We still have to rely on you to help us. How dumb is that?

Can congress do anything to block his stupidity? States should be able to determine what their citizens need using real medical data from competent professionals.
Not sure why no one has done anything about these private equity firms. It’s obscene
And the Senate stands by and watches. “Quick - get the media team. We have to make pithy social media post about this that completely absolves us from the tiresome work of actually doing anything”
Bless your heart, Chuck. You have managed to elevate uselessness to an art form.
I am an old white guy and I completely agree with you. Its not ageist, its common sense. It’s your world you are voting for, not mine. We had our shot and tripped over our own feet.
A victory for democracy – that you had absolutely no hand in bringing about. When are you gonna tell us what you’ve done?
Wha? Huh? Sorry, I nodded off. Did the democrats do something? Zzzzzzzz
Actually the response to it feels similar
As a teacher, I get it. But we have more pressing problems. The Democrats are losing the support of the people. According to the NYT article, you are alienating new registrars. You have no cohesion, you have no message and you are doing nothing. This situation is your fault.
You all need to stop being so pithy. You, as a party, have done little to nothing regarding this fascist overthrow of the government. Instead of coming up with asinine quips, get your hands dirty once. Throw a punch. You are just embarrassing
Oh heck, no, you’re starting to grow on me. We will never see eye to eye, but we may entertain each other.
Do you seriously think that I believe everything that I get from for-profit media? Point is that when you use terms like “NWO globalist controlled propaganda machines”, you sound like a nut. As if all those entities could muster that kind of cooperation. Billionaires are the only enemies.
And don’t flatter yourself
I’m sorry that I’m such a disappointment to you. But you remain tiresome, in my opinion.
Okay, do you want a medal? The amount of people that watch something is not a measure of its validity. Do you ever think that some left leaning people might watch it to get some bafflingly stupid sound bite or just as a way to see what the other side is thinking? C’mon
I didn’t block you, sunshine. I just don’t have time for cultists.
You must like the taste of the Kool-Aide. Tinfoil hats…on!
Sorry but you are tiresome. I’d have more success convincing one of my shoes about the real world. This is where we part amicably.
Yes I have. The first was a post ww2 effort to control information about the US to foreign listeners. The second is an alleged CIA effort to manipulate news services for propaganda. Amazing how that sounds like Fox News and Newsmax. It does not prove your claim. Try again.
Great account name. Love it
Please explain. With facts, not Fox News talking points.
Oh, if only cool graphics would solve problems, the Democrats would be golden. What does this idiot have to do to finally piss you guys off enough to get your asses in gear? You’re embarrassing.
It’s not even a matter of Americans are relying on Social Security. It is our money that we paid into the system that promised to protect us when we reach retirement age. If you allow this to happen, the party as you know it will be gone. This is your job.
Okay then give us back all the money we paid into it. Tax free while you’re at it
Yes. Thanks. We know. We are not imbeciles. Except, perhaps our naive notion that we thought voting for you to protect us was a good idea. Maybe we are imbeciles. Oooh! Shiny object!!
Do these communities not have TVs, internet or a town cryer? I bet they already know all these issues very well. You are just a robot walking in circles because you have no ideas and no political will to fix anything.
Right now we have NOTHING to celebrate. It’s asinine to waste effort on empty tributes when our democracy is circling down the toilet. Geez, get focused. Solve the problem then we’ll have something to celebrate
Then why aren’t the Democrats jumping on every nerve that this president exposes? It seems that if you just make him mad enough, he’ll stupid his way right out of the presidency. Why do I have to tell you your job?
I’ve never seen a president that hates half the citizens he presides over. That includes Nixon and Reagan. What a horrible human-like creature
Then EVERY blue state should gerrymander the hell out of their state. Play their game and do it better. The gloves have to come off.
Oh! You mean old white guys. Ok. I get it. That makes sense. I have to own that. My camp by virtue of birthdate and ethnicity are, as a group, horrific. that’s why it’s so vital for young people of all colors and origins make deeper inroads into our government. From school board to president.
Maybe they should start by lowering taxes. That would keep more seniors in the state.
No offense, but what the hell does that even mean? It’s trying to make a point by not making sense. You will make a great politician.
Saving the country one snarky comment at a time. I’ll sleep better knowing you are on the job.
Didn’t know I was trying to. I should try being clever like you and just be rude and painfully unoriginal
Clever
Why are you kids so rude? We are in the middle of the biggest constitutional crisis since 1861 and you are telling me I should vote after I said I have done so for 40 years. Stop trusting old white guys. We are the problem.
Sorry for upsetting you for wanting the people I pay to do more than post on social media. I’ll try to be better
Until they take it away from you. Which they are trying to do each election cycle. Mark Twain said “If voting made a difference, they wouldn’t let us do it”. I’m a little less jaded than that, but…
I do. Every election since 1980 when I voted against Ronald Reagan. Maybe you should stop thinking you’re clever.
I actually do. He is the party chair of the Democratic Party. As such, he is the face of the Democratic Party. Therefore, he can accept criticism about the organization he leads. Maybe you should mind your business.
We can’t stop him. That’s your job. That’s why we overpay you and allow you all the perks that we can’t access. Right now you and the democrats are a poor investment
Are you not getting that symbolic “standing together” is not a solution? It’s a photo op. It’s an empty gesture at the very least. You’ve let every single one of his appointees get the job. You’ve done literally nothing to stand in their way. Except for complaining social media posts.
But if they refuse, then what? These days the law doesn’t seem to have the teeth it once had.
I wish someone would just burn it on the tarmac (making sure that no one’s on it at the time)
We are way past the concerned stage. We are in the terrified stage. I’m not sure what this president has to do in order to get people off their butts and doing something drastic, but having a gestapo with concentration camps seems a likely candidate.
So does that mean you just give up? Find something to do about it. Some of the comments have ideas, you need to use out of the box thinking to fight an unconventional enemy. At least throw a punch or something.
We should only allow candidates to use public money that we have figured out a way to distribute to viable candidates and shorten the damn electoral season to a couple of months. It’s just so ponderous. And get rid of the electoral college. It serves no purpose.
Why do you have so much time to smile and mug for the camera? We are scared to death because we don’t feel we have anyone protecting us. You are not losing your jobs, your pension is secure, your healthcare is not in danger. Read the room
Yes, yes, a million times yes, we know. What we don’t know is your plan to protect us. That’s why you get paid 3 times what your constituents average. Do something embarrassing if that’s what it takes. History will vindicate you.
Is it a constitutional crisis yet? Are you asleep?
Then send one of your people there just to be in the area for goodness sake’s. Standing in your office and bitching about it is not gonna do a damn thing.
They are our representatives in Congress. As such, we should point out when they aren’t performing the jobs we elected them to.
Is a hollow win really a win?
I really wish I could believe what you guys say at this point. But, as these things go, the Republicans will find a way to weasel out of it. Then you’ll be able to say “well, we tried”
Nice quip but now do something about it. Maybe come up with some unified platform that appeals to people in the middle. It’s kind of embarrassing to have to tell you your job.
Why do you all insist on constantly repeating things that we already know? It’s as if you have no plan or no ability to mount a defense. That couldn’t be right, right? Jefferies could not even pretend to be happy about Mamdani’s win in New York. What are you goobers doing?
Then break with tradition and don’t waste it. Don’t give it to tired old white men who should have retired long ago. Give it to someone with some guts and young angry blood that will actually do something.
Why would you buy a company that willingly cuts off a lucrative revenue stream for a deluded despot? CBS and Paramount are spineless and I hope they lose copious amounts of money on the deal
Great movie! Loved it!
Let’s address the elephant in the room; everything that happens in the US at this point in history is bad for working families.
You get what you get when you hire imbeciles.
There’s something especially vile about people who can screw thousands of people and then have giant smiles for the camera. Hopefully there’s a special section of hell for them.
Can we please stop funding Alligator Alcatraz? It is a yet another stain on our history that we will have to explain to our descendants. @alsobrooks.senate.gov @elfreth.house.gov @raskin.house.gov @vanhollen.senate.gov
25th amendment, impeachment, emoluments clause, just being a dick- please formally accuse him of something, even if it won’t work.
People are dying, Chuck. And every day there is some new outrage. Speeches and talk aren’t gonna do it. We need a plan. We need something that normal Americans can grab onto and feel that there is some hope. Right now, hope is in very short supply
Scam is a bit too polite for what’s happening here. You might get scammed out of $100, but there has to be a better word when they take everything and leave you for dead.
I’m confused about the whole MAGA agenda. Why is he going after one of the groups that pay federal taxes? How do you get zillions to waste on golf and concentration camps? His rich friends? Nope, they hate him, except to his face. We are reduced to a nation of weasels
Give us people to vote for!!
And our president hates us. Please tell me you have plans for the midterms, even if it’s a lie. I just need to hear the words
Oh. It’s nice but it’s a little understated.
And so ends our place as a world leader. We had a good, if historically short, run.
It’s all nightmare no matter how you look at it? What about the 10 year lack of restrictions on AI? I like to see a list of government officials who will benefit financially from that.
Really? Republicans need to work on self awareness
Nice win! Excellent!
The post Trump version of America needs to address term limits and clearer emoluments legislation
How did we become such a mean country?
We can only hope that their constituents punish them for it
