Beclowned
This word seems to be having a resurgence lately. I see it everywhere. Couldn’t have anything to do with our current president…

Kevin Drum RIP
I think?
If you follow the blog closely, Kevin Drum is an old school political blogger. His politics match mine quite well. And he’s been blogging forever, in the old school way where you learn about his family, interests, etc.
He’s been fighting health issues for a long time. Things seemed up and down. His last blog post was titled Health Update (as he often does) and the first sentence was “Everything is getting worse”.
I enjoy his posts so the fact that this was five days ago was concerning. I searched his name on Bluesky and found this:
Mi cuñato is gone. Several of you may know him. He was a Dem blogger that wrote for Political Animal & Mother Jones. The guy that started Friday Cat-Blogging, Kevin Drum.My partner’s older brother. Bless you, Kevin 🐈 🪽 🏵️

Life is short, enjoy it.

Are we the bad guys?
This was really bad…
The president of the United States ambushed a loyal ally, presumably so that he can soon make a deal with the dictator of Russia to sell out a European nation fighting for its very existence.

Betrayed
From Germany’s most influential weekly.
“BETRAYED. First Zelensky, Soon Us? The radical departure of the US from its allies.”

Trump v Selzer
I can’t improve on this comment. Anyone who quotes The Princess Bride is solid in my book.
FIRE (the free-speech organization) has taken on the defense of J. Ann Selzer, the Des Moines Register pollster who's being frivolously sued by Donald Trump.And while FIRE is doing the case pro bono, I feel like we should all pay them $550 an hour just for this one beautiful paragraph.
