Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Their freedom requires your slavery.

The republican speaker is a slippery little devil.

Come on, media. you have one job. start doing it.

Republicans are the party of chaos and catastrophe.

Wow, you are pre-disappointed. How surprising.

When we show up, we win.

Proof that we need a blogger ethics panel.

Republicans want to make it harder to vote and easier for them to cheat.

Tide comes in. Tide goes out. You can’t explain that.

I have other things to bitch about but those will have to wait.

So it was an October Surprise A Day, like an Advent calendar but for crime.

They are lying in pursuit of an agenda.

Trump should be leading, not lying.

“I was told there would be no fact checking.”

Do we throw up our hands or do we roll up our sleeves? (hint, door #2)

When I was faster i was always behind.

Motto for the House: Flip 5 and lose none.

Nothing says ‘pro-life’ like letting children go hungry.

Everybody saw this coming.

You are either for trump or for democracy. Pick one.

If America since Jan 2025 hasn’t broken your heart, you haven’t loved her enough.

The next time the wall street journal editorial board speaks the truth will be the first.

Every reporter and pundit should have to declare if they ever vacationed with a billionaire.

In after Baud. Damn.

Washington DC Meet-up post

Via Barbara for tonight’s meet-up in DC:

Can one of the FPs put up a post about the DC Meet up? My plan is to reserve a table at Elephant and Castle beginning at 5:15. E&C is on Pennsylvania Ave., NW between 12th and 13th Streets, across from the Old Post Office Building, now known as Trump Hotel. I will try to get there at around 5:15, and I will be wearing an orange dress. I would really like to know how many people (give or take) are planning to come so I get the right size table +2 (which I will just plan for). Thanks!

Please respond in comments so Barbara can get a decent table.

    Enjoy folks! Sorry I can’t join you all but I’ll raise a glass of wine tonight in Como. No Clooney sightings but everyone knows exactly where he lives. I hope to be able to attend the next one.

    I’ll be there, aiming for 5:30. Thank you, Barbara, for organizing. I’m wearing purple, yes, because I’m that old. Just was at Lincoln memorial, on the way to Frederick Douglass house.

    @Lahke: Great! I think that’s five so far including you and me. I am going to go over to talk to them around 1:00 so keep feeding me the rsvp’s.

    I’m a long time lurker, but I love this community and would like to meet up in real life. Unfortunately, I’m out of town this week, which is why I’m posting: to respectfully ask that this not be a one time event!

    I will be there at the start, then I have to take off for another event. I’ll be wearing a Hawaiian shirt with cars on it.

    I might make it. I’m having a tiring day at work, and may need a moment of silence when I get home– but, it’s possible.

    ETA: I’ll be the guy who had a haircut yesterday.

    @Boatboy_srq: Will miss you.

    Have fun! You have a Grand Jury to celebrate. Woo hooo.

    Be thinking of a time in mid-September or later for another meetup.

    Cheers.

    @Caphilldcne: nice to meet you. Noisy so could not talk to everyone. You all are older than I expected (except ET). I didn’t expect a table full of my fellow Boomers. ;)
