I believe in the 1st Amendment. It says you can't be jailed for what you say. It doesn't say you can't be ridiculed for it.

You didn't compound the interest Year 1 he owed $800.93 Year 2 $945.09 Year 3 $1,115.21 Year 4 $1315.95 Year 5 $1,552.82 And, when he finally paid after 6 yrs it should have been $1,832.32 Make that deafbeat cough up every penny or garnish his wages. 😀

"I don't do this with men very often" Tell that to Arnold Palmer's family. I want to take a shower (with heavy-duty soap) whenever I hear him drooling over someone of either sex.

And, if he had lost the election, around 45% of the country would be saying he was right about everything. The only reason he's losing their support is because they gave him the power to make their lives harder.

Last week I received a mailing from my State Senator. Inside had a list of useful resources for seniors. Outside it said "Happy Birthday, Jane". My reaction was "Who gave her staff permission to dig into my personal information?"

She wasn't aware of where her campaign's money is coming from but she wants the people of Maine to reelect her so she can continue as Chair of the Senate Appropriations Committee. She's certainly proving her qualifications.

They should have charged him 18% interest per year (it would have been about $1,900) and had him arrested. Let him see what his patients felt like.

This was at the time the Continental Army manned the air, rammed the ramparts, and took over the airports, right?

If you still say "AI", you should not vote for any Republicans as that party has designated you "the ENEMY".

He's doing everything he can to ensure mail votes are delayed, not delivered, or not counted. If any of his supporters were planning to vote in person and, instead, do as he asks, their votes may not get counted. The depth and breadth of his stupidity is sometimes awe-inspiring.

"DHS is NOT arresting U.S. citizens by mistake." True. They're doing it on purpose. They want us to be afraid to oppose them.

Wonderful news. AMC avian vets are absolutely the best. Maybe Rosie is English -- their parakeets are a lot larger than American ones. Does she chirp with a British accent?

He didn’t say "the country has the best economic numbers" or that his admin has resulted in... His personal net worth has risen by billions. I'm pretty sure no other president had economic numbers that good.

That's not a pardon. That's a sale.

Jane @poeia.bsky.social · 28/09/2026
We need a law that Presidential pardons must be for specific individuals (no groups) and they must be signed by hand by the President, no autopens. He'll get bored after signing them for his family and I don't want Stephen Miller or Hegseth using an autopen to pardon themselves.

Glad about the sale. The parking meter math caused my jaw to drop. $376,200,000 revenue to the city over 57 years $6,600,000 revenue per year That's the 5% the city gets. Annual revenue from the meters is therefore $132,000,000 36,000 meters so each brings in $3.7 million on average

America will never be a communist country, Trump brags as he demands obeisance & obeyance from more heads of industry lest they lose vital government contracts. Apparently, it's only communism if it's healthcare or other benefits to the citizenry. If it help him and his, it's not.

Is Rosie a "sit on your shoulder and groom your eyebrows before you leave" bird or does she hang out in the cage and tell you what to do from there?

Trump won Utah by more than 20 points. Both senators and all 4 representatives are Republicans. If the USPS is sabotaging mail-in votes there, they'll probably firebomb post offices in purple states.

Med schools next. Will anyone pay to go to a school that won't be accredited the day after Trump leaves? I wouldn't hire a lawyer who graduated from a school like that. Judges will probably side with their opponent on most objections.

I might try to walk it (Manhattan was designed to be walkable) but, unless you pass a bus stop or a park, there's nowhere to sit, rest and recuperate.

Bah! Humbug! As a New Yorker with somewhat limited mobility, being so anti-vehicles is a problem. I can leave an hour early for a bus or can cab it. On the last Summer Streets day I needed to go from near Bellevue to W 20th. Didn't make it but the loop to 34th & 3rd to 22nd & Park & home cost $65.

Of course he can talk. At least two Republican politicians reported having 20 minute phone conversations with him weeks ago. They wouldn't lie, would they?

To be fair, they tend to be blindsided by most of his announcements. He'll forget the promise the day after the election, so there's no problem. If he were going to stick to the idea, they'd have to support it, enthusiastically.

*sigh* He called a "TV station", not "a radio". Some day I'll post an entire thought with no typos. But not today.

Was the "2 firemen picked me up" or "my building is tallest" correct? According to Trump's contemporaneous account, he wasn't at the site. Also, he was disappointed that they closed the stock market. (Note that the anchors knew, even then, to lay the flattery on with a trowel.)

Even 25 yrs ago, when his narcissism and dementia were not as out of control as now, his reaction was to call a radio that his building, 40 Wall Street, had been the 2nd tallest in downtown Manhattan and was now the tallest. It wasn't. www.youtube.com/watch?v=PcKl...

Found her: Charlotte Jones - impressive resume. Maybe discount her job as executive vice president & chief brand officer of the Cowboys (daddy owns the team). She was once Chief of Staff for a GOP Congressman (she resigned when daddy endorsed an opponent). The museum seems non-partisan.

25 yrs ago he said he could see Arab-Americans celebrating on rooftops from his apt. I forget if he said Queens or NJ. Neither is visible from his apt. And he now owned the tallest bldg in lower Manhattan. (Also a lie.) Never mentioned his going to the site or bringing 100 workers. That's new.

About 9% of the resident in the 5 boroughs are Muslims. (I just looked it up.) I am willing to bet that about 9% of the people killed in those towers (including police and fire fighters) were also Muslim. The mayor of the city belongs at the memorial ceremony.

LDS is a stronghold of MAGA. They're alienating enough of their voters without telling Mike Lee he's not welcome.
