Well, clearly, they should have communicated their withdrawal from "the fight" by drowning.

It's good—very good, and very important—that district courts keep issuing these 100-page rulings upholding the law. It must be incredibly dispiriting to see them overturned in a two-page, lawless, unsigned order, but please, keep them coming. They expose SCOTUS' corruption like nothing else.

This is undeniable. We haven’t broadly internalized — because, after all, this is America — the depths to which we have sunk with these execrable people. The incompetence, the graft, the affection for the transgressively vile and inhumane. We don’t see it clearly, but the rest of the world does.

The president is a political cartoon of corruption come to life, a gaudy grifter who is selling off pardons and lining his pockets, building a golden ballroom and protecting his fellow sex predator elites, all the while regular Americans are suffering and struggling to make ends meet. Run on *that*

The hard fact is that hoisting Trump on his own petard by using his sobriquet of piggie is insufficient. The diminutive makes it too cute, too playful. Donald Trump is, always has been, and always will be a pig.

There are specific reasons Trumpists want war on Venezuela, but there‘s a generic one: they crave power to make war on anyone, any time, for completely fabricated reasons, and then to use the guise of war to increase violence and repression everywhere, including home. They are lawless bestial scum.

What these people are doing is truly beyond words.

In case you’re wondering why Pete Hegseth is freaking out about a congressional video reminding the military not to participate in illegal orders:

Never forget this man’s name and face, and never let him forget what he is — a murdering goon.

Ah, these lucky Brazilians. One day . . . one day, here in America. One day.

The direct, no-punches-pulled language is what we need from everyone at this point. These people are miserable, incompetent, cowards — a thing literally no one, even those who profess to “support” these assholes — would dispute.

In honour of its proponents, I suggest that the Dmitriev-Witkoff proposal should henceforth be called the Dim-Wit Plan

Yeah, I mean, you never know. It could be perfectly legal for the Executive to direct the execution of members of Congress for reminding the military that their oaths are to the Constitution. We’ll need to wait for the lawyers to weigh in. What a miserable little fucking worm.

I’m sorry, but what the everloving fuck?

It remains comprehensively grotesque that a President of the United States would distribute bilge like this, but . . . at this point, “harsh measures” threats from this clown are just increasingly ridiculous. Do your best, Depends Boy.

It is nearly impossible to capture in words how catastrophic this gross little tableu — consisting of these three execrable people — is for the rule of law in this country. The only potential virtue is that they’re so terrible that they might provoke a sort of damage-limiting rebound reaction.

My expectations for this pig were already impossibly low, but this is the sort of thing that - out in the real world - gets the sloppy asshole who said it punched directly in his jowly fucking gob.

It is never not delightful to see very bad people who’ve done a very bad thing back on their heels, scrambling to dissemble their way out of their horrible behavior, but just . . . just . . . digging their hole ever deeper.

Trump Still Polling Well With Working-Class American Pedophiles https://theonion.com/trump-still-polling-well-with-working-class-american-pedophiles/

Who did the worst guy in the world think was the worst guy in the world? (Cue “Hail to the Chief.”)

Did Underage Girls Ruin Politics? Tomorrow in the @nytimes.com

This couldn’t be more accurate. The Republican Party’s principal purpose now is to use its control over the legislature to protect Trump from the consequences of disgusting behavior that our country — and all civilized societies — have criminalized for centuries. It’s indescribably gross.

After yesterday’s surrender, we’re launching the largest Democratic primary program that we’ve ever run. We will not back any Senate primary candidate unless they call for Schumer to step down as Minority Leader. If you’re as pissed as we are, join this campaign to rebuild the Democratic Party. 👇

I keep seeing regular Americans taking more risks every day to fight tyranny, want, and cynicism than I see from the opposition party, and I imagine many of those regular Americans are asking themselves what the value proposition of such an opposition party is, really

I think my Word of the Day email might be trolling the Democrats.

These politicians aren't in disarray. They fucking hate you. They don't work for you.

This guy is so fuckin dumb.

speaks volumes that Trump's response to tonight's resounding defeat is to demand Republicans redouble efforts to rig elections

National Democrats must not look at Mamdani and make the mistake of nominating more young, energetic candidates who people like

Glorious. “Kick your fucking ass, you piece of shit."

Among its many horrors, Kavanaugh Stops would actually authorize Homeland Security to stop two of Kavanaugh’s dissenting colleagues on the Court — Sotomayor and Jackson — as they made their way to work and demand proof of citizenship because, you know, their skin doesn’t look quite right.

We are never to trust the United States Department of Justice at any point, for any purpose, going forward — or at least until Trumpism has been burned to the ground and the earth fully salted.

There is precisely nothing about this that is even sub-atomically surprising. History conclusively demonstrates that authoritarianism’s boots on the ground are almost entirely filled by a society’s otherwise-unemployable dipshits.

Hey, great. The masked chickenshits have arrived in the PNW.

Yeah, this is full-hog Radio Rwanda / Der Sturmer tier stuff. Gives you an idea of whom they're going to end up hiring.

“Tell your children who the cowards were.”

Yes, but — Trump v. United States, perhaps the most catastrophic opinion the Supreme Court has ever issued. Everything about this falls squarely within the massive license for criminality that John Roberts gave to Donald Trump.

Lawless goons. There will be retribution, and we’ll deserve every bit of it.

Absolutely. We became a substantially worse country the day that opinion was issued. John Roberts took a jackhammer to the exquisitely crafted structure the Founders gave us.

i really resent the continued assertion that there’s so much anger on both sides, as if the causes of the anger are equally legitimate. we’re angry because masked maniacs are violently snatching our family and neighbors off the street, and they’re angry because we’re calling them out for it.

These people — the people delivering the shit, not the coward motherfuckers in the masks — still invoke some amount of pride in America.

One thousand times. Fuck these people for being cowards.

They're running the Reagan ad again. Fuck Trump, and God Bless Canada.

Here's a photo of my friend and colleague, Jorge Bautista, getting shot in the face with a flashbang grenade. The ICE Agent is so afraid of Jorge (who was posing no threat) that he has wet himself. Please share this photo. Everyone needs to know what cowards ICE agents are.

I’m sorry, but what in the everloving fuck? Apple, or Disney, or Tesla can just basically buy the military now? Everything’s now for sale? I’m not hopeless, and I’ll fight this shit forever, but things . . . are just breaking down. Trump and his people are beyond fucking horrible.

Breaking News: The U.S. military accepted a private donation of $130 million to help pay troops during the shutdown. The move is highly unusual and a potential violation of federal law.

The thing to understand about fascism is that most people you know will be bought off. Bought with promises of peace and stability, bought with business opportunities or paid with actual cash. Most people aren't going to resist. Get used to it and get used to operating in that environment.
