A good friend knows all your best stories. A best friend helps you write them.

Trump sure has lost the Wall Street Journal. WSJ - The president’s attack on the Supreme Court “ugly even by Mr. Trump’s standards... He’s accusing them of betraying the U.S. at the behest of nefarious interests he didn’t identify, no doubt because they don’t exist.”

It remains astounding how unfaithfully the media covers Trump’s ramblings day to day. We’re a decade into this — and his rambling gets worse — and yet the coverage continues to portray his public appearances as if they’re coherent.

Trump says he’ll release government files on extraterrestrial life. Which means either: Either aliens don’t exist, or the paperwork is so bad it’s been stuck in interdepartmental review since the Cold War. If aliens have visited Earth, they probably left after seeing how long FOIA requests take.

Remember: no judge or jury has found these boats were trafficking drugs. We're simply taking Trump's word for it. He’s unilaterally acting as judge, jury, and executioner. This is a danger to us all. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/feb/17/us-military-boats-strikes

NEW — An obscure Navy contractor program is making Trump’s plans to quickly build out and supply immigrant concentration camps around the country a reality. Here I explain WEXMAC TITUS, an acronym you need to understand:

one of those things you need to watch if for no other reason than the trump administration doesn't want you to:

Shooting themselves in the proverbial foot hasn't been a problem for the orange idiot so far, so what could go wrong? <shakes head>

My English-Scots-Irish ancestors didn't die for multiculturalism; they killed for it. Killed Confederates who said shit exactly like this.

The Project 2025 author is using millions of dollars in USAID money for his own security detail. It is estimated that 762,000 people have *already died* as a result of Elon Musk and Russell Vought’s obscene murder of USAID, including more than 500,000 children. Vought is a mass murderer.

I mean there have been A LOT of crazy moments of Trump officials testifying before Congress over the years, but Attorney General Pam Bondi ranting about the stock market during a House Judiciary hearing - amidst questions about Epstein, ICE, and political prosecutions - has gotta make the Top 3.

Enten: "If Canadians really don't like Donald Trump, how do Americans feel about Canada? Well, they actually like Canada! ... even among Republicans, it's +30 ... Canada -- more popular than Donald Trump in Trump's own country"

We’re 3 days away from a DHS shutdown and Republicans have not gotten serious about negotiating a solution that reins in ICE and stops the violence. Democrats will not support a CR to extend the status quo.

Elite forces are very good at short, precise missions. The Arctic is very good at turning “short” into “indefinite” and “precise” into “good luck.” www.youtube.com/watch?v=YKci...

Super Bowl Sunday brought to you by the people who need their own halftime show. Who, by the way, are the same people who wanted their own water fountains.

CBP in the US better get their crap together or there’s gonna be tariffs!

Trumps new portrait

This sort of behaviour is exactly what a man his age with dementia would do. The long-time racism is coming out in full force; as is the plan.

The killings in the street…Attempted murders for “ramming agents”… Detention center deaths caused by disease… Lack of medical care…food…heat…water…toilets… “Threw himself at the wall”…rapes…beatings…pepper spraying… flash banging… The“less lethal” ammunition… Yes, we know enough.

Psalm 52:1 You think you are such a big, strong man! Why do you brag about the evil things you’ve done? You are a dishonor to God all the time. #ChristianMyAss

Criticizing a government isn’t the same as disrespecting a country. Loving a country includes being willing to question its leadership; especially when decisions affect people’s lives.

When diplomats stop pretending leverage isn’t the point, at least the conversation becomes honest. Pete Hoekstra did everyone in Canada that courtesy.

New #NORAD doctrine just dropped: • Shared command ❌ • Capability ❌ • Sovereignty ❌ ✔️ Buy the right aircraft or we’ll patrol your airspace for you. Thanks to Pete Hoekstra for finally saying the quiet part out loud. Alliances are strongest when they resemble sales funnels.

#Antifa, like #God, • has no physical address • issues no statements • cannot be subpoenaed • and is credited with outcomes it never claimed Faith-based entities are fascinating that way.

“There is a reason Carney’s speech lit such a fire: Carney was, himself, taking a risk. He was, himself, acting against self-interest. He was, himself, showing that he intended to do something more with his power than profit off it,” our columnist Ezra Klein writes.

Well, the man child certainly triggers easily when he sees real leadership.

Mike Johnson was covering up child rape a full year before Pam Bondi made it trendy.

Remember this: Your smile is your logo, Your personality is your business card, and The way you made them feel is your trademark.

No matter how long I live after we get through this dark chapter, I will never get over the immorality, the amorality, the corruption, the criminality and the cruelty in service to one of the worst humans to ever walk the earth.

That'll learn 'em

Red State Texas has 2.1M undocumented immigrants. Red State Florida has 1.6M. Blue State Minnesota only has 130,000. Don't let anyone tell you this is about undocumented immigrants!

Noticing a pattern. #Trump asks oil execs when they left #Venezuela. Answer: 2019 sanctions. Those #sanctions were imposed during Trump’s first term Meanwhile, the #Epstein files still aren’t fully released. Not a conspiracy. Just incentives.
