Know that if Ken Paxton manages to get elected a US Senator, he will be allowed to escalate his criminal game by orders of magnitude.

Rogers looks like he's taking it well. It's kinda fun watching these guys get called out, item by item, and all they can do is stand there, squirm, and make faces. I think we've had about enough of Republicans.

It's kind of an interesting self-reveal because you have to be very unfamiliar with schools if you believe they have surgical units hiding in their cloak rooms. Also, maybe you're afraid of schools because that's where you discovered long ago how stupid you really are.

What people fail to realize is that Trump equates power with inflicting humiliation. He doesn't respect his supplicants, they disgust him. He wants us to know he hates us, he wants us to take it and bow to his will anyway. It's the only way he can be sure he's won. He's a sadist to his core.

Trump Directed Use of Taxpayer Money for Ads Praising His Presidency
The government-funded ads show just how much President Trump has been able to use federal money for his own aims.

As we think about reforms that will save us from this GOP hell, the law should put the onus on those who want to reject ballots, not those who want to vote. Force these 'ballot cops' to prove EACH removal is legit, with paperwork. Each claim. Require informing the voter. Otherwise, STFU.

A few noncitizen votes are a scandal. But thousands of rejected ballots are business as usual
One state rejected ballots because some voters failed to include their mother’s maiden name on the back of the return envelope.

What's hard to believe is how Donald Trump was able to fill his Cabinet with misfits and freaks even stupider and more clueless than he is. Yet, he's managed.

Not to split hairs, but I think this is the narcissism talking, not the dementia. Trump thinks he can hide how stupid he really is, but being a Dunning-Kruger poster boy, he usually does the opposite. He's been bragging about the MIT uncle for years. It's one of his security blankets. Sad.

Not to be too negative, but I think this pathetic piece of shit is going to by spending many many years in prison. He is not just an incompetent hack. He is a mass murderer. As is his boss.

Just keeping everybody up to date. At my CA corner station, diesel is still holding at $8.99, but regular is now up to $6.99. Call it $7.

There are a few things to worry about that will still be here post-Trump. (sharing one of my favorite cartoons)
"Bugs on the windshield" cartoon. 3 panes. First says 1990 and shows lots of bugs on the windshield. Second says 2020 and shows no bugs and a smiling driver. Third says 2050 and the car is empty. The message: first the climate kills off the bugs, then it kills off us.

Krugman lays out the challenge of the path before us this morning. The midterms are just the start of a steep climb back to sanity. paulkrugman.substack.com/p/its-underw...
There is a straight line from Koch Brothers money, allied with segregationists and religious fundamentalists, that runs through the Federalist Society and the Roberts Supreme Court, through the MAGA-fied Republican Party, through the crypto-industry and the tech-broligarchy, that leads to Trump. And it will take a single-minded, fearless and incorruptible new generation of Democrats to defeat this many-headed hydra.

No, it's something he think he can make money off of. That's as far as his thinking ever goes. The guy can smell a potential grift a mile away. It is his one superpower.

Obviously the right wing troll squad will stay no matter what, but Trump has no respect for them b/c they are his dogs. But if some biggies walked out, say NYT and WSJ, plus a couple of networks (NBC? probably not "Fox-lite" CBS), he would totally freak out. Attention is his oxygen.

The media loves nothing more than to report about itself and how it is being picked on. Trump knows this better than most. If you want to get the mainstream media to stop talking about the Epstein Files, give it a story about itself. Then sit back and enjoy.

Gas is $6.45 for regular at the pump on my corner in NorCal. Diesel is $7.99. Every gas station is now a real-time anti-Republican midterm election billboard.

"It's a hoax" is what Donald Trump says about anything that exposes his stupidity, arrogance, or criminality. Oh, and the rapey stuff, let's not forget the rapey stuff.

Thing is, whether he doesn't understand or doesn't care or is doing someone else's bidding, the behavior is the same. Whichever, he needs to be blocked, isolated, and removed.

Some Dem should quietly whisper in the ears of USPS leadership: Your boss may be immune from prosecution, but you are going to spend the rest of your life in jail if you participate in this conspiracy to obstruct an American election. When we take back Congress, we will make it a priority.

It will be more fun to impeach from the bottom up. Start with the criminals in the cabinet: Hegseth, RFK, etc. Throw in Jared & Wittkopf. Don't forget SCOTUS bribe-takers, Alito & Thomas. Just leave the orange buffoon dangling, powerless, neutered. Give "lame duck" a whole new level of meaning.

Trump says U.S. growth could hit 20%. It’s happened only once since WWII
Trump argued rapid growth should not prompt Fed rate hikes, even as inflation remains above the central bank’s 2% target.

Can we please just make the fascist label as toxic as the socialist label? And while we're at it, let's not forget the felon label, the rapist label, the fraudster label, the kleptocrat label, the pedophile label, and the traitor label. Have I missed anything?

Under Jeffries, our community-terrorizing, constitution-violating, human-hunting Gestapo will be the most politically-correct Gestapo the world has ever known! When OUR Gestapo drag away your husband, wife, child, or neighbor, they will do so with no masks, so you can see their smiling faces.
