A former three-time Russian Olympic champion wrestler who became a lawmaker was just found dead in Moscow after reportedly falling out of a window.

How long until people start falling out of buildings in Moscow on the Potomac?

We are actually 2 weeks away from Opening Day as MLB has the Dodgers and Cubs opening in Tokyo on March 18. Guess they figured, anyone who can afford Dodgers tickets this year especially can afford to fly to Japan.

(Opening day prices in Tokyo rival the Super Bowl, maybe higher.)

-Melania Trump decided to come out of hiding to to organize a roundtable about a bipartisan anti AI deep fake porn bill, and called out low Democrat attendance.

Spare me the performative BS . Maybe FLOTUS should ask her husband and President Musk why he CUT the bill, actually cosponsored by odd couple Amy Klobuchar and Ted Cruz, out of the 2024 budget bill when it was originally included with bipartisan support.

Maybe because Twitter makes a lot of money on porn? Or was he just being a d*ck.

Meanwhile the cost of servicing President Non-Elect Musk, who is now riding on Air Force One with his child-prop-du-jour, and staying in the White House, is so much more than many of the life-saving programs that he has cut.

Some of RFK Jr’s disciples are saying why do we need measles vaccines even if the disease returns because most children survived measles before the vaccine existed.

For that matter, many of us survived growing up in the era before seat belts and drove long distances with our parents while bouncing around in the back seats. So should we get rid of seat belts too?

–

RFK Jr. “The decision to vaccinate is a personal one.” Wonder what would happen if when pulled over for driving 100 mph you told a police officer – the decision to obey speed limits is a personal one?.

–

If Democrats want to spend a couple hours focused on Russian oligarchs Tuesday night maybe they should skip the State of the Union and go see Anora.

–

Meanwhile, has Velveeta Voldemort said a word about the fires in South Carolina yet?

–

Democrats warned us over & over again in 2024. Trump is Project 2025.

American voters elected Donald & GOP majority in Congress. And they w/ President Musk are enacting Project 2025.

Now voters are screaming at Democrats to “do something.”

When the something WE should have done was vote blue.

NY pitcher Nestor Cortes now says that the Yankees were ‘Better Team’ in their 2024 World Series loss.

What’s next…. “The Yankees would have won if only Mike Pence had had the courage?”

–

In a NFLPA survey, NY Jets players gave owner Woody Johnson an F grade.

Why an F? Because they didn’t have the option for a G?

–

WTAF? Trump just said. No other country in the world does mail in voting.

Uh, Canada, Germany, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Poland, S. Korea, Switzerland, Australia, & the United Kingdom. And I might have missed some. No lie too small.

Rachel Maddow tonight talks about marmots which carry deadly bubonic plague. Even Russia banned hunting them… And Rachel found video of Donny Jr. hunting eating them – admitting “it’s kind of contrabandy.” Well, maybe Jr should host a wildlife dinner for some dad’s friends.

Rmembering early days of COVID in Florida when governor Ron DeSantis hid many COVID deaths by ascribing them to other causes. What excuses will President Musk & VP Trump use to describe deaths from being unvaccinated. Or from not getting lifesaving services that DOGE is cutting?

–

If a child is killed by an undocumented immigrant Fox News and GOP members of Congress will make their death front page news for weeks, if not longer. An unvaccinated child dies from measles in Texas, and Fox & GOP pretend that child never existed.

–

Grok is Twitter’s own AI And this from last night: “During a House Oversight Committee meeting, tensions escalated when Representative Maxwell Frost called former President Donald Trump a ‘grifter,’

“Former?”

–

Not a joke Sean Spicer posted today the White House is taking control from the White House Correspondents Association as far as the press pool because the WHCA invited a “Trump hating comedian” to their annual dinner.

Thinnest-skinned baby-man President ever.

–

JD Vance actually said Trump “chooses his words” carefully. Read that and almost spit out my covfefe.

–

21 DOGE employees resign en masse in protest “We will not use our skills to compromise core government services.” Translation. They think Leon is TRYING to compromise core government services.

Marge Three Names just said “federal employees do not deserve their paycheck.” Well, there’s one federal employee in Georgia’s 14th congressional district who does not deserve her $174,000 paycheck.

–

Trump says he will sell citizenships for $5 million to foreigners as a “gold card” version of a green card. So what if some Democratic billionaires decide to donate money to buy citizenships for liberal resisters around the world? Asking for a country.

–

In hopes of lowering egg prices, USDA now says they will spend $100 million for research into vaccines and therapeutics for U.S. chicken flocks. So Trump wants to vaccinate chickens, but children be damned? Very on brand.
