Wars are something Donald Trump is too cowardly to join and too stupid to stop.

This seems relevant now, for some reason...

Our assignment is to embarrass fascist hack and Trump-panderer Bari Weiss by making sure this segment, which she banned from airing, gets more views on YouTube than it would have gotten on CBS. #StreisandEffect

Reading all the commentary about Pam Bondi I thought, “She won’t be fired, she’s doing just what Trump wants.” Then it dawned on me that she’s also seen the un-redacted Epstein files, and has dirt on Trump and others. If she’s fired, it all comes out. Her job is probably safe.

Remember her name: Aliya Rahman Her testimony is everything and it deserves to be heard, by everyone. Decide for yourself. It’s powerful. It’s gut-wrenching. And no one should have to survive what she did. ICE MUST GO‼️

What are the chances that when Dems win the majority in the House, Johnson won’t swear in the incoming class and hand over the gavel? He stonewalled Rep. Grijalva for months to hide the the Epstein files. What will he do to hide ALL their shit and stop hearings and impeachments?

“When existential threat rises, the mind reshapes fear into something orderly and predictable. Imagined cognitive collapse turns a durable political force into a figure with an expiration date, someone whose influence appears destined to fade.” open.substack.com/pub/wendy664...

This also nicely explains why the conservative evangelical church’s embrace of Trump should never have been confusing or surprising. They never “abandoned” their morals. These ARE their morals.

@schumer.senate.gov Hey Chuck, when are you gonna call out the fascists from the Senate floor? Or put on a coat and get your ass out there and read them for filth from ground zero? Strongly worded letters and posting on social media won’t cut it. So lead, or if you’re too gutless, quit.

Everyone, please support this family. Get the word out. Senator, when are we going to see you on the floor of the Senate calling out the liars and their BS into the congressional record? When are our representatives going to show up and put their bodies between the citizens they represent and ICE?

ICE Deems Being In Privacy Of Own Home Obstruction Of Justice https://theonion.com/ice-deems-being-in-privacy-of-own-home-obstruction-of-justice/

I’m trying to tell my husband to stop arguing and talking any sense to these people. They have chosen their side. This guy sums it up pretty well too:

“it was just another fucked-up day in these United States of Brutal Fascism. the only thing surprising about the evil that went down in Minneapolis yesterday is that it didn’t happen sooner. for fuck’s sake, a federal judge warned us we were headed down this road.”

WATCH NOW: The full deposition of former Special Counsel Jack Smith released by the House Judiciary Committee

Everyone should take note of how it did not crumple at all. In a two or multi-car crash, Cybertruck forces everyone else's vehicles to absorb its energy, damage and injury. It's the ultimate Republican car.

The White House has been caught. The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims. In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.

Okay what the actual fuck this actually looks hilarious youtu.be/ZfNLApPCa8E

Justice Kavanaugh: “If the person is a U. S. citizen or otherwise lawfully in the United States, that individual will be free to go after the brief encounter.”

What a fucking G.

CBS News To See If 'Let Fascists Lie All They Want, Live!' Is Good Business Model www.wonkette.com/p/cbs-news-t... By Doktor Zoom @doktorzoom.bsky.social

In addition to all his other defects, he has a lifelong hearing problem; it appears he’s incapable of hearing the word “NO.”

Eliminating mail-in voting isn’t the goal of Trump’s attacks (that would be a bonus). It’s all a setup to sow doubt and give cover to the GOP when they refuse to certify the 2026 election and hand over the gavel when they get their asses handed to them. When that happens our democracy is truly over.

[writing the constitution] Benjamin Franklin: Write down "no dumb fucks as president" Alexander Hamilton: Stop saying that Benjamin Franklin: I'm tellin' you. You're gonna regret not writing that down

Using an image of the car of the only Mexican driver in Indy Car racing to promote a new DHS concentration camp? Purely a coincidence. www.espn.com/racing/story...

I made a video about how many times I've had to start my life over, a story that is familiar if you've been following my career for the last 25 years. Let's put it this way: When I went to college to plan my career, THE INTERNET DIDN'T EXIST YET. On YT: www.youtube.com/watch?v=TNzc...

They expect us to swallow this sudden “transparency” like it’s honesty—when it’s just the latest PR diaper strapped to a man who’s been leaking lies since the ‘70s. And why now? Because they thought they could “pivot.” open.substack.com/pub/jojofrom...

Looking forward to this Friday

History doesn’t repeat, but it does rhyme. “By the end of 1776, Virginia’s patriot assembly ordered deportation of all Scottish merchants, crippling the young state’s economy.”

This is a frightening, yet extremely important read. Aaron shared the gift link, so please take a look. It's important.

Come on! First Rand Paul became the voice of reason. Then Elon said something not evil. Then Josh Hawley made sense (once). Now I have to applaud Tucker Swanson McNear Carlson for eviscerating Ted Cruz? Goddammit! jojofromjerz.substack.com/p/cooking-cruz

Today they have crossed a deep red line. We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.

DHS admin says ICE agents and detainees without enough medication are sickly, and living in a shipping container beneath a roasting-hot poop cloud. What’s the endgame here? By @marciej.bsky.social www.wonkette.com/p/ice-agents...

I'm obsessed with this li'l hungry bub.

“The evidence wasn’t in a single stumble, but in the relentless parade of confusion, denial, and grandiosity. To pretend otherwise is to ignore what was plain for all to see: he’s not well. (Looking at you, Jake Tapper).” open.substack.com/pub/jojofrom...

Every time I think the NYT couldn’t sink any lower, they prove me wrong. It’s like rock bottom has a basement, and they went down there with a shovel.

This, from JG Ballard’s 2006 novel “Kingdom Come” (about a massive shopping mall in suburbia) is so prophetically on point it hurts

I miss the days when I could spot an article from The Onion just by reading the lede, without seeing the source. Poe’s Law is in full effect.

Come on @nytimes.com, in a 22 graf story about the MAGA freak out over Comey’s “86 47” post, no mention of the rank hypocrisy of their outrage, since “86 46” was a cottage industry during the Biden administration. NYT never fails to disappoint. www.msn.com/en-us/politi...

This is excellent, but I’d add they must pass the cat scan, i.e. my cat must like them, or at least be aloof. My wife was not nervous about meeting my mom, but terrified of meeting my cat. “I can fool your mom. I can’t fool a cat.”

🤣🤣🤣

And you thought maybe your local police would intervene on the side of due process, rule of law and the constitution?

Allow me to address the elephant in the room: The decades-long outsourcing of domestic manufacturing to China was not an insidious Chinese conspiracy for dominance but the greedy strategy of the American ruling class to explode its profit margins by exploiting global inequality.

Are Tests Biased Against Students Who Don’t Give A Shit

I love Wonkette. You won’t find prose like this in the NYT… “The Vatican’s seen sinners, but never the entire unholy buffet barfed up in one orange, self-obsessed, spray-tanned dumpster goblin.” open.substack.com/pub/jojofrom...
