The recent golf cheating incident in Scotland took me back to the classic scene in "Goldfinger" where Odd Job dropped a Slazenger 1 ball and claimed it as found.

If you are dumb or naive enough to believe the grifters on the right who tell you they’re oppose to immigration because it drives down wages for native-born workers, just ask them 1) if they support raising the minimum wage and 2) how come the GOP doesn’t? Go ahead.

Oh, that’s OK, Elon! No harm done. Well, except for Donald sending ICE and the National Guard into Los Angeles to arrest and shoot citizens just to provide a distraction from you calling him a pedophile. Other than that, no big deal, you tiresome twit.

This has always been the GOP's strategy: 1) Cut taxes for the wealthy & corporations by claiming they'll pay for themselves. 2) Explode the deficit. 3) Demand cuts to vital programs that help millions. 4) Repeat. They're trying to get away with it again.

Exciting that #INTA2026 will be in London, I'm dying to hear what aspects of UK culture and history will be celebrated in the events! The light side of Morris dancing, panto, and Mr. Bean? The dark side of foggy London's famed killers? Knights and Ladies? Britrock?

Trump was just negotiating with Saudi Arabia, the country responsible for 9/11 and dismembering a Washington Post journalist. And took a $400 million bribe from the country that finances Hamas, famous for its hostage taking. So take a seat, you crazy, white supremacist bitch.
