Centrist Sisyphus

I saw reports that Trump "walked back" a statement. Reading further it was clear he drunkenly stumbled back a slurred utterance.

STOP sanewashing.

That face reflects a lot of hamstring strains. Good luck to the 9ers for the 9 games of production he’ll give them.

When a politician makes a cynical move, I can usually see the benefit to them. That’s missing here: WHAT is the upside to Polis if he pardons/commutes an election-denying felon’s rightful sentence?

Brave, brave Sir Kilmeade, telling others to take a $50M risk…not to mention the risk to their lives.

My nomination for the most manufactured story of suspense for 2026. It’s the new “Al Capone’s vault.”

Those goals are entirely tactical, irrelevant if we’re not fighting them. Strategic masters they’re not.

I’m gonna get ahead of the hypocrisy by remembering the conservative outrage when Biden released oil from our reserves to lower the price. He was “Dangerously lowering our stockpile just to avoid the high gas prices HE CREATED!!!”

Ahh, the Kari Lake years! Good times for AZ Dems when Repubs showed their radicalism in who they nominated.

Echoes of Trump’s approach to covid, which went so well for him.

Hah. APS (in AZ) uses multiple sources; renewable, nuclear, nat. gas, coal. I produce more from my solar panels than I use, but the EV charge cost I quoted only took into account my utility rate.

I know people in other states typically pay a lot more.

She can stop at my house in N. AZ and you can charge for free, since I only pay $0.035/kWh (non-peak). Phoenix and back, 250 miles, is under $3 in my EV.

The impacts are so localized it's hard to assess. I still pay $0.035/kWh (non-peak), making my EV dirt cheap to drive.

"Putin LIKES ME!"

Yeah, there's a reason, putz.

Staring in the face of a fossil fuel price spike, Congress reiterated, "No we are going backwards."

Shame.

In several trips driving the cheapest gas states, the lowest I saw was $2.24/gal. More typical was $2.50-$2.80.

Trump: not an addled, desperate man tweeting at 2am. Instead he’s ”doing the weave” describing his personal SAVE Act.

Hmmm, how many solar panels and grid batteries could we have installed for the same cost as protecting a few months of oil shipments?

That’s the unanswerable question. At least until years from now when formerly top-secret docs are released.

That economic rejuvenation was led by an 80yo, which is unacceptable! So we elected a 79yo bankruptcy specialist.

I hope they can also say F*** and S***, because they’re the best way to describe the multi-faceted failures of Trump II.

Trump has air support, the Wicked Witch had her flying monkeys. How did “SURRENDER, DOROTHY” work out for her?

“America First” surrendered. Unilaterally. Battery manufacturing plants have closed and planned ones have been cancelled. We were on the right track until we elected the “green new scam, Beautiful Coal” president.

Republican presidents keep finding ways to spend $trillions on wars and $trillions on billionaire tax cuts.

Everything else suffers.

“I voted for Trump because he’s a successful businessman,“ said the red-hatted idiots.

Every month, heck, every DAY, the utter stupidity of the American electorate is experienced and reconfirmed.

Called it…

“Ummm, sorry Cuba but you see, the jobs numbers were REALLY bad. He HAD to do something.”

Boy the numbers a couple years ago sure look good! Remind me who was president…it was that failure who just had to be removed, wasn’t it?

Mullin is truly one of the dumbest Senators. Last week he said the Khamenei who was assassinated was the same Ayatollah who led the 1979 overthrow of the Shah. WRONG.

Those involved in sending troops to war need a good understanding of the opponent.

Maybe the White House should look not down but up...to the Sun. That's what the rest of the world is doing.
