'Nothing worries me'? You're the President of the United States. If you're not worrying you're doing it wrong. Obama went gray during his time in office. He did his job.

Wouldn't it be fun if Dems took over both the House and Senate in November? Trump would be apoplectic and powerless. And maybe SCOTUS would have to come to terms with having some additional members. They certainly earned it. Then we could go back to being a goddamn democracy.

Sounds scared and I don't blame him. A million more chances his incompetent minions at DOJ will let one of the really bad Trump mentions slip through. Maybe something MAGA won't forgive him for. After all, they have daughters too.

Rising health care costs will completely eclipse that fake raise

Question: if there's irrefutable proof that Trump murdered Epstein, would THAT be enough? It's not Fifth Avenue so maybe?

This is the way. Looking at you, Epstein redactors.

So... basically a kill switch for democracy.

Democracy needs to really kick in now to save itself. The billionaires may have all the money but not all the votes, and that's where the real power is. If we turn every non-voter into a voter all the gerrymandering in the world won't save them.

It's crazy to me, these people who have studied democracy and the law, pledged their allegiance to it then undermine it to a degree that threatens its very existence. Like they're lighting fire to the bridge they're standing on.

When they put his name on it I wouldn't be surprised if the letters got repelled like the wrong side of a magnet, the building itself screaming, 'Noooooo!'

This is obscene. If God is on the side of these murderers and welcomes Hegseth (or Trump for that matter) into heaven with open arms things are not looking good for me afterlife-wise.

Anyone else find it troubling that they're doing tests on the president without telling him why or where

Let's go back through history to see just how solidly we are in 'bad guy' territory.

History is so tired of shouting.

Can someone please show me the entrance to the wormhole leading to that universe?

This is the opposite of democracy. From now on whoever votes for this should take a seat during the Pledge of Allegiance. Several seats.

Yikes, she'd better be careful. I think we're close to the part of authoritarianism where people start falling out of windows.

Should read 'Gaslight and Thanksgiving Prices'

Looking at you, Jake Tapper

We need to break Stacey Abrams out of Georgia and unleash her on the rest of the country, let her work her magic getting people, non voters especially, to the polls. She is fearless.

This is only the shit we're seeing in the light of day. God only knows what's happening in the shadows.

In what universe are these the good guys?

As a result, Trump's going to sign an executive order banning reality.

It's the permanence of this that gets me. A lot of the stuff he's done can be undone but you can't replace something that was built centuries ago. It's gone forever. I wish Trump were too.

Hey GOP, we're the only ones who should be allowed to carry the flag. You throw away that right every day you enable your would-be king to stay in power. You'd just love to toss aside that pesky democracy and take a short cut to oligarchy, elections be damned. You are no longer worthy of my flag.

Does anyone else still harbor the hope that all of this could change on a dime, maybe by way of a leaked Epstein revelation or some unforgivable gaffe? It all seems so fragile, built on lies, one hot-mic moment away from disaster. Could come any day. Please, God, make it so.

The quiet part is getting awfully loud

I'm learning that all my life I've given people way too much credit.

Seriously, Peter? History will be baffled by the media coverage during this time. American democracy was being dismantled in front of their eyes, the biggest story of their lifetimes, and journalists cowered in the corner or spent time on idiocy. Failed themselves, their readers and their republic.

I replaced Trump for Hitler in this AI generated piece and learned that I could predict the future:

They probably invited him back purely for entertainment purposes, an entire country laughing at him behind his back.

That's ok by me. My educated son will be their boss someday.

So unAmerican. There's a Ram truck commercial narrated by Dana White that ends with 'Never stop being American'. My question is what happens when America stops being American?

I think of the Trump regime as a last ditch effort to stop an inevitable tide of liberalism. Looking at ads on TV I see plenty of multiracial and LGBTQ+ families. Also, any job seeker will find that DEI is alive and well. They can try to smother it but good will win out in the end.

Can we stop legitimizing this farce by calling it a 'summit'? It was bullshit from the start and an insult to Zalenskyy. And then there's Lavrov's tee shirt....

I'm sure it'll be available to commoners for free for weddings and such

The judicial branch telling the executive branch it can't override the legislative branch. Love to see my democracy at work. Now if only they'd stay in their own lane. Looking at you, SCOTUS.

Yes, please give us the list, we'll just ignore the name between S and U that's crossed out with a black sharpie

Ok, I'll bite. I concede that Obama wrote every word of the Epstein files. NOW can I see them?

I feel like I'm going through the stages of death watching the slow motion downfall of democracy. I think I'm finally getting over my denial and careening fast into anger.

MAGA uses Christianity to do unchristian things. I'm thinking God will have the final word on that come judgment day.

Tarnishing the reputations of good men to distract us from the actions of awful ones.

He said they 'hate' our country, but the thing is Trump's the one who hates our country and wants to dispense with all our democratic norms and institutions that make America America.

If they worked in the corporate world they'd be fired

Or not, depends on who wins the narrative. Awful if Trump does and future kids learn that Jackson was an evil left liberal.

Is anyone keeping a Trump death toll?

Red states are hit hardest by weather issues so it seems like they've shot themselves in the foot. The shortsightedness of this administration will take a heavy toll.

We can't count on the courts or Congress or the press, the perfect storm against democracy. I think besides protests we need to focus on getting people who've never voted to the polls come midterms, if we make it there. It's an untapped goldmine for votes.

But why? They must understand their rulings are paving the way to Trump tyranny. Do they really have so little regard for democracy and the law? Isn't that why they studied the law in the first place? Why are they hell bent on destroying it?

Silly me, I thought she was supposed to side with the Constitution www.cnn.com/2025/06/27/p...
