Blame SCOTUS. 1976: Buckley v Valeo. 2010: Citizens United. 1978: Belotti. 2024: McCutcheon. Accusation$ to both sides. It's also true that people have families under fire there. Again, it's both regimes + their propaganda creating division while shielding leaders. Like under Donald.
Holy moly! The reaction to yesterday is off the hook! I'll repeat my own mantra here: both Israel AND Gaza need regime change! A pox on Netanyahu/Likud AND Hamas! Oh, can you please turn up Sam's mic? I'm thinking he's dropping pearls like Sean's but it's too low to hear them.
While what's happening in the Middle East is awful, how many civilians have been bombed in Ukraine? Apartment blocks, hospitals, + civilian infrastructure? How many Russians have died in Putin's meat waves? Or were killed for fleeing? Life expectancy of 30 minutes at the front. Bueller?
@davemn80.bsky.social This one? From the title it looks critical at least. youtu.be/fkUOM2wRmV0?...
On a Graham free Monday we wonder about the condition of #MoscowMitch
@others98.bsky.social Appreciate your Facebook post about Larry David and Rob Reiner and the sketch they did for America's 250th. This piece should be aired for free, @hbomax.bsky.social! www.facebook.com/share/p/1H8x...
@deadlinewh.bsky.social Disappointed that you featured Jimmy Fallon commenting on Donald's State Fair Rally. ICYMI, he had Conor McGregor, a violent r@pist, on his show last week. There has been major backlash because of it.
Nice thought about Mourning Doves. The tail is wrong. Consultation of Stokes Field Guide I'm thinking Spotted Dove.
Proud that my late sister has a Getty Image! (We're not related to the photographer, Jack Mitchell.)
Mark Alford is my "representative" in Congress. Because of gerrymandering. After 2010 COMO/Boone County were tacked onto the edge of a Ruby Red rural district. After 2020 MO's GOP split us down the middle. columbiamissourian.com share.google/x3cpBaCd2DVt...
Sounded from his manifesto that he was fed up. I don't think Allen agreed to being part of a narrative. But Donald is a showman + ALWAYS has a narrative. His minions, toadies, + media enablers all know that + they know the main points. In this scenario Donald's bigly strong AND a victim.
How could he get as far as he did without being part of a narrative? As fishy as Butler. Donald's partly time share salesman + carnival barker. He only ever honestly made money as a showman on Apprentice where he pretended to be a successful businessman instead of a grifter who bankrupted casinos.
GOPsters might attend ribbon cuttings and pretend they supported these projects but rest assured that they voted against them.
@bellagerencser.bsky.social Don't feel so bad about prices (tho we do need higher wages). It's true that production of modern concerts is different. My sister had a 1968 VW Beetle. Gas wars led to steep price cuts. ~1970 she could fill it to the brim for $1.80 from empty. Here are some 1965 prices.
Pope Bob probably has some friends in Chicago who can defend the Vatican.
