Alex Karp is trying to get into the Democratic tent and I'm here to say no thanks. I'm all about the Big Tent but this child murderer can stay outside as I'm not interested in having his kind. My suggestion to a few buddies was that he can sleep outside of our tent under a Starlink lit sky.

Gym Jordan will be leading the minority party in the house for the upcoming term which is great if you aren't a wrestler. I'm not a fan of old Gym mostly because he's an awful piece of shit but also because he looks like a jackass never wearing a jacket. We should make sure Gym is always properly dressed.

Who would have thought that Trump was going to be responsible for one of the biggest green movements by reducing carbon emissions. Sadly it will be due to the fact that millions of people will have suffered but I guess we should give him crest for making diesel so expensive that no heavy machinery can operate any longer Donald J Trump champion of the environment.

I'm convinced that this world is now inhabited by about a dozen people and the rest of us are all just paws I. Their little game. Between Zuck, Altman, Musk, Huang, Putin, Trump, Xi, MBS, Bezos and a couple of others we basically can put all these people in a single room and if somebody locked the door, the world would just be better off. Corporate capitalism is the root of almost all what is wrong in this world and these dozen or so are to blame

There is a theory that Trump was told he should consider Dana White for press secretary who works in a similar roll for the DOD. Of course Trump wasn't paying attention and immediately thought of the other Dana White and thought this would be an amazing idea one that could only be matched with his hiring of Stephen Miller as chief of staff. It's like we aren't even trying to hide the ludicrous incompetence anymore when it comes to White and the pure bill when it comes to Miller

Unlike Trump, Elon can at least admit he made a mistake. After a couple of years of lackluster sake, Tesla I pulling the plug on the Cybertruck which brought as much excitement to the country as a unmedicated colonoscopy. Somehow, even after all these bad designs and flops, Tesla remains a darling of Wall Street with its sister company SpaceX right there with it. But it does show that Musk is willing to drop losing items to his brand as quickly as he's willing to drop wives

There must be a few ketchup bottles being hurtled across rooms in DC today. The night isn't over but the thought of Trump seething in his oversized suit and stupid long tie is just to awesome to ignore. I'm not ready to count any chickens but so far, the country is telling us one thing and we hope they keep telling that same story all night long. Except for Florida, they suck.

A few years ago before AI was all the rage, everybody was going gaga for Crypto. I never bought into that hype but recognized that there was money to be made but it always felt like any money you were making was just at the expense of others. When $6B was stolen from the biggest crypto exchange, my first thought was to laugh. Not sure why I'm basically rooting for an economic downturn but I just hate this economy which seems to be completely propped up by absolute junk

Netanyahu is pulling a page from Trump's playbook and claiming some kind of blame election fraud and as per the playbook made popular here is to single out a portion of the electorate and paint them as the evil villain. As no surprise to anybody, the victim to his unsubstantiated claims are the already marginalized Arabs. The danger of this can't be understated but sadly, much like Trump's MAGA base, the base will eat this up and use it as their justification if they are handed a loss. One thing is for sure, humanity loses.

I heard Obama stumping for Democrats does the Midwest this weekend and although I still love to hear him speak l, having him out there shows that the Democratic Party is still reaching. They haven't replace Obama nearly six years after he left office, he's still their biggest draw and it's not close. I'm not sure who's going to take the mantle but as long as he's not on the ballot, we can't expect him to make a real difference.

There really is no more depressing place than the men's rooms on the 2nd floor at Port Authority. The place is persistently covered in piss, smells like human feces and the floor is like a fly trap as your feet will stick to it permanently if you don't basically tap dance through the place. They have an attendant constantly mopping but it's impossible to keep up with the vile nature of the NJ commuter.

I just can't get hurt again. I've gone through so many elections with the promise that this time it would be different, this time we would find our better side and elect somebody who doesn't sound like us or speak like us or pray like us...and every two years pensioning disappointed. I've come to grips with the idea that America won't elect a woman, a gay person, a Muslim or anything else they deem dangerous. We've lost the moment to the right and we are now just another election away from more Trump.

When I first read about the pollsters who purposely put out fake data, I thought here we go again. My first thought was that this is exactly what caused us to get into the crisis in the first place. Fake polls can get a certain political party's turnout to spike while reducing the other party's desire to get out. We know this is supposedly a social experiment but one where by doing so you are playing with a crazy fire with no idea where it leads. So maybe we should stop playing with matches in a wooden cabin

I get why the student protests are happening across France but it always shocks me to see these things turn into looting of stores. I'm sure it's a few bad apples but it's difficult to defend a movement where a part of the population seems completely devoid of morals. Protest in the streets, call your government out and strike but looting stories and setting people's cars on fire has never made any sense to me regardless of what the movement is suppose to be about.

Elon is such a despicable human and has done nothing with his wealth to help humanity. He's got Ukrainian blood on his hands, will single handily spend more on this election than probably the rest of the country and is also disgustingly fat. He also will never find love, true respect or a belt that fits.

Katie's reign didn't last long which was expected when she both lied in her resume and in the light kind of looked manly. We know Trump wasn't impressed which is fine because she wasn't able to lie quite like the previous bimbo but because she was. Long and she's been on FoxNews he assumed she was going to work out even if she was vastly unqualified.

Trump decided to dump his Greek ambassador after first dumping her there as a parting gift to his son.

Years go, getting the new iPhone was the kind of thing that people stood hour in line for. There was a certain cache to having the latest model but now as I've gotten older, none of it matters anymore. What does matter is that they cost like $1200 and that they aren't getting monumentally better. So you pay a small fortune for a slight improvement and if it wasn't for the fact the batteries have all started to suck as part of their planned obsolescence, we'd all be fine to hold onto our phones for a decade.

Somehow Trump is getting fatter. The latest videos of him look like he's out in at least 20 points of pure blubber which is shocking being he was already easily 270lbs of blubber. For a guy who cares bout his appearance, the fact he can't keep from eating every ounce of candy in sight is probably the reason he chokes himself while banging the door into his wiener.
