Anyone with a working brain knows that if Trump is talking, he is lying. Unfortunately, based on the results of our last POTUS election, we have a lot of people who, if they have a working brain, aren't using it.
If I was the leader of ANY other country in the world, I would boycott both. I don't think anyone should come here until we get these freaks out of our government & every effing ICE agent is investigated. Humiliation is a really good weapon against Trump bc his ego is so fragile.
They were until they had to defend themselves against ICE agents attacking them. Btw, hello to a fellow Mitzi (mine has no E, lol).
Stephen Miller gives off serial killer vibes to me. Always has.
I've never liked Elon Musk. I've never thought that he was a genius. He's the walking personification of just about everything I despise. Watching him & Trump fight it out in public is hilarious, but in the end, they both suck.
Gorgeous sunset!
I agree. But it freaks some people out to hear it called Medicare. Why? No idea. Could we call it Universal healthcare instead? It's the same with the words progressive & socialism. It's ridiculous, but if you don't use those labels & just talk policy, they like the same things we do.
They will NEVER do either of those things.
I'm a retired acute care RN. I agree with all of this. 👆
You say astonishing, but it really isn't. I guess what's astonishing to me is that it's taken this long for this clown car of a Cabinet to do this.
I assume that that was a rhetorical question.
I 2nd that nomination.
I'm doing my best. I miss sleep, tho.
He looks like an amazing and affectionate cat. 😍
These people are so incompetent and unqualified that I'm honestly surprised that the Houthis weren't on the Signal group chat.
At a rally in Nevada in 2016, he told his worshippers that he "loved the uneducated". What he didn't say out loud was that's bc they're so easy to dupe. He 100% despises every single 1 of them & knows they're going to suffer. He WANTS them to. Yet, they're still thanking God for him. So, no.
Who can keep track? He & Musk are so deranged & erratic that I no longer know for sure. He has said that states are going to have to pay for their own natural disasters now. I wonder how Mitch McConnell feels about what he caused now? Why should we pay taxes to a gov't that does nothing 4 us?
There's no working with anyone in the GOP & any Dem who still thinks there is needs to go.
Trump's only redeeming qualities is that he's old and is showing obvious signs of dementia.
Well, I was only a small child in the 60's & 70's, & I agree that we need to organize, but the situation isn't exactly the same. I was 8 or 9 when I watched the Watergate Hearings. Things started taking a very dark turn after Nixon was pardoned. Then idiots elected a malignant narcissist....twice.
Yes, we are.
The earliest we can hope to impeach him is 2026. Articles of impeachment were already submitted and didn't make it past the House.
Good thing we don't live in Murica. We live in America and it's past time we remembered that. Some of us have never forgotten, but we have some people we need to remind of it.
It's over 54% of my neighbors where I live. It's thankfully NOT 54% of the population in my state tho. We haven't elected a Republican POTUS since 1984, just b4 Reagan's Alzheimer's really began to show. I, personally, have NEVER voted Republican and never will.
What are we going to do about it, Eric? Wring our hands and, like the old lady in Blazing Saddles, lament "Have you ever seen such cruelty?" How about we stop posting to the choir and do something like what Jasmine Crockett just suggested! Fight back in the public arena for christs sake. - Cal Dem
And join as many as you have time for.
Trump only remembers North Carolina during election season.
I don't think Trump has taken responsibility since he was born. Pretty sure when he needed a diaper change, he blamed one of his siblings for what was in his diaper. I just love having a batshit crazy malignant narcissist as POTUS. But then, I've detested him for 44 yrs-since I was 17.
Sounds like a very productive week doing what you were elected to do. Thank you and keep it up!! In fact, be more obnoxious about it. Bc we all would love to start being more obnoxious about it. In fact, I think we're going to after what they did to President Zelensky.
So, what you're saying is that we have nothing. Not that I thought there was a single sane person in our current administration to begin with.
My message to Felon47, JD Vance, and Marco Rubio: F all of you and Slava Ukraini. I will always stand with Ukraine🇺🇦
Anyone who isn't horrified by this doesn't deserve to continue calling themselves an American.
JD yelled like a jelly PAB you met w/Harris campaign in Oct.- hell yeah he did, she was the VP+they helped Ukraine🇺🇦 protect themselves from Russia🇷🇺(How many Russians🇷🇺did Trump lower sanctions+sneak into the U.S.🇺🇸+have ANCHOR BABIES They're at his properties- DT+gQp admin,appointees are Traitors to 🇺🇸
Let's find a way to do it for him. Our current administration does NOT represent us or the values we have had our entire lives. He is NOT my president. He isn't content to shit all over us & our Constitution. No, he has to bully & condemn everyone except the bigger bullies. FUCK TRUMP.
Well, considering how all but the last one have already happened, you're probably right.
It's long overdue
The American people don't even care what Lindsey Graham has to say. Why should the dignified and noble president and people of Ukraine give a crap?
The problem is that Trump thinks that HE personally should be thanked, NOT the United States. The effing egomaniac.
Per @chrisdjackson.bsky.social on another platform: “It took me 30 seconds to find at least ten postings from Zelensky directly thanking the United States for their support. There are many more. This is pure BS.”
President Zelensky doesn't owe Trump an apology OR a thank you. Trump hasn't done anything to HELP Ukraine. Biden did. Every American who voted for this POS owes Zelensky, the Ukrainian people, the rest of the world, an apology.
GOOD.
Understatement. His only redeeming quality is that he's old.
I appreciate a correct headline: Our President Is A Global Embarrassment
The difference between a REAL leader and a couple of weak, pathetic, losers POSING as leaders and pretending to be strong. I didn't vote for them and I'm STILL ashamed.
Yup.
Done.
Pass it on. #StandWithUkraine
Thank you for being the kind of politician that we want and need. Now if we can just elect more like you, Jamie Raskin, & Jasmine Crockett. I really wish Bernie was younger bc we need more like him as well.
Thank you. And thank you for speaking up against what's happening. I just wish the "incremental change" dinosaurs would have even half of your spine.
Ofc it is. That's not new. YOU need to stop acting like there's nothing Dems can do. Bc we all know you can. You're supposed to be a leader. Act like one. Stop complaining that people keep calling to tell you to act. It IS your job. Now go do it. We're going to keep calling you out when you don't.
Yay. We have a leader who's crazier than Kim Jong Un.
Well, if it's about having the biggest dick, Hegseth is SOL for sure as well. If BEING the biggest dick in the room is what he was going for, then he nailed it.
Diseases making a comeback due to anti-vaxism: 1. Measles 2. Mumps (I had it in 2nd grade-both sides-it sucked) 3. Rubella (aka German Measles) 4. Pertussis (Whooping cough) 5. RSV 6. Tuberculosis 7. Polio 8. Scarlet Fever (caused by Strep A) 9. Scurvy-take vitamin C or eat oranges people
Good for her
The amount of things that Trump has no idea about would fill an entire library. I don't like Mitch McConnell, but he did have polio as a child. His weird freeze moments are very likely related to that as part of his post-polio syndrome. Polio, even if you survive it, is the gift that keeps on giving
I'm sure somewhere else would be happy to have him. He, Jayar, & Brett are all that's still good there.
Not The Damage Report w/John Idarola. He still has Fran & others on his show & he's not a raving lunatic. Still very progressive. I would support him, but only if the $ goes JUST to him.
As a "birthing person", to quote you & a mom of 4. I don't know why that triggers you unless you are unable to have kids or don't want them. I'm sorry if it's the 1st, & the 2nd is your choice. Where is all this rage coming from? This much anger usually comes from a place of deep pain. I hope u heal
Emma didn't 'allow" people to call Ana transphobic. Ana IS transphobic. She went on a rant (shocker) about it & was so toxic about it that 1 of their contributors, who is transgender, quit.
She used to be pretty good. I think the TYT main show should stop pretending to be the "home of the left" bc she & Cenk seem to be on the same page. TDR is still on the right path. Poor John having to try to not make waves w/them.
John Idarola's show still is: The Damage Report. The main TYT show hasn't been for at least the past 4 years.
Btw, Fran was right about putting deportees into camps. I would respect Cenk if he would admit to being wrong about that. I don't care if other POTUSes have done it. I protested it then, too. It doesn't change what's happening now. But you've got the RW whataboutism down pat. And who's Paul?
I stopped watching the main show after U started attacking people & spent most of your time just ranting & freaking out when people disagreed w/U. I still watch John. I saw Fran's show w/Cenk. She didn't take him out of context or lie. He's nice to RWers & rude to old friends. I miss the old Ana.
Canadians AND Americans should boycott buying Teslas. There ARE other companies with EVs.
That better not be the only action they take.
Bc he doesn't do his own shopping. And he's really dumb.
I'm so sorry. I didn't vote for him-any of the 3 times. But, I'm still sorry that anyone else has to suffer bc Elon Musk bought the election for Trump & we have way too many ignorant people here that are lazy one issue voters. And they don't even understand that 1 issue accurately.
That's bc he's an idiot. We have a trade deficit with Canada. Meaning that we depend on what THEY supply us more than THEY depend on what WE supply THEM. Now WE Americans will get to pay the price (literally) for Trump's stupidity. Do what you gotta do, Canada. Some people have to learn the hard way
Don't worry. We Blue states understand & appreciate you & your country so much. We also appreciate our Mexican neighbors & the immigrants from all over the world. Do what you need to do. We knew we'd all suffer under this lunatic & we count on you to teach him & his cult a lesson. ❤️
Can't blame them. At least they know who is responsible for this s show. We're all going to feel it, but if we help look out for each other, we can get through it.
I think most of us know that the people who voted for Trump have to learn everything the hard way. Is it fair to the rest of us? No, but if it knocks some sense into them, then we'll do what we can for each other until we come out on the other side.
🤞 he will help the Democratic Party weed out the dinosaurs like James Carville & those who can't let go of how things used to be. Bc their way of doing things doesn't work.
Year? It feels like every single day so far has lasted a year.
They've either already sold their souls, are afraid of backlash from Trump or death threats from MAGA since Trump has freed his insurrectionists & we all know that they're violent & dumb, or they want to be re-elected & know they need to kiss Trump's behind to make that happen.
Mine too! It's always great to see him in action.
I like the way you think, now that my boys are all too old for the draft, lol. Not that they're MAGA or would EVER be MAGA. They have working brain cells.
I'm happy to say that he's my senator & I've always voted for him. ❤️
Better late than never. I think it was more magical for those of us who were kids with the 1st 3 SW movies came out & saw them in theaters bc Lucas created a new universe & captured out imaginations. Couldn't write a script for shit, but thankfully his wife fixed it.
She was a great role model. Both the character AND Carrie Fischer. Great sense of humor.
We all will, together.
I've always been a rebel. You can ask my little brother. If Mom & Dad were still alive, they'd tell you the same. I've been told that my "Mom look" is intimidating, 😂 & that I have an aura of "Don't eff with me." Scared off my evil MIL thankfully.
I've never been sorry that I voted for him.
Exactly
I'm an unaffiliated voter myself, but as an acute care RN, I've met a LOT of people belonging to both parties & I have to say that they're pretty evenly matched in most categories, including dimness. There's a bigger difference between those w/$ & those w/o $ than there is between regular people.
I'm so very glad that I'm no longer on Twitter AND I have no idea who Naomi Wolf is.
I'm from Oregon & a lot of us have been in similar situations to what's happening there now. I don't care who you are or what you do for a living, losing your home is devastating. If there is anything we can do that will help people who have lost everything, pls let us know.
I've been very impressed with the scooper planes from Canada. I think CA should buy a couple since they've made a big difference during this tragedy.
So glad to hear that you & your family are safe & your home was spared. Our hearts go out to everyone in the affected areas. We had a similar situation here a few years ago & our area is still recovering. If there is a way we can help, please post it here. Stay safe.
I love her so much! We need more just like her--smart & sassy with a sense of humor. I love Mondays when she goes on TDR w/John Idarola--1 of 3 remaining bright lights on the TYT network (John, Bret, & Jayar). Frantastic Mondays are a great way to start your week!
I know! Shocker. So unexpected.
@franifio.bsky.social did an amazing job at being the only adult in the room when she had Cenk on her show. I've watched him interview w/other people--both left & right wing--& he's way more polite & controlled w/every1 except those who have worked w/him. Not a good look, Cenk. You look like a jerk.
