In which we yet again post yet another ten thousand plus interesting or amusing -or neither- tweets

The New York Times everyone!

 

This reminds me of the time in 1987 when a friend and I went to see Indigo Girls. We had no idea about their fanbase, we just liked their music. This may have been even before Closer to Fine. So we walk in and very quickly notice tons of female couples wearing flannel and having extremely short hair on the side. It wasn’t what we were expecting. I turned to my friend and said Rob, I don’t think we’re in Kansas anymore.

my point is, an Indigo Girls gig is the last friggin place on earth you’d find a gay dude. But be prepared for this piece of bullshit.

I wonder if any of this is true

Trump: "You cannot get into a hospital, by the way. Because the migrants have all the beds. You cannot get into a hospital. You cannot get your kids into a school because there are migrants there that don't even speak the language ... they're getting precedent over your children" pic.twitter.com/GamVQqtC66

The Trump campaign had a “concept” of a transportation plan for his Coachella rally. 🤣🤣 https://t.co/UrIarPl43b

If the Democrats do the exact same thing, will that be considered violent by MAGA? Without question. Without question.

LOL she went there. Man, talk about going hard to the paint. Dayum.

I invite the public to watch Trump's rallies and be the decision-maker on his acuity. https://t.co/g4ft0YKJyI

Remember this if anyone posts a tweet of Jennings destroying or exposing or crushing someone in CNN, remember this abject lack of vertebrae.

FLASHBACK

On Jan 6. Pro-Trump CNN contributor Scott Jennings suggested Trump might need to resign from office:

“He clearly violated his oath of office to preserve, protect & defend the constitution…it was an insurrection. & it should be labeled as such”pic.twitter.com/gHxyo9w2xW

Who doesn’t like a delicious but unfounded rumor. My own take is, I have questions about Butker’s beard. I mean the one on his face. That’s as far as I’m going. For now.

My ex-husband was in the closet. I've learned to spot the signs of men who are grappling with their sexual orientation....that's all I'm typing. https://t.co/1EG8KY4hGw

Because federal election law requires that no changes to the voter rolls can occur 90 days before the election. You are breaking the law. https://t.co/w3qwEsKTzG

It’s good news I think, in terms of Harris winning, but this is bad news in terms of avoiding extensive violence after the voting. Pennsylvania has an insane law that prohibits them form even oreooong mail in ballots for counting. So all the really reporting of results is going to have a heavy GOP skew, and then as mail in votes get counted, if Pennsylvania is like Florida in 2000 or Ohio in 2004, look out.

If it comes down to one state (and there’s a very realistic scenario where it does!) and that state is Pennsylvania, buckle up kids. And make a plan for how far you are willing to go if the USSC installs Trump.

Not saying it will happen but it might.

I feel like I wrote basically the same post a couple weeks ago.

Want to ruin the Trump campaign’s vibe today?

Let them know Wyoming County, in northeast Pennsylvania, which Donald Trump won with 67% of the vote in 2020, currently shows Democratic turnout at 14.7%, more than DOUBLE the 6.3% Republican turnout rate so far in early voting.

The his is an issue where Biden’s basic approach, to stay in the middle of the party in terms of ideology, has been bad. My understand of the Ukraine war is that we have excavated so slowly in terms of what we allow Ukraine to do that it has allowed to Russia to avoid any shocks to the system. Everything is gradual so nothing shocks Russia into thinking about peace.

Weakness leads to escalation. The innocent blood of the Ukrainians killed in these arracks is on the hands of Biden, Scholz, and other Western leaders who refuse to provide what is needed to stop them. https://t.co/IW5JUJUDX5

Riley Gaines ... at least she's consistent with her hypocritical anti-LGBT+ activism. She's making the most of her celebrity "victimhood".

 

HARRIS: I’m going to expand the child tax credit to $5,000 dollars

MEDIA: How ya gonna pay for that?

TRUMP: I’m gonna deport 25, 30 million people

MEDIA: Sounds good

Project 2026: the prosecution of every criminal act by Trump’s supporters if they use violence to try to overturn the 2024 election.

No more Merrick Garland pussyfooting.

It is long past the moment when mainstream journalistic assessments of the Republican nominee to helm this republic should plainly refer to him as a fascist. The hate-speech erupting from him day after day is no longer simply provocative or extreme or confrontational, or even… https://t.co/Qx521m22qH

Those of us with any idealism left have it on life support.

As David Jolly said a while back on MSNBC, what we’ve learned is how many people don’t mind fascism if they’re part of the favored group. It’s crushing.

To those of you missing out on the joys of being a swing state, Trump is basically focusing on immigration, taxes, and trans people , in that order.

You are NOT a “Bernie Sanders Progressive” if you are voting for Stein.

You are a “Vladimir Putin Progressive.”

Thanks for coming to my TED Talk.

More than that…how many living vice presidents support Trump? Isn’t the answer zero? Maybe Quayle, but not Gore, Cheney, Biden, nor Pence or Harris.

 

I think you should stop slandering Dan Quayle, the guy who convinced Mike Pence to do the right thing on January 6th.

Not all have an IRA, 401(k) or stock portfolio. But many do. Dow 42,000 has been berry, berry good to you.
