Exile In DC

Musings on the 3 Ps (politics, energy policy, and the Pittsburgh Pirates), hewing to the old adage, don't be on the wrong side of history. Views are my own.

Good morning, my fellow Americans . . .

[The Intellectualist @highbrow_nobrow]

The President of the United States does not merely seem to carry hate in his heart; it appears to be his governing compass. A country of 350 million people is being led toward destruction because the Republican Party is too afraid to speak plainly about what is happening in front of everyone’s eyes.

[Lakota Man @LakotaMan1]

Why does he keep waking up?

Go to the light old man. Go to the light.

@BobSmizik Ergo, don’t wait for first place to take your kid to a game, who knows what might happen. 🏴‍☠️

[Exile In DC @ExileInDC]

@BobSmizik Bob, a few years ago during yet another middling season, you pointed out that even a mediocre Pirates team wins more than half its home games and at least “has a shot” in many they ultimately lose. As a loyal ticket buyer through thick and thin, I think of that post often.

[Terry Moran 🇺🇸 @TerryMoran]

We’re all supposed to pretend this isn’t happening a lot?

How does this make us look to the rest of the world?

[Exile In DC @ExileInDC]

@RepBrandonGill Oh, we’ll fight, Brandon.

We’ll fight for the Civil Rights Act, the Voting Rights Act, the ADA, equal treatment under the law. In other words, laws and values that frighten soulless Kluxxers like you.

Go fuck yourself.

[Exile In DC @ExileInDC]

@endofmarx @NancyMace I’m a boomer and I agree with you!

@tlyles77txgal @RepClayHiggins @matrixescapee65 Says a slackjawed Texas bimbo who’s never been out of the country. (Cancun doesn’t count, toots.)

Delete your account.

[Ken Buck @KenBuck2]

@RepClayHiggins I served. We promised to defend the territorial integrity of Ukraine if they would give up their nuclear weapons and sign the nuclear nonproliferation agreement. The did so honorably. They trusted us. Only dishonest cowards who shame our country would vote against this bill.

[Exile In DC @ExileInDC]

@RepClayHiggins Hey, Clay, you’re an astonishingly stupid hillbilly who serves as a drooling lackey to a mentally ill Russian asset. There should be a special place in hell for traitorous election-denying Putin promoters like you. You bring nothing but disgrace to Congress, resign immediately.

Indistinguishable from the onion

[Exile In DC @ExileInDC]

@MacyGunnell That’s what’s called a red herring: “Libs” don’t like clean fountains and everybody who opposes your traitorous orange pigdaddy is a “lib.”

Try this, Macy: Go fuck yourself, you’re too stupid to exist.

@Mpolymer All over America today, people are asking "who the fuck is 'Nick Bilton?'"

[Exile In DC @ExileInDC]

@rms22green @MehekCooke @ClayTravis “Career.” 🤪

[Exile In DC @ExileInDC]

@MehekCooke @ClayTravis Because he didn’t snap into line with the fascists like you? Or are you just a natural fascist?

[Exile In DC @ExileInDC]

This one from 2018 never gets old. What an arrogant narcissistic flatulent pig he is.

[😱 Scary Larry 😱 🇺🇦✊🏻🇺🇸🗽 @aintscarylarry]

Here’s Fuckface going full Hitler, calling the press the “enemy of the people” because he’s a miserable fucking failure & gets all butthurt if anyone asks a real question. But the child-raping sack of shit’s got it all wrong. HE is the enemy of the people.

[Gianl1974 @Gianl1974]

Trump has no public events on his schedule again today. The last time he was seen publicly for something other than a pre-taped interview was six days ago -- Wednesday, May 27 -- for his cabinet meeting. (He went to Walter Reed the day before.)
