The idea of a 5-time draft dodger and dunk tank drunk remaking our military in their own criminal image is infuriating. I've never been a cheerleader for America's military. But to the extent that personnel are professional and fulfill their oath of service, they deserve better leadership.

Weren’t we told there’s a million more files? Let’s see’em!

THIS IS THE WAY. “Sorry Grandpa, you’re gonna have to make more sense than that.” www.rawstory.com/trump-maduro...

Hey REPUBLICANS! 5 years ago this mook sent half-witted storm troopers to the Capitol and let them loot and crap on the floors and smear shit on the walls and hunt down GOPs and Dems alike for 3 HOURS, while he watched on TV in a secure White House. He's never had your backs. Why do you have his?

"of all the possible successors to Maduro, María Corina Machado should be, for Donny, the natural choice. she’s the one who’s most aligned to his worldview. installing her as his puppet would be the smoothest path to glomming Venezuela’s oil. "but no." MAGA: THIS loser is your strongman dictator?

Huh. The crowd did NOT go wild. You flip and you flop under the big white top As the long-legged ringmistress starts and stops But you know after all the act is wearing thin As the crowds grow uneasy and the booes begin —Jethro Tull, Sealion

Kind of a bummer, because we've built up some customer loyalty with Hilton. But I won't spend any more money on ICE enablers.

Well worth a listen, maybe two: The perception of Trump's strength, using tariffs and his raid on Venezuela as examples, with international relations professor Nicholas Grossman. (1/3) From THE DAILY BLAST, Jan 6, 2026 podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t... This material may be protected by copyright.

The 1st District, which Doug LaMalfa represented, is 2:1 Republican. LaMalfa just died. Governor Newsom: JOHNSON HIS REPLACEMENT! No special election until absolutely necessary!

No, Antifa didn't attack the Capitol on January 6th. No, the election wasn't stolen. No, the insurrectionists weren't tourists. No, the insurrectionists weren't treated unfairly. No, we're not going to forget & forgive. #ProudBlue #Pinks #NeverForgetJ6

ESPECIALLY don’t let them distract you from the EPSTEIN FILES!

Years ago, as people embraced a comet as ushering in an era of peace and plenty, Kurt Vonnegut wrote that its real message was, "Help is not on the way." During Trump's first term I realized no one was coming to our rescue the way we came to Europe's. Help was not on the way. But maybe now ... ? 🤞

I mean: We all fucking WATCHED as Trump wound up his minions and gave them their marching orders. IDK why there's this overwhelming pretense that we misunderstood what happened and "need more evidence." DONALD TRUMP CAUSED THE JANUARY 6 UPRISING. DONALD TRUMP SHOULD BE IN PRISON RIGHT NOW.

*rubbing forehead* Of course he did. People: Don't vote for politicians with dementia.

Rand is baffling the hell out of Fox News hosts—and me. 😵‍💫 Go, Rand!?!? 🤪 Keep speaking truth to Fox viewers! 😵

This is absolutely, 100% to be expected with Donald Trump in the White House. He longs for a return to pre-Women's Liberation, pre-Civil Rights, pre-renewable energy America, when a rich white man could take it for granted that all good things automatically accrued to him, without talent or effort.

Reposting again, in hopes that more people will spend some time with these images. If you're wondering how we wound up at war with Venezuela, with doubled and tripled health insurance premiums and a shattered social safety net, here it is: The day America began to die.

So now we've got War and Pestilence. What's next: Famine or, simply, Death? Well done, MAGA: And yes, you DID vote for this.

The way this goddamned country allows companies to punish customers ... 🤬 Like, it wasn't enough to triple the premiums; the company just had to clean out her checking account as a final "Fuck you."

In remembrance of those heroes who fought for democracy. 🇺🇸 There will be retribution when this nightmare is over. #Pinks #ProudBlue #J6 #Resist #BlueCrew

Someone ask Lil Stevie here to point out Venezuela on an unlabeled map. 🙄

Venezuela isn't about fentanyl or national security. It's about oil and Epstein.

Happy January 6th Eve, I guess. Five years ago, tens of thousands of MAGAs were ordered by Donald Trump to march on the Capitol. These weren't peaceful tourists. Tourists don't smear feces on the walls. It was not "a day of love," especially for cops, the Speaker or the VPOTUS ...

I guess that's better than being court-martialed but jeeziz these people are petty beyond belief!

Remember January 6, 2021? On the eve of the 5th anniversary, let us stroll through NPR’s 1/6 archive and recommit ourselves to bringing the perpetrators to justice. Including—ESPECIALLY—the dementia patient in the White House. And share the link widely.

FWIW Donald Trump really enjoyed fucking his friends’ wives, which is probably why he doesn’t have any friends anymore.

MAGA: I didn't vote for this! US: Yeah you did. US: Assholes.

Truest thing I've read so far today.

It takes one to know one, Elon.* (Aw look, he's wearing his Tesla t-shirt. Nice try Muskie; no one wants your crap cars anymore, no matter how hard you push the brand.) * I do not think Mamdani is a swindler.

This has certainly been the case over my lifetime (68 years in March).

Oh my god: "Florida prosecutors had plenty of evidence to support the girls’ stories, including ... dozens of message pads memos that said things like ... “Jane can come after soccer practice.” Ghislaine Maxwell's talents included sensing which girls ... jkbjournalist.substack.com/p/donald-tru...

SUCH a good epi, I listened to it twice: John and Jerry talk to author Noelle Cook about why women gravitate towards right-wing conspiracies. Spoiler alert: For COMMUNITY. Everyone knows Hillary Clinton's "basket of deplorables" speech. What nobody remembers ... www.youtube.com/@MissionImpl...

Check out the Answer Coalition website for a list of demonstrations all over the country, and a webinar later today! There are ways for anyone to get involved, and every action, no matter how small it may seem, contributes to the cause ✊❤️ www.answercoalition.org/venezuela

We should ALL be doing this. Including me. 😔

Reminder: “President Donald Trump signed an executive order that would curtail any state laws regulating AI, which basically means we’re all guinea pigs to this experimental technology.” The president of the United States is not on our side.

Right on! Who else is marching against Trump's hit on Venezuela?

It's said that Trump kidnapped Maduro for the Orinoco oil fields. (I've been saying it for months.) It's probably more complicated, having to do with Kissinger and petrodollars. Hard to get the public excited about that. But everybody understands sex crimes. RELEASE THE FUCKING EPSTEIN FILES.

Okay, this made MY head hurt a little. But read it anyway. It IS important. Hey MAGA: When you and/or your kids head South to fight Trump's own Forever War? You won't be fighting to Make America Great Again. You'll be protecting the Almighty Dollar.

Come ON, someone: Leak the files! Be the hero we need right now!

The emperor needs No-Doz: x.com/atrupar/stat...

Oh my GAWD: Last night's attack on Venezuela "is just a new dawn for the Western Hemisphere!” gloats former deputy national security advisor Victoria Coates. Good job, MAGA: Forever wars as far as the eye can see! www.rawstory.com/venezuela-26...

W👁️W! Not 12 hours since Trump kidnapped the Venezuelan president and already EGGS ARE CHEAPER! BEEF IS CHEAPER, too! So is GASOLINE! Down to HISTORIC LOWS! I can also hear LANDLORDS weeping as they LOWER RENT EVERYWHERE! THANK YOU DONALD for giving us what WE REALLY NEED: A NEW FOREVER WAR!

Three cheers for the New Republic, for reporting an obvious problem the MSM have thus far resolutely, politely ignored. newrepublic.com/article/2047...

Reminds me of the Eastern European bot farmer who was asked why he only did right-wing disinformation. He said he’d tried to do leftwing disinformation but within five minutes of posting a lie, liberals would debunk it and the thread would immediately die.

I suppose it was too much to ask for that Trump, Rubio and Hegseth had plans for the morning after in Venezuela. They must have hellacious hangovers this morning.

Well worth following The Contrarian’s posts about Venezuela, bearing in mind that it was FOUNDED by CONSERVATIVES. REAL conservatives. Which Trump and MAGA are not. Democrats, you have your assignment. We will repost you. Let’s get to work.

Facts about Trump and Epstein ARE continuing to pop up. Not to downplay the seriousness of the Maduro kidnapping, but try to spread around Epstein-related information as much as you do Venezuela news. Don’t let him think distraction works. bsky.app/profile/mjkw...
