Get Your Dunkin' Wednesday

 That didn't last long. The Ambassador to Greece, Kimberly Guilfolye, has resigned (no link; it's on X). It must be worse than we think. WHICH IS BAD. She has already been caught trying to get a donor to pay off her credit card debt. There are back deals a plenty. I believe this is how the majority of the Trump administration acts. This is the culture. Unapologetic corruption. Democrats need to investigate. Kim Gremlin is a good start. It's all on Signal. The app seems to be the corruption conductor of choice.  Here are your highlights:   Stealing from the poor. SNAP benefits are being stolen , and the ones who need them the most are losing out with no government help in sight.  Trump's new Press Secretary is an untalented, moronic, Nazi-Barbie .  A new bridge linking North Korea and China is opening .  Whoops! Inflation comes in hot right as the midterms begin . Did I mention gas is up 9%? I hope one of these days we get a documentary on Netflix about who ...

Get Your Dunkin' Tuesday

 The kids had school off yesterday. So no blogging. What did I miss? Welp, Trump made an oil deal with Russia. Nothing to worry about there. He had his FBI raid  Rep. Ilhan Omar's home . And Trump has asked former Gavin Newsom and Don Jr.'s lover, Kim Gremlin, to resign . Got that? Breathe. The midterms are upon us, and it looks like we can win the House and maybe the Senate. Let's vote these fascists out.  Here are your highlights:   Saudi airport struck again . Things are escalating.  Can't make this up. GOP ad buyer spent money in the wrong state! Spent the money in Oregon instead of Maine. SCOTUS wants to protect Elon and DOGE .  Ken Paxton's campaign really needs to be studied. He's been caught hanging out with two criminals in Dubai.    AI Centers are coming for federal land .  Speaking of AI, Mark Zuckerberg is not human . I'm jumping on the lizard people conspiracy (I kid). But I think it's so funny when he and his other oligarchs si...

Get Your Dunkin' Friday

 A race war . Trump said it out loud. It's what he's been calling for since he was first elected, but he just "truthed" it out. I feel for the people of Minnesota and the Somali community. The amount of terror Trump has rained down on their cities has been relentless. Now, he's trying to incite his extremist base to start killing them. He must be stopped. I know Walz and his team will be prepared, but you can't work with the FBI on this one. We know which side they're choosing.  Here are your highlights:  Hurricane Isaias strengthens and heads toward landfall . Prayers for the Gulf Coast.  There's something really disturbing about Hegseth's desire for blood. Orders a live-streamed execution of the Ft. Hood shooter .  Sen. Jon Ossoff has time, and he's closing really strong .  Democratic Senate candidate SC Annie Andrews, on the other hand, is not. Do not throw trans folks, especially kids, under the bus. Fuck this consultant crap .  Nobel Peace...

Get Your Dunkin' Thursday

The midterms are less than a month away, and Republicans appear to be in disarray. It's kind of funny to watch all the ways they are scrambling. Trump was in Texas again to support non-Texan Paxton. There are races that are too close to call that shouldn't be. The anti-incumbent sentiment is strong. Amongst all the noise, I haven't seen a clear vision offered up by Democrats. Each candidate seems to be appealing to their constituency with variations of health care, prices, war, and chaos. Honestly, I don't care; win. And then get shit done.  Here are your highlights:   South Korea tests its first hypersonic weapon .  Michigan police suggest they might have a serial killer targeting houseless men .  Arizona Dem candidate says she was r*ped while fixing a campaign sign . Fuckin' awful.  The price of diesel is crazy high, and Trump is to blame .  Nothing should surprise us anymore, BUT Don Jr.'s ex, Kimberly Guilfoyle, has been up to some wild stuff as Ambassa...

Get Your Dunkin' Wednesday

 We got a small win locally. A data center is not being built...for now. We rallied. People showed up. And the council rescinded the plan. Activism works. Organizing works. Big AI needs to slow down, work with locals, and use clean energy. They can't just park data centers right next door. As someone else said, "This is our land." Here are your highlights:   It baffles me that Susan Collins is still running for the Senate. God, I hate her.  A group of detained immigrants have launched a hunger strike in a Georgia ICE facility .  Russia continues to commit war crimes .  Spain's endless line of corruption .  If we had a functioning Congress, we'd legislate something like Kalshi targeting Native American tribes .  Republicans are worried their cash ain't enough to steal the midterms .  I am Frank Chow, and I approve this message.  I am Frank Chow, and I approve this message.

Get Your Dunkin' Tuesday

Another day, another crazy thing the president said. Either he has dementia, or he's absolutely insane. Maybe both. Iran might bomb California. He's both. I don't understand how the media continues acting like he's normal. There are images of him standing crooked. It looks like he was using some walking assistance. Crickets. Jake Tapper, are your ears buzzing yet?  Here are your highlights: RFK Jr. is a racist piece of shit who should be in jail for stealing funds from those in need.  The Paramount merger is horrible. Skydance is the new stupid name .  Detaining citizens . Abolish ICE.  The Fox News interview of the "friends" of Nolan Wells needs to be studied .  France has a student uprising .  A new documentary about Gaza and Israel is receiving standing ovations. NAZA .  I am Frank Chow, and I approve this message.

Get Your Dunkin' Monday

 We had a lovely meeting of like-minded liberal folks yesterday. We're a small group of progressives in our small town, but it's always nice to chat and figure out how we can effect change. One pressing issue is data centers. No one likes them. Not even die-hard MAGA folks. A town near us had some shady dealing s and might get a large data center soon. It's causing quite the fuss. I don't think officials realize how much data centers piss people off. AI for what?  Here are your highlights:   Trump names Jay Clayton as new AI Czar . "Super intelligence" guy with no super intelligence.  This sounds familiar. Russian researcher dies of plague, shutting down several hospitals .  SCOTUS back in session . It'll be interesting to see how they deny climate change.  China is shrinking its banks .  The Iran War is leaving soldiers to fend for themselves .  The Ethiopian war is escalating, causing alarm across Africa .  I am Frank Chow, and I approve th...
