Tonight on #BillMaher: NEW RULE: if u help fascists distract the public w/bs rants about wokeness, legitimate fascists by playing pattycake w/them on ur show & lecture libs who don't break bread w/fascists, u have no right to express concern when your fascist buddies kill Americans in broad daylight

TITLE: 'Crown Our Prince' LOCATION: Minneapolis DATELINE: happier times (9/6/22) SETTING: a pristine fall day with warm temperatures, blue skies, and a president who respected the gravity of his decisions, appreciated the trust invested in him, and refused to use the Constitution as toilet paper

This.

Today was not a good day for bothsiders, non-voters, self-hating Democrats and other #MAGA apologists

photographed this in 2023 with the intention of posting it, but my better self won out. I strive to get along with others. I value positive vibes. But the state execution of VA ICU nurse Alex Pretti has rendered the kumbaya in my soul inappropriate at best, if not downright morally suspect.

#America wtf...seriously.. kinda predictable that they're killing innocents now tbh.. 🇺🇸😳 Humans never fucking learn... Pure fucking evil youtu.be/DZoiJLvk59o?... Watch this video. Nearly 54 years and still no justice.. stop fucking shooting each other. #GunControl ##GunControlNow #gunviolence 🔄

How does one maintain the spirit of Christmas while under the bootheel of Fascism?

Basic math (even for Trumpanzees): *Only 1 in 10,000 have serious adverse reactions to the COVID vaccine * The vaccinated are 74% less likely to die from COVID * COVID death rates in beet red counties have been 2-6X the rate of deaths in the bluest counties courtesy of @conormcl2025.bsky.social

"If a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lacking in daily food, and one of you says to them, 'Go in peace, be warmed and filled,' without giving them the things needed for the body, what good is that? So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead." -James 2:15-17

Welcome to the United States of the Irony-Impaired, where the staggeringly corrupt a$$hole at the top of this list based his first campaign on the assertion that his opponent was 'crooked' while he was a straight shooter who was too wealthy to be corrupted by The Swamp You can't fix stupid.

Behold the worst 'Christians' you've ever met in your life: *A trillion dollars in Medicaid cuts *Big cuts to Medicare, CHIP, ACA subsidies & SNAP benefits (vets included) *11 MILLION more Americans uninsured by 2034 'Christians' who voted for this are free to keep their heads in the sand

summertime lush

Careerist media charlatans (from elite backgrounds) love to paint Dems as 'out of touch' with 'real Americans,' even though Dems are the ONLY party who represents real Americans' interests. The blame for Trump? It's the bigotry & political illiteracy, stupid. www.rawstory.com/donald-trump...

Remember when Combover Caligula told us multiple times that COVID will 'go away by the summer' of 2020 (as the first of 1.4 million Americans were dying from it) and was such a narcissistic fool that he insisted on leading daily briefings about complex scientific subjects he had 0 understanding of?

Worse yet: tens of millions of women vote for their own (and their daughters,' and their granddaughters') oppression

...and the dopes who take Fox at face value wouldn't blink, even as they sat in front of the idiot box with their church clothes on* See: Sunday--the most hypocritical day of the week for RW evangelicals (*if they actually bothered to maintain the charade that they were 'practicing Christians')

Trump fought the law and the law won (p.s. all-star resisters below; follow them and meet many, many more where that came from)

damn straight.

Futurism: Elon Musk Accidentally Wasted a Vast Sum of Taxpayer Money Due to His Staggering Incompetence The skinny: projected DOGE savings ($150 billion) cost to rehire workers ($135 bil) lost due 2 IRS firings ($500 b) + lawsuit payouts tinyurl.com/ycx24rdm

Great people to meet #BlueCrew #FBRParty Right here below

...or how nice it would be to have a voting populace that EXPECTED presidents to be exceptional, as befits the most powerful person in the world

Irony of the day: the son of Donald Trump, Sr. and father of Eric Trump saying other people have 'bad genes'

You blew it, America

Fool me once, shame on you Fool me twice, shame on me Fool me three times, I have no shame.

#FAFO, April 14 edition 2024 election results, Alabama: Donald Trump 65% Kamala Harris 34% Popular Information headline: Trump administration cancels program to protect Alabamans from raw sewage tinyurl.com/56pbvh7r See: fundamentalism > steep learning curves

Key facts about Donald Trump's new best friend, Bill Maher: Connection to everyday people: 0 Knowledge of everyday peoples' lives: 0 Concern about everyday peoples' struggles: 0 Concern about mythical 'wokeness': extreme Net worth: $140 million & rising Self-regard: through the roof

"What do you have to lose?" asked Trump A: Our dignity, our respect abroad, trillions in taxpayer $ for tax cuts for the rich, Roe, 8 years during which we should have addressed climate change, voting rights, trillions of dollars in social services, 100s of 1000s due to pandemic mismanagement...

The Affordable Care Act turns 15 today. Thanks to Democrats (& only Democrats), tens of millions more Americans have coverage, costs have come down & pre-existing conditions are no longer financial death sentences. I dispelled GOP lies about the ACA here: tinyurl.com/bd7bfatf (Thank you, Obama!!)

Armchair liberals blame Democrats for the state of the States, but the reality is that we put up a great candidate w/sound messaging who ran a disciplined campaign that lost due to misogyny, racism, disinformation, low IQs, functional illiteracy, and stone cold ignorance Why dance around the truth?

Isn't it twisted how these purely performative Christian f!cks believe life begins at conception and ends at birth? Roughly one year ago I detailed the GOP Deadbeat Dad budget to come (if Agent Orange won) for RawStory. It is republished here on my blog: benbosophy.blogspot.com/2025/03/pro-...

A breath of fresh air just flipped a Delta jet over on the runway in Canada...

The road to hell is paved with the path of least resistance Kudos to the brave #Resisters building a road OUT of hell w/the Not My President's Day, No Kings on Presidents Day & No Kings Day protests, including: -The 50501 Movement -Bernie Sanders' Political Revolution -Amy Poehler's Smart Girls

Repugs failed to combat the AIDS crisis, deregulated S & Ls, lied us into a disastrous invasion of Iraq, let NOLA drown, ushered in the 2008 crash, botched the COVID pandemic & now this They claim government can't get anything right, then lead by example...over and over and over again

The move puts the security and integrity of elections in the U.S. — especially at the state level, where local election officials rely on CISA resources to securely run elections — at risk. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Trump ignores Rule Of Law, continues to handcuff NIH False premise: DEI & Wokeness are a threat to America Actually in jeopardy: research to combat cancer, heart disease, and strokes #MAGA response: *Crickets*
