Looking like a sex doll ranks high in Trump administration hiring. This is also what Trump guys think they look like, only the male version. No?

The Republican response to this first moment told me everything I needed to know about Trump and his base.

Eisenhower was the last Republican president, if Lincoln had a say.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.
DWIGHT D. EISENHOWER, speech, March 6, 1956

The basest of the base. Lincoln weeps.

When the Know-Nothings get control, it will read "all men are created equal, except negroes, and foreigners, and catholics." When it comes to this I should prefer emigrating to some country where they make no pretense of loving liberty-to Russia, for instance, where despotism can be taken pure, and without the base alloy of hypocrisy.

You mean any point where Democrats hold sway. They don’t. The Republican Party is no longer a legitimate actor in American politics. It is a white male christian movement with no links to the moral human values we fought for in the Civil War and WWII: justice, freedom, equity. Ike saw them long ago.

Good grief. We need to hear some moral outrage at the very least.

Republicans aren’t afraid of socialism. They know they can pervert socialism left or right or left and right—as did Germany and Russia. But they are scared to death of democracy, of votes, of voters. Our best hope is to vote in the many, many millions against them.

Here on Bluesky we have created a helpful, self-policing newsgroup. The next step is to build an effective democracy movement here, with voices and votes dragging the Democratic Party left out of the Republican bonfire of the vanities. Movements energize and reform parties. Not the reverse.

Trump is buying “blood oil” from Putin rather than buying oil from Canada?

Prime Minister Carney speaks with President of the United States Donald J. Trump
October 11, 2026
Ottawa, Ontario
Today, the Prime Minister, Mark Carney, spoke with the President of the United States, Donald J. Trump.
The Prime Minister thanked the President for his leadership toward securing an energy ceasefire between Ukraine and Russia. He expressed Canada's strong support for this agreement and reiterated President Zelenskyy's call for Russia to uphold it.
It is imperative that all attacks on energy infrastructure and civilians cease immediately. Canada will continue to join allies in supporting Ukraine's defences and its citizens.
And we will continue to maximise our exports of oil and diesel to the United States that yield well over a million barrels of diesel per day.

Apple won’t do a car. Cars are passé. But it could do HomePod maxi, a mobile home for young and old. During the week, it resides in an urban facility Apple builds and rents. It’s all hooked up to the grid and close to paths and rails. During weekends, it sits on a lake hooked to a solar/batt array.

Marshall coughed up this month. Guilty.

The accusation that he "stiffed" someone relates to a story that surfaced in October 2026 involving a local Kansas bakery, Holly's Sweet Treats.

The bakery's owner posted online stating that six years earlier (during his 2020 primary campaign), Marshall's campaign placed a large order for treats and cookies for an election night watch
party.

According to the owner, the campaign ignored repeated efforts to collect on the nearly $700 bill, leaving the small business to absorb the loss. Jezebel

Hegseth does not know how to alpha. Sad, silly, unwoke ape. He thinks alphas scream and stomp endlessly. They don’t. Alphas don’t. Not other ape alphas. Not human ape alphas. Even if he did know, alpha skills are beyond his sordid, sodden brain. Alphas mostly attract; they don’t attack mindlessly.
