The blog of the day is The First Street Journal, with a post on checking the wackos at Bluesky.
BTW, watch out for that flu/cold going around. Not sure which I have, no fever, but, the folks at work who go it had fever. Came on super quick. Feel like garbage, did not work today. Just laying here in sweatpants, though, did take a shower. Stay away from people with it.
All posts here are my views. None represent my employer. If ye can prove me wrong, so be it. Ye can rant and rave at me, but be mostly polite to any other commentors. I will put up with quite a bit, but be mostly respectful to others.

Little Peter Hegseth spent nearly 150,000 taxpayer dollars to upgrade his military-provided housing.
Where was crooked Elon, the hypocrite?
Let’s hope they upgrade the housing of actual troops as well.
So Rimjob you don’t believe the U.S. Secretary of Defense is worthy of a security upgrade on his home?
Wanna try to explain your reasoning?
Go on, give it a try.
Lil Pissant,
Can you provide evidence that the $50,000 allocated for “emergency painting” was for “security”?
The Donnie Donut’ MAGAt regime is all grift, all the time.
Not an answer to the question posed.
So Rimjob do you have a problem posting a link for your question so one can understand where you’re coming from?
Lil Miss Pissant,
I didn’t claim the improvements were for “security reasons” you did.
I had a link in the first comment.
The only question I asked was “Where was Elon (monitoring wasteful spending)?
Will Elon check the Secret Service payments to Mar-a-Lardo?
Oh, so Rimjob what problem do you have with Hegseth’s request other than you and the dems hate him?
Lil Miss Pissant,
Homie don’t play dat.
Oh, so you don’t have an honest answer, do ya Rimjob?
Oh my-the housing was to be upgraded no matter the Secretary of Defense turned out to be, Republican or Democrat
Elwood the TROLL.
It’s rather surprising that Hegseth could find 150k from our government since the democrats are spending it faster than it can be printed with USAID and who knows what else we will find.
$150K is less than the cost of a single employee at the Pentagon. I think Hegseth can afford to upgrade his quarters plus add a hotel next door and still spend less than Austin.
Professor,
The proof of the pudding is in the eating. We’ll see how Lil Peter does with the Defense budget. His first week his Army killed 67 in Washington. Is that his plan?
It IS likely he would OK a Trump Hotel be built on the taxpayer’s dime.
Many people seem to think the NFL is rigging games by using the Referees.
This is just not true. There is no way 31 other billionaires are gonna let the NFL screw them over.
However, in an age of trillion-dollar betting markets and the fact that NFL referees are part-time, lowly paid officials, it is not hard to see how people with huge dollars to throw away could easily slip a few million bucks to a dozen or so refs under the table to make sure the game goes according to their betting needs.
Buffalo vs KS, 4th down and Josh Allen heaves a ball that goes right to his tight end, A FLAG FLIES….the ball is dropped………..the FLAG IS PICKED UP. Nothing to see here from the NFL, but I would be willing to bet there are a lot of people paying a certain few select refs to make the right calls at the right time to ensure a proper score. Over Under, etc…etc…etc.
It is why gambling on pro sports was vigorously enforced and why PETE ROSE never made it to the hall of fame. Now, Today………betting in 2/3rds of the advertising on blogs, youtube and network football games.
You think that an entertainment venue cannot be scripted without depending on the lowest paid employees beside the concession vendors? A private club run by billionaires is definitely going to be run for their benefit, which includes a cut from gambling.
Donnie Donuts, buffing up his white nationalist bonafides, offers “oppressed” white South Africans (Afrikaners) refuge in the United States! Whites make up under 10% of South Africa’s population but own 70% of the private farmland. 1% of whites there live in poverty, while 60% of Blacks live in poverty.
This also could be a reward for President Musk.
So Rimjob what do you mean by “white nationalist” bona-fides?
Even you, Pissant, with your limited reasoning skills, should be able to figger that one out!
Wealthy white minority invited to America, while America is deporting millions of brown people… Just like Donnie Donuts, Teach, Dana and david, YOU believe white Americans alone deserve to rule. It’s why you love and worship Donnie Donuts.
You approve of him accusing SA Blacks of oppressing the wealthy white Afrikaners, inviting THEM here, don’t you? Doesn’t it make you obey him even more?
Another non answer.
Are these questions to tough for you or do have an unbridled hatred for all things Trump?
And yet Little Peter did find the money! The Democrats can’t spend money since the House is controlled by MAGAts (for now). The MAGA elites want to make sure taxpayer monies flow from the working class to Trump, Musk, Kochs, Scott, Bessent, etc. Unearned income is the best income!!
That said, the MAGAts may lose their majority in special elections, and if they keep up their assaults on America and decency they’ll lose the House by double digits in 2026. The seemingly MAGA permanent majority in the Senate is looking less secure.
So Rimjob on what do you base your claim:
“The MAGA elites want to make sure taxpayer monies flow from the working class to Trump, Musk, Kochs, Scott, Bessent, etc.”
Lil Pissant,
The facts.
Well then post some facts, Rimjob.
Preferably with valid citations.
Lil Pissant,
Although Donnie Donuts is a pathological liar, it’s believable that he wants to cut taxes on the wealthy (he has said as much – even toying with eliminating the income tax).
How will he make up for the lost revenue? He says “tariffs – that beautiful word – which are paid by consumers (and end up in the US coffers). He knows, as you should, that even having the working class pay for the tariffs, he and President Musk will have to cut into Medicare, Social Security and Medicaid. Local and state governments will have to increase their taxes to make up for the loss of federal money.
Federal consumption taxes, state and local taxes, and cuts to Social programs hurt the working class. Ending the federal income tax rewards the billionaires.
Now, fuck you, dumbass.
