The Kennedy Center was financially stable until Trump took over: "In the fiscal year ending in 2024, when the center was led by President Deborah Rutter and a bipartisan board of trustees, it brought in about $40 million more than it spent" www.theatlantic.com/culture/2026...

It’s very simple. A reality TV host became dictator because he turned down a role for Sharknado 4 and that’s why the king of outer space, who cheats at Diablo, got to kill Africa. Now the economy is controlled by a sex cult that has something to do with Harry Potter fanfic because of robots.

The NY Times is in “but her emails” mode regarding Abdul El-Sayed and Hasan Piker. Relentless and unfair. Where’s the big story about a Republican megadonor who is a white supremacist? Maybe NYT has heard of him. His name‘s Elon Musk.

I don't do much 9/11 posting, but I always think about Bretagne, the last surviving ground zero search and rescue dog. When they took her to be euthanized in 2016, first responders saluted as she entered the clinic. She was later carried out in a flag-draped casket. www.chron.com/news/houston...

Remember when Joe Biden proposed canceling student debt and every single Republican accused him of "bribing voters"?
dailymail.com
Biden accused by GOP of 'bribing' voters with student loan forgiveness
The Biden administration unveiled its latest effort to forgive as much as $20,000 in debt for some borrowers on Monday after the Supreme Court struck down its original plan last year.

Yeah, I don't think there's an appreciation of how radicalized "normie Dems" are and have been getting. They were promised "incremental progress" was the way to go and literally everything that's been incrementally built over decades of cautious triangulation has been destroyed in months.

We really need to stop referring to these machines as “dogs.” That’s a descriptor given to them as part of a years long PR campaign to normalize their presence in civilian spaces. They are marketed as mobile surveillance and weapons platforms. We need to call them that.

I think part of the pundit crack-up has been that they missed the big call of their lifetimes about which was the bigger threat to America: wokeness or authoritarianism. And rather than admitting that, they are doubling down on wokeness, while ignoring an authoritarianism that does not threaten them

The “fiscal crisis” USPS is facing is a $2.5 billion dollar “shortfall” - to provide mail services for the entire country (including rural routes). We’ve spent $3.6 billion in tomahawks alone in the war-that-is-not-war. So spare me the panic.

When Democrats talk about their GOP "friends," they sound like soap opera actors patiently explaining to hardcore fans that they don't really hate their arch-nemesis on the show. "We're very good friends in real life. We go to the same gym, sometimes vacation together. We're just acting, you know!"

The tattoo came to light seven months ago. Lots of time to find another progressive among the million adults in Maine. But that didn’t happen, bc in truth his supporters just don’t care about the tattoo or the racism or the misogyny. They saw a blue collar-coded Christian white guy and went all-in.
