‘Twas Brillig
Prone to posting about politics or pictures of my cat. You have been warned. I strive to always include at least one misspelled word or grammatical error per post.
- Trump was just negotiating with Saudi Arabia, the country responsible for 9/11 and dismembering a Washington Post journalist. And took a $400 million bribe from the country that finances Hamas, famous for its hostage taking. So take a seat, you crazy, white supremacist bitch.
- [Not loaded yet]
- And the Qatari royal family has been unsuccessfully trying to sell it for five years.
- *truth
- Anyone who has worked on intelligence matters understands the importance of apolitical analysis and speaking truth to power. In firing intel officials who did just that, Gabbard proved once again that she is unfit for her position.
- Always telling on himself.
- When shooting your dog in the face isn’t the worst thing you ever did.
- This dog politely asked for a musician's drumstick in the middle of their performance. Always excited to find a fellow stick lover. 12/10
- For those of us in America......that actually READ some of the books they want destroyed......
- I don’t want to read about a former President’s mental decline because a journalist got a book deal. I want to read a report about the current President’s mental decline by a journalist brave enough to speak out now.
- Here's Imotekh in all his rainbow glory. I'm tentatively planning a new project, which I will do despite my stomach. And to cheer me up, yep, it's going to be rainbows. 😁
- Today May 15th is Peace Officers Memorial Day. Statements like this are inflammatory, disrespectful and flat out lies. Not only did you betray law enforcement, but you sided with people who attacked us. You don't support law enforcement, you are are a criminal.

- Just a reminder for any member of Congress who seems to have forgotten...
- It would be stupid not to accept a gift of a free plane? Donold, let me tell you a story about a wooden horse...
- That is in fact what this administration has done.
- Please enjoy these shelter pups reacting to getting a kiss. Some are bashful, some have butterflies, and all deserve approximately 10 million more. 14/10 for all
- So Trump gets a $400 million plane to take with him when he leaves office and Qatar walks away with $1.2 trillion in deals. A win-win for them, just not for the American public.
- We 👏 Still 👏 Don’t 👏 Know 👏What 👏 Kash 👏 Patel 👏 Did 👏 as 👏 a 👏 Consultant 👏 for 👏 Qatar
- Who could've guessed joining a make-believe Resistance against an Evil Empire would ever happen in real life?

- Trump's family has deals to build luxury resorts and hotels in Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and Oman. And their crypto firm will be used by the UAE to make a $2B deal — netting the Trumps hundreds of millions of dollars. His "diplomatic trips" are blatant self-enrichment opportunities.
- This is unconscionable. I can't tell you how important subsidies are to the ACA. When you're gravely ill and on the transplant waiting list, like I was, you're unable to work, for obvious reasons, so these subsidies are a literal lifeline. (1/2)…
- SHOCKING! The Republican bill does NOT ban tax on tips or overtime. But it does snatch healthcare from millions of Americans to give tax cuts to billionaires! But go ahead, tell us again how Republicans are “pro-family” and “pro-worker.” Video: @repgreglandsman.bsky.social
- When Speaker Mike Johnson was questioned on whether he's concerned about the Trump family’s foreign business dealings, he lied outright. He deflected to talking about the "Biden crime family"—despite an expansive 300-page report released by Republicans failing to produce any evidence of corruption.
- Ben of Ben & Jerry’s *arrested* after confronting RFK Jr. & Congress: "They need to let food into Gaza. They need to let food to starving kids! Congress is paying to bomb poor kids in Gaza, and paying for it by kicking poor kids off Medicaid in the US!"
- Many American voters are likely to excessively overcorrect from 2024-2025 to look for honest, authentic, effective, consistent communicators who don’t rely on slogans and platitudes in 2026-28. They aren’t plentiful.

- It's great to be back in Cedar Rapids.
- We didn’t forget about journalist Jamal Khashoggi, did we? Murdered inside a Saudi consulate. Dismembered. Then a full-on coverup, sanctioned at the highest levels.
- Under court order, the government has released a nearly unredacted copy of the memorandum of understanding between the IRS and Homeland Security revealing how taxpayer data was shared for immigration enforcement.
- This is utter nonsense Medicaid is a needs based program If any American doesn’t have sufficient resources, they qualify-even if they’re working So if Mike Johnson wants to remove employed, “able bodied young men” from Medicaid, there’s a simple fix Raise the minimum wage But of course-he won’t
- I had some new headshots taken, and my donkey would not get out of the way, so I ended up taking a couple with him. Gus❤️
- Ruby Bridges
- Nearly 470,000 people in the Gaza Strip, or approximately one in five of its residents, could starve to death in the coming months under Israel’s total aid blockade, according to a new report. New @motherjones.com: www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
- NEW: A Pennsylvania court ruled that the Trump administration may send immigrants to El Salvador using a wartime authority during peacetime if they are given 21 days notice. We’ll keep fighting to protect immigrants’ rights and ensure no one is sent to prison in another country.
- wow, wonder who was president when no one was flying during covid?
- Miller says Trump may try to suspend the constitutional right to bring habeas corpus petitions because Trump does not like how some judges are ruling on habeas corpus petitions. That is a confession of a tyrannical purpose.
- "Miller's trial balloon about suspending habeas is especially authoritarian because that right is so ancient, so core to the very concept of justice, and so necessary to preserve the separation of powers." www.publicnotice.co/p/stephen-mi...
- my kingdom for anyone on the “dems should take culturally moderate positions” to explain what this actually means in practice? www.thebulwark.com/p/hard-calls...
- I'm tired of partyless republicans telling the democrats how to be.
- The proposal moving through Congress would be the biggest cut to Medicaid in history and kick millions off their health coverage.
- If you're shocked about corruption in American politics, I invite you to take a gander at our campaign finance "system."
- The Guardian editorial board finally admits that there is genocide happening in occupied Palestine. "Now it plans a Gaza without Palestinians. What is this, if not genocidal? When will the US and its allies act to stop the horror, if not now?"
- Cleveland didn’t take it home with him. BTW, Congress voted to accept the gift. It was hardly a bribe.
- For this industry to mean anything we have got to stand together to protect artists, journalists, and the subjects of work to be safe and stand up together when they are not.
- Chris Murphy: "I just don't know that our Republican colleagues will ever break. This is a cult that operates like a cult, and for the time being, if Donald Trump says that black is white or 1+1=5, the Republican Party is gonna agree with him."
