TC: Winner Winner Chicken Dinner. NORM EISEN & Co-counsel got their TRO signed, sealed & served on the U.S. government to STOP Elmo & his Children Brigade of saboteurs.

The Order is at Case 1:25-cv-00313 - CKK.

Thank you & the Country thanks you, Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly! (CKK)

Thank you!

Awesome! What happens next, Bryan? In practical terms? Is the technical cat already out of the bag?

Good question. The Order is 2 pages & the Judge had her sites on the U.S. government. Of course, I want a After-Court-Battle read out from Norm on 'The Contrarian'.

Further 'Law & Motion' I suspect but, I would go with an "OSC" and Order to Show Cause re Contempt. I would document violations of the existing Order with admissible evidence and/or public admissions by the 8 saboteurs Musk & the 7 Kids.

Funny that Trump is worried about trans females sharing the locker room.

But HIM going into the dressing rooms of pageants, no problem, eh?

Just who is more likely to assault the women: trans-women or Trump?

It must be one of his greatest fears - going for a grab of pussy only to discover his tiny hand filled with a meat and two veg.

So appreciate TC poking the pig

I thought this one on immigrant deportations was interesting. US immigration is gaming Google to create a mirage of mass deportations.

And I thought everything on google is true. Ha! This article laid out how awful it has become. I rarely use it anymore.

I love you, TC, for so many reasons, especially your calling out of the flagrantly despicable mfers of the t admin. I’d ask for you to be my baby daddy, but, alas, I’m 84. However, the thought is there.

I signed up for his AG newsletter 2 days ago and this was the first news release I received🤗🤗🤗! I have signed up for news at Sen’s. Murray and Cantwell and Rep. Japayal’s websites hoping to get “fast breaking news”…have not gotten any updates🫣. Sen. Jeff Merkley has been very active posting on Facebook.

Murray and Jayapal send emails about every quarter. Haven't heard from Cantwell in ages. Last week Murray warned against taking the scam buyout offer. Yes, she called it a scam.

Making phone calls and writing cards and letters is what so many of us do best, especially now when the street protests draw in the Kyle Rittenhouse crowd and right wing bogus Antifa cos players. And using the word "primary" in creative ways is very attention getting,

to the point where actual snail mail responses arrive.

Appreciate the Syntax tip.

Such shocking news from the prez—“THIS COULD BE THE BIGGEST SCANDAL OF THEM ALL, PERHAPS THE BIGGEST IN HISTORY! “ Whoops, no, just another lie from the compulsive liar who attacked his own government on January 6, mismanaged the Covid outbreak, made it political about mask wearing and over a million people died and are still dying. But that’s old stuff. Pardoning and releasing the j6 rioters to make his own militia, now that’s a scandal we will be dealing with for a very long time. And when the government computers crash, who will be blamed for that? 🤮🤡🎃💩🐍🤮. The biggest clown president in history. 🤡

Thank you for finishing on a more positive note. I can't help but wonder what happened to that stollen. I would have loved to have a piece to go with my coffee.

I call my state and federal elected officials every day, but I am no lady. You confuse me with my mother. I'm just a grown ass woman.

From the Biggest Sycophant In History Dept….Rubio could also be new director of National Archives. How many suck-up jobs does he have now ???

“Yeah, that’s right. Or, maybe it’s right? No one is really sure. Multiple news outlets are reporting that a couple of days after having USAID shoved into his portfolio at State, Marco Rubio is also running the National Archives now.”

Tom, darling, you swear like a poet drunk on gin and righteous fury, and I love you for it. The Department of Dilbert Could Fuck Up a Wet Dream? Inspired. If only government agencies were named as accurately, C-SPAN might actually be watchable.

Next, there’s his Executive Order of Bigotry—banning trans athletes, because of course. “With this, the war on women’s sports is over!” Right. Not with equal funding, not with investment, but with the raw, sweaty cruelty of a man who once paid Stormy Daniels to spank him with a magazine and still doesn’t understand why she didn’t fall in love.

But joy of joys, Tesla is tanking! Sales are plummeting in Europe, because it turns out people don’t actually want their car to be a rolling shrine to Divorced Dad Forum Mod Energy. Somewhere in Germany, an entrepreneur is making a fortune off bumper stickers that say “I Bought This Before Elon Went Full Nazi.”

Best moment of the day? Judy Chu and Gwen Moore storming Mike Johnson’s office like lesbian Batman and Robin. Gwen barrels in first, Judy hot on her heels, demanding answers about Musk poking around Treasury. Johnson, clutching his Bible and his pearls, whimpers something about civility. Perfect.

And then, the calls. 1,600 a minute. That’s not democracy; that’s an air raid siren. Senate Dems forced 30 hours of debate on Russell Vought’s appointment, which means Republicans were subjected to their own idiocy on loop like a self-inflicted hostage situation.

Tom, you remain a national treasure. When the resistance finally topples these fascist clowns, I vote we rename a government agency in your honor. The Department of Daily Diatribes has a nice ring to it.

Lesbian Batman and Robin? You really want to bring homophobia to this space? Who cares about their sexual partners.

Expand full comment

I would like to point out that all these people who are so upset about the “integrity” of women’s sports never cared one iota about women’s sports until they heard about trans women. Oh and didn’t the head of the NCAA just estimate that very few college athletes are trans?

I’ve called Fetterman’s office a few times; admittedly needs to be more, but my daily plate is rather full. I do what I can, however I can. It’s great to know that it makes waves, and I appreciate your writing, TC. So much good stuff.

Blake Moore's comment made me harken back to an oldie but a goodie along those same lines, from the inimitable Negrodamus (aka Paul Mooney), "White people like Wayne Brady because he makes Brian Gumbel look like Malcolm X."

And regarding the Kamala kerfluffle with CBS - she still lost the election, so the "selective editing" didn't work.

I was actually able to get a mump cultist (on FB) to admit that removing accessibility (the "A" in DEIA) was bad. (miracle of miracles!) He then proceeded to delete the comment because they can't even admit they were wrong and need to cover up the worst parts of their nazism.
