Anyone who's paid minimal attention knows that Trump will use this plan to punish his perceived enemies. Deny care to people based on his personal "criteria" and promote some version of premium coverage that will allow the connected to skip to the head of the line.
Trump was disappointed with the Army’s performance at his big, beautiful, birthday parade. So now it’s the Navy’s turn. This continues his rich tradition of pitting Americans against each other. If they floated a carrier down Pennsylvania Avenue it would not be enough.
Always. “You kids be good and stay out of the trash! I’ll be right back.”
Minor surgery is what happens to other people.
We’re well acquainted with the President’s lack of understanding in matters relating to his job. That the Republican Party is aware of this deficiency and DOES NOT CARE about their responsibility to provide the necessary remedy makes us long for the gallows.
You probably don't need advice from a musician who suffers from the exact same malady but I just got some excellent advice from a stranger on Reddit who said it's important to practice finishing a work. So now all my unfinished pieces have a dozen alternate endings. You're welcome.
God: So you're concerned about where you'll be spending eternity... Trump: Is it true the streets are paved with gold? God: It's more about confession for your sins. Trump: About that - I was hoping to make a deal. God: Satan is the one who makes deals. Trump: Can he get me the penthouse? God: No.
All of the drama builds in the hush of the crowd. I think it was Miles Davis That said, "It's not the notes you play, it's the notes you don't play.”
A likely story. This sort of thing doesn’t just happen spontaneously.
“Like a dry magnet….”
Reality will not be ignored. The truth will not be intimidated. And no matter which way you choose to run, time does not slow down.
Hmmm. I suspect this has been going on for some time.
You know it’s authentic because the tracks were downloaded from Napster and then recorded on cassette before being re-digitized and converted to iTunes. The low bitrate crunchiness masks the tape hiss while still allowing the original greasiness to permeate. And not in a good way.
Mine ramps up from normal to high performance whenever the dog gets close. The dog has not caught on yet.
Thanks for sharing. Don't know how I missed this three years ago.
Trump going out of his way to say he knew nothing about the FBI’s visit to Bolton confirms it was done on his request. And while I would normally applaud this turn of events my concern is how easily Trump turns on the people he chose to surround himself with for the last several decades. The best?
I’m just gonna guess that it’s because they are associated with White Supremacists, Proud Boys, Rightwing Terrorists, Inc. outstanding warrants, etc. Maybe they just have to wear the masks until they prove their loyalty to the cartel.
“…Neither Trump nor Gabbard can be trusted with intelligence…” I guess you could say God did his part.
The Federal Government is going to determine who has moral standing to exist in this country. Render unto Caesar…
Just wandered into your artwork and I'm immediately a fan. Nightscapes and rain. Looking forward to a leisurely stroll. Also, "The Night Feeling" reminds me of the Ziggy Stardust album cover.
The gold is cringe inducing but the hardcore adherence to symetry is borderline psychotic.
He JD. Who is Trump imitating? I know it’s right on the tip of your tongue. Also, you really want to suggest that he talks to people honestly? Cute.
Santana lit up parts of my 13 years old brain that still illuminate my path. Also when they appeared at Woodstock in front of half a million people they were approximately 20 years old.
On the daily.
I’m starting to think the compromising video that Putin has on Trump is just recent footage of him sleeping soundly in his own bed. In the Whitehouse.
They’re probably very expensive but I’m sure that there is a “substantial discount” for world leaders…if you know what I mean.
James Comer is the prototype for MAGA. He’s a total bootlicker and dumber than a bag of hammers.
What if we spice it up a bit. What if we google “Epstein List Subpoena Alex Acosta” ?
41. Alex Acosta
28. Impulse control 29. Interior design 30. History 31. Head Start 32. AI 33. Epstein flight logs 34. NPR 35. Corruption 36. Jerome Powell 37. Epstein client list 38. Morality 39. Mountains of evidence linking him to child trafficking 40. Jefferey Epstein…
13. Rosie O’Donnell 14. Everyone who worked in his first administration 15. Foreign Aid 16. Jefferey Epstein 17. Higher Education 18. The Epstein files 19. Ghislaine Maxwell 20. Medicaid 21. Low water pressure 22. Criticism 23. Math 24. Big Cities 25. Honesty 26. Accuracy 27. Sexual assault…
Things that Trump currently has a problem with: 1. Freedom of Speech 2. Democracy 3. The Arts 4. Immigration policy 5. Fiscal policy 6. The Weather 7. Late Night Comics 8. The Constitution 9. Plastic straws 10. Renewable Energy 11. The Courts 12. Taylor Swift….
Poll Number Emergency. Very common during coup season. I expect we’ll see a lot more PNEs as those numbers drop.
Hey, here’s an idea. What if we made the Epstein list the most Googled thing of the week just to fuck up their narrative a bit?
Cool. Will they all be wearing masks and free to do “whatever the hell they want” to anyone for any reason at anytime? This sounds just like what MAGA has been predicting the left would do since Nixon.
The president said “emergency” three times in one sentence. The only logical conclusion is that there is definitely NOT an emergency. So what could it be? I’m thinking it’s more of a personal crisis. “Don’t look at me being there, look at me being over here. I don’t look so guilty over here.”
That American Democracy could be undone by the naive assumption that people would never be fooled by the sort of dime store propaganda that made News Of The World and National Enquirer famous. And we’re uncivil if we mock the people who subscribe to that ridiculous bullshit.
Warren Zevon was so good at what he did that he could make people cry without them even knowing what the song was about. Tenderness On the Block. Accidentally Like A Martyr. Mutineer. Songs that reached a place you never knew existed.
Pizza with a plastic fork.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation called in to sort a state issue...in Texas. It's almost as if the whole "states rights" argument that has been trotted out for the last hundred and fifty years was only for the sake of convenience.
When the stupidity initially launched in April my first move was one nice bottle of authentic Mexican tequila and one nice bottle of authentic Canadian whiskey. I don't drink much anymore but I felt much better for showing my support.
Happy Birthday big guy! Warren Zevon once said, "Enjoy every sandwich." Even if they're not "technically" yours.
If I might just pile on here, I'm developing a permanent cringe from ten years of this whiner talking about how unfairly he's been treated. It's very true. No matter how many times the deck has been stacked in his favor he remains a massive fuck up slowly running out of people and events to blame.
Big burly men came to me, tears in their eyes saying, “Sir, sir, we believe you can fly. We believe you can touch the sky. We think about it night and day….”
What absolute moron would be thinking we need nuclear power on the moon? Let me guess…
Maybe if Elon would remove his hand from the puppet's ass his little fascist Pinocchio might be able to have an original thought. I know that's not how AI works but it sounded good on paper.
…a new jumbo jet, a gigantic golden ballroom, his name and likeness superimposed on what remains of the country we love. The enormous black hole, where most people have a soul, will never be filled. And no light can ever escape.
Trump wants the Nobel because Obama has one. His entire approach to diplomacy is based on his getting recognition. He does not care how or why conflict is resolved as long as he gets credit. Sadly, he will almost immediately turn his attention to the next shiny thing he can acquire…
Reading up on nuclear annihilation and I’m starting to think Trump has figured out how to make the Epstein issue go away.
Approximately everyone I know.
This is the perfect place for the wealthy donor class to play dress up. The American public will never see the inside unless Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous gets a reboot. Just another reminder that the current administration cares fuck all about the citizens it "serves."
If we can’t have Medicare fraud at least let us have insider trading. It’s hard to get by with only these small mountains of special interest dollars.
I’ll admit I was kind of nervous when I got a massage from a middle aged professional masseuse at her studio in an office building. But sometimes lower back pain will make you do crazy things. $45 was a bargain and she also showed me a few stretches that I could do at home.
The cadence of his delivery is straight from a Sunday afternoon broadcast of Southern Baptist sermon. The reference to crucifixion is just the cherry on top.
Chris Cuomo destroyed what credibility he had when he resurrected the corpse of Bill O'Reilly. Speaking of sex creeps...
My best friend has a private island. But I’ve never been there because…we were only friends for ten or fifteen years. Our other friends have been there and they say it’s pretty nice but they don’t really appreciate real estate like I do. Jeff’s a terrific guy. A lot of fun to be with. So they say.
All of them, Katie.
So it would appear that Congress is taking a break so that Donald and the DOJ can squeeze out any discrepancies between their accounts and Ghislaine’s new talking points. Is this some of that old school collusion that was so popular a few years back?
Trump finally admits he doesn’t know right from wrong. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...
The guy currently in the Oval Office has no ability to laugh at himself. Thankfully the rest of the civilized world is ready to step up and fill that void.
Pardon my French, but it sounds like a bunch of pussies who want to rule because they lack the balls to lead.
Great. Let’s bring back glass bottles. Said the guy who’s never walked his dog on public streets. Oh well. Cane sugar. At least we’re going to get serious about obesity.
Is this what’s known as the “Everyone-has-their-fingers-in-the-pie Effect” that permeates our current Healthcare/Insurance/Pharma monopoly? The same thing that means an increase in the cost of a bandaid equals an increase in the cost of a CT scan? Those yachts won’t buy themselves.
Must be a hoax. They have a flow chart. You can’t argue with a flow chart.
Okay I’ll say it. That’s got to be a cat burglar.
Let me guess. The money goes to the Trump Presidential Library Fund. For books.
I’m only going to say this once. It’s the moon.
Oxford Dictionary: Hoax - a humorous or malicious deception Trump: Hoax - a massive fuck up that I do not wish to talk about
You can't go in a thrift store without tripping over a pile of discarded tripods. Meanwhile YouTube and TikTok host videos that would trigger a seizure in the legally blind. And we're now able to watch them on giant screens in 8K.
First it was a copy of the birth certificate. Then they wanted the actual document. Then they wanted the long form. Then Trump sent a "team of investigators to Hawaii" and "you won't believe what they found" and "no one's seen anything like it." Two weeks, he said. Fourteen years ago.
Calling it a hoax is the real hoax. It's hard to explain without charts and diagrams.
I gave up on CBS about the time they rolled out the 14th CSI spinoff.
I wouldn't stay up for that but maybe someone will put it on YouTube. With Yakety Sax playing in the background.
My neighbors get really cranky everytime I threaten to kick their door in.
Diet and exercise. But that ain't happenin'.
Trump's futile attempt to gaslight the entire world by labeling the rapidly unfolding Epstein shit show that largely blew up in his face because he's pathalogically unable to stop talking about himself a hoax? A HOAX?! The only hoax is your sad little plan to make it go away by never shutting up.
Trump couldn’t kill Obamacare so the goal is enshitification. He’s like a virus that mutates constantly in a furious attempt to kill the host. Congress has a possible cure but the GOP will deny coverage.
Tide goes in....tide goes out. No one know why. According to Bill O'Reilly.
Church lady down the block waits for me to walk the dog so she can share the word of god with us. I keep changing the subject to the weather and how hot and humid it is. She says the lord has control of the weather. I said I know I’m going to hell, but why does it have to be so hot now?? Amen?
Yes. Trump’s priorities are pretty evident. In everything he does.
If only there was a way to get a significant number of people furiously tweeting that JD is totally innocent. Now that I think about it, a guy with no friends, amped up on Adderall, convinced that he’s being targeted, probably doesn’t even need a push. Everyone just act normal.
What kind of FUCKING MORON would put someone like this in charge of the monies? Anyone? Tillerson? Anyone?
This should do wonders for late night viewership. Well at least I’ll be getting some extra sleep. I wonder if they’ll show reruns of NCIS - Moscow. Just kidding. Infomercials.
Obvsly
I’m not a medical professional but I’m going to guess that the blood is not getting where it needs to go in a timely manner. Which sounds bad. I’m not a religious person either but I imagine one might be mindful of one’s own mortality and how it might not be going in the right direction either.
of unbridled wealth, the not so cryptic message that “I have everything and you have nothing.” Fred Trump and Roy Cohn created a bottomless black hole that Donald Trump will never fill. It’s the perfect illustration. “For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and to lose his soul?”
I’m guessing Trump Tower is the center of this skyline of course, but my point is the damaged psyche is on display in his vehement denial of ever indulging an artistic flair. Art is for the weak. Even his concept of interior design is an assault on the senses, the abundant use of gold as a symbol…
Unpopular opinion: This sketch illustrates that buried under a mountain of narcissism there lies a kernel of humanity. Fred Trump and Roy Cohn crushed that tiny seed and planted the idea that success goes to the biggest asshole and anything resembling humanity must be pulled out by the root….
When you're 6'4" and 230 lbs. you think you'll live forever. But even immortality comes with a sell by date.
Donald Trump's good friend Ghislaine is doing hard time in prison because of a Democrat hoax? And there's nothing he can do about it?! Why that's exactly what he said about Kilmar Abrego Garcia. I'm starting to think that Trump has a fear of prisons.
"I smell dog people!!"
A story that features the mysterious demise of the main protagonist and the lengthy imprisonment of his trusted accomplice while the most heinous criminals involved still walk freely among us. We loves a good mystery.
A story fabricated entirely by the last two Presidents even though it is almost entirely documented by every news outlet in existence and featured in several bestsellers.
Why is everyone still talking about Epstein? The President cannot understand why people are fascinated by a story about rich, famous celebrities doing unspeakable sex crimes on a mysterious tropical island. Boring.
Currently having a moment of zen listening to NPR doing a segment on the budget cuts that will eliminate government funding for NPR and no one is yelling at anyone. No anger, denial, bargaining…. Is Public Radio suicidal? Or just depressed?
It takes a special kind of madness to lecture Coca Cola on the topic of sugar. Sugar is their business model. Also. The President drinks Diet Coke.
Sorry for your loss. She reminds me a bit of my Mom who's been gone almost twenty years now. I was late to learn she was a fan of the Beach Boys and Chuck Berry. The mix tape I made for her funeral was a banger. Took me way too long to learn that she really was on my side the whole time.
About as well as 15 year old me handled that bottle of Boones Farm strawberry wine. Sure, there was vomit in my shoes. But you can't prove it was mine.
