  1. I want this bobblehead of Schrödinger’s senator

    https://www.instagram.com/reel/DcwuDHYktZy/ It's been months since anyone heard a word from Kentucky's Schrödinger's senator, Mitch McConnell. He was carted in an ambulance in mid-June, and his constituents have heard a word from him since. But since I keep referencing Schrödinger, I should at least provide a simple explanation of its significance. But if I write it all in a post, your eyes will glaze over (much like Mitch's ... if he's still in a state of being, since he sure as hell […]

    None! Except for #MitchMcConnell being dead.

  4. Is that what's going on with #MitchMcConnell ? As for letting someone with #Alzheimers make decisions, #Trump is still in office...

    Kay Granger, Pathbreaking Texas Congresswoman, Dies at 83

    She was the first Republican woman from the state to be elected to the House. It caused a stir in 2024 when she was discovered to be residing in a senior living facility while still in office.

  6. Just spoke to Mitch McConnell for 20 minutes and all his hospital machine alarms are going off and his eyes are glassy and he didn't blink a single time and he's not breathing and there's a very bad smell in the room.

  8. Today’s Tarot: Clarity (Q&A)

    Q: What do we most need to know right now in the United States following Lindsey Graham’s death and conjecture about Mitch McConnell’s.

    I drew this card with this question in mind, right after seeing a social media post from someone who I typically has good points and real food for thought. This may well be the first time I’ve disagreed with him.

    But no, this isn’t a time for tut-tutting about “speaking ill of the dead” from either side of the political divide. Graham was not a good person who, because of his political power, inflicted real harm on real people and contributed much to the rise of fascism and white christian nationalism in America today.

    I’m sorry for the loss of any kind person who feels his – or their – passing. But at the same time it is fair to think they are lying in the bed they made during their lifetime.

    The social media person clucked something on the order “saying these things says more about you as a person than it does about them.

    Not this time.

    If making fun of a powerful bad man says something about the person saying it….what does a powerful man’s silence about the death of school girls at the hands of unnecessary war, the death of women at the hands of politically and religiously motivated abortion bans, the death of schoolchildren at the hands of our lack of gun control….and on and on and on. What does silence about these dead say about THEM? I’d rather people make merciless fun of the politicians who caused harm than remain silent in the face of the harm they caused.

    It’s more important to be kind to everyone living than to worry about what is said about the dead.

    Laughter is good medicine. Public figures who caused real harm aren’t going to be any less dead if we only say nice things about them after they’ve been rendered harmless by the inevitable. Momento Mori.

    In the noise of current events, the Ace of swords reminds us to cut to the chase, get to the point, simplify. Tune out the static and get right down to what really matters. In the end, kindness is the only measure of what that is.

  9. The left doesn’t need some caricature personality hire like #GrahamPlatner . Trying to create a story is the problem. Story is marketing. Marketing is lying. The right needs marketing. The left needs progress. Progress happens in steps, in inches. In the mud.

    The left needs people who celebrate the end of #mitchmcconnell . Rather than performative “good game” fair fight culture, the left has to recognize that it is always fighting a cheating enemy. Always.

    Dance on their graves. #uspol

  10. The hospital should cut a hole in the roof and let a thick stalk rapidly shoot up 10-15 meters out of the carcass of Mitch McConnell. Carefully bagged as soon as it starts to flower, of course, so no spores escape.

  11. Mike Johnson is to blame every time Trump commits a crime

    Impeachable offenses in this administration are like flies in pig manure, too many to count and there's pigshit everywhere

    It's Mitch McConnell's fault that Trump is in place to commit the crimes, but Johnson could stop them if he wanted to

  12. Hemp-derived #THC drinks, #edibles could soon disappear because of #ShutdownBill

    by Nathaniel Weixel - 11/12/25

    Excerpt: "[#MitchMcConnell] is saying that #Kentucky farmers will be fine. They’ll grow [#hemp] for fiber, or they’ll grow it for nonintoxicating #CBD. But that’s just not true. Nonintoxicating CBD is banned by this,' Miller said."

  13. Federal spending bill threatens #Minnesota’s #hemp-derived #THC industry

    Provision would cap THC content at 0.4mg per container, effectively banning current products

    By Selah Jacoway
    Published: Nov. 13, 2025 at 7:54 AM EST|

    FARGO, N.D. (Valley News Live) - "A provision in the federal government’s spending package would restrict Minnesota’s hemp-derived THC industry by capping THC content at 0.4mg per container.

    The U.S. Senate voted 76-24 on Monday to advance the provision, which now goes to the House for a vote as early as this week. The measure was championed by Sen. #MitchMcConnell and opposed by Sen. Rand Paul.

    The provision would reverse what McConnell called a “loophole” in the 2018 Farm Bill that inadvertently legalized hemp-derived THC products. The 2018 law removed hemp from the controlled-substance list and defined hemp as any #cannabis plant or product with 0.3% or less THC.

    Industry impact

    Minnesota’s hemp-derived THC industry generates $140 million in retail sales. Current Minnesota law, passed in 2022, permits 5mg THC drinks and edibles for adults over 21.

    The federal cap would effectively ban current products, which contain at least 2mg of THC even at the lowest doses.

    Business concerns

    If the provision passes, businesses selling hemp-derived THC products would face the same restrictions as cannabis businesses, including:

    - Higher taxes under federal tax code Section 280E
    - Limited access to banking and credit card services
    - Cash-only operations"

  19. Twelve US Senators, including #MitchMcConnell, #TomCotton, #MarcoRubio risk having arrest warrants issued against them under Article 70 of the #RomeStatute [1], since they have made threats against the #InternationalCriminalCourt [2]. The Senators risk (in principle) prison terms in The Hague of up to five years [1].

  20. #MitchMcConnell’s retirement from #Senate leadership will also mark the step back of an orderly counterpart to the tumultuous approach of #Trump, the frontrunner for the Republican presidential nomination, and the hardline #HouseFreedomCaucus ahead of the Nov #election for president, the full #House of Representatives & a third of the Senate.

  21. While Sen Min Ldr #MitchMcConnell called it a "mistake" for #Fox “News” to use the footage to downplay #Jan6, McCarthy defended the move & joined many in his conference to shift the focus onto the select cmte after they had blamed #Trump for the attack.

    GOP Rep. #BarryLoudermilk of #Georgia, an ally of McCarthy's (& the guy that took #insurgents on a tour the day before the #insurrection) will now lead the new #GOP probe.
