@SeanTrende And what races are you watching?
@wajacobson @MattWalshBlog The dude is toxic.

If you went through ‘06 cycle, this year feels like déjà vu. In ‘06 at this point, W. Bush approve = 37%. Trump at 38%. Generic ballot in Sept. of ‘06: D+6.5, Generic Ballot now: D+6.5 In both years: Unpopular war, Members mired in sex scandals. (Sherwood, Foley then; Miller, Mills now).

Please stop flying your personal drones over wildfires. They can ground or collide with our firefighting aircraft, disrupting time critical firefighting and threatening people’s homes. Your photos are not worth someone’s home. If you fly, we can’t.
@seanhannity I’m glad you’re calling this out Sean just like when you called out the President for his bait and switch on the ballroom.

Spokane is dealing with historic fire damage. 137 years ago today was another historic fire. August 4, 1889, a fire sparked on Railroad Alley. Within hours, it destroyed 32 city blocks. There's a marker about it on Lincoln, just south of the Davenport Hotel.
@tedcruz The DC rules are similar to most city's rules for raising chickens inside the city and in residential zoned areas. I'd think the Vice President would want to set a sterling example of how to do it. That's quite the chicken coop.
@AzPetrich @jonathanstea He is, though, an eater of roadkill. I suspect he’s well suited for the post apocalyptic times he seems like he’s working toward.

This just happened again in the last hour. Drone incursion forced firefighting aircraft to land. It had been working on the Autumn Lane Fire.
FIREWATCH: Firefighters working on the wildfires in Spokane County say they've had to ground air support due to 26 personal drones flying over crews. kxly.com/news/firefight…

Today is the deadline for McConnell to withdraw for a replacement to be named. Tomorrow is the deadline for Dem Senate candidate Julian Beaudion to drop out. And Wednesday is Max Miller's deadline. Will any of them do it????? via @MariannaReports
A run of ballot deadlines this week could scramble Senate races in Kentucky, South Dakota, and Ohio. Meanwhile, a Kansas measure over how judges are picked is drawing millions in opposition spending. More from @LACaldwellDC & @MariannaReports: puck.news/the-deadline-d…
@STATter911 @michaelscherer @ARLnowDOTcom @matthewyoung31 @HCBright10 @CordellTraffic @NFTC_News I’m convinced getting a license is not hard enough and people should be retested at intervals. Also, we might want to consider licensed with specific limitations like no night driving or not freeway driving. Just spitballing.
@Sheila69816269 @G_Wagon211 @ScottMcConnell9 You don't cheat in friendly games either.
@AdamKinzinger Things aren’t always what they appear to be. Apparently neither the President or Ms Miller are experts on pool coating technologies. There are things we don’t know that we don’t know.
@SenRandPaul @WA_News_Junkie Yes. I wore a mask after being vaccinated. Also, I have yet to get COVID. I listened to the people who have the training and experience and prayed for the best. I do the same when I see my ophthalmologist.

The only figure you need to show antivaxers when they start talking there "we were right" nonsense. Kind of hard to be correct when you die from a disease you don't think exists...
I’m looking up the definition of grifting…
Trump’s media company today began selling early access to the president’s posts on Truth Social for up to $100k a month to financial institutions. I talked to former SEC lawyers, who see the service as a violation of insider trading laws. And a Wall Street executive, who told

Trump is now all but the most unpopular second-term president at this stage of their tenure in the history of polling. The only exception: Nixon had even less public support at this stage but at that point he was just days away from resigning. nytimes.com/2026/08/01/us/…
