It seems the only thing that ever gets scraggly old Melania to interrupt her Eva Peron-inspired preservation rituals is the promise of a meal.

In rare lucid moment, Trump confesses that he is not running the government and his toadies are issuing all sorts of orders without his knowledge using the autopen, and he can't stop them. For him to now deny this is what's happening is perjury. It's always projection with Trump.

This indicates Trump has regressed from reliving a past life as a European monarch to the one where he built a pyramid. Joke's on Trump when he dies this time and his new pyramid is reduced to rubble dumped on his grave as the White House removes all traces of his vainglorious vandalism.

We see Trump verbally abusing women in the most degrading, demeaning terms while he knows cameras are rolling. Now imagine how he treated girls with no defenses against a leering, hulking stranger old enough to be their father behind closed doors. THAT'S why he's hiding the Epstein files.

I'd like to know how many backyard BBQ grills had to be emptied to give Kim Guilfoyle her perfect smoky eyes?

Now that Stephen Miller is shaving himself completely bald, I wish someone could take one of Trump's big permanent black Sharpies and draw penises all over that blank canvas as he sleeps, so he either has to hide for months until it wears off, or wear ugly, obvious-looking wigs to conceal it.

I vividly remember George H. W. Bush being oblivious to recession and unemployment because I was unemployed at the time. He never got a 2nd term. But we need to find another way to punish Trump, and it has to be very harsh to get his attention, and we'd better do it soon because he's fading fast.

Beneath his innate stupidity and Cheney's horrible influence, Bush was otherwise a normal, likable, funny guy. Trump is pure evil to his core, with no positive human qualities whatsoever. "Turnaround" is impossible for Trump. He can only double down on his own vileness. He's got nothing else.

We need our vets and current service members to obey their oaths by telling Trump definitively that they're NOT "his" military. His ex-con J6 pot-bellied limp-dicked faux-ICE bubbas don't stand a chance against U.S. armed forces united against Trump's tyranny, and Trump needs that made clear.

I want Trump turning up at every event from now on hoarse because he's been screaming at everyone about everything. Becoming violent is another sign his dementia is worsening and I'm eager to read all about it. I want to see all his handlers frazzled and beaten down to nubs by his nonstop tantrums.

Since a big chunk of society (and Congress) are willing to accept Trump's dire level of dementia as normal and let him ravage our government and economy, we should have no one living in memory care. They should all be out here on their own, doing whatever. What we called "sanity" no longer exists.

I've been hoping the world could give thanks for the end of MAGA today, but so far there have been no reports that the overworked, underpaid peon at Mar-a-Lago carving his turkey slipped with the knife and shivved him, he choked on a bone, or fell asleep and drowned in the gravy boat.

Two National Guardsmen from West Virginia who should have been home prepping for Thanksgiving with their families, not prowling DC streets to stroke Trump's demented ego (while he's not even THERE), have died because he gave the illegal order to occupy an American city. This is a tragedy.

I wonder what the theme of Thanksgiving will be at Mar-a-Lago tomorrow? Perhaps "The Reign of Louis XVI." Melania, if she shows up, can be Marie Antoinette,

The last thing I want Trump to face is the realities of aging. What I really want him to face is the reality of death.

Front page today's Richmond Times-Dispatch: Beef could hit $10/lb. by Q3 2026. Inside, Page A6: You can feed 10 with all the trimmings this Thanksgiving for $80.48. I feel gaslit.

Anyone's who's actually made Thanksgiving dinner for a gang knows it runs a few $100s by the time you buy all the delicious ingredients for a feast. Not to mention optional booze. This morning I read an estimate that it costs a bit less than $6/person. That's if you're serving TV dinner quality.

Why do all the BS estimates of what this year's Thanksgiving will "cost" assume people are serving with turkey: a can of peas or cranberry sauce (with dented lines in it), a bag of frozen green beans, stuffing from a box, a bag of rolls, and nothing's jeujed up or made from scratch?

Can't see Kelly recalled and court-martialed for stating a common fact. To do so would be to obey the type of order Kelly warned against obeying. But I would like to see Democrats preemptively call for the "Kelly punishment" for Mike Flynn, a provable, indisputable seditious traitor.

New Trump symptom? I don't think it's the mic. Watch the 2 clips of Trump speechifying at the turkey pardon. Sounds like he's juggling a lot of saliva in his mouth. Next up in Trump's decomposition: uncontrollable drooling.

What makes me happiest about Brazilians' rapid response to Trump and Bolsonaro's attempted hookup to help Bolsonaro escape justice is: 1) Trump loses a dictator buddy, 2) Trump loses Brazil to lam off to like a Nazi in exile, 3) The global field is permanently cleared of one more evil player.

Bolsonaro becomes the latest example of #ETTD - Everything Trump Touches Dies. He talked to Trump Friday night, and by Tuesday he's probably spending what's left of his life in a Brazilian prison. We can learn a lot from Brazil about resisting and punishing wannabe dictators.

If this is true, I'm sure it's because Patel's girlfriend is a nondescript brunette who "isn't Trump's type" for raping, so he can't see anyone wasting money to date her or protect her.

“It is time for Democrats to embrace a sweeping, aggressive, unvarnished, unapologetic, and altogether unmistakable platform of pure economic rage.” -James Carville

If Lindsey Halligan was illegally appointed, does this mean she is now officially unemployed? I sure hope Trump hasn't had her pole in the WH private residence taken down so at least she can still dance for him.

Elon promised Trump he could rig the election to get Trump back in, then threatened to expose Trump if Trump didn't let Elon and his incel punks have free rein to steal data, cripple the government to please Putin, and destroy all obstacles to Elon getting/keeping lucrative contracts.

At this point, I believe the only Republicans who keep claiming Trump featuring in the Epstein materials is a "nonissue" are those who have seen his tiny mushroom penis themselves and think it's his only viable defense against charges he could rape anyone.

Still processing Burns' American Revolution. For years, most Americans suffered under George III, but he didn't hold a candle to Trump in stupidity, greed, cruelty, hatred and incompetence. No wonder the world is aghast that we've not only tolerated Trump, but let him RETURN to do even worse to us.

Ken Burns' American Revolution: After the war, 60K loyalists and 15K slaves emigrated to other countries to escape persecution by US patriots. Similarly, when Trump dies, his cult could be forced to renounce MAGA or be deported in a swap for our innocent immigrants now in hellhole countries.

FFS, of COURSE it's not legal!! Trump's sinking random boats and killing people because he "thinks" they have drugs. Other countries should be clamoring for Trump to be put on trial at the Hague, not just withholding intelligence. Why the FUCK is this a gray area?

I'm old enough to remember when the press was losing its shit over Joe Biden sniffing women's shampoo.

Ooh, plot twist! Trump threatens MTG with blabbing she was the pipe bomber at the DNC and RNC on Jan. 5 on his orders (he'll claim the order was a legal "official act" because he was prez). That gets her arrested for carrying it out, and silenced about Epstein, so she resigns instead.

What's going on here is obvious. Trump's poll numbers are so bad, his handlers are showing them to him upside down on every measure. He's just get his voice back from his last tantrum, which terrified them, so they're telling him up is down and black is white about EVERYTHING. They know he's nuts.

COVID Revelation: After having about 8 Pfizer boosters that ALWAYS made me feverish, achy, and useless the entire next day, yesterday I got a Moderna booster to see if I'd react better. Today, my nose is running like there's a faucet on my face, but otherwise I feel fine. Yippee!!

Marjorie Taylor-Greene really needs to have her inner pendulum checked. These days, she's suddenly making SO much sense (and making herself the first rat to desert the sinking MAGA ship in Congress), she sounds almost as unbelievable as she did when she was ranting about Jewish space lasers.

Trump showed up hoarse at a press conference this week and said it was from yelling at "stupid" people around him, but didn't say why he was screaming. I hope somebody recorded it, and the recording leaks out. I bet it was about Epstein and includes the din of smashing plates and ketchup bottles.

If Democrats ever embraced the retaliatory example of MBS that Trump loves so much, he and JD, his cabinet, and his cult would be extinct, slightly more than half of Congress vacant, and SCOTUS would have 6 open seats to fill.

Wow, what a sheer delight to come across these lovely flowers that perfectly complement our bouquet on this gloomy day. We must add them. Thank you, @ellissa.bsky.social!

Dick Cheney's dead and I'll never regret feeling glad he's off the planet. Liz Cheney, who sadly lost a dad (I have too; it's tough), eulogized seeing angels in the sky the night before Dick died, but I think from a distance, in the dark, hell's gargoyles and angels could look similar.

What I love most about the empty bloviating about MAGAs' healthcare plan is the secrecy. Can't let a single wonderful detail slip because it's not like they'll ever need people to buy into the concept or anything. They just plan to impose it on the marketplace like sharia law, I guess.

Sounds like Trump and MBS have reached a brilliant deal where the Saudis use our own planes to hit every capitol building in the contiguous 48 United States. Trump's demented "thinking" is that if he can't bully every state into full submission, he might was well blow them all up.

By calling for prosecution of members of Congress who urged the armed forces to uphold their oath to the Constitution, Trump flagrantly outs himself as the seditionist and traitor who deserves a trial and the maximum punishment because he's supposed to be the fucking PRESIDENT.

When Trump brays that Epstein, who Trump now claims he barely knew, was always surrounded by Democrats, he doesn't realize he's also revealing: 1) He knew all about Epstein's social life, and 2) He must have been there to ID Epstein's guests. PS: Trump himself was a Democrat in those days.

Perfect world: Both houses of Congress UNANIMOUSLY (ex. for 1 sick pedo-lover) approve release of information and the president agrees, so federal marshals go to the current holder (DOJ) and seize the info for release as Congress wishes. Why can't that happen? They just tell Bondi, "Fuck. Off."

Speaker Mike Johnson shut down the House (w/full pay and benefits) for 7 weeks, basically STEALING millions from taxpayers, and for NOTHING because his party voted against his wishes en masse. We should be screaming to have Mike Johnson removed NOW. He's waste, fraud, and abuse personified.

This idea makes me very, very happy. Trump and his whole rotten, greedy family should be pariahs in every country that places any value on integrity and decency, to set an example for the U.S., which has lost its basic values.

Jennifer Kiggans (R-VA) is saying the right things now to save her own hide. She knows Elaine Luria (D-VA), who got punished for serving on the 1/6 Committee, is emerging again to reclaim the House seat she lost to Kiggans in '24, and this time Luria will prevail because Virginia is sick of MAGA.

A poster boy for "self defense" my ass. Kyle Rittenhouse needs to go to school, learn a trade, get a job that doesn't involve murder, and STFU about politics. He's a nobody whose worthless opinions nobody needs to hear for the rest of his life, which he's very lucky not to be spending in prison.

Every day, Trump churns out more proof that he's living in a demented world of delusion and should be immediately removed because he doesn't have a fucking clue what's really going on with the country, yet we let him remain to continue his destruction. It's like we have a death wish.

Here I am, doing my daily Bluesky scrolling, looking for news that Trump fell down or is trying to hide new bruises, more swelling, fatter cankles, face melting, diaper overflows, catheter silhouettes in his pants, ANYTHING to give me hope that he's one day closer to his end.
