It's the anti-🍌 republic effort, and should apply to any future president, Democratic 🫏 and Republican🐘 . It should also apply retro actively...

Putting hi-tech sail drones to catch drugs that don't actually cross the Great Lakes? Nah, they're actually after other things: giant sea serpents! (expect the hires cameras to all of a sudden be fuzzy + B&W...) Gaasyendietha!

"Oz said that the fraudulent enrollees were identified based on their lack of health care use and other factors" So because you weren't YET sick, you got kicked out of health insurance? Are you trying to INCREASE wasteful spending? Because it's clear: even if you are NOT sick, go see a doctor! 🤪

Let me get this right. Since 1940, the US & DK🇩🇰 had an agreement that allows US to build lots of bases on Greenland. Now, after threat of annexation, invasion of a NATO partner + other colonialist behavior: US & DK🇩🇰 have an agreement that allows US to build lots of bases on Greenland. Huh?

Foreigners are supporting Canada 🇨🇦 🍁by buying more of the sugary stuff? I hear there's some alcohol, too, that might be banned soon!

T47 says "pretend I'm on the ballot" for the midterms. Please do. Sounds like a sound strategy.

I'm always fascinated how amnesia leads to an endless news cycle... @wsj.com pulling its head out of the sand: "a new kind of plug-in vehicle called an extended-range EV." ... I present to you: Exhibit A: Chevy Volt, a kind-of-EREV introduced in 2010. Exh. B: OG BMW i3 (2013). Do your research!

Canada just put out a new bill. With King Charlie. A living head of state. Because that's what modern monarchies do.

I wonder if you can get one of these machines that takes larger coins, say $1 coins, and imprints on them a msg, say "Vote Democrat". Or print a duck. (I anonymized the image of the $1 to protect the guilty) Thank you for your attention to this matter.

One interpretation is that two vassals showed up to genuflect.

In other news, Serhiy Viktorovych Lavrov, the Russian foreign minister, made a secretive visit to Mar-a-Lago for talks with the Greatest President Ever. He urged the Americans to end their war against Iran, Canada, or kind of everybody, before their military and economic situation gets worse.😜

Why don't all banks do this? The technology is there to eradicate at least some of the easy scams. Not sure how this would work on a landline though...

What is more likely: "Sir, I was below deck, shaving my beard, I couldn't return fire" or "Sir, my beard got caught in the machine gun, I couldn't return fire"??? Good to know that the Secretary of Defense is looking out for the (photo OP) readiness of our troops.

I'm fine with folks not having to pay property taxes. But then they cannot leave their property, can't get stuff delivered to them, no stuff removed from the property, including sewage, unless they pay a toll for any part of the inbound or outbound trip that touches county land.

Oh, the USA will sooooo bomb Belgium... And sell NBC to Ellison so it won't insult the national team. Which henceforth will be playing in annexed Greenland...

Lars Vilhuber @lars.vilhuber.com · 07/07/2026

So the US won't be bombing Belgium? Luckily, the World Cup is hosted in a country that is lead by a FIFA peace prize winner... www.nytimes.com/athletic/742...

I'm sorry, but "striving" seems to be the wrong state to be in. My train should not "strive" to arrive. My hospital should not "strive" to get treatment before I die. My creditors view "striving to pay cuz striving to find a decent income" poorly. That is not what a successful country is.

Lars Vilhuber @lars.vilhuber.com · 30/06/2026

I'm confused. Isn't "textualist, originalist" usually a positive attribute for the Republicans, or is it only so when the OUTCOME is acceptable to them?

I also want to draw parallels between the current president and Nixon. History repeats itself, right?

The current monarch in Britain released his personal income taxes. The current monarch in the US has not.

I suggest that Hegseth become our next attorney general. It would solve our prison overflow problem, and reduce the incarceration rate back to civilized levels. Maybe I should write for the Onion.

Germany is in principle self-determined by Bundestag, which could spell disaster. But current law explicitly intends to avoid gerrymandering. www.bpb.de/themen/polit... Quite a few squiggly lines that almost certainly contravene my game rules www.bundeswahlleiterin.de/dam/jcr/b11b...
