NAMES O' THE DAY*
Bart Byrd, denied parole in the claw-hammer beating and decapitation of neighbor Julius Lust

*From the #LasVegas Sun, Aug. 4, 2009

Donald Trump is notorious for filing lawsuits at the drop of a hat. He's filed over 4,000 of them. Many for defamation.

But Donald *will not* sue Ted Lieu for defamation. Why? He's been told by lawyers that in defamation actions, truth is an absolute defense.

The word is "unloading."

No one "onloads" anything. It's load and unload.

I feel like it should be more widely unpopular that in the past year we’ve witnessed the creation of an American Stasi required to meet arrest quotas who utilize an AI technology created by a company run by a sweaty raisin of a billionaire who thinks Greta Thunberg is the antichrist.

A Democrat has won the mayor's seat in Boca Raton... by one vote:

This is why you should never say your vote doesn’t count, because you never know if you could be that one important vote!

Exclusive 1m ago The Trump administration will receive a $10 billion fee for brokering the deal that kept TikTok alive in the U.S.

JFC.

Impeach and remove this lawless man, you fools.

really stuck the landing here

Senator Warren: How much would it cost to extend the ACA’s enhanced premium tax credits for just one year? Witness: About $30 billion. Senator Warren: The Trump administration says this war [with Iran] will cost $50 billion. That means we could help all the people pushed off their health care and still have an additional $20 billion left over.

Instead of going to war with Iran, we could cover health care for millions of Americans.

And still have $20 billion left over.

The Trump administration could really restore confidence by getting the entire Cabinet to ride a tanker through the Straits of Hormuz to show everyone how safe and easy it is now.

They could bring along a lot of MAGA influencers and Fox News hosts to broadcast it all live!

THAT SINKING FEELING

But after more than five decades, they did.

You really need to watch this whole clip. It's amazing.
