And him sitting in the gallery, scowling, and staring, will change something? Nah…

… and it’s gotta stop.

WTF

FBI director Kash Patel joins US men’s hockey team in locker room celebration of Olympic gold medal https://www.wifr.com/2026/02/23/fbi-director-kash-patel-joins-us-mens-hockey-team-locker-room-celebration-olympic-gold-medal/ 

What a Carolina whiner…. Wah wah wah…

Over the last five years, police chiefs have worked to persuade a skeptical public that officers would curb their use of violence. Now, police officials are complaining about ICE, saying they are endangering residents and setting back efforts to improve public trust.

With any kind of luck, Texas A&M will incorporate a new ‘barefoot/pregnant’ course… 😡

After 9/11, George W. Bush created the Department of Homeland Security to prevent future terror strikes. @nickmiroff.bsky.social reports on how DHS shifted from defending the country against foreign terrorists to deploying agents on American streets:

Emergency call logs and reports detailing last week’s fatal shooting of Renee Good by a federal immigration officer reveal a greater sense of the organizational chaos and heightened emotion surrounding her final moments. https://cnn.it/3LFUyTJ

Is there ANYTHING that isn’t gonna be ‘trumped’….?

…Here’s another tune we did at the open mic at PigMinds brewery in Rockford/Machesney Park

It’s a new year, and thought I’d post more, here….

The White House was unhappy with this story and warned they were drafting a tweet to dunk on it.

U.S. President Donald Trump has turned Greenland into a geopolitical hotspot with his demands to own it. Here's a look at what Greenlanders think.

Trump is selling seized Venezuelan oil and putting the cash in a bank account in Qatar. Nothing to see here. www.semafor.com/article/01/1...

So why doesn’t Congress do their job, UNLESS they are ‘in on it, too’……?

This’ll make a big difference in peoples lives… not good, but, a big difference …

Seriously? Wow… priorities….

New peeps. Same swamp…

Reminder: Noem gave $220 million of your tax dollars to a political consultancy group - that is closely tied to her own pockets - to create an ad campaign of her on horseback. She refuses to answer questions about the expense b/c she insists she is entitled to spend DHS funds as she sees fit.

MAGA: "Look, there's no actual PROOF that she committed fraud, but she should have the decency to step down to protect her office against the ACCUSATION!" Also MAGA: "I mean... is it REALLY so bad if somebody rapes a sex-trafficked 15-year old? apnews.com/article/fede...

Consider: A billionaire would not have had to donate $130m to pay the military if billionaires in the US paid the same tax rate that they did in the 80's. In fact, if they did, ALL the programs Trump cut, including the ACA, would be easily funded. www.forbes.com/sites/sarado...

Anti science, except for their phones, tv’s, and all the other toys they use…

wait! Didn’t his highness declare that everything has to be built by American companies, in America?

Buy Canadian!!!!!

Jerk….

Public outrage has been piling up over the sudden demolition to make way for the sprawling, golden ballroom President Trump has long craved. https://cnn.it/3Wlh9qH

New release for Alison Brown and @stevemartinreally.bsky.social

How’s that workin’ for his highness?

Indiana University canceled all print editions of the student newspaper, Indiana Daily Student, citing financial deficits. Student editors say the 158-year-old paper is being censored, sparking a debate over press freedom.

They just hate kings in the USA…

Mishandling of info? Kinda like boxes found at Mar a lago?

Commentary: Given President Trump’s inability to make good on his bold promises to quickly end the Ukraine war, the administration is finding its own face-saving way of shifting the burden of the war over to Europe.

Everybody ‘owes’ him, in his oily book………

Speaking of being ashamed….

Cuz he has his own gold plane, and, doesn’t ever visit the country, then, yeah, he’s gonna cut it….

I am disappointed w/ the TSA… this is a copy of their Twitter post… (NEVER gonna call it ‘X’) “Beginning midnight October 1st, funding for much of the Federal Government will have expired due to the partisan politics of left-wing politicians.” DO NOT need partisan political 💩 from them….

All blue states. What a surprise. I guess all we can do is vote out every single Republican candidate for every office in those states since none of them will speak up or do anything. And the Appropriations Chair Susan Collins.

Whoo hoo! Time for a fresh batch of scandals!!!

I’m confused how it is despicable to ask that question. These are exactly the kinds of questions we have been begging reporters & TV hosts to ask. You see when they do get asked how sensitive they are about it. Much, much more of this. More crypto questions, Qatar, UAE, etc bsky.app/profile/atru...

It’s a frickin’ cuppa, not a political statement… these ‘customers’ need to get the stick out of their……..

Fact: Undocumented immigrants are not even eligible to purchase the ACA coverage we’re trying to protect. Republicans voted to hike costs and take health care away from American citizens. Including their own constituents. Read that again. Over and over.

Ok. So. A lot of congress will say they “submitted a letter to forgo pay during shutdown.” Congress is paid once a month so they have 30 days. Secondly, they want you to believe they are saying they will give up their pay. No. They just hold it until it reopens

Farmers are going bankrupt, John Deere is fledgling, and Donald Trump just gave a bailout to Argentina? 😡 We lost our #1 export country in China and for him, every day is just another walk in the park. Thank you CBS Evening News for coming to the Quad Cities and telling our local story.

Proof? Where is the proof? Though, maybe a spoonful of bleach would take the place of Tylenol...

nothing ever changes.... We always have had 💩 people like this... We always will... 🙁

That’s not @officedepot.bsky.social ‘s fault. That is a decision by an employee-now ex employee- that comes with repercussions … You make that choice, you pay the price.

The chaotic national dialogue around immunizations could cause widespread and lasting damage to public health, even in places like the Bay Area where vaccine support remains robust, experts say.

Why not deploy the guard, AND the army, to every city? Then we’ll be just like China, and so many other countries!!!!
