Does exposing yourself as a total dumbass help or hurt in republican politics

extremely weird shit during the Jack Smith hearing -- Sen. Eric Schmitt's team briefly displays a poster board that Schmitt claims contains evidence Smith committed perjury, but then Schmitt's team takes it down before anybody can read it and refuses to show Smith what it says

To the list of new laws we need in 2029- let’s toss on that nothing can be named after the sitting President. History can decide if you deserve a ship with your name on it, you and your lackeys cannot.

BP not only funded the research behind the influential “Wedges” climate science paper, but company execs even tried to revise versions of it. “Chaps, I have had a go at rewriting the paper,” a BP climate adviser wrote the researchers at one point.

The casting search for the next actor to play James Bond is officially underway, with Variety reporting that Nina Gold has been hired as the casting director for James Bond 26, which is said to be looking for a "fresh face" to play 007. https://bit.ly/4dcbcWd

Was it the 45th by any chance

President Trump told reporters Monday that one of his predecessors told him he wished he had been the one to bomb Iran. It appears he did not speak to any of the four former presidents.

Listening closer I believe the majority of chants are saying "no masks should be deployed in an arbitrary and capricious fashion!"

Wow! What sounded like the entire AEW Dynamite audience in Las Vegas tonight chanted "Fuck ICE! Fuck ICE!" in unison before the main event

My brain ignores the pads and processes hockey goalies as simply humans with double the mass. When a goalie does something athletic I can’t help it I’m like “wow it’s amazing to move like that with that build”

Some might say employees should refrain from construction on the White House grounds, to include the east wing, without prior approval

Favorite Robert Redford story: Mike Nichols telling RR he couldn’t be in The Graduate: “I said, ‘You can never play a loser.’ Redford said, ‘Of course I can play a loser!’ I said, ‘Have you ever struck out with a girl?’ And he said, ‘What do you mean?’ And he wasn’t joking.”

This administration has ceded the 21st century to China.

Breaking: The value of China’s exports of clean energy technologies hit a new all-time record in July, passing the previous high from March 2023. China exported $18.4 bln worth of solar and wind power equipment, EVs and batteries during the month.

If this happens a few more hundred times I’m going to start wondering if the big issue in 2016 really was handling of documents.

Are the board of directors holding their vote in 2014?

The Washington Post@washingtonpost.com

Tesla’s board of directors gave Elon Musk about $30 billion worth of shares on the condition that Musk, the world’s richest person, remains a company executive for at least two more years.

But where can we find a sentient whale penis brought to life via demon magic who also believes in Medicare for All?

Asawin Suebsaeng@swin24.bsky.social

I will note something I keep hearing from different lawyers, immigration activists, Dem operatives et al: There is no Democratic Stephen miller . And that’s a problem

Either she’s dumber than everyone in the world or the whole “horrified but reasonable centrist” thing is an act

Sen. Lisa Murkowski said she feels “cheated” after she won a concession in the tax and spending bill to protect wind and solar projects, only to see the Trump administration issue orders that she said seem designed to quash such projects.

Back to his old job I guess. I hope he didn’t do anything to absolutely torch his credibility with his podcast audience

FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino has apparently iced out all communications with his DOH colleagues, not having spoken with anyone at the department since Wednesday. Sources told CNN he is unlikely to stay in this role in the long-term. https://trib.al/wCBPB8N

The Washington Post@washingtonpost.com

Former New York governor Andrew M. Cuomo said that he is running for New York mayor as an independent, weeks after he was soundly defeated in the Democratic primary by Zohran Mamdani.

How are we still doing takes that imply he is capable of change or growth

Don’t feel like I’ve seen Fox News visit any diners to tell Trump voters to escape their echo chamber, but if there’s a space that leans left these people lose their minds

This post is unavailable.

Smart plan for the AI to start with these bland boys. Trying to fake someone with personality like Mamdani would be spotted immediately

The State Department is warning U.S. diplomats of attempts to impersonate Secretary of State Marco Rubio and possibly other officials using technology driven by artificial intelligence.

But wait a second… the biggest liar in the world promised there would be no Medicaid cuts!!!

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Markwayne Mullin: "There are 35 million people that live below the poverty line inside the US. There are over 70 million people signed up for Medicaid. Now you're gonna tell me there's not room to make cuts?"

🙋🏼‍♂️ Excuse me Mr. Rubio isn’t this famously what you did like a month ago?

Oren Samet@osamet.bsky.social

Here’s Sec Rubio invoking “free speech rights” in criticizing foreign govs’ domestic policies. It’s a perfect example of what I call the new values-based foreign policy. Still moralistic, just with different objectives. I wrote about it for @foreignpolicy.com: foreignpolicy.com/2025/05/27/u...

Fun to rewatch The Saint and realize the plot is, literally, that a women has cracked cold fusion but just hasn’t had 90 minutes to put her cold fusion post it notes in the right order RIP Val Kilmer

I cancelled Paramount+ two days ago and when asked why I said “waiting to see if you support your people or cave to Trump” and now they suddenly have courage. I guess one guy really can change the world.

Carl Quintanilla@carlquintanilla.bsky.social

THR: “.. Paramount now signaling that it’s prepared to go on the offensive .. leveraging the threat of uncovering information about Trump’s financials, including with respect to his social media company .. and the cryptocurrency he launched, in discovery.” www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/bus...
