Trump just celebrated Schumer's cave by pardoning 75+ co-conspirators including Rudy Giuliani, Mark Meadows, and Sidney Powell, for their efforts to overturn the 2020 election.

5/ Do they need their heads removed from their asses? Because I think a lot of people would volunteer to help with that. Two choices here, senators. Sprout a spine, or be forever defined as a worthless penny waiting for change. END

4/ Do they have someone pulling their strings? Is there a motivation greater than the will of the people they're supposed to represent? Is someone paying them to pull this shit? Have they ever read a history book? Have they seen how things work out historically for people who bow to fascists?

3/ Do they understand what winning looks like? Do they give a rat's ass that all Republicans do is lie and break promises? (That's quite literally all they do.) Do they think rewarding shitty behavior ever works? Have they ever raised kids? Did that work for them?

2/ Do they need to listen again to the cascading boos when Trump showed up at the Washington Commanders game tonight? Do they like being punched in the face by Republicans and thus are asking for the face-punching to please continue? Do they need to review the results of last Tuesday's election?

1/ Do the caving Democrats need to see a few more children being ripped from the arms of their parents? Do they need a few more specific examples of ACA premiums forcing people to drop insurance in order to eat? Do they need some additional polling showing how unpopular Trump is?

May shame follow them the rest of their lives and may they never know a moment’s peace. Jagoffs.

It's not in this article but the government asserts that the sandwich was thrown at "point blank range", which implies subway sandwiches have defined effective weapon ranges of varying lethality, and I would like to see the government's chart of these ranges.

I mean, maybe Marjorie Taylor Greene finally found a therapist she connects with and they've worked some stuff out?

Trump just defied two judges and took complete ownership of the SNAP emergency in a single post.

This is Chicago's Lakeview neighborhood on Oct 24th when we now know from video evidence that the ICE agents were laughing it up about throwing tear gas at residents:

"The Republican Party has created an entirely avoidable mess for itself. By taking a resolute stand in favor of making healthcare unobtainable for many Americans, and now threatening to starve children to achieve that perverse goal, they have made performative cruelty their political calling card."

this was incredibly important to ward off future fuckery

Fox News is really fun to watch tonight. All the hosts and guests have this queasy look, like they ate shrimp that had been sitting out for 2 weeks.

Perhaps major media outlets should pay attention to what happened tonight and recognize that bending the knee to Trump or pandering to a MAGA audience they’ll never win over is not the path forward, morally, journalistically or financially.

Border Patrol just grabbed a guy from a yard-work crew on my block and hauled him off. I was at least able to tell them to go fuck themselves. I encourage everyone who has the opportunity to do the same. No comfort for masked goons. May they never outlive the shame.

One month after lying about a link between Tylenol and autism, Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has now admitted there’s “not sufficient” evidence to support the medical nonsense he and Trump loudly promoted. My column on RFK Jr.'s dangerous lunacy: www.usatoday.com/story/opinio...

Can’t a recent widow slip into her leather pants and lovingly caress the hair of prince weirdo on stage without people getting all gossipy about it?

When affairs break up a marriage, it’s always the sofas that wind up getting hurt.

Trump’s Agriculture Secretary Rollins & Johnson called 42 million Americans losing SNAP benefits a “silver lining” because it sparked “a national conversation.” Imagine being so detached from hunger that you see families skipping meals as a PR opportunity.

Millions of people losing SNAP benefits and seeing their health insurance premiums skyrocket will be thrilled to see the Trump administration is laser-focused on…bombing Venezuela.

FOX NEWS: Two DEEP STATE federal judges halt the Trump administration's patriotic plan to starve millions of Americans

The rubber is about to meet the road on the government shutdown, and I don't think Republicans are prepared for the blowback.

Seconded! @markjacob.bsky.social, as always, is spot-on:

Top 10 Halloween Candy of 2025: 10) Suspicious apple 9) Hillshire Farm Ultra-Thin Honey Ham (9 oz.) 8) Soup bone 7) One broccoli floret 6) Circus peanut (actual nut) 5) Half Bit-O-Honey 4) Candy Corn (stepped on) 3) Labubu droppings 2) MAGA Nougat 1) Arby's Steak Nuggets

If I’m Tylenol, I would LOVE to get to the discovery phase and reveal the utter lunacy behind RFK Jr.’s claims.

the president has destroyed the east wing of the white house without so much as a word of input from anyone else to build a royal ballroom paid for with bribes

This is vomitous.

Sorry, did America run out of political candidates who DON'T have Nazi tattoos? Am I missing something here?

It's impossible to see this any other way.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 79th day out of the last 91. The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown. It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

If the purity test is "No Nazi tattoos, even if they were oopsies," I'm very OK with that purity test.

BREAKING: Maine Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Graham Platner has Nazi chest tattoo modified to look like more palatable "mildly Nazi-ish Labubu"

Added a "JK!" to it?

The West Wing is now just the Wing.

I'm not any kind of U.S. history buff, I don't know much about architecture and I've never given a lot of thought to historical preservation. But still, I find these images of the East Wing demolition to be viscerally gutting. I'm guessing a lot of other Americans are equally horrified.

House Speaker Mike Johnson, a noted Bible enthusiast, says ICE shooting a praying pastor with pepper balls is just fine. Is there a new version of the Bible that I missed? My column on the GOP’s faith-based hypocrisy: www.usatoday.com/story/opinio...

He gives $20 Billion of OUR dollars to bailout Argentina without consulting Congress or the American people. Does that seem like the actions of a KING to you? Join us & let him know just what you think about that this Saturday, 10/18 #NoThronesNoCrownsNO_KINGS 👑

These goons look more and more pathetic by the day. Y'all just dispatched three faux-tough-guy dudes to arrest a singing giraffe who did nothing wrong. Go home, look in the mirror, flex your muscles and feel like big boys, ya mopes.

WHO KEEPS PUTTING ALL THESE NAZIS IN MY DEFINITELY-NOT-A-BUNCH-OF-NAZIS PARTY?!?!

It seems the U.S. educational system at large hasn't been doing a good enough job instilling the fact that Hitler was the bad guy.

Pure propaganda and lies.

Supercut of comments from Republicans today alone about the No Kings rallies taking place this weekend. This has to be some of the worst, and most anti-American, coordinated messaging of all time.

This might sound controversial, but I’m on the side of those who consider it bad to shoot priests in the head with pepper balls. The Bible I’ve read sends a clear-as-day message that abducting a random person off the street would fall under the “sin” category. www.usatoday.com/story/opinio...

This isn’t creeping authoritarianism, it’s racehorse-quick. Anyone being silent or accommodating right now can refer to history books for a preview of how they’ll be remembered.

The “young” Republicans who are part of the racist, pro-Nazi text scandal are going to start squealing and pointing fingers and generally soiling their trousers so fast it will make heads spin, and then we’re going to learn that this nest of backstabbing loser-rats is considerably bigger. Just wait.

Again, it is a full-blown federal felony crime for anyone in the White House or Executive Office of the President to order tax investigations into anyone. And it's not just a crime to DO it, it's even a federal crime for an employee not to REPORT such an order to the Treasury Inspector General.

BREAKING: Friday night massacre underway at CDC. Doznes of "disease detectives," high-level scientists, entire Washington staff and editors of the MMWR (Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report) have all been RIFed and received the following notice:

They "unfired" the CDC employees when they figured out what a gigantic mistake that idiot Russell Vought had made. The Trump Administration is one idiot show after another. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/11/h...

This clip shows exactly how to handle an incessant liar no matter who the person is. I glowed inside when I saw and heard George cut him off, go to break, and leave him off.
