Just heard a Republican consultant attack the “social elements” in the Democratic Party. I’m sure he meant “socialist” but it’s pretty telling.
Trump at a rally:
“They put a ballot down where they’re talking about ‘incumbent’ Republican, and the other one. Most people don’t know in Alaska — and a lot of other states, too — what does incumbent mean? I don’t know what incumbent means,” he said.
So I guess the DOJ theory is that Republican voters are as stupid as the President is. That should get thrown out of court quickly: I refuse to believe that a majority of even Republicans could be as stupid as the idiot in the White House.
Looks like today’s task is installing Syncthing and KeePass.
Fuck the corporate bros and slopmongers for making me waste time on this.
The Courts Doing Their Job
- Court rejects Trump admin bid to block California vote count, cites disenfranchisement risk
- US judge blocks Trump policies fast-tracking children’s asylum cases
- US judge orders ethics investigation into DOJ lawyers in golf course dispute
- Trump defamation suit against Murdoch, WSJ over Epstein letter dismissed with prejudice
- Judge orders Trump administration to stop threatening US election officials
So much losing. Pretty sure this is the losingest losing administration of losing losers in history.
October Hiking & Walking Summary
- 21 days of 5+ miles
- Longest day 32.5 miles Winberry/Alpine/Cloverpatch/Tire Mountain Trails
- 268.9 total miles (pretty sure this is my largest ever single month)
- 2089.5 miles year-to-date
Trip reports and photos from the more interesting wilderness hikes.
If you actually look at the Alaska ballot it clearly indicates which Dan Sullivan is the current Senator. So the Trump DOJ lawsuit assumes that Republican voters are too stupid to know the meaning of “incumbent.”

So does the heron.
Texas federal judge fails to appear for judicial misconduct investigative hearing
I am amazed that there is a Federal judge who is too wack-a-doo for the Fifth Circuit.
