He fomented an insurrection. He botched a pandemic. He stole classified documents. He committed every type of fraud known to man. He is compromised. He protects pedophiles. He's a 34-time convicted felon. He's an adjudicated rapist, who paid his victim $5.6M so far. He monetizes the presidency and weaponizes justice. He's lawless. He obstructs justice at every turn. He lies as he breathes. He's narcissistic. He's psychopathic. He's paranoid. He's sadistic. I can go on. YET - no matter how bad we know he is, and no matter how bad the things we know he did are, remember this: Some of the things we don't yet know he did, are even worse.

Many of us believe, as do I, if you’re beholden to AIPAC/Big Pharma/Oil/Banks you’re a corporatist, not a Democrat. Please get out of the new road if you can’t lend your hand, for the times, they are a-changin’.
Karl: Josh Gottheimer, a Democratic member of Congress, who says, “Many of us believe, as do I, if you’re a socialist, you are not a Democrat.” And in fact, they put out a manifesto today. Mamdani: Sounds pretty socialist to me…. I'm not interested in writing a manifesto or frankly, in reading one. I'm interested in delivering. And that's exactly what we've been showing.

How great must the writing on Cheers and Frasier have been to make this clod seem bright?
Kelsey Grammer has praised Trump as "extraordinary" and called him "one of the greatest presidents we've ever had". …..Kelsey needs to see a doctor

Should have happened after the second half collapse last season

Ahhh, yes. The days when corruption was frowned upon. How quaint.
JD Vance on Nixon: "I think Nixon's historical legacy is enjoying a bit of a renaissance, and deservedly so. I joked that if Watergate happened tomorrow, it would be like a 12 hours news story. The idea that it took down a presidency is crazy."

Math is hard
Karoline Leavitt: “Under President Trump the U.S. unemployment rate is at a historic low of just 4.3%. It was at a dismal rate of 3.4% under Biden.”🙄

Just say you were wrong and move on. Is it really that difficult?
Becky Hammon says she’s not apologizing to Jalen Brunson “Jalen, all he did was prove history wrong. He proves he’s an outlier, so you can put his name next to Steph Curry and Isiah Thomas, and I thought he played brilliantly, especially down the stretch. I mean, he was that 1A dude, but apologize? I’m never gonna apologize for having an opinion. That’s what ESPN pays me for.” (Via @madkenney )

Or, you can examine all the evidence and conclude Vitello is unfit for the job
Duane Kuiper on Giants manager Tony Vitello: “I’ve been in this game a long time and I’ve never seen one guy like Tony Vitello, where across the country in the baseball world, they’re all hoping that he fails. It really is too bad for the guy. Here he is, he’s trying to do the best he can and everybody in the country wants him to fail because he’s a college guy. They can’t wait for things to go sideways and then they’re gonna go after it and that’s basically what’s happened.” via: @KNBR

Colombo-like work here.

How did a country of 300 million mostly honest, hardworking people end up with so many leaders who are corrupt?

It’s important that you understand what happened last night. Last night, Stephen Colbert interviewed Democratic Texas Senate candidate James Talarico, a candidate who, by all accounts, is on track in the polls to flip Texas blue. In response, Trump’s FCC reportedly threatened CBS if the interview aired. CBS caved and pulled the segment, citing “financial reasons.” In modern American history, no president has been more hostile to free speech than Donald Trump. But censorship always backfires. Here’s the full segment Trump didn’t want you to see.

George Conway: “Donald Trump is a man who represents all the things we teach our children not to be. He’s a liar. He’s a thief. He’s a molester. He has no remorse, no shame, no empathy. He has no loyalty to the law, to the Constitution. This man is the lowest character of all”
