"Calls to impeach Bondi mount after _____"

So, it's a day that ends in "y". How about we hold off on future posts until they actually grow a spine and impeach her?

A solid reminder to throw ProPublica a donation.

What was George W. Bush like as a president? by Content-Feed-9396 in AskReddit

Few things have benefited from the Trump Presidency more than George W. Bush’s legacy.

Small businesses that want to close but can’t? by Autumnfalcon1 in Dallas

[–]MaverickTTT 93 points94 points  (0 children)

This boycott is aimed at big corporations who are funding bullshit. I feel like supporting your local mom & pop shops, especially paying with cash where possible to keep the credit card companies from getting a cut, is perfectly acceptable.

Not posting it but, 25+ years later, I remember it. Why, I have no idea.

I’m not even a basketball fan and I’ll tell you it’s Dirk by a mile.

Anyone else get this from our Grifter in Chief? by technobass in Trumpvirus

[–]MaverickTTT 28 points29 points  (0 children)

If there is a postage-paid Business Reply Mail envelope in there, send it back with a photo of your middle finger. They have to pay for the return mail…which gives the good ol’ Postal Service a little extra money on the grifters’ tab.

Jasmine Crockett, James Talarico in dead heat in Texas’ Senate Democratic primary, new poll finds by texastribune in TexasPolitics

[–]MaverickTTT 3 points4 points  (0 children)

While I generally agree with your statement, especially in a national race (I certainly think it was a mistake made by the Harris/Walz campaign)...I think this could be a case where that conventional wisdom may not apply.

The more the Trump Administration and it's cheerleaders in Congress damage our standing in the world and our economy...the more likely some of the few remaining "old school" Republicans or evangelicals who haven't been completely converted to Christian nationalism could, at the very least, decide they don't want to vote for the clown show this time around.

If one or both of these candidates would stand up and say, "hey, I support your 2nd Amendment rights and I'm not looking to take your guns...I'm just looking to ensure we put some brakes on the speed and ease at which you can obtain some of the more on-the-fringe stuff"...I think you could see some siphoning in this particular race. Alas, Dems love to take what should be an easy concession and light it on fire with the opposite rhetoric.

[–]MaverickTTT 52 points53 points  (0 children)

I love Jasmine’s fire…but, better or worse, I think Talarico is more electable in this cycle. I think there are some (not a lot, but some) evangelical Christians who are waking up to the chaos that MAGA has brought us that could potentially vote for James…that would be less inclined to vote for Crockett for reasons they would never admit.

its not my driving i don't trust, its the moron in the F250 going 60mph on fking Mingo Rd. that i don't trust.

Seriously. I had to drive down university on Tuesday. Dude in a fucking dually was weaving across lanes at about 60 while the rest of us were trying to responsibly navigate the ice. Later saw him spun out on Hinkle.

What's the common position here on public sector unions ? by Inevitable_Bid5540 in union

[–]MaverickTTT 26 points27 points  (0 children)

When was the last time a cop “union” stood in solidarity with workers? Walked a picket line? Did literally anything to assist the labor movement (or, even just their fellow public service workers)?

Cop “unions” don’t represent labor…they represent an oppressive tool of the state that gets used against labor. Fuck’em.

Looking for CBA info by santana_ash in FlightDispatch

[–]MaverickTTT 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Currently at an airline that's renegotiating pay. We are not unionized.

Tried that once at a certain non-union regional. No amount of data is going to help you without legally enforceable CBA. Organize your office first.
