In about a year from now, somebody will total up the estimated number of people who died needlessly in order to give billionaires even more money through tax breaks at the expense of life-saving research, medical coverage, and various forms of emergency aid and relief.

David Hogg is a shallow jackass, and his appearance with Bill Maher proves it. We don’t need his adolescent garbage about young men “getting laid.” We don’t need his chaos and disrespect for experience. Time for his 15 minutes to be up.

There's approximately a 0% chance that this is accurate.

So, as it turns out, when a Cardinal becomes Pope, he chooses to be known by a completely different name. And everybody just respects it and calls him by that new name immediately. Amazing.

Jeff Bezos is a coward.

Remember how things were scarce during the pandemic? Strap in, because around May 10th, you'll be nostalgic for those days. fortune.com/article/huge...

Neither Donald Trump nor any of the clowns he has surrounded himself with are capable of addressing the escalating tensions between India and Pakistan. This is a potential nuclear flashpoint, and this administration is clueless.

Sigh.

The number of Boomers who are witnessing the systematic destruction of democracy and the post-WWII world order who rationalize it with "oh, well, we went through that too" is maddening. No, you didn't.

Read what he wrote. And then read it again.

So, my MAGA friends, are we still supportive of exercising our 2nd Amendment rights to resist a tyrannical government, or is that now not a thing?

The brutal attacks of the Trump administration and DOGE on federal programs, education, and public health demonstrate a complete contempt for anybody who is not immensely wealthy, and an abiding anger at anybody outside this tiny in-group actually enjoying anything or having a better life.

The people who are defying a court order to return a man deported to an El Salvadoran prison without due process should be held in contempt and deported to an El Salvadoran prison.

Making the Euro great again!

Watching the online firearms community wring their hands over impending ammunition tariffs is a trip, considering who most of them voted for.

White nationalists must be truly furious that the black guy did a much better job.

“OK, everyone - I just posted the battle plans on MySpace.”

With respect to the Trumpkins crowing about slightly lower inflation in February, one wonders if they noticed a trend over the past two years…

He’s going to burst a blood vessel.

Markets are up this morning. Probably time for him to say something stupid again.

Guys, it’s totally simple: When something good happens economically (like inflation easing slightly), it is Trump’s ‘genius’ at work. If something bad happens (DJIA losing 3k points in a month), it is obviously the ‘fallout from the Biden economy.’ They’ll say this as long as the rubes believe it.

Calling it “Starship” was clearly too optimistic. It really should be called “Blow Up In The Atmosphere Ship.”

I bet you could make a lot of money selling antacids on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange right now.

Anyone who has been in or observed first-hand an abusive relationship understands what happened in the Oval Office today.

Housing prices not doing well in the Find Out Belt.

It’s like they are rushing to do all the horrible things at once - as if they expect somebody to soon discover that they should not be in office in the first place…

As increasing numbers of Trump votes claim “we didn’t vote for this” when programs they depend upon are defunded and dismantled, and as disease surveillance collapses and the economy implodes, I will remind them that yes, you did vote for this. And we told you that you were voting for this.

Dear MAGA: Everything you need to survive the impending trade war with China is made in China. Take all the time you need to think about this.

The simple explanation for Elon Musk’s success is that he is what stupid people think a genius looks like.

Good thing Americans don't buy anything made with steel.

It is a grim irony that the same people who want to discriminate against others based on skin color elected an orange guy to the presidency.

If “jackassification” is not a word, I would like to suggest its creation.

If the Trumpkins can rename the Gulf of Mexico, can we just go ahead and rename red states and other geographical features? Or maybe we just wait for climate change to simply eliminate some of those places, like Louisiana. (Honestly, I'm shocked that this is still up on the NOAA web site.)

You all remember who purchased JD Vance, right? apnews.com/article/pari...

Donald’s “black friend” is at it again. www.cnn.com/2025/02/10/b...

It is exhausting standing by awaiting the inevitable colossal screwup by the Trumpkins that sends the economy into a tailspin (or an even greater catastrophe). At least Damocles knew that he sword was dangling above his head. So many Americans seem completely oblivious.

The MAGA people generally don’t understand that for most of them, this is what “great” will look like if the billionaires enact their policies and rob the federal treasury. (Clay County, Kentucky, c. 1905. University of Louisville Photo Archives)

“Making coal great again.”

The Dow is up. Why do you think the economy is going to have problems in near future? Answer:

The only people who will profit from the spasmodic economic policies of the Trump circus are those who sell ulcer medications to day traders.

I swear to God, TIME magazine, if you put that a**hole on the cover again, I am canceling my subscription.

This utter idiocy is how he ran the Trump Organization. This is precisely what those paying attention knew would happen. The trade war may be only the beginning.

Has Trump said anything stupid and racist about Mexicans flying airplanes after the Philadelphia medical flight crash?

It sure looks like Musk is intentionally degrading Starlink. 87 satellites deorbited in January alone is a lot. www.yahoo.com/tech/mass-re...

So, apparently all days or months formerly devoted to celebrating diversity will now be devoted to the egos of fragile, mediocre white men. Got it.

MAGA has a violent mindset: cause debilitating injury to your target and do it first. No ethics or empathy. We will continue to be victims if we think we can negotiate or that MAGA will follow rules. Find the pressure points and attack until they collapse. It is a survival situation for democracy.

I am beginning to see some people in the early stages of realizing that perhaps, in fact, Donald Trump is a dangerous nut job, and that this wasn’t just some left-wing disinformation campaign. And for those who don’t see it yet, you won’t have to wait long.

Hegseth will be so far over his head that he won’t even know the surface exists.

Elon would like you to know that it was a “Roman” salute, not a Nazi salute. This does not actually make it any better.

Imagine being a Capitol Police officer over the last 48 hours…
