Parody. Some hate Trump. I don't. He's just a wanker. We, on the other hand, are COLONIZED by a wanker.

New York Governor Kathy Hochul has pledged to fight Donald Trump tooth and nail over the federalization of the New York City. But Leightyn Winkel-Carruthers, a Bushwick microdistiller who usually supports Democrats, says that such a confrontational approach leaves him deeply uneasy.
Like AOC, Zohran Mamdani has betrayed his progressive principles to suck up to the shitlib wine moms who define themselves by their hatred of Donald Trump, who I do not support. by Glenn Greenwald
Can Vance kill Trump with the same black magic he used on Pope Francis? We asked three MAHA moms at a Bob Evans in the north Cincinnati suburbs.
President Brezhnev is alive and well. by Katherine Leavitt
Our former friends are laughing at us in private; our empowered enemies are laughing at us in public. Who but Trump could have brought such jolly unity to the world? by Marc Thiessen
Trump’s mysterious disappearance from public raises new questions about Joe Biden’s advanced age
That’s a cold shot
Trying to explain to a conservative why RFK Jr is bad: "Imagine an educated black woman saying that Americans should exercise and eat vegetables."
Hold me back
I’m probably going to regret saying this but sometimes I wonder how much of elite dialogue is driven by rich people being upset by how dumb their kids are/what shitty parents they were.
Top four stories on the Atlantic right now. Tell me again how they have their finger on the pulse of regular Americans’ concerns
Thank you
Whether it’s Michelle Obama suggesting kids exercise instead of watching tv or RFK Jr. telling kids to drink raw milk instead of taking vaccines, both figures took a controversial approach to children’s health.
The only band that matters
Rudy Can’t Fail Card cheat Giuliani says he crashed while trying to save a young Janie Jones from a hateful lover’s rock. But it’s more like likely he had brew for breakfast instead of koka-kola when he was lost in the supermarket on the way to his brand new Cadillac. by Maureen Dowd
Someone please kill me right now.
Ukraine needs to name its military bases after Vladimir Putin and his generals. by Pete Hegseth
Times have been tough in this Ohio town since they closed the old power seizing factory. So when Donald Trump promised to un-constitutionally seize power for himself, they finally had something to cheer about. But now the woke mob wants to take all that away.
Curious about what's to come in RFK Jr's takeover of America's healthcare system? This sheet pan low-sodium unseasoned chicken and rice will have you thinking you're in the hospital's respiratory ward. Dislodge your breathing tube and nosh away!
Through its work in disease prevention, the CDC has saved millions of lives throughout the globe. Some of Trump's partisan critics question his plan to dismantle it.
Know what they call a seaweed snack in France?
Why did Hollywood studios decide not to make Weekend at Bernie's III? Because they became too woke.
The United States killed American Indians and drove them from their homes in order to steal their land. Could it work in Gaza?
Don't call it a "trail of tears." Donald Trump's controversial plan to relocate Gazans raises eyebrows in some circles.
Make it stop
In this Ohio diner, Weekend at Bernie's means when you crash at your socialist son's frat house the night before the big Michigan game. But they do know this: reports of Donald Trump's death are greatly exaggerated.
Good use of scare quotes tbh
There is no explicit prohibition against the President cancelling elections, so it's hard to see why liberals think they are entitled to elections in 2026 and 2028. by Jonathan Turley
Trump and RFK Jr. are betting that suburban moms care more about nonsense they read in Goop than about scientifically certified treatments for their children.
Oh my God, this was perfect. www.politico.com/news/2024/11...
Whether it’s Republican Donald Trump defunding NIH or Democrat Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. gutting the CDC, both parties are to blame for the demise of America’s scientific institutions.
In this Indiana diner, everyone has three questions: How’s the breaded tenderloin? Is the quarry hiring? And when Trump and RFK are talking about all these medical cuts… they don’t mean insulin and oxy, right?
"By hitting an American-run factory and European diplomatic offices in Ukraine, Russia appeared to signal that it would resist Western efforts to make peace, analysts said." www.nytimes.com/2025/08/31/w...
Trump Moves to End Birthright Citizenship; Opponents Cry Foul, Allies Say He’s Just Practicing ‘Extreme Vetting’ on Newborns
This “explicit” is a weird editorial choice. The constitution gives the president no power over this at all. It’s not ambiguous.
Is the Micah Parsons trade Biden's Katrina?
How many of the liberals complaining about the National Guard occupying American cities even know what the M in M17 stands for
Donald Trump’s rumored death raises new questions about Joe Biden’s health
"How Dems Come Back: Be Real; FIGHT #DonaldTrump & His MAGA Mobsters!" I debate w @jonathanlarsen.bsky.social how Dems can win on policy/politically based on my 1st piece in a series of 4 on this called, simply, "Be Sherrod Brown" Please check out & Share! www.blueamp.co/p/cliff-v-jo...
Since Gabbard has fired the CIA’s area experts, Trump’s morning briefing just praises his genius. But perhaps a happier Trump is just what a sad world needs?
In this Indiana diner, everyone has three questions: How’s the breaded tenderloin? Is the quarry hiring? And when Trump and RFK are talking about all these medical cuts… they don’t mean insulin and oxy, right?
Analysis | Critics see risks in Hitler's invasion of Russia.
In this Ohio diner, cancer research is what astrologers do for people born in late June and July. But they do know this: President Trump's landslide 49% of the vote gives him a clear mandate to defund America's scientists.
When Trump puts me in the camps, I expect the guards will be a little bit nicer to me when they find out that I signed the Harper’s letter
Opinion | Americans don’t need to go shooting things into their arms to be healthy by RFK Jr.
RFK Jr. says you shouldn’t get a Covid vaccine. All doctors and research results say you should. For busy Americans, it can be hard to know who to trust.
Opinion | AI is not as smart as toddlers yet. What if we got rid of child labor laws and had toddlers and AI work hand in hand?
Some critics say that America's rapid decent into fascism is unfortunate.
Why are so-called progressives up in arms about RFK. Jr., who I do not support, removing the head of the CDC yet said nothing when shitlib Phil Griffin removed me from the regular rotation on M$DNC? by Glenn Greenwald
A CDC Highway to Hell Team Trump is more Dred Scott than Bon Scott, and now RFK Jr. says you can't have a Covid vaccine if you're young (and I don't mean Angus). Congressional Republicans could stop this, but they're thunderstruck. Safe to say Mike Johnson is no Brian Johnson. by Maureen Dowd
Opinion | I’m not saying liberals elected Trump, but I’m not saying they didn’t.
The United States of Trump wants you to forget all about America.
The CDC has learned its lesson. by Susan Collins
Hitler targets ethnic and religious minorities. Critics see big risks.
Schumer, Jeffries propose strongly-worded letter to counter RFK Jr.'s purge at the CDC.
You're not going to believe this but Susan Collins is "extremely alarmed"
Whether it's Barack Obama asking for dijon mustard or RFK Jr. asking for a vaccine ban that will kill hundreds of thousands of Americans, there have been unusual requests on both sides of the aisle.
NEW: RFK Jr's purge of CDC leadership isn't shaking Democratic Gov Jared Polis' enthusiastic support of Kennedy to lead America's health policy. Today, Polis praised his collaboration with Kennedy, saying "We hope to work on making America healthier." #copolitics
I spent the last 15 years repeating right wing propaganda. But I didn’t actually vote for Trump, so you can’t blame me for the destruction of my country
I think you’re a good guy and it makes me genuinely sad that you’re stuck working for Greg Lukianoff
Infectious disease diseases, which I do not support, are poised to kill millions of Americans, who I also do not support, now that Robert F Kennedy, who I do not support, has banned all vaccines, which I also do not support. by Glenn Greenwald
Our country has descended into fascism. Some critics think that that’s unfortunate.
Critics see big risks
It's rich to see all the shitlibs attacking ketamine-addicted billionaires, who I do not support, after decades of criticizing the war on drugs, which I also do not support. by Glennd Of The World As We Know It
Ketamine is killing our billionaires. Why don’t liberals care?
When Donald Trump drags me and my family into the gas chamber, at least I’ll be able to say that I was always non-partisan and gave him the benefit of the doubt.
In this Ohio diner, JD still means Zach Braff. But they do know this: it will take one hell of a Kickstarter to make VP Vance’s 2028 movie a box office success.
You do not under any circumstances have to hand it to him, but Chris Christie tried to some extent. He's literally the only one.
Anyone who assaults a police officer in DC will be charged with a felony. Especially if they do so during our forthcoming military funeral for Ashli Babbitt. by Jeanine Pirro
Trump has ordered his government to hang large scowling banners of his face from buildings in newly militarized Washington, recalling tyrants like Hitler, Mussolini, and Kim. Some critics have expressed their displeasure.
(5/X) I understand that a lot of crime is economic and also that there are well-meaning people who do things they shouldn't because they have anger or emotional problems. But in certain arenas at least, the reason people do bad things is that they are bad people.
(4/X) This is a lesson that I've learned from dealing with narcissistic sociopath co-worker. We don't have a him problem, we have a shitty administrator problem. And the only thing that could fix this problem would be to make the shitty administrators believe they will face real consequences.
(3/X) like what he is doing or they think there is nothing in it for them to stop him. This is why there will have to be real consequences for the powerful people who backed Trump when all this is over.
(2/X) The country doesn't have a Trump problem. It has a shitty Republicans-and-elites problem. Trump could be stopped at any time by the Republican party. I suspect he could also be stopped by big business. They're not stopping him because they're assholes. They either...
(1/X) Sometimes people ask "why does this supposedly reasonable Republican back Trump or why does this centrist spend all of this time attacking the left at a time when the right is destroying the country?" The answer is simple: it's because they're assholes.
Critics raise concerns over Trump’s unconventional approach to the law
A Democrat has flipped a state senate seat in Iowa. Here's why that's bad news for Democrats.
Gone With the Wind Donald Trump is the sexiest Confederate bad boy since Rhett Butler, but now he wants to go General Sherman on the wind industry so he can prop up the lost cause of coal. It's going to spike our energy bills, but frankly, my dears, he won't give a damn. by Maureen Dowd
How it started. How it's going.
The median German citizen was not killed or imprisoned during the Third Reich, so it’s hard to see how anti-Nazism is a winning message for the left.
lol
We wanted to know if Trump's attempts to bully the Fed could unintentionally cause mortgages to become more expensive. So we talked to a podcaster who'd spent the past 6 hours trying to get Grok to say the N-word.
How did America lose its democracy? Two ways. Gradually, then suddenly.
The rise of a fascist leader in Germany led to genocide and a disastrous war that killed millions of Germans, but only 25 years later, Germany had regained its standing as a prosperous industrial power. Could the same thing happen here?
No, they won’t
Opinion | Why Travis and Taylor should have Liz Cheney officiate their wedding. by Bret Stephens
Played that too
My wife grew up in Aptos. I love Santa Cruz mountain syrah.
The wines were good but not great.
I loved it. Great space for tasting, great yacht rock playlist.
They played the most amazing yacht rock list.
A tasting room in deep blue Soquel, CA might seem like a strange place to meet Trump supporters. But over the smooth sounds of solo Donald Fagan, you can hear whispers that DEI is the reason the reserve pinot is $45.
Two children were killed and seventeen people were injured in a shooting at Annunciation Catholic School. A Cracker Barrel logo change received far more scrutiny and attention than any fight against the epidemic of gun violence in this country. Our priorities remain idiotic.
Opinion | To win in 2028, Democrats should admit that it is impossible to do anything good.
Analysis | During his second term, Trump has shown a desire to defy legal norms
This one from Charlotte Allen of National Review (also from 2012) may never be topped.
An oldie but a goodie from Megan McArdle www.thedailybeast.com/theres-littl...
President Trump is hosting a meeting to discuss delivering aid to Gaza. Don’t look now, but he could be the first person to win two Nobel Peace Prizes in the same year. by Marc Thiessen
If I admit that Kilmar Abrego Garcia has been mistreated by the Trump administration, will liberals admit that the Cracker Barrel guy has been mistreated by the Cracker Barrel administration?
I hate doing the Skeets about the school shootings, but I feel like we all have an obligation not to ignore school shootings.
