Sadly, when your boss is an insurrectionist, rapist felon, you don't need to have integrity or competence. Just blind loyalty will do just fine.
Trump‘s coffee tax means you pay more and more. 20.9% increase in the price of coffee over the last year.
I'm a little concerned about that .1 follower! Maybe this is in CAT years?
I guess J.D. Vance works for the FBI too? This and the Fact that the Speaker of the House went on TV from OUR House and lied to US about Felon trump is truly scary. Sadly, it would be just a normal day with trump.
WTF..??? 🤔 That's some Fox News Spin on Steroids.. 👍😂😱 You can't make this S*it Up..😂
Why bring a Pen to a Swordfight?
This is all part of the project 2025 plan. His leadership of the Jan.6th insurrection and then pardons for the convicted violent offenders left no doubt about the willingness, no Eagerness to use violence against Americans.
I'm afraid we are passed the sensible gun law stage. With a President that claims he can"shoot someone on 5th Avenue and not lose any votes", and Republican lawmakers doing everything they can arm everybody, and illegal troops in OUR streets, America is running out of options.
Oh come on, now. Have we now created a class of people and ideas that our nation mandates are above reproach? Is the idea of free speech dead? Are we creating a new class of MAGA saints and a new definition of political sacrilege?
The left overwhelmingly has condemned the killing of Kirk and offered condolences to his family in this terrible time. The right has declared “war” and demanded revenge before we even have a suspect in custody.
On Feb. 22nd, 2024, Kevin Roberts, President of the "heritage Foundation" said this on Steve Bannon's War Room. "This country is in the midst of a second American Revolution, that will be BLOODLESS if the left allows it to be". That is terrifying!
When Maga's fearless criminal leader claims he can commit murder and not lose any votes, and then leads an insurrection against OUR country, then pardons thousands of violent criminals and murderers to please his base, it kinda implies he and his base fully support violence!
Mike Johnson has been caught red handed LYING for trump just in the last few days.In the real world, he would have been fired already. What a disgusting little worm.
As the White House grapples with the release of Trump's lewd birthday card, more mentions of the president in Epstein’s 50th birthday book emerge. On one page, a man identified as “a longtime Mar-a-Lago member” appears to joke about Epstein selling a woman to Trump for $22,500. trib.al/b7hg2kQ
A truly sad statement about Texans (and Americans), that a candidate should keep quiet about opposing assault weapons, especially when his hometown has just gone through a horrific mass shooting.
This is a really good piece, in part because it's a really good example of how to let the reader into the conversations you have with the people you are writing about and how that shapes your thinking:
When the time is correct to do so, please thank him from all of us...
We need more Republicans that aren't in on the grift! And age/ term limits all around.
Legal weed!

CREEPY!
🚨 A FELON in the Oval Office. 💀 A PUPPY KILLER at DHS. 🚫 An ANTIVAX EX-ADDICT at HHS. ❌ An ILLITERATE running Education. 🥴 A DRUNK in charge of Defense. 🇷🇺🕵️ A RUSSIAN ASSET as DNI. ⚡💥 This isn’t politics. This is the COLLAPSE of governance in real time. 💥⚡
What does Trump have on Mike Johnson .....🤔
The FBI is nothing but another Catch and Kill operation for trump since at least 2015. For God sakes, Kash Patel was one of the insurrectionists inside the Pentagon blocking calls for help! Enrique Tarrio also was an FBI informant. Felix Sater? Maria Butina? MATT GAETZ ? Gimeee break!
The percentage of Americans who "strongly disapprove" of the job Trump is doing as POTUS is 2x as large as the % who "strongly approve" This is a pretty bearish signal for the GOP in this year's off-yr elections. & this is why he's trying to rebrand the OBBB www.gelliottmorris.com/p/trumps-str...
No ,not at all! He said "take them out"! Almost like completely "obliterate".
This is a really important point about Trump's polling numbers that you would not get from most coverage about him
BREAKING: The District of Columbia sues to stop President Trump's deployment of the National Guard in Washington.
I signed Rep. Massie's discharge petition to force a vote on releasing all the Epstein files. Only two more House Republicans need to join to ensure full disclosure. The choice for Republicans: justice for the sexual abuse survivors or protecting Trump from whatever these files contain about him.
The argument is: We're all meant to sacrifice a bit, so that tariffs can help rebuild American manufacturing. Let's ask American manufacturers whether they're helping.
America is now at 2023 levels of people saying the economy is “getting worse,” not quite hitting 2022. Only 8 months into Trump’s term..:
The dude in the back's like "bring back my shirt"!
Good Catch!
Why did Ruth Buzzi just pop into my head?
Nate Who?😉
Very interesting! I'd like to imagine that AI might be a good tool for vetting candidates for public office. Just ask simple yes or no questions like "were you born in Kenya" or "Are you a convicted felon" or "have you ever, or are you planning to lead an armed revolt against our country". Simple!
The parties must DIE! Vote Dean Phillips, Liz Cheney in '28.
this graph (from Gallup) strikes me as totally incompatible with a functioning democracy
Except for the Small handful that voted to impeach and remove him so many years ago, and liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger.
Bigfoot with a diaper!
priceless...... cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thu...
Huge news - appeals court rules that a majority of the President’s tariffs are illegal. The President is wreaking havoc on our economy, and he is breaking the law to do it. We must right this ship. We need sane trade policy again.
Here's my Friday post: - U.S. voters say that crime is a serious problem, esp. in big cities. - But they do not approve of Trump exerting federal control over local police departments. - Latest example of the president moving the policy thermostat too far. www.gelliottmorris.com/p/voters-say...

Someone please say GAETZGAETZGAETZ. Low hanging fruit, plenty of time on statute of limitations!
YES
Probably the most money will go to trump's kids to buy property in Trump Heights, his stolen property in Golan Heights!
I say not a dime until they are out of Gaza and Netanyahu is before the I.C.C.
Actually I swore an oath to uphold the Constitution of the United States with my hand on @bpl.boston.gov’s 1782 edition Aitken Bible—also known as the Bible of the Revolution.
California didn't start the redistricting fight. But we're going to win it.
Gavin Newsom responds to Fox's OBSESSION with him
I still can't believe all of her colleagues, who had the guts to leave the state and incur fines, signed the fattwa and left her there. There's got to be a bigger plan, right? Anybody?
Objection! Stevie Ray Vaughn
They say phones only make us miserable but I just got this news alert and laughed for a solid minute so who is to say
Can you imagine a US envoy handing a Nazi medal to the family of an American who died fighting for Hitler? Because this just happened: www.cnn.com/2025/08/20/p...
Not much I can't imagine coming out of this regime.
New LETS MAKE A DEAL show in New York! Behind door number one, A guy hits you with a Subway sandwich. Door number two, a gal gives you a bag of stale potato chips full of cash. Door three, Pam Bondi steals your passport!
No
That I don't know.
Still there?
Ever see the movie Southern Comfort? I sometimes work down there. Those boys don't fuck around. The irony of Louisiana sending troops to D.C. when New Orleans is crime ridden is rich.
Let's hope they stand in front when the shooting starts!
I smell Herring!
I am worried sick. I have two sons in D.C., one has already lost his job ( at ABC) and the other (at PBS) has to worry every day if he will have a job tomorrow. I wish I had an answer. I love the guy who threw his subway at the Nazis, but that's not going to slow them down much. What do you think?
And there's the catch22. If honest politicians can't or won't stand up to trump because they are in the minority, and all we can hope for is to vote the evildoers out, and we may not have elections because trump will declare martial law, then the courts will decide our fate. Not much comfort there.
Right now they have National Goons from 5 states in D.C. The sheeple are just rolling over. At the very least, this is a trial run for Martial Law.
What the hell is Judge Breyer doing? If he rules against trump, isn't this going to be appealed and passed around the courts for years?
You've brought a knife to a subway throwing fight!
Good morning. Here is my reply to Matt Yglesias' "reply" to my article on moderates. This is a comprehensive accounting of my and other evidence, with some clarifications of findings and my position. I hope you will read and share. www.gelliottmorris.com/p/data-over-...
F...ing IDIOT
NUTS
Is Charles Manson still alive ? He just killed a bunch of Hollywood types.
Probably the same reason Florida didn't put Matt Gaetz away for life.
Wasn't trump trying to pass a law the banned masks just last month? These Nazis need to be stopped now!
But he says he doesn't want to get into "details"! I say BRING IT
They know...that's issue
Looking at the schedule for today's meetings, I see no mention of the SBT ( Saudi Bonesaw Team).
My name is Jonathan Nez. I’m the former President of the Navajo Nation. I am running for Congress to defeat MAGA Republican Eli Crane, flip Arizona’s 2nd blue, and take back the house. Repost this, give me a follow, and let’s win this.
He's a cunning linguist!
LOCK HIM UP LOCK HIM UP! Oh, and trump too!
Congress is the reason we have trump! Nato, the U.N, The E.U and the I.C.C need to eliminate the new Axis of Evil, putin, trump, and netanyahu. It looks like tomorrow is going to be pivotal .
The only question was did he have time to blow putin in the beast
The Full Diaper Two Step
Roll out the red carpet Clap like a circus seal I understand why he was clapping, not every day you get to see your hero, right Donnie ? And Putin Knows I dont know the creator of this cartoon is to give KUDOS, but those chicken legs are perfect !
The Right Way, The Wrong Way, The SUBWAY
Disgusting. Or maybe they were putting out Banana Peels?
I thought KAC was dead!
How long will the "honor among thieves" last?
A war criminal and a convicted fraud walked into a bar....
Great time for another earthquake!
Rumor has it.... Nato and the E.U. have secretly convinced Trump to join the International Criminal Court. Putin will be arrested and disappeared somewhere over the Arctic. Problem solved! Trump gets Crimea Towers and can install Paul Manafort as new President of Ukraine!
The moment he named his platform “Truth Social” we were headed this way.
