it’s time to go go feral. Euro style.

MacFarlane: People in Virginia voted by the millions. Their voices were heard and now have been silenced. And you want to talk about what starts a political wave in a year like this: a mass of people who think their voices have been silenced. That doesn't stop a wave that fuels one.

The editorial cartoonist's pen is one of the sharpest tools in journalism, whittling issues down to basics for satire or rage. I'm proud to say that my long-ago colleague, Milt Priggee, is unafraid to shock with a tough point of view.
