The fact that the president's doctors are giving him the dementia test over and over again -- tracking his decline, most likely -- and that the president keeps bragging about having to take that test should be a five-alarm fire.
Trump: "You know, the first question -- they have a lion, a snake, a giraffe, and a bear. And they say 'which is the snake?' ... by the time you get to number five a lot of people are left out on the road ... I get no credit for it."

"This is such bad news, such a devastating historic event all I can say is that it's utter bullshit. Anyone who participated in this travesty should be ashamed."

SCOOP: 'Tommy' from the now-viral exchange with Abdul El-Sayed is Thomas Teepell, a former staffer for Republican Senator Josh Hawley with close ties to Christian Nationalist Sean Feucht. He's the son of a former Bobby Jindal staffer whose consultant work was instrumental in getting Hawley elected.

Let’s help a fascist regime that never deals in good faith to bring it back to a negotiating table to make a deal it won’t honor. Or you could punch a bully in the nose as hard as you can.
❗️The Trump administration is proposing that Europe resume buying more Russian gas as part of a potential Ukraine peace deal, NYT reports. Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff have raised restarting Russian gas pipelines through Ukraine with Ukrainian and European officials. #Ukraine

Can a chunk of dry ice make spooky fun AND carbonate your drink? 🧊🎃🧪 @wolfscience.bsky.social proves it does both, starting with how this -109°F solid carbon dioxide sublimates straight from a solid to a gas. #ScienceExperiments #Science #Chemistry #DryIce #DIY
She is not a moderate. She toes the line whenever necessary, and votes performatively otherwise.
Q: Can you name a time when you voted against Trump and it changed the outcome? SUSAN COLLINS: At one point, I had organized people to vote against Sec. Hegseth. At the very last minute one of our Republicans changed his mind. Otherwise he would've been defeated. Q: So it didn't change the outcome

Some editor's notes for DJT: The Great State of Minnesota is being overrun by fascists. There is Violence, Murder, and Mayhem all over the State. The people of Minnesota must fight back. You have been robbed, and abandoned by your Federal Government. Your President is thief, and incompetent leader.
Trump is desperately trying to incite a riot before the election so he can declare an emergency
Susan Collins: "We all wrote to the Inspector Generals!" That we allowed Donald to castrate. A useless gesture by a separate branch of government exercising NO CHECKS AND NO BALANCES. Fuck off Susan Collins. Fuck all the way off. Borrow the pair you let them take from the ISGs.
Troy Jackson: "The gentleman's name was Johan Sebastian Guerrero. He had a 3 year old daughter. The only mistake he made that morning was going to work. Because Sen. Collins is not willing to stand up to Donald Trump, he was murdered in the streets of Biddeford for doing nothing wrong."

Read the thread. Totally plausible. Unfortunately, so is the deniability.
Dr. Oz is on my flight right now. He is sitting in the very first seat, front row. I saw him get on the plane. So when I stepped off the jetway onto the plane I approached him and put my hand out. What the man in charge of healthcare for the people on the very margins of society said…was revealing

80 hours of embroidery! This aerial landscape is directly inspired by Dartmoor and I'd say I have another 30-ish hours to go? I'm now starting to fill in the fields for the sheep, the tor area will be done last as I'm still deciding whether I want a slope or not 😅 I hope you like it! #art

A story of hope and despair. Systemic shittiness, some people being forced to fight too hard, and a helping hand at the end of a long, dark tunnel.
Teressa found herself raging at what she labeled the insurance company’s “weaponized incompetence.” Fax numbers were wrong. Key records were no longer available online. The insurer wouldn’t even give her access to her husband’s medical records. (Published Sept. 2025)

This is, bar none, the stupidest fuckung thing I’ve ever heard. And the idea that there’s nobody in the chain of command - civilian or military - with enough courage to say so is a disgrace.
