Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

We’ve had enough carrots to last a lifetime. break out the sticks.

“Can i answer the question? No you can not!”

You cannot shame the shameless.

You know it’s bad when the Project 2025 people have to create training videos on “How To Be Normal”.

Not loving this new fraud based economy.

I’ve spoken to my cat about this, but it doesn’t seem to do any good.

Balloon Juice, where there is always someone who will say you’re doing it wrong.

Never give a known liar the benefit of the doubt.

Accused of treason; bitches about the ratings. I am in awe.

Weird. Rome has an American Pope and America has a Russian President.

It’s all just conspiracy shit beamed down from the mothership.

And now I have baud making fun of me. this day can’t get worse.

Just because you believe it, that does not make it true.

My right to basic bodily autonomy is not on the table. that’s the new deal.

There are a lot more evil idiots than evil geniuses.

You don’t get rid of your umbrella while it’s still raining.

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the dice to roll

The press swings at every pitch, we don’t have to.

Today in our ongoing national embarrassment…

With all due respect and assumptions of good faith, please fuck off into the sun.

Make the republican party small enough to drown in a bathtub.

Today’s gop: why go just far enough when too far is right there?

It’s easy to sit in safety and prescribe what other people should be doing.

New McCarthy, same old McCarthyism.

    Chomp, chomp, crunch, crunch. I wish my master would throw a few crackers at me now.

    Oh my gosh, she is such a delicate eater. Sweet Lily, that brought tears to my eyes.

    @debit: Ritz crackers might be the only commercial product whose taste has not changed — and has not been ruined by “improvements”. And by improvements, I mean attempts to make the product more cheaply.

    As congressional Democrats begin what could be a tumultuous battle to obtain President Donald Trump’s tax returns, New York lawmakers are trying to make it easier for them to get their hands on the president’s state filings.

    Legislators introduced a bill Monday that would amend the state law to permit the N.Y. Department of Taxation and Finance commissioner to release any state tax return requested by the leaders of the House Ways and Means Committee, the Senate Finance Committee and the Joint Committee on Taxation for any “specific and legitimate legislative purpose.” The bill seeks to amend state laws which generally prohibit the release of such tax information.

    If passed, the congressional committees will have to file a request with the state after other efforts to gain access to federal tax filings through the Treasury Department have failed.

    The New York Times reported on the legislation earlier Monday.

    Trump scrambles to keep his tax returns hidden from review
    APRIL 6, 201917:00
    Democratic state Sen. Brad Hoylman, who is sponsoring the legislation, told NBC News on Monday that he believes it is “imperative” for the New York Legislature to assist Congress with the issue of Trump’s tax filings.

    “Donald Trump has broken 40 years of political tradition by not releasing his returns,” Hoylman said. “His representatives say they will block all congressional efforts to obtain those returns through existing procedures. Well, it turns out that New York state has those returns and can do its part to assist the Congress in their oversight responsibility by releasing them to a relevant committee that requests them.”

    Though the bill would only apply to the president’s state returns and not the federal ones currently at the center of a Washington battle, tax filings from the president’s home state that additionally serves as the headquarters of his business are likely to contain much of the same information congressional lawmakers are seeking from his federal returns.

    @TomatoQueen:

    a BACON Ritz

    I have spent years mourning Nabisco Bacon Thins, the best snack cracker ever devised.
    They haven’t been made for decades.

    @jk: As I read that I laughed an utterly maniacal and evil laugh. I think I scared my co-workers.

    I ask for those and Wheat Thins in my care packages from the US. That and the large bottles of chipotle Tabasco.

    I like how she savors it.

    Minnesota Finn was attracted to Lily and the sound of her chomping and rushed up to watch her. He doesn’t take too many breaks. Has found work already. Just odd jobs so far. A factotum.

    She sniffs her food before eating it. Our younger cocker spaniel does that. Hand him a piece of grilled chicken and he’ll eat it the same way Lily ate that cracker. Our older cocker, on the other hand, will snatch a treat so fast he sometimes chomps on my fingers. Li’l bastid.

    John, It’s nice of her to keep the crumbs confined to her bed, although I suspect she just didn’t want to share it with you.

    You should have given her a smear of peanut butter, or something else that’s delish for a good girl, with her cracker.

    Next time get in front of her and down at her level before you give her the treat and start recording….Eye level face is much more appealing than top of the head….just saying?

    @debit: years ago Costco sold a roasted raspberry and chipolte sauce that was delicious. On ritz smeared with cream cheese it made the combo devine…yummmmmm.

    Cole, Lily is the one of the cutest, and from everything we juicers can see, sweetest dogs I’ve ever seen. You are a lucky man.

    I can’t believe Lily actually chews her treats. My dog just opens her mouth and vacuums up the treats. Zero chewing.
