Vote For The Garbage Can | Negligent Discharge Friday | 8.14.2026

Michael is moving to Missoula, so this one opens with a resignation and gets worse from there.

A man in a garbage can is polling at 20% against Nigel Farage in Clacton, and his platform makes more sense than it should.

Term limits, and the unelected career staff who actually run the machine.

Early access to Truth Social posts for $60,000 to $100,000 a month. Trading firms have already signed up.

A president clearing north of two billion in his first year back in office, and why the silence around it is deafening.

A California mayor who pleaded guilty to working as an unregistered agent of China.

A former Marine home after four years in a Russian prison.

What prison is actually for. Punishment, incapacitation, rehabilitation, and where the line sits.

A carrier at sea 250 days straight, what that does to 5,000 people with no end date, and the guy I watched grab a fire extinguisher and jump.

Also: a four mile run, PT school, and a second wiener dog named Beans.
