Calypso, the tortoiseshell cat with a dark and light brown pattern and light green eyes, sits on a cat tree. Her ears are up at attention, her tail is curled in front of her paws, and she is looking straight at the camera
I am most elegant today! Happy Tortie Tuesday friends!
Speaker Johnson doesn't want Gonzalez to resign despite office affair. The Bible-thumping speaker is willing to turn the other cheek to protect his slim House margin. He's a type-A hypocrite.
Wow. Mike Johnson only took 2 Qs during today's House R presser - he usually takes at least 4 - and neither was about Rep. Tony Gonzales. Johnson is refusing to call for Gonzales's resignation following the release of texts showing he pressured an aide who later committed suicide for sexual photos.
While I am getting ready for SCOTUS opinions to be released at 10am, Blue has other ideas...
The President is lying to the public:
1) For the past century, the federal government has been responsible for the Potomac Interceptor – not Maryland. The sewage pipe is on federal land.

Grey Heron staring right at you with his/her pointy beakspear.
Heron photos and articles from NASA are one thing, but it's strangely unsettling to watch a post about one's idiosyncratic lifestyle choices go viral. I must say that I did not expect that, having shared the same "Stars Without Cars" blog last year to little uptake. Enough about me; back to herons.

Donald Trump won this district in Louisiana by 13 points in 2024.
The Democrat just crushed a Republican extremist in this district by 24 points.
Folks, that’s a 37 point swing to the left. We can compete everywhere and win anywhere. Let’s keep this up!

IC1848 - The Soul Nebula. I am officially blown away by the detail in my first real SHO image. This is just 30 mins on each filter. I can't wait to see the results when I get several hours on it.

Stop what you’re doing and read this whistleblower report. ICE has been training its agents that they don’t need a judicial warrant to break down your door - a blatant violation of the 4th Amendment. www.documentcloud.org/documents/26...

TL;DR: Frederick, a fluffy gray tabby Maine Coon with tufted ears and a big white ruff, lounges in a clear bowl on a cat tree, lit by warm golden light and looking sleepily unimpressed. Details: A close-up, low-angle photo of Frederick, a large Maine Coon cat with long gray-and-black tabby fur and a dramatic white chest ruff. He’s perched in a clear, bubble-like plastic bowl attached to a cat tree, so the camera looks up at him from below and his face and fluffy chest fill most of the frame. His tall ears have noticeable tufts, and long white whiskers spread outward from his muzzle. Frederick’s eyes are half-lidded and slightly narrowed, giving him a sleepy, mildly judgmental expression. One front paw stretches forward along the rim of the clear bowl on the right side. The background is warmly lit in amber tones with soft, out-of-focus string lights and part of a round platform of the cat tree in the upper right, creating a cozy indoor glow.
Big Frederick looking like he gonna drop the most 🔥 mixtape of all time
RESIGN?
TIME TO WAKE UP; DONALD TRUMP HAS NO INTENTION OF LEAVING

Black and white infrared photograph of a wide beach at low tide. Three silhouetted figures stand at the water’s edge in the lower left, an adult bending toward a small child while another adult stands nearby. Their reflections appear in the wet sand. A long pier stretches horizontally across the middle of the frame, supported by evenly spaced pilings. Above, heavy layered clouds fill most of the sky, with brighter light near the horizon behind the pier. The ocean appears dark and textured beneath the dramatic cloud cover.

The James Cameron blockbuster became one of only three Hollywood movies released in 2025 to gross over $1 billion at theaters worldwide.
Trump on Nobel Peace Prize winner María Corina Machado: "She doesn’t have the respect of the people there." Same Trump 1.0 pattern as Juan Guaidó—elevate a democratic figure when useful, discard them when they’re not.
The U.S. will “run” Venezuela.
So who’s next, Cuba? The Panama Canal? Greenland?
Stephen Miller dreamt of bombing Mexico and Latin America during the first Administration. Replacing Maduro was in Project 2025.
The white nationalists and broligarchy (Musk, Thiel) and white Christian nationalists (Vought) are trying to get everything before Trump dies.
