While discussing Noem with his guests Friday, Bill Maher called Noem "honey" and "sweetheart", that LA can handle it, we don't need her bullshit. It was funny and striking how he told her to calm the fuck down and go away.

The squeaks echo off the empty stands.

...and now he's left with small consolation, though small is what Donny is used to, because it's Father's Day. So Happy Father's Day to the Dear Leader.

The parade turned out to be a flop. Trump probably questioned if the parade strategy was a bad idea. I imagine he pictured it would be tremendous, the likes of which America has never seen, the streets packed with his devoted supporters. Sorry Donald. Your's was small and limp. . Rocket Man packs a bigger one.

Noem is in over her head. She's a fvkin' clown. LA County Supervisor Janice Hahn calls her out.

Did our ol' girl almost take a tumble? I hope everything is OK.

I've seen many of the above films. From those listed that I hadn't seen, I have now watched two, so far. Enjoyed both a lot. Thank you guys. The Egoist @PeterRS Once Upon a Time in the West @BjornAgain

Maybe a little too old. When he was first approached about the role Chalamet was the right age. I forgot why filming waited. Probably money.

@PeterRS I could go on and on how much the movie omitted. Aciman tells us how Elio must be an extremely attractive boy, on the cusp of becoming a man, and how Oliver represented everything a teenage boy like Elio would look up to. Really, everyone liked Oliver. They had a nickname for him, the movie star. Elio recalled a missed opportunity when he had been in Rome wondering around, how he drew interest from young men that found Elio quite fetching, and how one kept his arm around Elio, not wanting to let go, even after Elio turned him down. It is no wonder how Oliver fell for Elio and how Elio pined for Oliver. Even the little girl from next door confronted Elio how she could tell how much Oliver liked him. Oliver's challenge in the book was how to tell a teenager you love him. He tried twice. Much of that angst was missing from the movie. I get it. That's what happens when a screenplay is adapted. Yet, if the casting had got the ages right, the movie would have worked more than it did.

I have a copy of The Brothers Karamazov. At some point I'll read it. That it's a translation reminds me how translation can have an effect. I took part in on-line debates regarding Elio and Oliver in Call Me by Your Name and am convinced some of the disagreements on what really happened stemmed from the translation into French or Spanish editions read by members of that group.

@stevenkesslar The Kremlin needs to keep the Nazi narrative alive to deflect focusing on the genocides Russia committed in Poland, Ukraine, Finland and elsewhere, before, during and after WWII.

Poland and the rest of the world know Russia committed genocide at Katyn during WWII, where 22,000 Poles were murdered. Originally, Russia claimed the Nazis were responsible. Over the decades since WWII Russians had taken responsibility yet the Kremlin has continued to float the idea that Nazis were the culprits and also disavowed the terrible nature of the war crimes. This is their wretched nature, now continuing under Genocide Man.

You're all so clever, aren't you? You woke guys and the Lincoln Project. But the MAGA troops know what's important. They owned the libs!!!

Does knowing our Sec. of Defense was a weekend talk show host and knowing he doesn't bother to follow basic rules for secure communication bother anyone? I ask this in light of how Russia's bumbling defense isn't able to stop Ukraine's weapons from inflicting recent, widespread losses all across their homeland. How safe are we when the Pentagon is helmed by such a lightweight?

If Putin doesn't take a break from getting his cock sucked by Trump, murdering Ukrainians, sending Russian soldiers to die, assassinating journalists and political opponents, and ruining the Russian economy, he will end up like Romanian tyrant Ceausescu.

Dutch Ernst is not going to heaven, for the millions she accepted from the NRA, and her gun voting record.

She has always been weird. IMO, she needs a girlfriend to hop on her Harley with, and bring along a deluxe vibrator.

New York Times article on the drone attacks that hit Russia also detailed more attacks by Genocide Man on Ukrainian cities and at least one military base inside Ukraine. Large-Scale Ukrainian Attack Targets Air Bases in Russia Russia’s Defense Ministry said on Sunday that Ukrainian drones attacked airfields in five regions and that several aircraft had caught fire. ....... The Ukrainian drone attacks on Russian airfields came as Kyiv suffered a damaging blow of its own on Sunday, with Russia striking a Ukrainian military training base and killing at least 12 soldiers. ....... Several aircraft caught fire in the regions of Murmansk, near the border with Norway, and Irkutsk, in eastern Siberia, ...... “Today will later be called a black day for Russian long-range aviation,” read a post on the Telegram channel called Fighterbomber, which is believed to be run by Capt. Ilya Tumanov of the Russian Army. A BBC article below reminds that Trump's claim how Zelensky does not hold any cards, was premature. Ukraine's audacious drone attack sends critical message to Russia - and the West

Ukraine and Russia are scheduled to meet again tomorrow for peace talks. In the meantime...... Yesterday, Ukraine hit bases inside Russia, destroying 1/3 of Russia's bombers, according to Adam Kinzinger's Substack. Kinzinger emphasized how significant was the success of these attacks inside Russia. https://substack.com/@adamkinzinger/note/c-121948233 https://youtu.be/YW6fLddxdOo?si=NhU9l1NzNSk9X08H&t=52 This comes after deadly Russian train crashes caused by bridge collapse. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UlnfTaYGdWw When will Russians start to blame Genocide Man, how he drains his country to fight Ukraine?

He disrespects America, but gives N. Korea and Russia an anal tongue bath. Did he even salute the door man? What a joke of a president.

He invaded Arlington Cemetery to produce a campaign ad (which is never allowed out of respect for those that died serving). So his excessive preoccupation with himself and no one else leads to this lack of respect for those that served and those currently in harms way. If I had a son or daughter serving right now, I would be extra concerned. What must be going through the minds of those graduating cadets, when at the podium is a president who consistently lies, cheats and steals? Sadly, many in the military may not understand where Trump is taking them.

Looking at the list of who he's pardoned, it's worrisome. These are people that did the insurrection, the guys that planned to kidnap Whitmer, people that cheated on their taxes and stole from others, folks that made big donations to Trumps campaign, etc. Of course mostly white people. This is what a fascist does.

Government ethics? Didn't Trump get rid of all the Inspectors General? These days Washington is about as ethical as Hedley Lamarr.
