Pretty amazing point in history: we have an administration in place that we distrust so thoroughly that we assume we might not be told if the head of state were to die.

Pretty amazing point in history: we have an administration in place that we distrust so thoroughly that we assume we might not be told if the head of state were to die.
I’d say that range is optimistic.
Do not disturb: Otterly exhausted
He’s either dead, very sick, or secretly meeting with the other authoritarians, Putin, Xi et al.
New in PN: "By the time you read this, the White House may have put out a Labor Day statement. It will no doubt offer an effusive tribute to Trump, who in his infinite beneficence has delivered workers a utopia of prosperity. But back on Earth, he's the most anti-labor president in modern history."
Who is running the executive branch?
Here in the US, “two weeks” actually means never.

“Take that, Florida!” he shouted, or perhaps just thought quietly to himself. www.upi.com/Odd_News/202...
Just visited the ruins of the Smallpox Hospital on Roosevelt Island. I was looking for a sign announcing that RFK Jr. will begin renovations soon because, you know: Make Smallpox Great Again.
For those of us who live in LA, this is beyond parody and veers into insanity in pursuit of authoritarianism...
Make no mistake, everything that’s happening in the United States is being significantly enabled by the right wing oligarch capture of media. Every other country needs to do everything possible to keep that from happening where they are. Including protecting the CBC from Poilievre here in Canada.
They don't jive do they?
Hollywood glorifying heroes with guns in Westerns and glory-boy war movies I believe contributes significantly.
Mass shootings stem from a nation built on violence. The U.S. was founded on the genocide of its Indigenous population, land appropriation. Its history includes the enslavement of African Americans, forced religious assimilation, discriminatory laws, and numerous acts of oppression.
Can’t imagine why 🤔🤷
He never answers me.
TEN THINGS FOX NEWS MIGHT POSSIBLY SAY ON THE BLESSED DAY WHEN IT FINALLY HAPPENS 10. As shocking and horrifying as it may sound, we have heard reports that Muslims are definitely celebrating in the streets of New Jersey
When it happens I will be partially responsible for item #7.
Pritzker on Trump sending troops into cities: "He has other aims other than fighting crime... he would like to stop the elections in 2026 or frankly take control of those elections. He'll just claim there's some problem with an election and then he's got troops on the ground that can take control."
Oh, Andy Borowitz. What a gem you are.

People, please stop ruining my "he could be dead" party. Sure maybe JD can control a cult while being controlled by an in-fighting committee of trillionaire shadow POTUS bros. I don't think so. But even so, he'll still be very dead. Dead is good. We have to find joy where we can.
Jumpin’ Fudgey Cookies does he even hear the words coming out of his own mouth?
ATTN UNIONS: You're next on the menu.

The bigger problem is the Rs in control of congress are not doing their constitutional duty of checking him.
This Administration doesn't care about the laws. They don't care about due process. All they care about is power and exerting control over cities they don't like. Los Angeles will not stand for it.
This is the High Level Bridge in Lethbridge. It’s the longest and tallest steel trestle bridge in the world. This month marks 116 years since construction finished. Thanks to the 500 workers who built it, especially the 4 workers who died on the job. ✊🛠️🚂
Actual Christian speaks truth to power and calls out fake Christians for their hypocrisy! 👊🏻👏🏼👏🏼💙💙

when it happens... I will be online ALL day. cancel my appointments. hold my calls. "what were you doing when you found out?" my grandchildren will ask. "the posts, children, I was reading the posts!!" I'll say, and we'll all crowd around my scrapbook containing the best ones
Damnation I’m out. Shall have to make an emergency run first thing. Just so I’m prepared.
I am reminded that I need to get a bottle of champagne to have ready in fridge for a moment's notice. Lot of doom and gloom in the world now, and for good reason. But good news can happen at any time!
Yes, well, we know those grown MAGA men have been hiding behind school children for decades. Somebody has to protect them.
There has never been a functioning merit-based system. They hire/promote who they want and rationalize their actions but they always have and always will discriminate.
This is an episode of #Dateline I’d love to watch 😳
WOW
Welcome to the latest MAGA Minute. Today, Trump announces that “ALL TARIFFS ARE STILL IN EFFECT!” Editor’s Note: An appellate court today confirmed that the bulk of Trump’s tariffs are invalid. The ruling was not, however, in ALL CAPS, leading MAGA to question its authority. #RFA
Fire Robert Kennedy Jr.! open.substack.com/pub/roberthu...
I do not understand people who walk through the parts of town that are now homeless encampments and be like “these people need to go away” instead of “wow, society is really failing human beings as a whole”
Stole it. Read it to the bottom. crkⓋ
I for one am glad to see that state trooper🤣
When the propaganda and flattery banners go up it’ll be USSR 2.0 Yes, it’s an alarmingly rapid transformation.
Another for whom a catastrophically debilitating apoplectic event would be welcomed.
Lots of right-wing political pastors and charlatans about to get rich from FEMA money.
The Boots Theory is an economic theory that people in poverty have to buy cheap and subpar products that need to be replaced repeatedly, proving more expensive in the long run than more than the expensive items the wealthy only need to buy once. open.substack.com/pub/jesspipe...
When a president decides to disregard the will of the American people, you’re right, that’s the mark of authoritarian rule. The White House has notified Congress that it plans to cancel $4.9 billion in foreign aid funding that lawmakers had already approved, doing so without their consent.
Luckily intelligence will outcompete them.
The convoy was just the first salvo, and Greenland is a cautionary tale. The American plot to Trumpify/annex Canada and/or break us up (i.e. Alberta separatism) is well underway. We need to fight/oppose them in every way possible. deanblundell.substack.com/p/this-is-no...
Trump’s Pentagon is reinstalling a 20-foot portrait of Robert E. Lee — with a slave guiding his horse in the background — at West Point. Trump and Hegseth are honoring traitors who fought against America to keep people enslaved. There’s nothing “patriotic” about this.
The injustice continues. A terrorist is now being honored by our military... My latest God I'm pissed!!! substack.com/@harrydunn/n...
I can't believe how good he is starting to look already. One of the kindest and most gentle dogs we've ever had.
The national Democratic Party has forgotten how to fight. But in this critical moment, we need fighters — not folders. We need a Democratic Party that is a little less Washington and a little more Texas.

Thank you, Mayor Frey 💔
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Well, we’re not ready to accept him but at least it’ll be easier to impeach him.
I wish Americans would get louder about their opposition to this man in particular; he is damaging global public health for an entire generation and millions of the most vulnerable around the world will suffer and die directly because of him. A mortality rate equivalent to plagues.
13th Amendment is slavery. Massive corrections are needed to the Constitution.
Welch: Everybody's missing the point here. The point is, he's doing this on purpose. He's priming the public to get accustomed to having the military in the streets
This is the reality the indigenous people have to face. The Washington AG should file charges against ICE.
Trump literally wants to burn blue states to the ground.

Trump DISHONORS All Military Members! youtu.be/hn9UL7xKq7E?...
She violated her oath to the constitution. She absolutely does not deserve any military honors. She should have been posthumously dishonorably discharged.
Here he goes.
🤣😂🤣😂🤣 OMG, this is hilarious. @governor.ca.gov is so creative. The ending 😂🤣😂🤣😂! #newsom #arresttrump

Will wonders never cease?
New, from me: America is no longer a functioning democracy. It is a competitive authoritarian system, hurtling rapidly toward authoritarianism. This was a hard piece to write but we can't move forward if we don’t acknowledge where we are. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/the-author...
How long before they start hanging propaganda banners everywhere?
Let's just forget about the ignorant PoS you installed as your God-King & the way you've treated us for a moment, why would Canadians buy American booze when there are better and cheaper alternatives? Get more Americans to buy your sh*t & support you! You know, "America First" & all that Bullsh*t.
How are we going to wait until the midterms to try to put a stop to this insanity? It’s only been 7 months, and look where we are.
The Toronto Blue Jays held a moment of silence prior to the start of tonight’s baseball game vs the Minnesota Twins. Canada is a good friend. 🇨🇦
The call is coming from inside the house..
This country will never be great as long as we continue to have mass murders in our churches and schools.
The ruling party is giving it up for a white nationalist child rapist dictator because they can’t play in the sandbox with women and people with more melanin. That 21 point swing in Iowa is a good sign that America isn’t buying their bullshit. #GuardingOverPedophiles #RemoveTrump

It is not funny anymore (never was) … we are fascism. I am embarrassed most in front of my German friends, who loved us… expected better of us… 😢 this is so bad…
🚨Trump: “I’m not a dictator… but I can do anything I want. I’m the President of the United States.” Millions of Americans have worn the uniform and sworn an oath to defend the Constitution, not one man’s ego. Trump is spitting on that sacrifice and shredding the values we served to defend.
They are sending soldiers into cities to prepare to intimidate people at the polls next year. They gerrymander because they can’t win on policy. They intimidate because even gerrymandering won’t work at this point.
Aw, c’mon, admit it: Yes you still have the puppy kids but you’re going to miss the chaos the human kids bring. For a minute or so.
Empty nester life.. 🤷🏻♂️👀
I’m not surely how I feel about that 😳🤔
Tariffs removed doesn’t need to mean consumers have to start buying. As much as possible, we need to keep buying Canadian 🇨🇦

I spotted this dog in Delhi, India at the weekend out of the corner of my eye. He was being beaten. Luckily we got him to safety. His recovery has started
With a straight face.
Christ, the gaslighting-fascism..
Is this before or after the health care plan?
id be slightly less angry at dem leadership saying theyre only interested in throwing political punches on “kitchen table issues” if they were currently out there landing punches on “kitchen table issues”
