At Least We Won't Have Sleepwalked Into Authoritarianism

Fun Fact

Historians agree. Donald Trump was America’s absolutely worst president.

Now, the absolutely worst former president.

“It’s not a speech that will be remembered for its eloquence or its delivery.” I can’t fully agree. The memorable eloquence of Biden’s address, evident to a reader, was obscured to listeners by its memorably poor delivery. That delivery confirmed the necessity of the speaker’s withdrawal from his candidacy but did not obscure his sincerity, courage, and love for our country. For me, the address was both sad and inspiring.

Hey, they’ve already got their subscribers’ money for this round. It’ll be a main focus before the next subscriber fundraiser. That’s my guess.

The problem is one of American exceptionalism. It’s not just for politics.

I don’t know about the rest of you, but I resent paying to be a prime member so TPM can continue to fuck up its “updates” and “improvements” to the point that I can’t get into the comments section without going through Hell and half of Georgia to get there.

So it was possibly shrapnel that hurt Trumpie’s ear, not a bullet? I wonder if the FBI got to see the medical report. Actually, that makes more sense, because wouldn’t a bullet have done way more damage?

Same here. Slunk around to my usual back door (didn’t have to login again, path failed not login).

Computer gremlins. The vaccine is not working.

I got the same log-in error twice before coming through the back door.

If we’re going to have to keep using the back door, at least get the darn thing painted, plant some flowers, and put out a welcome mat!

“…perhaps more under duress than by free will…”

Ya think?

This is one of those cases where you call the tech crew into headquarters, order 10 pizzas and a couple of cases of Sprite and tell them, ‘We are all staying here until this gets fixed’. It really puzzles me why TPM hasn’t done that…

Well, this is new. I got a login time out error message when I tried the front door this morning.

Apparently HTML is a mysterious language that requires voodoo sacrifices to make work.
