If you’re feeling uneasy, it’s probably because we now know we live in a country built on the blackmail of a dead pedophile who is Too Big to Fail, so Congress has to go home for a couple of months to figure out how talk about it without defenestrating the president and collapsing the economy.
Putin is big on autodefenestration. I wonder if Trump is too. 🧐.
Town halls are gonna bet lit
Wonder if Huizenga has the stones to have one and how bad he'd get harassed there.
Doubt it
He just announced he's not running for Senate. Doesn't have much to lose. Scholten might have one to pile on. Hope she gets harassed by pro-Palestine protestors.
I wouldn’t bet a penny on his being seen at a Meijer without a self-checkout lane.
Democracy baby
Yep. Well said.
The GOP turning a big dial that says 'Paedophlia' on it and constantly looking back at the audience for approval like a contestant on the price is right."
Of course, that should just read "Congress", not just the GOP.
I swear I saw this happen on The West Wing once
not “congress”, REPUBLICANS.
FCKING *THIS*
This, but Homer's riding the Lolita Express.
Any post that uses defenestration gets a heart 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
And I thought it was just that I didn’t sleep well last night
Wait...defenestration is on the table?
Russian style oligarchy problems requires Russian oligarchy style solutions!
it might be the only way trump leaves the white house alive
For the time it takes velocity, height and gravity to solve the equation.
No, defenestration is out the window.
👏👏👏
It's that, or the fourth burrito I had for lunch.
But other than that it's business as usual so get to work, peasants.
Trump wouldn’t be the first cult leader to sexually abuse underage girls and get their followers to drink poison.
Can we please accelerate the second step? It could free up some valuable real estate
I'm thinking more of the car dealerships
Pretty sure the opportunity to sexually abuse is one of the top three reasons people start cults.
A conundrum.
“ Beulah , bring me another mint Julip “ Overheard at GOP golf clubs nationally this week
Always was.
It just seems exactly like the time a family has to confront that Dad is a raging alcoholic and they either have to commit him to detox or keep walking on eggshells waiting for the other she to drop.
The echoes of 1789 France are screaming through the fabric of our present reality.
Something something… Rhymes with saltine
Anong other things…. Many… many other things.
Oh you think it's a bad thing that the US has a sex crimes industrial complex? You DON'T like that the US invented the cotton gin of rape?
Tbf collapsing the economy is now baked in. They are going back home to figure out how to talk about it without absolutely getting destroyed in the midterms given that it was looking like a D+19 race even before they passed a shit bill and had to deal with this.
Columbia University…

I really wish some of their families (esp. their less wealthy relations) would hold these f*ckers to task at the awkward BBQs they're sure to attend. #familypressure #socialpressure
Wait, were living in a country being destroyed by a live pedophile…
Obligatory "that's been the case since a long time ago" comment
Unbelievable 🤦♀️. So embarrassing!🤬
I have a theory the stock market is rising because the more boxed in trump is, the less crazy economic things he’s going to try But more crazy domestic things are coming
So, this is where my joy went. Makes sense. I might be more engaged lately if I thought deep down that this would certainly take him down, somehow, but I'm far from convinced.
“Hillary is on drugs”is their latest. Problem solved on messaging!!
This is so funny when half their team is visibly coked up half the time 😭
Bipartisan unease
... and it all could've been avoided had Democrats had the courage to push Joe Biden out in 2022 & held a primary to get a better candidate than an old white man with poor health & time to run a successful campaign [without Biden's lame campaign staff]. ALL OF THIS IS JOE BIDEN'S FAULT. ALL OF IT!

Has anyone ever heard of this thing called, quietly resigning in disgrace?
I hate living here. No one around me seems to care. I scream into a void. I’m trying to do everything I can to resist this bullshit, but it’s impossible when most don’t give a fuck because their comfort is more important. Grosses me out. We need mass resistance. We need a general strike. But, nope…
They're already doing worse than collapsing the economy: they're raising all prices, removing health and safety controls, selling personal data to social media barons and deleting civil rights. Defenestration is the least of his worries. #EpsteinFiles
Yeah, but we also live in a country with the latest South Park episode
That actually doesn’t bother me as much as the chill that went down my spine when I realized that Trump had stolen the election in 2016. First clue was Kellyanne Conway going manic three weeks out.
The “P” in GOP now stands for Pedofile.
The old Latin expression says that corruption of the best is the worst, but I think we’re all having to face the fact that corruption of the worst isn’t any better.
I feel seen ..... 😮💨
There's no evidence they're anti-defenestration, and that dead pedophile + all the "Russia, Russia, Russia" connections might be points that they're actually pro-defenestration
And they are 100% okay with destroying the economy as long as they can buy everyone else's stuff cheap afterwards
The economy will colapse during this congretional recess.
I would guess that Putin is wondering what to do with the Kompromat he has on Trump. If it's public, it loses value immediately. If Trump convinces MAGA that everything is AI, then Trump will say the same about the Russian compromising information / videos, and value goes to zero.
yes all of this
I sometimes disagree with your analysis but you're spot on here
I think this explains republicans doing whatever he wants better than most other theories
Keep truthful facts coming 👏🏿👏🏻👏🏾👏 #ResistanceForward🗽
REPUBLICANS in Congress voted to adjourn and go home. Dems want to keep talking about Trump-Epstein and the Epstein files.
That's it in a nutshell! 😳 "Brevity is the soul of wit." Shakespeare
which Democrats have run away to figure out how to talk about trump’s bff? you said “Congress”.
Congress = Republicans in Congress
Now life has thrown me more than I can handle, and I would never reach out if this weren’t urgent. It weighs heavily on my heart — but I still trust in our compassion and shared humanity. Your kindness could make all the difference. If you can help🙏💙 gofund.me/0af928df
All of that except the “collapse the economy” part. I can assure you markets would be relieved, if not jubilant, were he impeached
They may just settle on defenestration after considering all options.
Why are we ruling out defenestration again?
Surely such a system deserves collapse
Maybe he can get invited to go to Prague and they can go for the hat trick.
Jesus Christ
I definitely think a factor is we know if whatever he did comes out, no matter how horrible it is and how shocking the details, it won’t be enough. Because it is never enough. And that cycle wears us down.
GOP: It's not like we'd ever impeach him. We'd just prefer to not have to say pedophilia is ok on TV.
Official White House "it's actually Ephebophilia" post incoming
"Pedophilia is good, American fun" is gonna be the GOP talking point before the end of the year. We're already getting there. They'll be saying anyone who doesn't like it is woke. This'll also strengthen their bonds with the American Libertarian party.
I don’t think they’ll be able to get away with hiding the files forever, but I do worry they could get away with it if they’re able to socially engineer “abuse is fine actually” and THEN release the files once they’ve conditioned society to respond with a shrug.
I feel like I basically saw this before as a kid with how they defended child marriages and rape. And I'm pretty disgusted that we're basically back to the talking points of the early 2000s and I was 5.
I’ve hear that some really corrupt gurus sway giant populations through gaining access to the little boys. Is it rumors? Yes. This usa-ry rodeo is so much like a cult behavior, it’s been obvious for years. Deprogrammers wanted. 1-800-⛑️🙌🇺🇸
It’s not just that Rs will pardon 47 and co. as molesters, but do it while simultaneously falsely claiming all trans and LGBQA people are groomers and pedophiles and should be arrested, or worse. They want it both ways.
Look, it's anecdata, but still www.rawstory.com/trump-epstei...
I’ve seen Americans referred to as a housebroken people but I don’t think that term is strong enough. We’re a buckbroken people.
Jesus H Tapdancing Christ.
Leave him out of this; the sex workers he hung out with were of majority age as far as I know
Well... "legal age" might have been a wee different in the Roman Era Palestine...
... I can't even make a snide remark. This is horrifying on so many levels.
I simultaneously hate this person and feel so bad for them
Dear Maga, Why do you keep acting like any of us would protect a Democrat if they were on that list? We want everyone prosecuted, eh-ver-ee-wun.
PSYCHOSIS! Half the country experiencing mass psychosis. Fucking unreal.
Man I hope she didn't have kids.
the caller from Virginia is disattached from reality.
I suspect they're really hoping to just run out the clock on the list and let Trump die in office before it comes to light, and then Vance will say 'well we tried' and wash it aside so that the rest of the people on it are protected.
He's especially going to be that person who says "I was always against this"
They already openly support child marriage so it's not like there's much of a mask to rip off
Make the GOP say it. Dems should just focus on making them own it, but that would assume Dems have any interest in resisting or governing effectively, assuming that ever happens again.
The feeling that we should have reached rock bottom a long time ago. I will never understand the hold this guy has over people. He’s a cult leader.
This is precisely what is exhausting me more than anything
Spot on. Johnson weasels out of this by calling an early recess.
💥 💥 💥 💥 💥
The irony being that deposing the criminal president would actually help the economy that he's willfully/stupidly collapsing.
I think JD Vance would be worse, not a good poster, no charisma, cognitive abilities preserved, same cabinet with the same ideas, it would be Trump on steroids, and also not funny, at least Trump is funny
Wouldn't be the same cabinet for sure. Bondi et al are people that specifically helped Trump or influenced Trump. The actual reason Vance can't take the reigns is that he can't control the cult which they need to win any election going forward. Vance would be a threat for exactly 2 years.
He doesn't have the cult fanbase that Trump has. He might pass a few policies that are fucked if he takes over for Trump but I don't think he'll be popular enough to get re elected in 2028.
Vance has negative rizz. He couldn't talk a fly into landing on a pile of shit.
oh it's way too late for any helping, everyone's desperate to not be the one who makes a sudden movement that finally lets the corpse tip over
Trump is well on his way too collapsing the economy anyway, so that part of the equation is a wash in my book.
AFTER THEY DROWN VICTIMS INSIDE, TEXAS KILLING FIELDS.
Sounds suboptimal, I'm not going to lie
But I would love to throw him from a high rise window!!!
Good times 🥲
Have no fear, Murdoch is orchestrating a palace coup. The chaotic clown show will end soon enough. Then, we can move on to experiencing the real nightmare the oligarchs have in store for us. They’re tired of the old dipshit. Vance is an easier controlled puppet to execute the fascist takeover.
Murdoch does not give a shit about anything but money. The WSJ will report different news tomorrow and sell more papers. Murdoch is a shell - no amount of money, readers or viewers can ever fill the empty space that is his soul. The so called journalists who work for him should be ashamed.
Yeah the most unsettling part of this is that whatever Trump connection they’re trying to bury the Biden admin knew about it & decided that they’d rather lose the election than bring it up.
Defenestration: As a stained glass window restorer, let me just say that you can't throw someone out a stained glass window. Respect for aesthetics or artistry aside, there's steel bars and a lead net. Go ahead and try, though. Respect for the Presidency and rage at 47 aside, I need the work.
It might work if you did it at supersonic speed, the body would shatter into a fine mist and the window would act like a strainer.
They're totally unprepared for what happens when Trump dies. I know that Thiel and others have their ideas, but it seems like the GOP specifically have NO IDEA what they're gonna do if Trump kicks the bucket.
Granted, they're basically a generation now where their only known existence is with Trump at the helm. Ever since he defeated the last viable old school Republican (Jeb Bush) in the primaries before 2016... most of the GOP office holders are not echoes of the before before times.
It's a delicate moment.
But I'm not feeling uneasy. It's the least uneasy I've felt in awhile.
Yes I have been feeling uneasy since January 20, 2025
Shit if only somebody would follow the money. Abramson’s recent “Proof” connected to the dots in a way that I have not seen before. Russia, Israel, Saudi Arabia…
He's already collapsing the economy rather effectively and if the Stormy lady is correct...
Or they could choose option 1.
impeach this piece of ... cake. what else should happen at this point? hes gone crazy for a long time. just listen to him speaking about anything.
maybe congress going home until maxwell's 'cooperation' can be worked out
I’m wondering how many GOP see this as an exit ramp from the dumb fucking tariffs that will recreate 2008 x10?
There will be 25-50 more Trump shenanigans between now and then and Americans will forget and/or simply lose focus. Trump is an imbecile, but he’s an expert at keeping the firehose of bullshit flowing.
Trump rapes children and the Republicans are covering up his crimes. They are complicit. The Guard All Pedophiles party.
Trump is not the only sex criminal in the GOP though. You routinely see news of Republican politicians being discovered as rapists and/or pedophiles. True Christians y'all! 😂
G rifters O ligarchs & P edos
This should be EVERYWHERE.
What a great country you’ve built yourselvs there. Just splendit.
...and themselves. Which is what it is really about.
We live in a world run into the ground by the dumbest, worst kind of people
For those like me who had to look it up! And thanks for the enlightenment!
I actually didn’t know it had an informal definition
Oh the economy is fucked no matter what. That damage has been done.
Wait until he picks the new fed chair, that’s when the real long term damage begins.
79 yr old FLA man offers ODDI defense to cover his involvement in Epstein files. Film at 11 ODDI= other dude did it
Neruda: "I am nothing but the empty net which has gone on ahead of human eyes, dead in those darknesses, of fingers accustomed to the triangle, longitudes on the timid globe...I walked around as you do, investigating the endless star, and in my net, during the night, I woke up naked"
"Congress" 🙄
I vote for the defenestration
can the defenestration be a publicly broadcast event?
Will he even last that long, though?
Well when you put it like THAT it sounds fuckin’ stupid.
Uneasy is the bottom rung of my very tall personal totem pole these days.
Please defenestrate the president. That's all you need to do Congress, then everyone can go home. We're all begging you.
Everyone who was engaged with Epstein the rape or trafficking of under-aged girls The victims are due justice, criminally and civilly. Every person involved in the crime should be charged and held accountable in courts to provide justice for the victims
A good use of “defenestrate”
JFC

Agree totes except for the part about collapsing the economy. Would it? Would it?
They're waiting for him to die
Collapse the economy! Do it!
Huge "other than that, how was the play, Mrs. Lincoln?" vibes
That’s not what’s going to happen. Trump will offer to pardon Ghislaine Maxwell, if she lies to indict Obama. I’m calling it!
Let it all collapse - does anyone want to live in this dystopian depraved hellscape they’ve created at our expense?
Wouldn't impeaching and removing Trump be good for the economy? All the Tariffs are his own vanity project, and they're really economically damaging. I think there'd be a huge rebound if he was removed, so long as Vance (or whoever) reverted them.
That flag was always sus af. Where’s Waldo ahh flag. It’s like a clown designed it.
Honestly wouldnt the economy be better off?
They know…it’s Obama
The right wing noise machine pushed out more propaganda when Biden hugged his grandchildren…
There’s also the genocide
to be fair there probably hasn't been a day without genocide happening somewhere on the globe for the last 5000 years
This is not helping Tim
Reading it back, this sounds like a scold but it isn't. I'm just so bummed and tired, you know?
Their current move was to concoct a VERY obviously false flag accusation about Obama being treasonous. I don't agree with everything Obama did, but I read the "intelligence" that they dropped. It's 90% opinion and looks like something the Onion would probably publish TBH www.dni.gov/files/ODNI/d...
When all else fails, there's always war with China.
The PRC FAFO.
Yeah, nothing screams "functioning democracy" like taking summer recess while the entire country realizes it’s being held together with Epstein NDAs, duct tape, and vibes. Can’t wait for Congress to come back tan, rested, and still completely useless! 🏖️🇺🇸💀
We're going to invade Canada, aren't we?
Arguably, keeping the current leadership and advisors in charge, is a greater financial risk than the short period of time required to have them removed.
youtu.be/MvsdABjCedA?...
I think their personal fear of defenestration is also in there. (To be clear, they're cowards. Many signed up for power and responsibility and many balked at the first chance to really do anything against the fascist who is also taking their own power.)
OK i need help here. Did i HALLUCINATE that the few hundreds poor folks who were sent to offshore death prison were being RETURNED HOME ? Like, starting yesterday ? Is the despot pedaling back for some reason ?
Nah, country is build on genocide and slavery. Blackmail and pedophilia are just the latest additions. And really, no surprises here.
