Please, less acronyms? I would like to know what's going on, but I'm not immersed in the news. I frequently don't know what they stand for. Acronyms are the enemy of clarity.

I almost always agree with you, but you are wrong on this.

Mr Johnson isn’t living in this life. He’s living in the make-believe life of his imagination.

We’re all different. My wife and I gave up after a few episodes.

Is ‘morally binding’ similar to ‘norms’ ?

I hate uncaptioned photos and videos. The name of this speaker remains a mystery. That’s a shame, because he deserves the credit.

There isn’t anything this administration respects except their own selfish, shortsighted ideas.

The DOJ looks on this as T-ball, and they are hoping for a participation trophy.

The medical group's schedule went awry because they were helping a patient. When it is your turn, don't you want that kind of help?

But Trump will still be President, with a veto pen. I think the energy to pass these laws will be wasted. We should do stuff that we can actually do.

Thanks for always naming the artist in your pposts. Too often paintings and photographs are presented on this site with no mention of the creator.

My first computer experience was in 1958 when I asked my Dad to check my arithmetic homework. He was a whiz at numbers.

Just so you know, Kentucky has been doing that for quite a few years now.

My congressman is James Comer. He’s the one peeking out of Trump’s shirt pocket. I have told him my views—- he doesn’t care. Comer wants to keep his pocket ride.

Because he has childish and irrational thoughts and he never has learned to control them. It’s getting worse.

How do folks read a post like this if you’re on a phone? For me it is unreadable.

This is a very wrong take by the Washington Post. Readers deserve better. It isn’t Canadian spite, it’s Canada fighting to keep a decent economy.

If you lower the price of a scarce item, the demand goes up and it becomes more scarce. There are answers to high diesel prices, but yours isn’t one of them.

He's likely to get views on YouTube than on his regular show. Plus the FCC's interference is shining more light on this interview. Censorship usually backfires!

“25 cents to manufacture” is misleading, and far from the whole story. But yes, $18,000 a month is immoral.

So….who is this?

So it is illegal but nothing happens? No consequences? As if it is T- ball

Inflation is not astronomically high. It is high, but not crazy. I remember 13 percent. When you exaggerate you weaken your case.

When you say “not my President” you are disrespecting the US constitution. He was elected. Unless you live in a different country, he is indeed your President.

Unless McConnell is dead, there is nothing that the Governor can do. Nothing. This is the second time Beshear has called out McConnell in the last few weeks, but the bully pulpit is Beshear's only move.

The Governor is milquetoast unless he breaks the law? What would he be then?

There is nothing the Governor can do unless the Senator dies.

Dave Quarles @qdave.bsky.social · 25/07/2026
If you look at Kentucky law, there isn’t anything he can do, legally. He has used the bully pulpit. Until McConnell is declared dead, the Governor has no legal moves.

I've listened to two statements from this guy, and I still don't know what he's saying. He has brought the art of non-reply to a high level.

The KY constitution says otherwise. The legislature can’t change the constitution with a simple law

This building is an architectural monstrosity , devoid of any grace. What were they thinking. Was Obama mad at Chicago?
