New York City
And in Nevada, of the total of 185 supposedly noncitizen voters the DHS identified, the Republican state government just reported that every single one of them, 100%, were in fact U. S. citizens.
Texas used the database to check all registered voters, which falsely flagged 578 US citizens. Last week they filed a brief supporting Trump and announced they gave 117 names—a negligible .00065% of 18M voters—to AG Ken Paxton for “investigation of *potential* noncitizen voting."

I’m spending the week in Omaha, my now-Democratic hometown in red Nebraska. In 2024 their genius election yard sign was the elegant blue dot. This time in yard after yard it’s the blue dot with a wave.

We always need to manage our election hopes, but @NateSilver538’s latest polling aggregation and analysis is very encouraging. (FLIPR is his latest model, which runs thousands of simulations across a range of possible outcomes for each prediction,)

Make-believe Fantasyland justification for his stupid, ugly, expensive, monumentally self-glorifying ballroom last winter — drones! snipers! military command post! — repeated now for his stupid, ugly, expensive, monumentally self-glorifying arch.

His dreams have all came true: most famous person on earth, in countless millions of minds every day, pulling off a multi-billion-dollar grift in plain sight. Yet still a miserably unhappy clown. Loathed and laughed at, throwing tantrums 24/7 as he heads toward lame-duck doom.

As I’ve said for a decade (as in this 2016 Venn Diagram), his astounding stupidity is fundamental.
President Trump Explains Trade Deficits: “If we buy 2 billion dollars worth of Bananas from Brazil, we’re actually losing 2 billion dollars. So if we stop eating bananas, we actually save 2 billion dollars”. It’s just simple Economics.

WOW. Even in our jaw-droopingly Onionesque era, these win the month, maybe the year. Both in the @guardian right now. (Thanks, @therobertbecker.)

From The Shining to The Royalton and Temple Bar in the 1980s, and then before long every swank bar on earth. Our neo-noir 2nd Gilded Age, early Reagan to late Trump.

The ever-present Special Assistant to the President really does resemble the daughter he agreed in an interview is “a piece of ass” and “stacked…voluptuous,” and in another said that if she “weren't my daughter, perhaps I'd be dating her."
