I'm so glad I enjoy eating like a peasant.

NEWSFLASH KEN PAXTON SAYS HE WILL DROP OUT WHEN THE THORIANS GIVE UP THEIR RESSURECTIONIST PLOT (I'm sorry I made the most obscure Warhammer 40k joke imaginable, I'm broken)

Democrats may not be able to prevent Mullin's confirmation, but they can certainly turn his track record of offense and stupidity into two days of televised humiliation so spectacular that he is wounded in Trump's eyes from day 1. That is the job.

He would have been 98 and change when I came along.

Scoop: U.S. ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee joked to embassy staff about procreating while sheltering in place on Tuesday in a memo one U.S. official described as “awkward” and “odd.”

My grandfather (singular, no great) was born in 1887.

I’ll never forget when he was alive and was like “well, Markwayne Mullin fought a customer again” and he meant like, physically fought a customer.

Having said that, I'm effing obsessed right now with whether or not they are gonna let her fly home on that brand-new G7. (They didn't let Comey fly back on the FBI jet when he got canned.) 👀

Markwayne called Rand Paul a “freaking snake” last week and said he supported his neighbor beating the crap out of him. Let’s see who the chair of the Senate Homeland Security committee is…oh goody it’s Rand Paul.

love to see it

Now that she is fired, Kristi Noem will have more time to spend with someone else's husband.

ending her career lying about an orwell quote while the entire room is getting news notifications about how she’s been fired and clearly doesn’t know it, perfect

Sometimes you learn things when you do an interview with a chief executive. And sometimes, you learn things when you do not in fact do an interview with a chief executive:

Markwayne Mullins seems like a safe choice for Trump, bc have to think his Dem colleagues will be happy to get him out of the Senate one two years into his term.

But also feel like this is pure fry-pan-to-fire. MWM has an MMA career section on his Wiki page. That’s … not great temperament.

There it is: Noem out, Mullin in

Gonna show my age here but in a strange way this harkens back to computer magazines publishing the BASIC code for a program and you were expected to laboriously type every character into your terminal ...

except now you just copy and paste the spec from OpenAI

Unironically, I’m learning a lot in this thread

hey look it’s y’all’s favorite lawyer’s cohost at it again

The use of AI to identify targets (without subsequent specific human confirmation) should be considered a war crime.

And by that I don't mean "we should make a rule" I mean that straightforward application of the existing rules would tell you that it is a war crime.

Preston Brooks resigned after caning Charles Sumner (and then was resoundingly reelected anyway) but we are maybe in a more fucked-up era than the antebellum period bsky.app/profile/elkm...

just a randomly prediction, i think people are sleeping on the virality and durability of the "tim sheehy breaks the marine protester's arm" story in the coming days and weeks
