Recent Bluessky Posts- Had one been elected promising national health that would have been strong evidence of a winning coalition for it. That sort of thing becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy sometimes. Electoral campaigns are not the moment to discuss the nuts and bolts of horse-trading. They're the time to inspire.

- Seems to me there ought to be a problem if large numbers of women whose married names didn't match their birth names will need to get a passport in order to vote, and that passport will come with a partisan portrait. www.thebulwark.com/p/exclusive-... April 29, 2026 Michael Froomkin
- Sad to learn that Barney Frank has entered hospice. Unfortunate he turned against the party's left, his natural allies, later in his career. April 29, 2026 Michael Froomkin
- If anything this post understates the case for the transparent idiocy of the new Comey indictment. I really wonder what the people who signed it think they are doing, and how they got that way. I sure hope I never see any former law student of mine in such a position. April 28, 2026 Michael Froomkin

This appears on the Urban Legends site. To summarize, in 2003 at least two Kern County CA patrol cars had the decal “We’ll kick your ass” printed on them. Someone photoshopped in “and take your doughnuts too!”
This is TOO Funnie! Brilliant find!
The filling station I stopped at yesterday had about 20 ex-cop cars for sale in the parking lot. Some had the decals removed but many didn’t.
I was wondering about buying one in case I ever needed to pick up Jon Bellushi from a prison, then I remembered he was dead.
Would be fun to add a ‘take your donuts’ decal to one of them…
Are there any specific laws about driving round in cop cars if you are not impersonating a policeman? The main disadvantage would be that the traffic would always slow down around you.
Kern County — Those cops don’t fuck around.
