Bookworm by day, horror movie fanatic by night. Love to hike like I’m being chased by a slasher villain, cheer for my Steelers like it’s the Super Bowl every week, and debate politics with the enthusiasm of a theater critic reviewing a bad musical.

The time to determine whether Dan J. Sullivan Jr. could appear on the Alaska ballot for U.S. Senate was months ago, and Alaska courts did so. What's additionally batshit about this is that the candidates' names are printed on the ballot in a way which makes abundantly clear who's who.
Breaking news: The Justice Department has moved to preemptively block certification of the results of Alaska’s Senate race if Republican incumbent Sen. Dan S. Sullivan loses his tight race against Democrat Mary Peltola next month.

Jesus!
Many called Jared Kushner corrupt Many noted he took bribes from Middle Eastern autocrats, especially Saudi Arabia, skewing US foreign policy And they were right But as this reveals, he's even more corrupt and took even more money from Middle Eastern autocrats that many, even strong critics, knew
I just can't wait for the day. Got a bottle of wine ready.
Trump: "Ramaswamy put up a very powerful Ad about a mother saying that her daughter, Acton, is a liar, and much worse. The Press is trying to get him to 'take down the Ad.' Frankly, anybody whose mother spoke about daughter that way would normally lead to the daughter being precluded from serving"

Without Iraq hard to imagine we get Obama? It wasn't Iraq. It was the Great Recession which would have occurred no matter who was pres. Gore would not have invaded Iraq. After 12 yrs of Dem presidency, US would have elected GOP pres in 2004. Great Recession. Obama elected.
Dana Bash on the ripple effects of an election: "Without George W. Bush...who knows what would have happened after 9/11...it's hard to imagine [Gore] taking it into Iraq...Without Iraq, hard to imagine we get Barack Obama. Without Barack Obama, hard to imagine we get Donald Trump."
When Dems takeover in 2029 the first thing they BETTER to do is RAISE THESE MFRS TAXES!!!
“.. I predict .. that you’ll see a global output deal for Skydance with SpaceX, and an investment by SpaceX into Skydance, to delever Skydance and take a little bit of the burden off .. Ellison’s shoulders, because he’s taking on a pretty big pile of debt.” www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/bus...
Then get a bailout with our tax dollars.
I'm coming to fear Larry Ellison could singlehandedly cause a crash. He's a one-man Janga economy: Oracle over-building, sonny's Skydance, collateralized investments in AI companies; any could bring his tower down, then much else with it. www.wsj.com/finance/larr...

Here's the link to report fraud to the fraudulent fraud task force. america.gov/fraud
Guess who I am going to report. Lmao.
Trump announces "fraud whistleblower incentive program" -- "Americans will now be able to go to fraud dot gov and report cases of corruption and theft of taxpayer dollars in their communities ... if you turn somebody in and you find $1 billion, we're giving a commission of 1%. That's a lot of money"
Wjere is this money coming from? Didnt we just give these farmers a shit ton of money a few months ago? Farmers are the ultimate welfare queens.
Trump: "I'm pleased to announce that the Department of Agriculture will be launching a new harvest fuel relief program providing our farmers with $8 billion in support to offset diesel costs during this harvest season. And Roger Marshall is the leader who fought for that to happen."

If you would rather see Republicans win under any scenario, you are a Republican, and Democrats shouldn’t give a fuck what you have to say.
🤔 James Carville: “I’d rather Republicans keep the house by 5 than Dems win by 5… Because then they’re hostage to DSA, and Hakeem can’t move.” 😬Bill Kristol: “Good point.” So afraid of DSA folks who want M4ALL, etc. they’d rather Republicans hold power. Unreal. True colors.
I work for a very large company that is staffed with some of the smartest,highly accomplished, and highly educated individuals. Our IT dept put a sign on what was clearly their 3D printer telling people not to put their old phones in it and phone drop off was across the room in a locker. 😆😆

SCOOP: 'Tommy' from the now-viral exchange with Abdul El-Sayed is Thomas Teepell, a former staffer for Republican Senator Josh Hawley with close ties to Christian Nationalist Sean Feucht. He's the son of a former Bobby Jindal staffer whose consultant work was instrumental in getting Hawley elected.
They. Don't. Care. Full Stop.
JD Vance takes a question from a man whose wife was an American who died in an Iranian air strike in March. He says "there's a failure in the leadership" and asks Vance "how is this administration gonna start holding those leaders accountable for the deaths of the soldiers that we honor and love?"
