Yes. When they said they were going to repeal the 20th century, yes, they meant the whole century. Vaccinations, public health, the Pure Food & Drug Act of 1906, all of it.

Florida already had a skyrocketing rate of non-medical exemptions for childhood vaccination, leading to MMR coverage in kindergartners well below recommended herd immunity levels. And now they won't even need exemptions.
I'm worried that this will be a "hold my beer" moment for states that don't want to be out-wingnutted - Texas, Oklahoma, Missouri, Louisiana, Ohio, etc. They might all do this soon.
Maybe not. He's such an egomaniac he thinks he'll win, even though the only polls that don't have him in third place have him in fourth.
Yeah, but all the border states are Republican.
What Cuomo doesn't understand is that Trump will declare NYC a mismanaged, crime-ridden hellhole no matter who wins the mayor's race. He'll deploy troops even if Cuomo wins.
Republicans, the party of the working class. www.aol.com/mcdonalds-ce...
So sick of these centrist impurity tests. Not everyone can meet your standards of being a huge piece of shit, sometimes you have to just grit your teeth and vote for someone good even if that goes against your principles
The CrossPolitic podcast is hosted by congregants of Christ Church—led by Christian Nationalist kingpin Doug Wilson. The podcast promotes Armored Republic, a Christian body armor company: “We create Tools of Liberty 2 Honor Christ by equipping Free Men to defend their God-given rights.” Sound on. 1/
Quote about vaccine mandates (measles, chickenpox, polio, etc.) from FL's surgeon general: “Every last one of them is wrong and drips with disdain and slavery,” Ladapo said. This fucker is even nuttier than RFK Jr.
Guess which network is ignoring the survivors? Fox isn’t news.
Florida will probably make it unlawful for a public or private school to mandate vaccines.
LOL. Blocked.
Soon America will be the only developed country in the world that routinely has large outbreaks of measles, polio, and other 100% preventable diseases. It will be like gun violence. No one else in the developed world will be able to understand why we tolerate it. flvoicenews.com/florida-gene...
Fine, but why couldn't they have been there quietly, in a show of support? (I'm asking even though I realize you'll defend Democrats no matter what I say.)
On the surface, this seems really bad. We know that the Epstein thing is enormously worrying to Trump. There is no excuse for not hammering on it. I could have excused the Dems' silence during the latest Congressional recess if only they had come out of the gate, today, with both barrels blazing.
Good for them, but why won't any Democrat other than Khanna talk about this?
This is insanity.
I guess only one Democrat was at the Epstein press conference today. Did David Fucking Shor persuade the rest of them that it's bad politics to advocate for women who were raped as children? Did Shor tell them that they should pivot to kitchen-table issues if asked to denounce child rape?
LOL. So on brand for him.
He's running. apnews.com/article/cory...
It's a Day Ending in "-Day," So James Carville Is Attacking Democrats Again (new post) nomoremister.blogspot.com/2025/09/its-...
boy I dunno, 77 is on the young side. and does she even have terminal cancer?
"One could make the argument we should have sided with Hitler," a guest told Tucker Carlson's podcast last month. Yair Rosenberg writes about the MAGA influencers who want to rehabilitate the Nazi leader—and what they hope to gain by doing so.
Democrats could have been championing the Epstein/Maxwell victims all through August. Instead, they're letting the party behind the cover-up seem like joint partners in the pursuit of justice. It's as if Democrats don't even want to look like the good guys.
I think he wants to be Vance's VP if Trump dies.
Eric Cantor was in House leadership in 2014 and he lost. AOC beat a top Pelosi lieutenant in 2018. It's a longshot, but it can happen.
The fact that this limp dick will be Speaker if Democrats win back the House could persuade hundreds of thousands of voters *not* to vote Democratic in 2026. Jeffries' very existence will be a drag on the Democrats next year.
Republicans are sick freaks.
Days after declaring that women are nothing but "a bunch of holes," Elijah Schaffer proudly announced that his Rift TV network now has its own credentialed White House correspondent.
Maybe Trump had COVID and they didn't want his base to know he was being treated with a conventional antiviral.
Team Fight Back vs Team Whatever The Fuck This Is.
Someone please primary this empty suit.
the democratic party's bias to normalcy is gonna kill us off. the gop is literally talking about a military junta and the democratic leader is operating like he can just cut a deal with republicans like its normal times.
But they'll all vote Republican for the rest of their lives.
I don't think Republican voters can ever acknowledge that Republican policies are failing. "We hate inflation!" (Prices rise under Trump.) "We hate inflation and we love Trump!" Trump won't be blamed. Vance won't be blamed. Democrats will be blamed.
Vance follows a coterie of online Nazis on X, has described Curtis Yarvin as a major intellectual influence, and openly attacks immigrants in blood and soil terms. The response of most of the political press? "Doesn't look like anything to me."
Exactly right. In his first term, Trump wouldn't even acknowledge a routine colonoscopy. www.politico.com/news/2021/10...
Occam's razor is that he simply had a cold or COVID and had to be resting for a few days but his strongman image can't allow for him to publicly admit that he's sick so they just did an unexplained absence.
100% chance.
I'd say chances are high that Trump's gonna run this playbook, or worse, for NYC's mayoral elections this year and the 2026 midterms in contested races around the country.
But they'll still vote Republican for the rest of their lives.
I'm surprised Keir Starmer hasn't nominated Trump for a Nobel.
This is an essential read. Trump is deporting dozens of Russian asylum seekers back to Russia, where they can expect prison and torture... and being sent to the front in Ukraine to die.
LLM companies are beta testing experimental products our children, and educators are facilitating it.
Maybe the stock market is dropping because Trump didn't die this weekend.
jesus man, tell me you have no idea who Claremont is or JD Vance's record as a postliberal
How J.D. Vance Will Hold On to Trump's Base If Trump Dies (new post) nomoremister.blogspot.com/2025/09/how-...
The Democratic establishment and the mainstream commentariat want this. Millions of non-elite liberals wish Republicans would just crawl off and die.
Oh yeah, I really trust this guy to put a chip in my brain.
Miller and the radical freaks from the Heritage Foundation have been running the country since January 20.
Platner: No one cares that you pretend to be remorseful as you sell out to lobbyists. Symbolic opposition does not reopen hospitals. Weak condemnations do not bring back Roe V Wade. Maine deserves better than Susan Collins.
Recalling Saxby Chambliss campaign ad that labled war amputee Max Cleland a terrorist sympathizer. The new DHS bill was going to gut civil service protections and Max was not having that. Republicans have been rotten to the core for decades.
Ditto.
"Kamala lost because Real Americans hate being asked to add alt-text!"
Harlan Crow's money gets results.
💯 “Dems care, and try, and for that are punished. GOP lies, hurts people, doesn't give a shit, and is rewarded.”
Miller was also running the country before that.
Think about it. "Dems were too zealous in trying to prevent the spread of the virus" is, in US politics, a greater disadvantage, a bigger problem, than "Republican lies got hundreds of thousands of Americans killed for no reason." Just a pathetic fucking country. Pathetic.
"Birth control makes women crazy" has been one of the main talking points in the manosphere and the tradwife movement for years now.
We should stage demonstrations against this and Democrats should introduce bills to block it.
I had a terrible relationship with someone who regularly snacked on salted peanuts and raisins and it might be my only positive memory of her.
Or "inflation."
OK who did this?💀😂
It is insane to me that the richest man in the world is using his global megaphone to call for millions of British people to be rounded up and deported (including my family) and somehow this isn’t even news.
Because the mainstream media has Stockholm syndrome and its comfort zone is being abused by Republicans.
leaving aside if Trump's dead or having any health problems this weekend, if, IF the on-line rumor mill was going even half as hard about Joe Biden at any point, you would have had mainstream media coverage and talking heads saying how it shows the public is worried about his age etc
Cracker Barrel can reingratiate itself with the right by making a TV commercial where Sydney Sweeney wears nothing but a barrel and calls herself a cracker.
Recent Zuckerberg hire has thoughts. www.theverge.com/news/757537/...
absolutely loving the idea of the woke cracker barrel tip line
Make it stop
Haha hey anybody remember Jill Stein?
(Harlan Crow whips out his checkbook): "I got your institutional mechanism right here!"
No notes
Tech people are insane
Good point.
Yup.
Sure, because they want troops wherever a Democrat might win a House race in 2026. www.axios.com/2025/08/31/t...
You can tell Trump's rural base anything negative about cities and they'll believe it. You can tell them we're all radioactive cannibals and they'd say, "Yeah, that's what comes from all that wokeness."
DeSantis got taxpayers to pay $250 million to make him look like a sadist racist in advance of the 2028 GOP presidential primaries. To him, that's priceless. www.newsweek.com/ron-desantis...
Yup.
He’s providing them with valuable mulching experience though.
Yeah, but that's probably because Fox came along and industrialized the hatemongering he did as an artisan.
I can think of six reasons.
Actually, Limbaugh made the America we live in. He and his imitators took your neighbors who disagree with you because you're liberal and turned them into people who hate you because you're liberal.
Usually it's the current wife and her kid who takes over an organized crime organization when the head dies suddenly.
It just sucks that we have to wait 6 months for Jake Tapper's next book to come out to find out if he's dead or not
If you’re in NY state members of the legislature are already pushing the health department to change the rules. 3/
Thi is Anerica. We'll be lucky if someone refuses to sell him pierogis.
Republicans always act in lockstep. They'll do it when Vance is president too (and that includes SCOTUS).
Maybe there's a business plot to sicken and kill Trump because of what he's doing on tariffs and the Fed, and also because Democrats are more likely to win the midterms if they're running against Trump. Big Business would probably greatly prefer Vance to Trump right now.
Me too.
We know that MF will never give us anything, including dying on a 3 day weekend. People are gonna have to use vacation days to celebrate.
They're not going to give you a posthumous Nobel either, motherfucker.
CHICAGO…
If Trump dies, crazy Republicans will say we had him murdered. "Respectable" Republicans will say we destroyed his health by prosecuting him and then opposing his policies. One way or another, every Republican will blame us for his death.
