Perhaps they shouldn’t have cut fire dept budgets to give more money to the Pig Empire’s jack booted thugs.

@tim Done. Thx for reminding me.

Search engines basically suck today. As recently as two years ago, it was pretty easy to find even the most obscure references after refining your search terms. (I mostly searched for vintage car, motorcycle, political, and rock music references)

These days it’s pathetic. You get 20 of the most recent uses of any key search term. I stopped using Google because of it, but now Duck Duck Go is just as lame.

@GottaLaff @WarnerCrocker
No. MAGA wanted to eliminate the debt ceiling so president musk could pass tax cuts without repercussions.

They also wanted to eliminate cancer research for kids, farm and disaster relief aid.

@Npars01 @GottaLaff
Nothing sums up musk better than this post by Rod Hilton.

@philip_cardella
If he wanted to get caught, why didn’t he just go get a latte and sit in Central Park and enjoy it until the NYPD found him?

I’m going with this guy is a patsy. The PTB can’t allow a class warrior to escape, even if they have to frame someone to close the case.

@ewen
The man that developed the Smugmug photo sharing/storing website/app had someone reverse engineer his code and patent it, subsequently attempting to charge him a licensing fee to use the software he had personally developed.

It took him several years and (probably) millions of dollars to fight him and eventually win. And nothing the guy did was illegal.

The last person tone executed in the old Sugarhouse Prison in SLC. The site of the current Sugarhouse Park.

FWIW, Joe Hill coined the term “Pie in the Sky.”

@msnbc @msnbc-msnbc
Still waiting for your apology for sanewashing Donold’s insanity while covering Biden’s age non-stop for 9 months until you badgered him to drop out.

@Npars01 @QasimRashid
This is the new reality: no accountability for oligarchs.
A Republican congress guarantees that nothing will come of it.
Get used to it. It’s going to get a lot worse before it gets better.

@WarnerCrocker @GottaLaff
It’s so sad that it’s come to that.

As I posted somewhere the other day:
The “Rule of Law” is an agreement. For it to mean anything, both sides need to comply.

When one side refuses, and the other side refuses to hold them to account, it’s nothing more than “a fart in a hurricane,” as a friend used to say.

@RickiTarr
Whooda thunk Donold and the couch fucker were going to be their own “October Surprise?”

@WarnerCrocker
Show of hands: who ever dreamt that believing in Democracy, the Constitution, and the Rule of Law would make you a “Radical Left Lunatic?”

How Bad It’s Become:

The crosstown rivalry football game between my HS Alma Mater and the newer HS in the wealthier part of town was cancelled tonight because of online threats towards coaching staff, players, and families from the newer high school student’s social media accts. Don’t know if the threats were racial in nature, or simply violent. I suspect the former.

Tired of “winning” yet MAGAts?
😂😂😂😂😖😖😖😢😢😢😢

Seth Abramson on the “Total War” republicans have waged ion democracy since 2000.

“In short, while an executive-branch insurrection was stopped—for now—on January 6, with easily replaceable foot-soldiers (but not any of their major leaders!) being held accountable for their crimes, the *judicial-branch* insurrection the MAGAs launched was a successful one.”

@EricLawton @Adam_Cadmon1 @cobalt
I’m not gonna lie, I find this seriously disturbing. I’m old enough to remember anti-war protests in 1968 propelling Nixon into the WH.

@RickiTarr
I think they’re confusing libraries with CPAC after parties.

@xadium @404mediaco @pluralistic
From where I’d sit, the so-called liberally biased MSM is collapsing in on itself due to its both-sidesism and its inability to call out the threat of the fascist GOP for what it is.

@AnarchoNinaWrites
But that’s the deal, it’s not “popular sentiment.” It’s a loud mouthed fascist minority.

(But that doesn’t mean I disagree)
