And there it is, a move to steal elections our in Georgia. It's a desperation play, and will almost certainly backfire...but it shows how committed MAGA forces are about thwarting the impending Democratic majority in Congress and takeover of state offices.

Stadium looking good, as is College Square if you haven’t seen it after the recent makeover. Also four F-15s low and loud in tight formation over Athens today, presumably practicing for a flyover tomorrow.

Think Hawks fans are going to warm up quickly to both these guys. Houston's upperclassmen all loved Flemings and Ejiofor plays his ass off.

According to chatter from putative insiders on the Dawgvent, this is an example of a phenomenon @alexkirshner.com and Richard have highlighted: a nouveau riche donor choosing to make a splash in a stepchild program rather than joining the back of the line for football.

See the thing is, Bama, you can do basketball on grass and run around and throw it and win games that way. But when you come up against these traditional football powers that are built along both lines of scrimmage, ya gotta be able to run the ball and stop the run. Lesson learned, I guess.

I’ve always thought the Mississippi Roast recipe sounded kind of … crazy? Yes, that’s just the word. Crazy. But you want something to go with the peas and greens and we’re playing Ole Miss so …

I really think that even most people who think language policing was a huge problem over the past 5-10 years have no patience for the disgusting little freaks who have tried to bring back "retarded" as a slur. It's just so low-rent and such a tell that the person using it is not worth your time

Since I knew Kirby could handle Ole Miss and Auburn on his own, I left the real Athens, where them Dawgs are, and went to the other one, with the round footballs. And there I found the Surrender Cobra, Archaic Greek edition. @hollyanderson.bsky.social is quite the classicist as it turns out. 750 BC

Honestly, this is my #1 objection to yesterday’s decision. SCOTUS had many, many opportunities to curb universal injunctions against the Biden administration. For four years, it refused. Then, almost as soon as Trump returned to office, it changed the rules to take away universal injunctions. Why?

Pure speculation, but possible that the admin's attack on the Library of Congress previews similar move against the Government Accountability Office (GAO)--also a leg branch agency w/ head (Comptroller General) appointed by WH. GAO has been more of a thorn in Trump's side, and a likely DOGE target.

Turning Qatar's Gifted 747 Into Air Force One Will Be Anything But Free
Trump rightly said only "a stupid person" would turn down the free Qatari jet, but turning it into Air Force One for a few years of service isn't realistic.

RedClayProdigal @redclayprodigal.bsky.social · 11/05/2025
The crudeness of the message to one side, much more serious is that the Library of Congress is not part of the executive branch, or even an independent agency. What’s next, will Trump purport to fire Senator Warnock’s legislative director?
