That’s two of us so far who remember that. I wonder how many more? Six years is a looong time in American memories.

He is using big numbers to make it sound impressive...300,000 tons of diesel is 2.2 million barrels....that is less than 1/10 the diesel the world uses in a single day...This literally does NOTHING but give money to Putin...

Thank you. Good grief. I suppose it could be said Jeffrey Dahmer had "unusual culinary preferences" too.

Women at the Cornish Coast by Laura Knight. (The artist painted a number of these scenes around 1917. There are never any men in them, because all their men had gone off to war. Once you know that, it gives the initial romaticism a thought-provoking subtext.)

I’m a CA native transplanted to Georgia and we’re probably going to end up with a billionaire governor next month who promises to be a southern Trump. Now that’s what “out of step” looks like.

Wait, I've been under the impression that he was the, you know, 'distance donor' for most of those babies. You're saying they all involved real interpersonal, uh, connections? Yeesh.

I strongly encourage Republicans to run on this message!
Screen shot of a Fox News clip with Trump economic adviser Kevin Hassett saying: "The higher mortgage rates are actually a good sign for the economy because corporations are borrowing money to build things like data centers instead of lending to homeowners."

A reminder that KKK criminal Ken Paxton offered a 1 day prison sentence in Texas for a child rapist and a judge gave that rapist a 60 day sentence which ended up being reduced to 29 days for good behavior. Ken provides protection for pedophiles as well as crooks.

Already there for me. Although I’m happy to say, I live in the generally red northern suburbs of Atlanta and have seen exactly one being worn. One. And that was around the time they first came out in trump’s first term.

OK, but what I’ve noticed in decades of voting is too many Dems just won’t let go of the purity tests for the general. VA ‘21 for exmpl - “just couldn’t accept” McAuliffe then gnashed their teeth over Youngkin. And ‘25, because Kamala something or other. Always gotta try to punish party leadership.

Exactly. He said not long ago that Putin had explained NATO to him calling it a paper tiger. His thoughts and opinions are all spoon-fed to him by dictators and autocrats.

And the former Rep from my House district, Tom Price, resigned when it came out he was using charter planes to fly everywhere. That was early in trump's first term. Waste, fraud, and abuse has been rampant since he first came to office. Oh, but they're the party of "Fiscal Responsibility", you know.

I don't think that included his soundproof booth for private messaging which was around double that cost, in my recollection. Oh, and don't forget the "tactical pants" he bought to the tune of several thousand $. And using his title and influence to try to get a Chik-fil-A franchise for his wife.

Too bad they won't do a 30-day blackout like they did with Sarah Palin. That was the beginning of the end for her ridiculous bullhorn.

Look, I know saying “it’s not all of us” is just jeered at now so I won’t try. But I will say that not all of you in other countries see your own vulnerability to this hideous trend. It’s worldwide now and has been for a long time.

I never watch that channel let alone on weekends so I didn’t know he existed until Trump picked him. But if you remember David Hackworth you’ll recognize the term “Perfumed Prince”. Fits him to a “T”.
