I have composed a song called "Brushing Day" to the tune of "Yesterday", to sing while I am brushing the cats. Mainly because the lyric, "Suddenly, I'm not half the cat I used to be. There's a giant fur pile next to me." just popped into my brain fully formed, and then I felt compelled to continue.

I’ve watched a lot of congressional hearings over the last 40 years. This performance by Bondi is the single most unprofessional, non-responsive, reprehensible and obnoxious I have ever seen from any witness who has testified before any committee of either chamber.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts. Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

Buried in the polls, with every American screaming for the Epstein files, the walls are closing in on Tangerine Palpatine. Sending troops to every city you can in a desperate attempt to make martial law happen is not strength. It’s the last gasp of a dying regime.

To be clear, Pam Bondi took a $25K bribe from the orange felon to cover up his crimes with his fake university back when she was the trashy AG of Florida, so I don’t get why people are shocked that she fired an Ethics Chief at DOJ or that she’s hiding Epstein files, she’s a crook too.

So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

We only know this man is in Gitmo because Noem tweeted a propaganda photo that included him and his sister saw it. He has no criminal record. He entered the US in January and immediately made an appointment with CBP to claim asylum. They sent him to a concentration camp bc of his basketball tattoo.

The Hegseth hearing is doing one thing incredibly well: it’s establishing that when his leadership at DoD fails, it’ll be clear that GOP Senators knew, excused it, and they own it. Serious concerns about experience & judgment are literally being laughed off.
