The NYPD (God bless 'em) has just released their surveillance videos, which show unequivocally that all the statements made by Markwayne Mullin about the Marble Hill shooting are false. But then we knew that. Let's give him a five-Pinocchios award for today's show. bsky.app/profile/reic...

🚨The House battlefield is moving sharply toward Democrats. Current forecasts point to at least 15–20 Democratic gains, with a much larger landslide possible. But don’t just watch the polls — volunteer, donate, and vote. Close races are decided by the people who show up. #BlueWave2026

How can anybody be surprised that Trump makes a for the US meaningless Diesel deal with Putin to end sanctions on Russia? Have you not understood that Trump supports Russia against Ukraine, the West & the US? Few things are more obvious.

He was quite a male diva, and knew Trump professionally as a celebrity performer, but he was not a "friend" and would be appalled to see Trump today He also died in 2007 -- before any of the Obama birtherism shit that put Trump on the political map.

The Senate voted 51-48 in March to take up the SAVE America Act, and the bill has since stalled while Trump has pressed Thune to pass it. More than 3,100 petitioners say the original SAVE Act would destroy the right to vote for millions, and they want Congress to kill it.

Trump's extreme narcissism is suffocating.
    Narcissists are consumed with maintaining a shallow false self to others. They're emotionally crippled souls that are addicted to attention. Because of this they use a multitude of games, in order to receive adoration. Sadly, they are the most ungodly of God's creations because they don't show remorse for their actions, take steps to make amends or have empathy for others. They are morally bankrupt.

Hey, Keisha Lance Bottoms can win this race. Instead of making empty excuses why she can't win, focus on making excuses on why she can pull this off. The gap in polling is razor thin. The ruling party is unpopular. Ossoff is kicking ass. Enough with the self-defeatism. Find an excuse to win.
