Memo to Orson Welles: "We've completed the casting for 'The Maleficent Blundersons."

Is Stephen Miller the real President these days?

When's the last time that fomenting regime change worked for the US?

Who's really taking us to war with Venezuela? And why? Does SecState Rubio agree with this policy? And comprehend the impact on US relations with the rest of Latin America? Or does he even care?

So will Donald Trump's Christmas present to America be a war with Venezuela?

With everything else going on, it still matters. For those who've been distracted in the hope that they would forget, it's spelled E-P-S-T-E-I-N.

Pam Bondi really should enroll at the Actors Studio.

Marco Rubio making a suck-up ass of himself in the Cabinet meeting.

Memo to @ms.now: John Kasich loving to hear himself bloviate is a waste of viewers' time.

Why aren't John Thune, John Barrasso, Mike Johnson, Steve Scalise, et al publicly outraged over the cushy Club Fed treatment accorded convicted sex trafficker Ghislane Maxwell? Is their silence a signal that they approve?

Never forget her.

Framing capitulation as a strategic win was a bad idea. Read the room and let it go.

Never forget who sold us out: Hassan King Cortez-Masto Shaheen Kaine Fetterman Durbin Rosen

There once was a Murrow. There once was a Cronkite. There once was a Rather. There once was a CBS News. Once.

As Trump begins to expand his enemies list, those in his inner circle should start to worry.

Conduct wholesale purges of generals and admirals. Conduct show trials of prominent government and political figures. Conduct dead-of-night kick-down-doors warrantless searches. Where? And when? USSR. 1930s. Yeah, good old Stalinist tyranny. The return engagement is your tax dollars at work.

10,000 US forces now supporting counter-narcotics operations in Caribbean

Speaker Mike Johnson is delaying the swearing in of a duĺy elected and certified congresswoman so he can protect a pedophile. His fellow Republicans' silence over this outrage signifies their support of his inaction--and the pedophile.

This is good and we should say so because every outlet that does the right thing and sees praise and support for doing so makes it easier for the next outlet to do the same.

"Just stopped by for a bite to eat." A through-the-window snap taken from about ten feet away at 10:36 a.m. PDT on October 10.

The Kimmel thing didn't fly. The Comey sham probably won't, either. In the meantime, Jeffrey Epstein still lurks out there, his onetime best friend hoping against hope that you won't notice.

Pete Hegseth is Gomer Pyle cosplaying Genghis khan.

Now you know just how Mickeymouse Disney really is.

Just think of what Paddy Chayefsky would have made of Brendan Carr.

Today's mantra: If it's Disney, it's dirty.

"Can we play now?"

Kash Patel is now sharing honors with RFK Jr as the poster children for the competency of the Trump Administration.

Thom Tillis has reverted to toady.

Marco Rubio is way in over his head at State. And as National Security Advisor? It's clear from his recent statements that he lacks basic strategic sense. He's been a highly oversold commodity his entire political career. And our foreign policy is now paying the due bill.

Matthew Dowd offered reasoned context. And got canned for it. By MSNBC. You wonder why we're in a mess? Fainthearted corporate media is at least partly to blame.

It *is* his signature.

So now Tulsi Gabbard has disclosed the name of an undercover CIA officer. What the hell else has to happen before the senators who confirmed her appointment as DNI call for her to resign? Or don't they give a damn about national security? Oh, wait a minute. They confirmed Hegseth, too, didn't they.

Is there a vaccine that wards off RFK Jr.?

Vice President JD Dunce is about to take his eighth vacation in seven months. On our dime. Maybe there's something wrong with this picture?

Where I sit at the computer...when she lets me.

It seems clear from this photo that Trump's gilt complex has motivated him to turn the White House into a brothel.

He can deploy troops to D.C., he can meet with Putin, he can get the government an extorted cut of sent-to-China chip revenue. But the Epstein files haven't gone anywhere. They're still where they were yesterday. And still sealed. He'd like to keep it that way. Does anyone really have to ask why?

Donald Trump has announced that Pram Blondie has taken command of the D.C. Metropolitan Police. What can possibly go wrong?

It's surely coincidental that Governor Grabbitt and Texas GOP lawmakers have created an issue that diverts media attention from the outrageously sleazy transfer of Donald Trump's child predator friend Ghislane Maxwell to cushy minimum security quarters in their state.

Robert F Kennedy Jr. Is an existential threat to American public health. Donald Trump knew that when he appointed him as HHS Secretary. So did the Republican senators who confirmed him. Let's not forget that last. It speaks to the GOP's utter moral rot.

It drives Jonathan Turley crazy when I remind everyone that he is just Mike Lindell with tenure. So, please make sure not to amplify this message.👇 Jonathan Turley is just Mike Lindell with tenure.

Trump's solution to a weak jobs report? Fire the Bureau of Labor Statistics commissioner. Tells you everything you need to know about him--well, except for his involvement with Jeffrey Epstein.

Watching Jonathan Capehart just tell--in a low-key polite tone--Jeff Bezos to shove it made my evening.

A $200 million gold-flecked White House ballroom? Really? Add frivolity to the narcissism, meanness, stupidity, nativism, arrogance, lawlessness, child predation, and megalomania that Trump considers his qualifications for the presidency. I'm sure that Mike Johnson and John Thune approve.

Women have committed suicide because of Ghislane Maxwell. No pardon, no commutation, no accommodation of any kind.

Mention "Epstein", and he's afraid. Very afraid.

Looking up at me from about 15 feet below the rear deck as I watered roses there this morning. She didn't spook, but instead remained there after I left.

The Republican Party has broken the United States.
