MAGA customer told me today that she fears we may be heading to recession “because Trump inherited such a bad economy and he’s only doing what he thinks is right for this nation, but it may be too late.”  It takes so much energy to not tell her she’s a fucking moron. 

I was talking to my insurance rep in the Montgomery/Conroe area the other day. We live in Austin but they have a good rate. She's very competent in insurance stuff and really nice on the phone. Seems, or seemed like a good lady and not a complete idiot.We got to talking about all the wildfires after a fire question on my home coverage. Got off on a tangent about the fires they've been having around there. We'd never talked anything political before, and then she goes "I think ... what's the best way I can put this ... this stuff is all a result of the cloud seeding". 

Yeah, I know, makes less than zero sense. I was taken by surprise & my response was basically "Hah! Well, about that premium".  It's just amazing. Conroe gonna Conroe. Don't miss that place even a little bit.

And the response from the opposition needs to be "this administration is made of nothing but scum, who do nothing but lie to the good Americans who made the mistake of giving them power.  Imagine committing treason, risking the lives of our warfighters, and then trying to blame someone else for your betrayal of our country.  Scum and traitors, that's all these people are."

It’s like driving down the street, running into a light pole….then blaming the light pole.

It. Won't. Fucking. Matter.  This will be dead and buried within 2 weeks. 

It’s Wednesday and it’s already a non-issue for over half of the voting population that supported Trump.

Trumps EO mandating documented proof of citizenship excludes birth certificates and non-REAL ID drivers licenses.  Passports are OK though.  If only US citizens with passports voted I feel confident that this last election would have turned out far differently. 

 

How many people bring their birth certificate to the polls?

Turned on CNN and the first thing I saw was some bootlicker going “Well it’s not like they all deleted a bunch of emails from a private server!”

That’s true. It’s not like that at all. It’s much, much worse.

They're still clinging to "no classified information". I'm assuming that the identity of an undercover CIA agent would be considered classified? 

It works bc Trump can always say it’s not classified a la his document case.

problem solved.

Ratcliffe has already audience tested this in his testimony, noting that SecDef had original classification authority for DoD. It’s an incredibly tendentious argument but of course it worked once before.

I’m surprised it took this long. 

Democrats, if they ever return to office, need to get serious about some court-packing.

One thing, though, I believe it would be pretty difficult to "punish" a single judge, because the smallest "unit" Congress addresses is a judicial district.

So, they could punish the DC District Court, where Boasberg sits, but they'd also be punishing a number of Trumpy judges.

Plus, the side effects of further reducing the size and capability of the district courts would have severe ramifications for every day business in a system that is already underfunded, as we have discussed somewhat ad nauseam.

And, the federal district courts are pretty heavily relied upon by the oligarchs to protect their oligarchy.

Pete Hegseth: “That pole came out of nowhere. I had to swerve several times before I hit it.”

That's fine. Release the redacted info and we can determine whether it should have been classified or not.

This was for voter registration purposes, not voting at the polls.

They can spew all the bullshit they want, but I'm not sure how you defend this:

“We are currently clean on OPSEC”—that is, operational security."

Certainly that's the biggest laugh in the whole thing.

It was a non-issue for those morons one minute after it hit the news days ago.  That's the problem -- a huge chunk of our country is composed of imbeciles who don't care about objective facts.

Worst case scenario, even if nothing happens to Hegseth, Waltz, Tulsi, etc., this has to have substantially impacted the likelihood that troops would follow orders from them to fire on civilians. A soldier is a lot more likely to follow that order from someone he respects than from someone he knows is a drunk clown.

My dream would be for Judge Boasberg to schedule hearings with the DOJ on the Signalgate case and the El Salvador flight case back-to-back to highlight the utter hypocrisy / lunacy of the positions of the Trump administration.  Someone really deserves to get thrown in the clink for this bad faith bullshit, but it will never happen.

Yea they are def gonna turn on him. I’m sure of it this time.

But Laura Loomer--who not a single person has thought about for 6 months, since Trump summarily booted her from the campaign--is calling everyone but Trump out!

The "competent" person she is talking about is herself. This isn't maga turning on trump, it's just petty infighting bullshit like everything else from maga.
