Even a broken clock is right twice a day, although his claim that 99% would approve of Elon Musk is ludicrous.

diesel/gas prices are as closely correlated with movement in voter opinion as anything. i'm not saying that's good (it's clearly bad), but it's a very useful, near-real time gauge of what direction we're headed in

... But just as importantly, this needs to be a wakeup call to all the lazy, do-nothing Democrats in office now. What he's doing isn't impossible, or even "socialist". Most of what he's done is simple, no-nonsense stuff that lets him connect w/ voters. Stuff that any Democrat SHOULD be doing.

Rote Armee Fraktion / Baader-Meinhof gang were the footsoldiers of the KGB and the Stasi committing murder and acts of sabotage in West Germany. They were provided military equipment, guns and money by the KGB's station in Dresden where the man pictured below, know as Volodya, was their contact.

@tasslefizney1.bsky.social FWIW, starting with LBJ vs Goldwater, I have voted in every election, presidential and mid-term, and have never voted for a Republican for president and very rarely for Republicans in mid-term elections.

I voted for Harris, but the party must understand that Biden’s decision to run and his acceptance/enabling of IDF Gaza war crimes were the main reason for Trump 2.0. The party needs systems for preventing this from ever happening again.

This is an absolute disaster from a national security perspective. Obviously, a lot on F-35s is classified, but a weapons-bay door and a canopy with radar-absorbing material are some of the most sensitive. Hard to describe how bad this is.

Just so we’re clear, Susan Collins isn’t a moderate nor has she ever been a moderate, she’s a MAGA lunatic, a lifelong fraud and a crook who belongs in jail, not in a Senate seat.
