Today's news and jokes



@timdrake42 Imagine getting the call that you have to do a billboard installation for a Final Destination movie, depicting billboard installation workers falling to their death… #finaldestination #finaldestinationbloodlines #hollywood ♬ Dreaming - The Ting Tings








This is nuts. Trump White House proclaimed on April 28 that it “achieved” “border security.” So there’s no invasion and no emergency. This is just a fascistic power grab.

It’s especially galling that AG Pam Bondi personally wrote the memo approving the gift of the Qatari airplane. Her last job was as a lobbyist for Qatar! efile.fara.gov/docs/6415-Ex...

("Two people familiar with the language of an analysis conducted by the office of the White House counsel, David Warrington, and the attorney general, Pam Bondi, whose past work as a lobbyist included Qatar as a client, said they had determined it would fall within the law for Mr. Trump’s library to receive the plane") (“I’m disappointed that [she] failed to list several clear conflicts of interest, which indicates she does not take these conflicts seriously.")















This is not good. State trooper cars should be highly visible and marked. It’s not safe to have unmarked or low visibility vehicles pulling people over, especially in the age of ICE kidnappings. www.kctv5.com/2025/05/09/c...
