Journalists using soft language when discussing blatant reality bugs the shit out of me.
In a video shared by the congresswoman, Trump appeared to be shutting his eyes for a period of time while sitting in his seat at the game.
Just say he was sleeping. I get they do it to avoid libel lawsuits. But fuck it. It’s USA Today. Make him sue you and take you to court.
As an American, I visited Normandy and the people there were very kind and welcoming to Americans. You’ve gotta be a huge fuck up for the people there not to like you.
TLDW; billionaire Michael Bloomberg is behind multiple laws in mostly blue states to require spyware be added to all 3D printers under the banner of “gun control”.
He’s attempted to hide this as a grassroots effort, when in reality it’s nearly completely funded by him and his organizations. There’s a call to action to contact your representatives if that legislation is being proposed in your state and voice your opposition to letting billionaires control what you can and cannot 3d print.

The video specifically calls out Creality from a few years ago - and also the Bambu stuff recently.
I thought he made some interesting points about how ultimately this type of legislation is just encouraging 3D printer manufacturers to just abandon open source, something they’ve been trying to do for years.
This video perfectly summed up a lot of my thoughts from this post yesterday talking about a similar law in California.
There’s a saying that goes “A burden shared is a burden halved. A joy shared is a joy doubled.”
Having a few close friends makes bad times suck less and good times even better.
The IRS probe revolved around whether Trump doubled-dipped in cutting his taxes, according to a 2024 report by The New York Times and ProPublica — specifically whether he used the same losses from his Chicago skyscraper to cut them twice in future filings, a big no-no.
What the fuck kind of shit ass reporting is that? “A big no-no”? What are we, fucking toddlers? How about highly illegal and a felony deserving of prison time?
“Look, it’s not that I love it. You want to see farm prices drop. You want to see farmers lose a lot of money, just take that out of the market.”
What the fuck? How is this a real quote?
Super lame. Seems like Polis caved to the pressure Trump was putting on him. Always shitty to see the bad guys win.
Stop poking meeeeee!
Yeah, this is clearly a big deal. They started having an election and then cancelled the election after it had already started so they could redraw the districts and get a better outcome.
Could you imagine if they started voting for the presidential election and then they were like “hang on, we didn’t like where that was going. Pause for a few months so we can redraw the districts”? People would (rightfully) be losing their shit.
Good point about people resigning early. That would probably be a problem no matter what. If someone was at 16 years, they would probably be incentivized to retire early if they thought the next president wouldn’t be from their party.
Right now, judges almost never resign, so they just happen to die whenever most of the time, which allows conservatives to replace liberal judges and vice versa (in theory). Resigning early would likely be a huge problem.
Might have to do something like say each president gets to nominate a maximum of 2 justices. Those two justices being the people with the longest tenure on the court. If someone dies, that counts as nomination. If the president has already used their 2 nominations, then the next president will appoint a replacement.
Seems pretty straightforward. But do we really want to give Trump a chance to get 3 more justices that will rule the courts for the next 18 years?
Kennedy’s action comes at a time when many adherents of his Make America Healthy Again movement have adopted regular sun exposure as a core principle of wellness, with social media influencers encouraging followers to abandon sunscreen and build up their “solar callus,” or sun tolerance, instead.
This kind of bullshit makes me so angry.
They emptied our prisons into our country. They have mental institutions, insane asylums, into our country.
I’ve been saying for years now that Trump doesn’t understand the difference between insane asylums and political asylum. I wish the media would make this connection and call him out on it.
Leopards eating good.
See Latinos for Trump.
Almost as if the Founders who wrote the 1st amendment could see this coming.
