Clever naming from Smog City Brewing. (For non-Californians: a “smog check” is an auto tailpipe emissions verification after 7 years and every 2 years after that)

Photo of Melania Trump posing for the camera wearing a long coat, in a photo purporting to be publicity for her documentary, with the words, “Make Fuck Get Green Card. The Melania Trump Story” at the the bottom and a note in the lower right indicating the movie rating as “NC-17.”

Yet another example of Carl Demaio, our local GOP idiot in the State Assembly, being a Repugnican dickhead. The only things “reckless” here are you and Kirk.
From the Times of San Diego, 9/11/2025: “Assemblymember Carl DeMaio, R-San Diego, said he was ‘shaken and deeply saddened’ by the shooting. Then he shifted into criticism of Gov. Gavin Newsom and the media. But let’s be clear: this tragedy is not happening in a vacuum. When politicians like Governor Gavin Newsom and media outlets recklessly smear conservatives as ‘homophobic’ or ‘racist,’ they dehumanize people with differing views and fuel the fire that leads unstable individuals to commit acts of violence,” DeMaio said in a statement.

Yes, the true meaning of “moderate” is related to appearance and not actions, amirite?

All this tariff activity is an enormous attempt at mass servility. It’s all about getting the rest of the world to beg and pay attention. Needs his ego stroked.
