For hating on ThE GaYZ so, much, these posers sure do love the homoerotic imagery.

I know that correlation does not equal causation, but announcing a massive unnamed-source "ground beef" importation on the heels of increased wild horse slaughter seems a little sus.

Perimenopausal Melania has reached the limit for meeting iDJiT's demands. A particularly mentally disturbed young blond conveniently appears to listen to his babbling and to coo insturctions into his ear while he's on the changing table.

I'm 68 and still wondering what I want to be when I grow up. At 18, I didn't know what I didn't know and I needed to learn about it all to make an informed decision.

Ruth Ben-Ghiat studies authoritarianism, and finds that about 30% of people worldwide favor that form of leadership. So it looks like the rest of us will always have to actively watch for and fight repressive government and its supporters.

Those "friends" are finally getting the message and quietly drifiting away. Is it possible for their collective economies to grow to become self-sustaining and entirely independent of the USA?

I'm loving how they step in and out with their "Fed rules supersede state and local" argument whenever convenient. Funny how their "states' rights" rallying cry gets lost along the way.

That's my biggest fear with Vance; he has no enduring personal "moral compass" as such. He's just up for doing whatever his puppeteers tell him. At least iDJiT has innate abject greed and self-serving narcissism as guiding principles, which help to make his actions somewhat predictable.

Democratic leaders, please think how Republicans would behave if a leading SENATOR of your party were dead and no one could produce the body. How would they frame it? How would they take over the media cycle? DO THAT with Mitch McConnell!

They're laying a marker to deny coverage or payout or charge you with fraud or to collect massively inflated back charges for premiums because you didn't declare some obscure malady, regardless of whether it had any bearing on a death or disability claim. Unerupted premolar? Claim denied!

I noticed on the Maryland primary ballots that party affiliation is not given for any of the listed candidates (and I was a little miffed about it). It seems to me that they used to list them, but I'm not sure how far back that was.

Again: for any big liberal donor who wants to funnel millions into fixing this country's politics, the ROI on buying any struggling paper and simply tasking it with doing real reporting on local news is vastly higher than the same $$ given to some group that does mass ad buys every election year.

I'm always thrilled to hear the wrens start their spring singing the first week of January here in central Maryland. Even that mere two weeks of lengthening days after the winter solstice is enough to charge them up. Me, too, birdies. Me, too.

I wonder what the critical mass of insiders is needed for this to be able to shift a group. I think the first of them to start talking contrary to the group's beliefs would be shunned, exiled, or worse.

Five soldiers in camouflage gear walk in a desert under a cloudy sky, armed and alert. Text below humorously labels them as "American geologists searching for oil."

So, this should finally put to rest any delusions that there are decent people left in the US military who will stand up to illegal orders and protect democracy. The US military is now more likely to kill US citizens rather than help them. They are not our friends.

The appropriate Democratic response is that the president is out of control. You don’t need to repeat his Maduro talking points. Stop being pussies.
