When all this is over I am just waiting to hear those same enablers say “with the benefit of hindsight I would do things differently”, which we all know is not true. They are driven by self interest and if push came to shove would repeat their appalling behaviours in a nano second.

If Donald Trump is OK with Pam Bondi making him look *this* guilty, the Epstein Files must have lots of outrageously damning evidence about him.

ABC “News:” “Epstein files released so far show little to support allegations of previously unknown accomplices;” Dec. 20, ‘25. Shame on you, ABC. Time for a boycott - a massive one. We are talking about children here, folks.

How about we vow not to hand Putin over to an angry mob if he turns himself in to ICC The Hague?

The Guardian: “Trickle release of Epstein files on a Friday signals move to bury Trump ties;” Dec. 20, ‘25. Your Republican Party: Pedophile Protectors, Inc. Everyone with two neurons knows exactly why. 😡

Arrest Noem, Homan, Miller & Trump for starters.

🎯🎯🎯🎯

WaPo: “Coast Guard abruptly deletes swastika, noose entry from policy manual;” Dec 18, ‘25. The damage is done. No vulnerable population should ever trust them again…

The Hollywood Reporter: “FCC Chair Deflects Responsibility on Kimmel, Says Agency Is Not Independent;” Dec. 17, ‘25. Future Democratic Administration: remember this framework as you shutter (and shudder) Fox “News,” OANN, “News”max, Sinclair, The 700 Club, et. al.

McGovern: "When billionaire CEOs need something, Republicans move at lightning speed. But when it comes to working people needing affordable health care, suddenly the story changes. There's hand wringing and the money is gone. My friends, if you are ok with that, we do not share the same values."

WaPo: “She was MAGA’s favorite conspiracist. Then she dug into Charlie Kirk’s killing.;” Dec. 16, ‘25. “We’re seeing right-wing media at war with itself…..the future of this political movement is up for grabs.” Translation: next up to goad Dumb and Dumber?

That's the damned truth. No more fighting to elect people who want to compromise and reach across the aisle to people who hate Democracy and America.

What a vile, sleazy, poisonous cockroach that man currently inhabiting the White House is.

Nah, I think 30% approval is a floor because that’s how many disgusting Americans there are in the country.

We all can only hope. The depravity of the MAGA base knows no limits, equaled only by their gross ignorance and stupidity.

🚨The courage, the honor, the truth and candor missing from the U.S. government in this moment has one unadulterated Congressperson who is standing up to the lies: Senator Mark Kelly. Spread this message, this truth, this courage.

The Daily Beast: “White House Rages at MAGA Senator Over Anti-JD Vance Plot;” Dec. 16, ‘25. (Stop me if you’ve heard this one before…😈): You mean Joshy is planning to “run” for President? 😂😂😂 Let the J6 videos roll…. Endlessly.

With just 17 days until Obamacare tax credits expire, it’s now clear: Congress—and the country—are headed over the Obamacare cliff. Even if the House acts, the Senate won’t move in time. It’s outrageous that all members of Congress have great, taxpayer-funded healthcare! Screw regular Americans!!

Mixed results from obligatory discussions with MAGAt relatives over the weekend. Good news: they are feeling the pinch themselves now. They know worse is to come; and, seem to know who’s put them there. Bad news: the attitudes and beliefs which got us there haven’t changed one iota. Not one.

Once again doing all I can to not engage in this hideous news cycle except to say I'm sorry, everybody, we all deserve much better than this destabilization

The Sunday Spectacular. Another view of yesterday’s sunset in Chicago.

SO TRUE 👇👇

Rob Reiner was an American Icon who, through his art and activism, held a mirror up to American culture. His talent, humor, activism, and patriotism will be missed. Our heart breaks at the senseless loss of our friend.

I’m having a hard time comprehending the news about Rob Reiner. All I can articulate right now is how much I admired him, how much I enjoyed his work, and how thoroughly shocked I am hearing about what happened. My favorite superpower in any human is the art of storytelling. He was a master.

1000000000000%

NPR: “Trump administration announces $12 billion in one-time payments to farmers;” Dec. 10, ‘25. Farmers, who rail against welfare for others, continue to rake in their own. “I vote for Trump (against immigrants/Blacks/gays); he imposes tariffs; he bails me out.” See how that works?

NPR: “Backlash intensifies after Indiana Senate kills Trump’s mid-decade congressional redistricting push;” Dec. 13, ‘25. A Red State Begins to Reap What It Sowed. No, MAGA, you are not the good guys.

#Pinks I couldn’t agree more with Norway… and yet here we live! In this (temporary) new United Stated of America! #norwaygirlaroundtheworld

NPR: “Farmers welcome Trump's $12 billion aid package, say additional relief is needed;” Dec. 12, ‘25. This isn’t “aid;” so, call it what it is: Farmer Welfare. This for a population who voted 78% MAGA in ‘24. This, for a population who rails about welfare for everyone else, until it’s their turn.

Pro Publica: “Senator Endorses Discredited Doctor’s Book on a Chemical He Claims Treats Everything From Autism to Cancer;” Dec. 11, ‘25. Ron Johnson/MAGA: You go first. In large doses please.

HuffPost: “The Real Reason These Nativity Displays Bother MAGA Christians So Much;” Dec. 11, ‘25. Aw. Are the White Supremacist Fundamentalists upset - over the the truth? Happy Holidays! 😈

TIME: “…Trump delivers remarks…in Mt. Pocono, PA, Dec. 10, ‘25. “Trump…veered into another anti-immigration message…Addressing the roaring crowd. “Mt. Pocono…a mix of small-town charm and access to numerous resorts…” and, apparently, plenty of right-wing bigots. My tourist $ go elsewhere, PA.

WaPo: “Democrats, who once lambasted Trump on immigration, have grown quiet;” Dec. 8, ‘25. Palestinian Arabs in Dearborn, MI are apparently quite upset. You know, the group that vehemently vowed to punish Dems by voting FOR Trump or staying home in ‘24. So, what exactly do Dems “owe”you?

What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.” What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.” Funny how that works.

NYT: “Alina Habba, a Trump Loyalist, Resigns as New Jersey’s Top Prosecutor;” Dec. 8, ‘25. Another “perfect hire” (aka: Trump Hair/Lips) bites the dust.

CNN: “Trump is immune from accountability for boat strikes. What about everyone under him?;” Dec. 6, ‘25. A) Not sure The Hague is so sure about Trump’s total immunity: the entire world is not far-right crazed. B) Everyone under him is making their bed/placing their bets.

When I taught Civics, I used Supreme Court cases to trace our expansion of rights to demonstrate democratic values. If I were still teaching Civics today, I would need to place the concepts of 'precedent,' 'stare decisis,' and 'rule of law' in the trash bin. This SCOTUS is corrupt.

it is impossible to overstate the extent to which this country is now being run by people you would leave a party rather than talk to for five minutes

His feigned ignorance is disturbing. He definitely needs to be removed.

Black Friday deals been extending for days which means not enough consumers are spending money. Maybe corporations shouldn’t have donated to a president that ended up tanking the economy and increasing unemployment.

NPR: “Supreme Court lets Texas use gerrymandered map that could give GOP 5 more House seats;” Dec. 4, ‘25. To no one’s surprise, the Bought and Paid For Far-Right Majority has once again aided and abetted the most corrupt President in history. Blue States: rain gerrymandered horror in response.

Politico: “University of Alabama shutters Black, female student magazines;” Dec. 4, ‘25. To the Black/Female students of UA: remember that you are to: “listen to your opponents’ concerns,” and “work to educate them and find common ground.” Or… Tell them to eat rocks and go elsewhere. 🙄

Me too

CNN: “Trump formally pardons former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernández;” Dec. 2, ‘25. ….who was serving a 40+-year sentence for drug running. Did you forget that part, CNN??😡🤬
