Incompetence Donny? You mean like dismissing the initial cases of a deadly virus as a non-issue that would disappear once the spring warm weather arrived only to sit by while hundreds of thousands of Americans died on your watch? And when the first vaccine was ready for mass distribution you had no plan or clue as to how to distribute it, then calling for ingesting disinfectant or injecting light into the bloodstream as a viable alternative? Or your multiple bankruptcies, failed businesses and grifts spanning decades? That high octane level of incompetence?
Heh. I live in Los Angeles. I know of what I speak here. Everything right now is serious around here, seriously. Have you seen the fires here, by the way? Hot.
Just wonder it is true CA - 2014 approved a $7.5B bond to construct water storage facilities not 1 is complete 8 years later? If true sounds like Mayor Pete and EV charging stations
I’ve been telling all my friends about TFN - the best news source on Substack, IMHO. Who doesn’t like truth telling with a little snark and sarcasm thrown in? I’m a HUGE fan!
Again (and again) I blame Democrats more than the media. No doubt I get the both sides / sanewashing arguments. They have been articulated many times on various Substacks. That being said your headlines would be even better served coming out of the mouths of Democrats. In that case the media would have no choice but to follow suit just as they do in slicing and dicing every fart that blows out Insane Clown's ass. Again (and again) the unspeakable forbidden words Climate Crisis never came out Kamala's mouth. Preferring instead to twist herself into knots trying to explain her fracking flip flop.
I don't know who decided that the way to beat an Insane Clown madman was to present a joyous pom pom waving Barbie Doll. But I don't think it matters who chairs the DNC. Democrats are plagued with a relentless will to lose.
Speaking of John Barrasso, Republican Senator from Wyoming. Which states get the most? Give the least? Red or Blue? How does John Barrasso's state of Wyoming rank? Check this StoryMap.
Giver vs Taker States Map: Look who’s whining about providing emergency aid to California wildfire victims
Historically, fire fighting (not the spontaneous bucket brigade kind), was done by paid individuals working for what was called an insurance company. You had a plaque on the front of your house and if it was for paid up membership of the guys with the water they’d put out the fire. If your plaque was for a different company or non-existent, they let you burn. I am not making this up.
This is kind of how the current right wing and I suppose libertarian mind sees as suitable for all public service. Government need not apply.

Excellent reporting, as usual.
Fucking superb
Thank you, Barbara.
Seriously great
Not TOO serious … ;)
Sorry for the subtle Paris Hilton reference. ;)

Oh, no. I will keep a thought for you. And hopefully federal disaster aid.
Thank you, much appreciated!

Wow, Deb, thanks so much!

Media totally sold out; many aren’t incompetent, just don’t give a shit.
Obama care AND the ACA deadlines on the SAME day??!! Coincidence??! I think not. Must be a conspiracy....
They're doing it RIGHT OUT IN THE OPEN!!!
Been Wikler does have an excellent record of strengthening the Democratic Party in Wisconsin, bringing about actual wins and changes.

Yes! Police, too, started off very much as private enterprises. And then people used their brains! Infuriating to see us going backwards on purpose.
