If only we could collectively agree to forget the last eight years like the residents of Springfield could forget about the real Seymour Skinner.

Yeah, there’s no way BlueSky would ban someone before they’ve made a single post. Even if their name/avatar advocated violence or depicted naked kids or such, they’d get some kind of notification that they needed to change said name or avatar.
Maybe Elon promised Loomer full reinstatement if she did something to undermine his rival BlueSky…?
‘I double-dog dare you!’

Trump has ordered his nominees to shut up and stop posting until after they’ve been confirmed, which I can only assume is targeted at the idiot who’s been paying $2000 a night to live in his mother-in-law cottage.
Heh. It’s possible. But on the other hand these right-wingers make money only when their audience sees them as Tough and Unstoppable and all that sort of thing. Loomer would never have chosen to be humiliated by Musk, even if there was a payoff in the future (via her pretending to go to his rival and then pretending it was Unfair). So I don’t think it was a case of dares–not even the triple-dog dare.
Remember when Trump said, “You wouldn’t want to be Loomered?” Was Loomer Loomered by Musk?
Her account is still there and active.
That still doesn’t answer the question: Which of the two, Trump or Musk, is the lapdog sleeping at the door of the other one?
Not to mention the misspellings and other mistakes in the message. Also, I checked to see if there were other examples of similar ban notices from Bluesky being sent to anyone else, because surely this would be some standard form letter, and despite reading numerous indications of people complaining about being banned, never have I seen anything resembling what she claimed she received.
In other words, it seems completely made up. She’s just another right winger trying to look like a victim in the mold of her Lord and Savior Trump.

Here’s the real question:
This doesn’t mean that Vice President-to-be J.D. Vance has handed over his duties, as a source told the Times. He also stayed in one of the cottages when he visited.
Did Vance have to pay? Imagine dumbing yourself down enough to become Trump’s VP, and then being stuck with thousands in hotel costs because Trump expects you to rent a room from him during the transition.
To Trump, everybody else is a sucker. This is a guy who left his previous vice-president out to be lynched by the insurrectionist mob he set upon the Capitol despite the fact that Pence had been a perfect lickspittle in staunchly defending Trump’s most morally indefensible behavior. He’d eat J.D. Vance’s liver if given the chance, only not with fava beans and Chianti but only if deep fried in KFC’s Special Blend and served with fries and a Coke.

Yup. He overcharged the Secret Service while it protected him, too.
But this made me smile:
Don Jr. says he hates New Years at Mar-a-Lago because his dad’s friends are all stupid jerks.
There’s a very good reason for that, Don.
That story was apparently too intellectually challenging for Nancy Mace to be able to understand. She took it as GREAT news for Donald:
Poor Nancy Mace. Mocked without mercy for merely being pathetically stupid.
I was just thinking… Vivek Ramaswamy was born to non-citizen parents. That makes him an ‘anchor baby’, right? Of course he says that his parents were in the country legally, so all this talk about children born the U.S. to non-citizen parents doesn’t apply to him. (And yet it would apply to Obama, who was born in the U.S., because his father was legally in the U.S. and his mother was a U.S. citizen.) I would laugh my hairy ass off if Ramaswany could be hoisted with his own petard.
Shades of Max Naumann.
None of these people give a good whore’s fuck about intellectual consistency or philosophical integrity as long as they can hook their wagon to the current in-group. Vivek Ramaswamy is a real piece of shit who was formerly CEO of Roivant Sciences, a ‘Big Pharma’ adjacent company infamous for spurious acquisition, fraudulent research trials, and “pump & dump” schemes. He cares about integrity about as much as a billy goat cares about smelling fresh.

Stupid? Evidently not if they recognize that junior’s an imbecile. Jerks? He got that one right. They support his daddy and that is currently the Platonic ideal of being a jerk.
You’re forgetting the magaflatearthers still believe Obama was not born in the United States.
Except that he was.
