The medal Trump gives Giuliani will melt when he’s in hell, just like Limbaugh’s.
A liberal, not “progressive”, antifascist who detests Trump’s Nutzis & collaborators. Incremental progress brings more good than does losing. Echo chambers lead to more losses, I’ll call you on using the same paranoia & logic as MAGAts (sorry).

Well, they couldn’t very well say “his head started leaking again and then he got into a car crash”.
“Mr. Veedel, Gore Veedel?”
Awesome country.
Because their empty claims about the 2nd amendment are just covers for the real reason: they like to play with their toys and are willing to accept the occasional slaughter of children to do so.
Hahaha. Hard to drive when your hands are down your pants
delete “least compassionate” and insert “cruelest” in its place.
Haha. I’ve seen Gestapo Barbie applied to her and the hideous shill Leavitt. So to make them distinct, both B-BB and Himmler Barbie are useful.
Trump is insane and bent on doing whatever he can to piss off people he sees as enemies - they like vaccines? He will get rid of them. They hate people dying of measles? He’ll let is spread. RFK, Jr is a worm-addled man full of anger at the world. That’s a bad, and deadly, combination.

And GOP members of Congress, who don’t care about anything, won’t care about this, either
And Republican members of Congress, who don't care about anything but their jobs, don't care about this, either.
It's not about blame. It tells us voters in more states are more conservative & vote that way. They do so consistently, hence all the R governors and legislatures. If we don't nominate candidates who can speak to them we will continue to lose. It's not all the usual scapegoats. It's voters.
Yes, they are scum. But let's not fool ourselves. They could only do what they did because voters not only elected them but elected GOP members of the Senate with the same beliefs over and over again for decades. They had the majority necessary and the presidency. The fault is on voters.
Another reason to be glad to live in the northeast.
If Ayn Rand cultists would bother to put down the potato chips and leave mom's basement they'd be pissed.
or CBS
Because you understand political reality, (a) that people suffer every day the Rs are in power and (b) sitting it out or waiting for one’s vote “to be earned” makes that more likely. Thanks for saying it.
As long as Republican members of Congress do nothing and the SC supports him Orange Fucko will continue his wreckage. Democrats can sit around and wait for failure or they can scream, it won’t make a difference except in how Ds feel. We need mass protests weekly, biweekly, daily - and I’m no lefty.
Being intellectually equivalent to a zombie from the crypt is not the same as being crypto.
Haha. Yes, it is. Maybe worse are the “grind your own” machines that add the remnants of someone else’s flavored coffee to whatever you grind. Because flavored coffee is the work of Satan. For coffee sold in supermarkets try Gëvallia.
Anyone who believed Trump was the “peace candidate” was and is a fool. His way to peace is the same as that of the bomb on Hiroshima.
And the Supreme Court will say it's fine.
NYT headline "Hand Bruises Mean Longevity, White House Doctors Say".
Whether people don't care or they just didn't buy it because they'd been through 4 years of Trump and the country survived it clearly didn't work. People who hated/feared Orange Fucko were already voting for KH. No matter what people here say, KH didn't focus on economic matters in the last 3 weeks.
Yes, I think because it's been doing its thing so long people forget what a significant roll Fox plays.
Yes, it's a concern, although the party out of power probably tends to lag. I don't know what it bodes for elections. People may be waiting for candidates they see as fighting for them. I'm not sure why they'd give to the DNC. frankly, the incessant fundraising texts/emails have exhausted people.
Uh-oh, you have said something that violated the rules of the BlueSky Inquisition. You didn’t check all the boxes they dictate as necessary for ideological purity. Apostate!
These fuckers better enjoy their ride, because they're all going to prison when the fun ends -- if they're lucky.
I’m off here for a while (as if you’d notice). Idiocy is rampant. When the Lefty Inquisition would rather pursue apostates than defeat Trumpism they are stating clearly that their priority is their own sense of moral superiority, not winning. And false info is a spreading infection here. Enough.
You’re wise to understand that regardless of what one feels/believes on any individual issue there won’t be progress (or salvation) if we don’t stand together to defeat Trumpism. I’m for anyone who can win- we progress from there. Good call questioning the motives of anyone spreading lies. Bravo.
He just wants the Sudetenland and that’s it. Promise.
You need time on an analyst’s couch. And none on my feed - block!
Well, I run one of those and my response to him is that he can go fuck himself. The only good thing in that bill is the higher SALT threshold, because it better enables blue states to take care of our own stuff so we can tell him to go fuck himself on more things.
Inch by inch? We’re being steamrolled.
If the SC can’t find it’s way to clearly support birthright citizenship- which is actually IN the Constitution, there is no hope it will ever stop Trump when it matters. Congress? A joke. They all want him to roll things back as far as possible so should a fix come it will take decades.
No. It’s on Congressional Rs. Not the dimwits like the FreeDumb Caucus or fascists like the experienced molester-protector Jordan. But the ones that know better - the destruction of America is on them.
Exactly right. Nobody stops him so why stop himself? If there is a hell, collaborators among Congressional Rs and on the Supreme Court will roast forever.
People underestimate the impact of right-wing media like Faux News and (at that time) Limbaugh. Yes, there is MSNBC and, for a short time a radio network (was it Liberty?) but they simply don’t draw the same ratings. I can go on about that, but my point is that the Right has more successful media.
Yes, a fair point. I can’t for various reasons, but mostly because of my job, from which I’d probably be fired.
Because he fundamentally believes that the economy means Ds will win in 2026. And, yes, we should run candidates who talk about mainly that. But it’s a miscalculation. Waiting until November 2026 is political suicide. It will be all over by then. It practically is now.
This is the key question - because the courts aren’t stopping him, Ds in Congress are powerless & waiting for 2016 is political suicide. There is no option left except mass protests. I’ve believed/worked in the political/govt system my whole life. It’s no longer working. He exposed its flaws.
Yes. It’s the same miscalculation made by AG Garland in not prosecuting Trump. The idea/hope/delusion that it’s all normal & will return that way because “it always has.” It’s a dangerous mistake. I’m no DSA-type lefty but we need Ds to lead mass, national protests. Their angry letters do nothing.
The result will be grousing by Ds and an explosion of anger…in social media echo chambers. The SC will let it stand. Just like what happens with every other outrage. Only mass national protests can stop this guy.
People have said “___ could never really happen” on any number of his outrages that then really happened. And nobody can stop them. The courts and Congressional Rs back him, Ds have no power. Without mass, nationwide, protests - weekly at a minimum,fascism will march on. When are those happening?
And, as the outrages mount, where are the nationwide protests? They are sporadic, at best. People complaining to each other on social media doesn’t cut it.
Yes, just like the ancestors of the people who now want to shut the door on them.
It is the only issue/topic that moves people According to polls voters (say) they don’t like the outrages to democracy & basic rights. But if those things mattered to them Kamala would be president. Moreover his job approval numbers really haven’t plummeted & only dip when there’s bad economic news
It isn’t difficult or surprising for a Democrat (of whatever stripe) to stand with their friends and denounce Trump. But for a public conservative, it’s a huge leap that means a break with long-time friends and allies. That isn’t easy to do. But doing so anyway means a real commitment to democracy.
Every delay in developing vaccines, any new antivaxxer created by RFK is on Sen. Bill Cassidy. Dr.Cassidy had encouraged Louisianans to get vaxxed during covid & believes in vaccines. He could have blocked the nomination but was worried about re-election. First do no harm, cowardly collaborator.
I heard crime in D.C. is up, the numbers skewed by the relocation there of some guy with 34 felony convictions and who was also found responsible for rape and financial fraud. And he brought a gang of outlaws with him.
I agree. The only way to defeat fascism is for everyone who says they’re against it to work with people they might not otherwise agree with - from Never Trump Republicans to moderate Democrats to Socialists. We can fight with each other later. Now we have to stand together.
…problem is: Republican collaborators care more about holding their seats than they do democracy.
The country is made up of interests, political scientists talk about it as “pluralism”. You didn’t say “interests” are bad, but many here do. Interests include teachers, nurses, people needing mental health care, unions, farmers, etc., all with lobbyists & making donations to candidates. The…
They’re scum.
Also puts them all in jail.
A role model for amoral gold-diggers everywhere. And it isn’t the part before marrying him that I’m calling amoral.
It’s a monstrous, inhumane policy supported by people who — descendants of immigrants themselves — have lost their souls. As for the “I didn’t think he meant me” crowd: GFY
Just remember this phrase and apply it throughout each day when reading about Trumpian horrors: “…and the American people, who don’t care about anything that doesn’t affect them directly, won’t care about this either…and neither will Congress.” It will save you a lot of disappointment.
None of which will be reported by Fox News or, if it is, it will be in passing.
Gold toilet boy who wants to name part of the Kennedy Center after his stripper wife. What crap people. If you ever wondered what would happen if the dumb kids from high school took over the country - now you know.
Yes, economic well-being is what most vote on. They perceived Dems as not addressing that but being obsessed with identity politics & Trump as a threat. Because they lived through him before the latter didn’t work. Yeah, KH talked about it but it was not seen (or portrayed) as what Ds cared about.
This is what all Democrats can agree on, no matter where they are on the political spectrum. Economic growth for the middle & lower classes is what we should tun on, because that is what Americans care about. We can fight other battles later, but this is the one that wins, and that comes first.
Cruelty for its own sake.
Ask Dr. Cassidy when he’s going to call for RFK’s impeachment. Then remind him that his support for the fool’s nomination will be responsible for death and disability.
Don’t forget their own stupidity for voting for him.
They all make the same mistake. Public officials who collaborate all use the same excuses. The best word to describe them?
How many deportees -have 34 felony convictions? -have been found guilty of committing hundreds of millions of dollars of fraud? -have been found by a jury to be responsible for rape? -are suspected of raping kids? Four things to say to any fucker who says “too bad, they committed a crime”.
Another imbecile.
No, I just like to post it periodically in the hopes it gets spread around and he has to deny it. So far, no go, although I did hear Carville talking about it (no, I’m not saying he saw my posts).
The unrelenting devouring of braincells by untreated syphilis is known to cause erratic behavior. Oh, how one pays for one’s debauchery!
They’re arrogant and selfish. They are also fools if they can’t see that even if not meeting their standards of perfection, a candidate who will do less harm is better than another who will do more harm. They live in a fantasyland in which perfection (as they self-righteously define it) is possible.
You are right, but people here don’t like things contrary to decreed cant…or memes.
Congrats,Trump voters. Another win for you, more motiveless cruelty. If you didn’t want that and voted for him anyway - or you didn’t vote for his only viable opponent- you wrecked your country because you were frivolous and thoughtless. You are worse than MAGAs because you should have known better
She grew up in a cult in which people ate its leader’s nail clippings (look it up). Is it any wonder she is so comfortable shamelessly sucking up to her new cult leader and spewing his nonsense?
He’s an imbecile and anyone who thinks be should be running the country — whether they are born-dimwits, lunatics, greedheads or fascists— is an imbecile, too.
The last thing the idiot in the White House should want is a public vetting - in court or not - of Jack Smith’s investigation.
He is human garbage. He can’t even blame the advancing, untreated syphilis for the leachate that comes out of his mouth - he’s been human sewage for years.
Well, when the MAGA run ends - and it will end one day - they are going to need somewhere to escape to.
His cult are dolts and fascists. Don't expect anything from them, ever. The others, the ones who voted for the monster but aren't cult members - those are the ones we need to get.
This is a fundamental point. It isn’t just monster & MAGA victories, it’s decades of Rs winning town councils, legislatures, Congress. We need to talk about what matters to most people. If we win we can make progress on social or other issues. The problem isn’t rigging, it’s the electorate.
This is a mistake. I’m not saying Rs aren’t trying to tip the scales, they are. But we won’t win if we think we lose because of rigging. It leads to a belief that the public really wants leftist pols. It doesn’t, in most places. Unless we run candidates who appeal to all voters we will lose again.
See Pig, Blind, stumbles over occasional acorn.
Does the golden ballroom have a golden shower? I hear he likes those.
They have no souls. At long last, there is no decency or shame left. None.
Roberts and his stooges will live in infamy. Their descendants will bear the stain.
Mitchy sucks and did bad things. But he could not have done so without a Senate majority built over decades on their cockamamie legal views. This is on the voters. They consciously chose these pricks again and again for years - for legislatures & Congress Until we grasp that we will keep losing.
Also the last time he golfed he got 18 holes-in-one
And if the federal worker is an Islamic reactionary who supports a caliphate will the rule be the same? I’m going to guess not. Because whether the above should or should not be ok, it’s not about religion. It’s about imposing Christianity and Christian dominance of US society.
Yes but, sadly, that ship has sailed. Whether out of fear of losing their posts, delusions of being a firewall or physical threats from MAGA dimwits they have sold their souls and show no sign of caring more about the country than themselves. History will curse them and their wretched offspring.
As I continually say: I hope there is an afterlife so they can spend eternity roasting between the charred walls of the Vichy Section of hell. I hope it’s painful.
THEY are responsible for him & his damage. There aren’t enough dimwitted MAGAs to elect him or enact his madness. His coterie of sycophants & Project 2025 fascists is relatively small. The Rs who know better, and others, empower & legitimize him each time they bend over. This disaster is on them.
This is exactly right - a sizable percentage of the population never hears about most of it.
I agree. The country as we knew it is gone for good, killed by Republicans in Congress who know better and go along anyway. This is on them, the Supreme Court and everyone else who folds- further empowering and legitimizing him and his brownshirted stooges. But we have to fight anyway.
Not if the GOP Congress has anything to say about it…they seem to like being on their knees. The dumb ones and lunatics have an excuse. But the ones that just go along? There is no redemption for them. The Vichy Section of Hell awaits them.
Atta boy. I always appreciate a well-articulated and thought out point.
