Welcome to Gilead…
Pritzker gave a master class in how to stand up to an authoritarian bully. He needs to be on the air more often and get the Dems whipped up.
Every hour 88 people die as the result of the USAID cuts. We have exceeded 155 9/11’s in deaths (465,388). Is this making America great? www.impactcounter.com/dashboard?vi...
We’ve already been conditioned that Superman can die…so…
It does seem like a dream sometimes… I remember being in grocery stores that had been picked over for almost everything edible and watching people fight over packs of toilet paper. Then there would be the people with really productive coughs that would send everyone fleeing the building.
Welcome to the club…
When I was in High School ROTC I never turned my .22 target rifle on my classmates. Something has changed in the past 40 years to increase these young men’s sense of isolation. The gun is just a mechanism for them to be seen. We’ve got to crack the pattern that makes them feel “unseen”.
The Trump regime is angling for their Reichstag Fire moment that they can exploit to declare martial law. The more troops they place in blue cities the more likely a bloody confrontation will occur. We need massive peaceful protests like the “No Kings” protest to let them know we will not go easily
Hopefully there is someone in the Pentagon that can intervene if he activates the football at 2 a.m. and tries to nuke Russia.
Guilt-free Nazi killin’
I was in ROTC in the 80’s and every day after lunch in High School I would check out a .22 rifle from the armory and shoot (unsupervised) for an hour. It never occurred to me to turn that rifle on my classmates. We need to understand what has changed in young people’s lives that make them need a gun
“If” the Dems return to power, they need to pass laws that treat guns like cars (another deadly weapon). Insurance required for each gun, cost dependent on the value/lethality of the gun. Taxes on ammunition to discourage stockpiling. Stiff criminal charges for unauthorized purchases.
I’m struck by the fact that the country can momentarily pause and mourn the loss of innocents when the perpetrator is a faceless, troubled young man; but when dozens of innocents are killed every day by a known entity that we provide the bullets for, there isn’t an equivalent sense of loss. Why?
Now Joe Scarborough has graduated from bending the knee to being a fellow traveler with his berating interview of Chicago’s Mayor.
When he says things like, “I can do anything I want. I’m the President.” we’re already in Dictator mode.
Mangle accepted.
Remember when the right wing talking heads were all aflutter about Obama invading Texas. Where are those people now? en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jade_He...
Totally agree. Every time I see workday in the URL I just sigh and know that I’m about to lose 10 minutes of life that I’m not getting back.

Now taking bets on when this military toy gets used on protesters… en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_...
Just emulating his hero Putin. Next he’ll take cuts from steel, oil companies, telco’s, and airlines.
Krasnov can no longer complain about the “Russia, Russia, Russia” collusion “hoax” because he just said the quiet part out loud.
At least the crap is symmetrical…
Zelensky doesn’t need to take any crap from Dear Leader and Couch F***er on Monday. When the Orange Cocksplat demands he give up the Donbas and relinquish his government he just need to stand up and say “We are done here.” and walk out.
Nightmare fuel!
These f***ing guys…
I expect the Taco King will now put pressure on Zelensky to give up the Donbas rather than apply “extreme consequences” to Russia.
This summit was a visual depiction of a Dunning-Kruger case. Trump literally doesn’t understand how out of his depth he is, while he carries on like he’s a master deal maker. Putin got everything he wanted, Trump got nothing.
America seems intent on committing seppuku; Dear Leader is just acting as the kaishakunin.
Sarah Palin would like a word…
Flash Gordon had some great lines: “How deep is your loyalty to your emperor?” “Without measure!” “We are pleased to hear it — fall on your sword!”
Just don’t ever watch her in the movie “Time Bomb” filmed behind my house in 1984.
Why has nobody in our lapdog media asked why Dear Leader is not deploying the National Guard to Memphis, TN, the most crime-ridden city in the U.S. (and yes, Red)?
He ran for President to avoid prison. His regime has committed so many illegal acts this term that they know they cannot surrender power or they will be sitting in hearings for years, so what do you think their plans are for the midterms?
Of all the big game animals, I think only the Cape Buffalo tips the scale toward the animal. They typically burst out of thick brush and you get one very quick shot or you are dead. FAFO.
Mess with the bull, you get the horns.
My equestrian daughter viewed the video and said, “She’s a mess.”
Ok Bibi, let’s see you take your family on a picnic in Gaza…
From the Jake Tapper publishing team…
He’s saying “The dog ate my homework.”
I think Mehdi should be allowed to punch the guest of his choice. Some people are irredeemable.
Sean Connery would like a word… m.youtube.com/shorts/hXcNM...
The guy with anger management issues hit on a point that seems to be a common theme with most extreme Magats…the belief that the country is irretrievably broken and therefore they have the absolute right to break laws to get what they want.
Tough to watch, but enlightening. Still amazed that people equate BLM protests with J6.
Imagine the perspective of the rest of the world as our government tries to protect a pedophile.
Zoom out a bit and consider that an entire political party is focusing the energy of the government on protecting a pedophile. The rest of the world must be gobsmacked.
That didn’t take long. Provide an inhumane facility and the guards immediately start acting inhuman.
Done!
Perhaps a General Strike would get Dear Leader’s attention…
Thou shall not watch porn…the missing commandment.
Goodbye CBS
If Dear Leader alienates his base, and Congressional Republicans have been cowed by fear of his base, might they rediscover their spines and start pushing back on his BS? Hope springs eternal…
Baby Nosferatu keeps crying “Insurrection” whenever he doesn’t get his way. Truly a pathetic human being.
Ba-bam!
He lost me at “We have a PERFECT administration”
And what rough beast, its hour come round at last, slouches toward Bethlehem to be born?
Perhaps he’ll ignore the “You use drugs, you die!” billboards in Malaysia…
America is the only country that went from barbarism to decadence without civilization in between. -Oscar Wilde
I’m afraid the death toll is going to be much higher…thoughts and prayers aren’t going to solve that.
Let’s break down her list: 1. The strikes on Iran were likely not effective in crippling their nuclear program so the ceasefire won’t hold. 2. NATO increased their spending knowing they can’t depend on the U.S. for their defense, so that’s a Pyrrhic victor. 3. SCOTUS is captured 4. GOP always cave.
Are you trying to imitate the NeXT Screen Saver?
My favorite error message was “Shut ‘er down Clancy, she’s a pumpin’ mud!”
Israel is the 14th wealthiest country in the world. So why do we send them $4B/year? Not one more $ for Israel.
For God’s sake…John McCain was born on a base in Panama…would they have deported him?
I had Walmart as a customer in 2001. One night, we worked late and ordered a pizza. We only at half of it. When the cleaning lady came through, she asked if she could have it and we said “Yes”. Walmart security appeared and fired her. I haven’t walked into a Walmart/Sams in 24 years.
When I watched that presser I tried to imagine those words coming out of Lloyd Austin or Robert Gates and it was inconceivable…
The arsonist charging in to put out the fire. How comforting.
Don’t let the bastards grind you down Natasha. You are doing important work.
Oh Andy…such a classy guy…spent that GoFundMe money yet for your child’s memorial?
Good luck selling this to your red hats while you’re kicking them off Medicaid, dropping their kids from SNAP, and cutting VA coverage.
Truly an unserious embarrassment for the United States…
We all know how well “Vladimir Stop!” worked…
Because that’s really inconvenient for the WH…
Little hint: Nobody gives a sh** about either one of you.
Let me get this straight: Dear Leader creates a cease fire out of whole cloth that neither party agrees to and then he gets mad when they don’t honor it?
Imagine Dwight Eisenhower saying, “I made the D-Day invasion decision based on TV ratings…”
Seriously love AOC.
Not regretting canceling my subscription to the Grey Lady.
@betty416.bsky.social has a point. The freaking world is burning down and the BlueSky feed is jammed with birds, flowers, vinyl records, legacy video games and sunrise/sunset pictures taken with a phone… Cowboy up!
He knows if he loses control of the House/Senate he’s going to be covered up in investigations…so all the National Guard deployments are just laying the groundwork.
Is this a transcript or just an attempt to sound like him? Because I feel like the reality is so much worse.
FFS…the country is going to hell and my BlueSky feed is full of birds and 8-bit video games…
Americans have fewer days off than most democratic countries…check out Iceland. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...
They intend to normalize this brownshirt behavior with masked ICE agents in every blue state to create a climate of fear so the midterms can be deferred/cancelled with no pushback.
