Yay! Five-star review from www.instagram.com/bookedandbus...
Trump & his corrupt administration are PURPOSELY leaving the US wide open to the next outbreak, pandemic, natural disaster or terrorist attack. It's like they WANT a disaster to happen so they can suspend elections and declare martial law. All while they grift & get richer. They must answer for it.
kerryshatzer.substack.com/p/why-is-tru... This is an old Substack post of mine from before the election but it's still relevant today. I'm slowly working on a new one but this one has a lot of the same themes. Check it out!

My current favorite bit of right-wing Christian hypocrisy is Ken Paxton, a man whose wife is divorcing him for adultery, forcing Texas schools to unconstitutionally post "Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery." www.houstonchronicle.com/news/houston...
He’s wanted to declare martial law from day one. Bypass all checks and rule as a tyrant. Many have speculated how he’d do it. Now his gambit is clear. DC was a test. He’s using manufactured crime stats to send troops into blue states & cities. This is not a drill. Democracy is at defcon 1.
Colby at www.instagram.com/bookedandbus... gave my new LGBTQ+ puzzle book five stars and a great write-up! Please check it out! Visit diversionspuzzles.net for more info about the book and links to order. Makes a great gift for any queer person who likes puzzles! Even Kirkus Reviews says "Get It"!
www.nytimes.com/2025/08/21/u... This is insanity. Trump, his corrupt administration, Republicans & the conservatives on SCOTUS are PURPOSELY leaving us wide open to the next natural disaster, pandemic, financial crisis, terrorist or cyber attack. It's not even America First. It's pure corruption.
www.advocate.com/news/rainbow... Ron DeSantis and Sean Duffy erase this memorial crosswalk in the middle of the night like the utter pathetic cowards they are. What petty, small men they truly are. What petty, small people Trump, his entire corrupt administration & all of MAGA truly are.
Borrowed from @jefftiedrich.bsky.social
YES! Sue their fucking asses off!!!
Everything we're going thru now has been caused by three decades of Fox News. Their entire business model is to lie to their viewers. The 2020 election proved Fox viewers WANT & DEMAND to be lied to. Until they want to hear truth again (it's actually in their own best interests) nothing will change.

She's just one of Trump's #FascistBarbieSquad members. And Trump & his entire corrupt administration are completely untrustworthy. Anything they say should be assumed to be a lie first until fact-checked. They're incompetent but don't care what mistakes they make. Arrogance, ignorance, incompetence.
www.alternet.org/trump-s-wors... It's going to get a lot worse before things can get better. Republicans have already chosen Trump over democracy, and right-wing media viewers want & demand to be lied to by Fox News & their ilk. Until these change, I don't see things getting any better...

@jefftiedrich.bsky.social always makes the suffering of this, the stupidest timeline we're stuck in, just a little more bearable! www.jefftiedrich.com/p/preznit-fu...
Republicans are the kings of hypocrisy. Just ask them this: if a Democrat does the exact same thing that a Republican is doing, would they get mad? Of course they would. Repubs think rules, norms & ethics don't apply to them. But they sure throw a fit when Dems do anything like Repubs have done...
We have to make Trump accountable for nominating the absolute nutjob RFK Jr who is setting our country's medical field back a century at least. People will die because of the insane cuts RFK Jr is making, and Trump needs to be held accountable for every single one. Trump must pay the price for this.
weird how the guy born into obscene wealth, bailed out repeatedly, allowed to fail upwards forever until he fell ass-backwards into the presidency, and then was declared by the Supreme Court to be a Very Special Boy Who Can Crime Forever never stops whining about how everything is rigged against him
open.substack.com/pub/kerrysha... New Substack post describing a bit of the history of making my new book, Queer Pride Puzzles Volume One. Please check it out! Thanks!
Can we file a class action lawsuit against RFK Jr, Trump & his corrupt administration for gross negligence because of insane cuts like this? They're leaving us wide open and helpless for the next natural disaster and/or pandemic outbreak. We have to be able to stop this insanity somehow...

Jessica Tarlov is a national treasure for what she does. Though I shudder to think how many death threats she must get DAILY from Fox News's ignorant paranoid hate-filled MAGA base. Three decades of Fox News is why this country is so fucked up. Their viewers WANT and DEMAND to be lied to.

Whenever a Republican says Dems want "open borders" they're LYING. We need to stop letting Republicans, Fox News & Right-wing media set the agenda because it's nothing but propaganda & lies. They spent millions attacking trans people, one of the smallest minorities. All lies. #AllRepublicansDoIsLie
Trump forces the Smithsonian to take down an exhibit that includes his two impeachments. In George Orwell's 1984 the protagonist works for an agency that changes past newspaper articles to erase the truth & spread lies the regime wants the people to see & hear. We are already in a fascist state.

Letter from a weary MAGA “warrior” #MAGA #BoneSpurs
I don't think most of Trump's MAGA followers will drop him over the Epstein stuff because for them, this & Q-Anon was all about attacking Democrats & "owning the libs". They don't give a crap about trafficked & abused children. They just want another reason to hate Dems. 3 decades of Fox News...

I think reporters need to dig into the entire Miss Teen pageant that Trump ran. It was probably just a way for Trump and Epstein to find new "recruits". I think I heard there was a network of several teen pageants run by several other rich wealthy men that all knew each other. Reporters, get on it!

I'm so sick of Kristi Noem's TV ads basically jerking off Trump, thanking him while threatening everyone else. What a frivolous waste of taxpayer money just to stroke Trump's ego. Were these ads what she wasted her entire budget on? She's purposely running them on MSNBC just to "own the libs". 8647!

All the late-night hosts are liberal Democrats because conservative Republicans just aren't funny. They think being cruel is funny, like Greg Gutfeld & Jesse Watters. & they're jealous & they hate us for it. All the best social media comebacks are from the left. We like smart funny shows. They don't

Republicans aren't scared of Democrat voters. But they're terrified of their own voters. Why? Because they know ALL the violence and threats are coming from the RIGHT. ALL OF IT! Fox News constantly lies and tries to say the left is all Antifa and violent but we know better. So do Repub lawmakers.

I think Maxwell Frost said when he was touring Alligator Alcatraz, some people held there were screaming "I'm a US citizen!" It's already happening but we haven't heard about it yet. Trump & his corrupt administration are completely dishonest & untrustworthy. They all lie about everything.

Wow. Trump looks so awful. He looks like he presses his face into a bowl of shit every morning. Has no one there ever told him how to blend? He can afford to hire someone to do his makeup for him. It looks so stupid. It shows such a decline in his mental state to go out in public like that.
The entire Trump administration is utterly dishonest and untrustworthy, from Trump on down. His entire cabinet, every single one, cannot be trusted to ever tell the truth. They lie to judges, in Congressional hearings, to the press & even their own voters. They are all liars.
"Trump’s administration has worked to destroy the safety net, which makes all kinds of disasters — extreme weather, earthquakes, contagious disease, individual health events — much more likely to be much more deadly." Why have they done this? Seriously, why? What insane rationale is there for this?
They were missing key staff because of the unnecessary drastic cuts made by Trump, DOGE & Republicans. Just think of the cuts they've made to USAID, FEMA, NIH, CDC, NOAA, NWS & more. People are already dying needlessly because of their cuts & they need to be held accountable before more people die.

Ooof! Bad timing...
Speak Truth.....
This is just the beginning. With all the drastic cuts Trump, DOGE & the Republican party made to USAID, NIH, CDC, FEMA, NOAA, NWS, pretty much ANY government agency or program that saves lives & helps people, we're one hurricane or disease outbreak or financial crisis away from a deadly catastrophe.

#AllRepublicansDoIsLie For ages the Republican party used the lie of "voter fraud" to pass restrictive voting laws targeting minorities especially. Now their New Big Lie is "fraud, waste & abuse" in government programs & agencies to make massive cuts for tax cuts to the rich. All they do is lie.

It's interesting that the only time a Republican tells the truth is when they're not up for re-election. In a sane world a politician should be worried about losing an election when they're caught lying, not when they're caught telling the truth. #AllRepublicansDoIsLie
