Will Peter Baker Exhibit the Same Tenacity about Medical Records on the Trump Shooting as He Did a Parkinson's Conspiracy Theory?

At least 63 billionaires have now publicly endorsed Trump, hosted a fundraiser for him, or contributed to Trump aligned PACs.

Why are they rallying behind him? Tax cuts, mostly. But there's more.

The more Trump tears down democracy, the safer the oligarchy becomes.

Be warned.

Today's stressful thing I can do nothing about was a welcome break from the rest of the week's stressful thing I can do nothing about.

I'm not watching the RNC convention at the moment. Have they claimed the 2028 election is rigged yet?

It feels exactly like 2016 when Clinton voters completely trashed Bernie voters, told them to shut up and get in line, and then proceeded to lose the election.**

**and then proceeded to blame Bernie voters for that too with zero introspection.

What a crock of horseshit.

Don’t people understand? It works both ways. Sure, both of the guys at the top of the tickets are old. So in effect, we are voting for Harris, and they are voting for Vance.

Take your pick.

Buyers remorse and some rich white guy riding a rainbow unicorn in September is not going to cut it.

Okay, time to completely secede from social media.

Soo, I think the important thing to remember here is that the sex guru outlived the fitness guru by two whole decades.

Having the perverse thought of making a game that gets released only for Linux.
Let the windows people figure out how to make an emulator for that.

What has been the most vile, nauseating, putrid, disgusting piece of inhumanity that you've ever seen..

This is worse.....

Trump lawyers invoke immunity ruling in bid to toss hush money verdict

Donald Trump, conficted felon and poster boy for breaking the 10 Commandments, is an affront to justice.

When I cast my vote for President Biden, I wasn't expecting much. I just wanted trump out of office.

I knew he was old.
I knew he had a stutter.
I knew he had a rep for "gaffes."
I didn't care. Just wanted trump gone.

Four years later, things are different.
I wasn't expecting that President Biden would be the most legislatively successful President in my lifetime.

1/4

I doubt a single journalist, if put before the snarling White House press corps, would pass the absolute-perfection-in-diction test they're now demanding from Biden -- and routinely don't care about when it comes from word-salad Trump.

Such hypocrisy.
