Disgusting human being, that guy. He was never going to oppose the Trump regime on anything. He'll green light anything. That's what he's for.

This assumes that people have access to lifesaving medications when needed. I remember the Covid PPE shortage that had medical personnel wearing garbage bags and reusing their masks until they fell apart. Access is everything.

Oppose every freaking thing he does. On anything we can, we force a veto-proof majority (with Republicans who have to help because they will go broke if they don't.) This will take a whole lot of pushing.

Take a lesson from the Ukrainians--keep pushing and never ever let up. Whatever Trump does, push against him. Impeach every acting Secretary of Defense he appoints. This is not a one and done process.

If you want to vote by mail, apply for an absentee ballot ASAP. They'll start to be sent out on October 6. When you get it, complete your ballot (i.e. vote!) and mail it back ASAP ⚠️ 💡 Pro Tip: want to avoid post office timing or delays? Drop it off in person at your County Board of Elections

The Chinese Communist Party got access to sensitive components of U.S. F-35 stealth fighters. The U.S. got 2 pandas.

He claims to depend on Grok. Said he was married to it, only half joking. Whatever Grok tells him, unless he doesn’t like the AI answer. Then he rewords the question to get an answer he wants. Did I understand that?

"When something is important enough, you do it even if the odds are not in your favor." Snopes says Musk really said it... It's too bad that his ideas about what's important are so self-serving and profoundly wrong headed.

On a similar topic--I wonder how that Canadian family that moved to Russia to avoid the liberals is doing? Have their children been drafted yet? Are they pleased with their decision?

I believe there are ways to cover an authoritarian regime. Foreign journalists have done it for years. Friendly access isn't the only way to cover the news.

I would say, beware of the last minute additions to the "deal." I'm reminded of what this regime tried to do to Canada at the last minute right before the signing that never happened. Canada walked out because the deal was impossible--supposed to sign away their sovereignty. They refused.

As an American watching the UK Labour Party squander its historic parliamentary majority through aimless, rudderless, poll-driven governance, I hope the U.S. Democratic Party takes note that U.S. voters in 2026 do not want a Democrat-controlled Congress because they want tepid Republican governance

STOP SCROLLING Why I’m sounding the alarm: VoteSafe. org is run by Elon Musk’s America PAC, the same political operation working to turn out Republican voters in the midterms. The site collects voter and political info, and allows your information to be shared or sold to business partners.

25 years ago, terrorists killed nearly 3,000 people, including 2,753 New Yorkers. As we remember that terrible day, let us also remember the first responders, office workers and strangers who ran toward danger to help each other.

Isn't it generally believed that pork is similar (taste and texture) to human meat? I recall a mention of human meat historically being called "long pig" back in the day in some cultures... The things you learn and remember...

No, he would be distracted by how clean the streets are with no horse manure anywhere. And clean air! Cities were called "the big smoke" for a reason: the Victorian era coal smoke was thick in the air. Had to say it. ;)

There's a cargo hold area in the back. I've gone on trips to a cottage with friends in an SUV, and we loaded up that back baggage area. Never was tempted to jump into it--but I was welcome to sit in a seat.

We'll need leaders who are not only up to the job but who have the courage to face threats against them--the old horse-head- in-the-bed level of intimidation from MAGA and associates. The oligarchs aren't playing.

And in the 1930s "Depression" was a euphemism. Before that, the term was "Business Panic." We can't euphemize our way out of this.

Fascinating case, for sure. I don’t expect that the jury of men wanted to believe such a bloody crime could have been done by a woman. A lady’s weapons was poison, not an axe. If a woman could do that, what else could they be capable of??
