Just checking in with CR. Been away for a while.

So... the Wheels of Justice ... are they still rolling forward inexorably ... to save us from a Trump-Musk dictatorship?

Any Surly top shelf law dogs got a status update?

So is TikTok being shuttered, but the rubes have just moved on to Red Note, a straight up Chinese spy app. We deserve everything that is coming.

Next you’ll tell me he wasn’t really the biggest fan of the American Olympic team!

I sometimes chuckle thinking what The Chronic era Snoop Doggy Dogg would think of middle age Snoop Dogg.

Schedule for tomorrow. I love the theme.

  • the procession to the Capitol; 
  • the vice president's swearing-in ceremony; 
  • the president's swearing-in ceremony; 
  • the inaugural address;
  • the honorary departure of the outgoing president and vice president; 
  • the signing ceremony, during which the new president signs nominations, memorandums, proclamations or executive orders; 
  • the inaugural luncheon; 
  • and the pass in review, during which the president and vice president review military troops before leading the parade down Pennsylvania Avenue to the White House.

The theme of this year's ceremonies is "Our Enduring Democracy: A Constitutional Promise."

Day one of propaganda from the new admin.

When Trump "saves Tik Tok" on Tuesday after being the guy who called for it to be banned just a few short years ago and then somehow ends up with a stake in the new company who owns it, it will be just yet another masterclass in how he's able to snow both the media and the public while keeping his eternal grift going.

Yea! More brain rot for our youth who will now see Trump as the person who saved their Tik Tok when this was all a stunt. 

Meanwhile, Tom Cotton is not happy with it so maybe there will be some Senators with spines for a short little while.

Trump isn't even sworn in yet.  

But, Cotton surprised me here.  He'll get back in line soon enough.

A quick search on Coinbase shows dozens, if not hundreds, of trump cryptocurrencies. Each one dumber than the next, and none of them worth more than several thousandths of a dollar. It’s all so stupid.

Good, Tom, fucking impeach him.  Unfortunately, Congress can jawbone about this until they're blue in the face, but there's little legal recourse.

So, apparently, Tik Tok went dark yesterday as a result of the ruling.

Today, it is back and crediting Trump for bringing it back.

This is the worst fucking timeline.

I guess the PRC just got Barron the rights to Botswana or something.

Could be in the leopards eating faces thread since Trump has said all along he is allowed to do whatever he wants and doesn’t believe in democracy.

My bad Charlwin Mao, for thinking you named your ”Little Red Book” after Mao’s “Little Red Book” when it was really named after Stanford and Bain Capital.

i wonder who's going to have a more difficult time...

TikTok fans who detest Trump or Trump fans who supported the ban bc he said so. 

oh who am i kidding...the latter group will experience no conflict whatsoever bc they literally live immersed in cognitive dissonance. if their god says it's so then it is so.

the first group though... that's a lot of young and creative folks. including my niece who would fucking stab Trump if given the chance lol. he lost the <40 demo by a lot (especially <25)... despite somebody apparently telling him he won young people 'by 34 points' 😆

perhaps misplaced, but i do put a bit more faith in the younger folks (at least those i know) being able to grasp nuance in this situation and understand this is pure manipulation. i mean... he's literally been saying exactly that for the past several days! but the maga folks have demonstrated again and again they are too stupid to ever get it, they embrace being manipulated. 

shit is seriously bonkers and it's just getting started 😜
