  • It’s neither here or there, but there’s no “D” in “consequences” either….

    <This is your daily complementary pedantic snarky comment>

  • Republican lawmakers are leaving office out of fear of the party’s base, report claims: ‘I’d rather my house not get firebombed’

    Jump

  • There is a big difference between fearing you’ll lose your job vs. fearing you’ll lose your house with children possibly inside.

    Regardless, these GOP members are fearing violence from the far right side of their party.

  • BoM asked to explain ‘what happened here’ after cost of website redesign revealed to be $96.5m

  • I mean, yes, that is bad… but the biennium budget for 2011-2013 was around $60 Billion, which means this project represented about half a percent of the overall budget. The current budget deficit is around $60 Million, but the kicker from 2024 was a record $5.6B in unexpected surplus.

    The Oracle debacle is a good representation of why government contracting can be a mess, but I don’t think that project caused such a big long-term financial problem. Putting a toll on the I-5 bridge into/from WA is a massive issue, I agree with you there.

  • DOGE “cut muscle, not fat”; 26K experts rehired after brutal cuts

  • I was at a military industry conference a month or so ago, with several flag level officers giving talks. The total amount of lost years of experience and senior leadership in the military and intelligence agencies is staggering. It is going to take generations to recover.

  • RFK Jr. repealed The Richardson Waiver–what could this mean for future policymaking?

  • The same Congress that let Trump unilaterally levy a tax on every American business and citizen?

  • Ducking is a fairly sacred community thing among Jeep owners, most specifically with Wranglers and now Gladiators. Ducks are always gifted as a random act of kindness, so a Jeep with a lot of ducks suggests that person has been rather active in the community.

  • You are now blind and deaf like Helen Keller. Good luck, she figured it out, you’ll be fine.

  • Donald Trump calls on Republicans to vote to release Epstein files

    Jump

  • To play the devil’s advocate, it’s certainly possible Trump publicly supports the House voting to release the original documents because he either 1) has ironclad assurance that it’ll die in the Senate, or 2) will just pocket veto the bill. There was substantial political downside to them opposing their release, and many many ways for them to kill this whole thing in the future.

    Trump doesn’t want the files released, but their Legislative Affairs and Communications Director finally woke up to a strategy that wasn’t political suicide.

  • This is a monumentally dumb and deadly idea. Want to watch the US cease to exist as a global super power? Good luck maintaining our nuclear arsenal without paying people.

  • Trump deploys troops to Portland, authorizing ‘full force’ if necessary | The action escalates a campaign to use the U.S. military against Americans that has little modern precedent.

  • I live in Portland, this image from today pretty well sums up what’s going on here.
