JK Rowling is a "sofa" only if she still does laundry in a laundromat. Shes turned her skill with fiction into full-time gaslighting.

Cardi B defends cursing out production team at show? Like a mountaineer half way down an abseil cursing out the teammate responsible for her belay. Shit happens.

In his presidential immunity opinion, Chief Justice Roberts accused Justice Sotomayor and the two other Democratic-appointed justices who joined her in dissent, of “fearmongering on the basis of extreme hypotheticals.”

He's wrong. Let me explain. https://t.co/q7LEVH6z0m

The lying here is by John Roberts. He is gaslighting his liberal - women - colleagues and the public. He knows exactly what the most obvious implications are of his carefully crafted opinion.

If anything, the dissents by his liberal colleagues underestimate the potential harm from the path he's chosen.

Why has he chosen to be a closet insurrectionist? Only his patrons know for sure. Whatever the reason, it has SFA to do with the law.

The only "unity" Trump knows is the unity of one: Donald Trump.

If Athing Mu were a CEO, falling in a single qualifying race, despite her being a world champion, would earn her a raise, a hefty bonus, and a renewed, long-term contract.

Why aren't Dallas Cowboy cheerleaders paid well, despite their success in selling the team? Let me think. They're woman? They work for a living rather than clip coupons and check the price of sweet crude every hour? Or, is it just because they're employees?

If Trump wanted to articulate a message about his debate goals, Leavitt would have stated them clearly and fully. He didn't, because he hasn't any.

Left by Trump with nothing to sell except victimhood and speechless outrage, that's the position Leavitt maneuvered herself into.

The American Constitution's explicit aspiration, extraordinary for its time, is that govt should neither favor nor disfavor one religion, all religions, or no religion.

Insurrectionist American fundamentalists, however, whom Trump has drafted as his army, want to reinvent that law and history. They want to impose their religion on all others. They want the state subject to their religion so they can use its physical and legal powers to make that a reality. All else is commentary.

Donald Trump tried to steal the election in 2020 and, by all accounts, he and his MAGA minions are going to try again in 2024. But how likely is it that they'll succeed? The good news is that since 2020 we have some new guardrails in place to make it even harder for them to overturn another Biden win. Learn more over at The Big Picture. https://thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p/trump-overturn-biden-election-2024

The resources Trump had to steal the election in 2020 pale in comparison to the orchestrated GOP and billionaire led resources he has to steal it in 2024.

Donald Trump wants to be president, President Snow. He wants to inaugurate an Immigrant Hunger Games.

Presumably, the winner gets a week's worth of food, a temporary visa, and an unpaid internship mowing the fairways on a Trump golf course.

These things are not jokes with him, but he is trying them on for size, to gauge their popularity. He's a psychopath.

One of the richest men in the 1920s was Andrew Mellon — an early prophet of trickle-down economics.

Yesterday we learned that his grandson, Timothy Mellon, gave a Trump super PAC one of the largest political donations ever.

This is how dynastic wealth works.

Wealth tax now.

As rapacious as Andrew Mellon was, he made his money. All grandson Tim Mellon knows how to do is spend it.

Will the GOP try to steal the 2024 election? After the events of January 6, 2021, it's only natural to question the lengths Trump and his MAGA movement will go to secure a victory, regardless of the vote count. However, there's hope. Today on The Big Picture, writer Jay Kuo discusses the guardrails now in place to protect our democracy. But a threat still looms. Stay informed and prepared. https://thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p/trump-overturn-biden-election-2024

@georgetakei

The answer to whether the GOP, meaning Trump, will try to steal the 2024 election seems obvious.

They will bury the system with hundreds of lawsuits. They will work hard not to count the vote in districts Trump will lose. They will try not to certify election results.

They will try anything to throw the decision to the House, where they have an arithmetic advantage, because it votes by state and the GOP controls more states, though they represent far fewer voters.
