Mad King Donny's dementia controls his every word, thought and deed. It tells him the presidency is his magical superpower. As long as he has it, it will protect him from dying the same way it protects him from prison.

MAGAs have to call October 18 a "Hate America" rally because they would look absolutely ridiculous and humiliated calling it what it really is: "Down with MAGA, Nazis & Traitors for Trump."

If anyone needed a reminder that a bullet never touched Trump's right ear in Butler PA or anywhere else, this perfect photo of his perfect ear should do it, courtesy of TIME magazine, no less.

JoJoFromJerz @jojofromjerz.bsky.social · 14h

Donald Trump really really doesn’t like this photo, so whatever you do… don’t share it. He would HATE that. 😈

Would love to see the next Pentagon Petey press briefing empty except for one little unqualified OAN dipshit, so the question to be asked is: If Hegseth says something and nobody's there to hear it, was he so drunk he won't remember he said it when nobody reports on it?

Cats Working @catsworking.bsky.social · 12h

I would like to see Democrats putting forth bills daily to bring down Trump and all his henchmen. Doesn't matter if they get a vote or not. Just keep the issues under Republican noses constantly to remind them of their own corruption in tolerating traitors.

I don't think the Founders could even imagine that the American people would deliberately elect someone as thoroughly stupid, corrupt, incompetent, mentally and emotionally crippled, and purely evil as Donald Trump to be their leader because they'd never seen such a monster themselves.

Trump is pushing the country toward those "well-regulated militias" the Constitution mentions, with a massive armed guerilla response by citizens against ICE. If ICE rolls into a neighborhood knowing snipers in every window can/will blow their heads off, they'll back off.

We know what the Republican plan for health care is: Nobody gets it but THEM (with their cushy government benefits), and WE pay for it.

Mike Johnson can't fuck far enough off for telling this lie about MAGA "concern" about healthcare and remain in this galaxy.

Laurie Loves Data @laurelann.bsky.social · 1d

Mike Johnson on the GOP shutdown:

“Republicans are the ones concerned about healthcare. Republicans are the party working around the clock every day to fix healthcare.”

And he said it with a straight face!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

The fact that this lying, fawning, sniveling little pervert Johnson has the authority to keep 435 people from doing the work the people elected them to do is cause enough for an overhaul of our ENTIRE system when (not if, WHEN) the Trump regime is overthrown.

Bessent says the only way for people to have paychecks is for Trump to be king. His BS about a government is empty because if Trump is king, there is no government, just minions fulfilling whatever wish comes into King Donny I's addled head. Americans will not tolerate a tyrant.

Fuck you Bessent. We antifa will not live under your tyranny.

No kings. No crown. No facists.

Bessent: "No Kings means no paychecks. No paychecks and no government."

Those two should get a room instead of making out in public like that.

Cats Working @catsworking.bsky.social · 1d

Yes, that may have been the thinking. Or he sat on the umbrella in the car and broke it himself with his fat ass.

Cats Working @catsworking.bsky.social · 1d

We should all be carrying whistles and blow them whenever we see ICE gangs going after someone, or even just looking for people to attack and kidnap, so alert everyone nearby.

Charlie Wilde 🫧 @factsimile23.bsky.social · 1d

Cats Working @catsworking.bsky.social · 1d

I love this idea of the whistles, which have typically been the tool of police going after criminals. The whistle flips the script on ICE and makes them feel like the authorities are coming for THEM, so they scatter.

Cats Working @catsworking.bsky.social · 1d

Trump has unleashed armed gangs in our cities to terrorize and attack whoever they think they can kidnap and - be paid a bonus for dragging in? This nullifies the Trump regime's bullshit about criminal immigrants being a threat. THEY are lawless and unchecked and must be stopped.

Cats Working @catsworking.bsky.social · 1d

I love that his handlers gave Donny a broke-ass umbrella with one side collapsing and a rib sticking out. It complemented his cheap baggy suit.

Mike Johnson doesn't have a job. He shuttered his own workplace indefinitely and laid himself off, as well as all of his co-workers. He should not get a paycheck, just like any other laid-off federal worker whose services were deemed nonessential, as he declared the House's by closing it.

Cats Working @catsworking.bsky.social · 1d

Why the fuck can't Trump or his flunky work an umbrella? Don't they have the kind with a button to open AND close it? I expected to see it immediately pop shut when the flunky took it, but he pulled it into the plane still open.

Cats Working @catsworking.bsky.social · 1d

Trump needs a dentist as much as he needs a doctor. The spaces between his bottom teeth are black.

Cats Working @catsworking.bsky.social · 2d

When Trump croaks and JD's president, do you think he'll remove all that cheap plastic gold shit Trump's stuck all over the walls and woodwork, but then cram the Oval Office with couches until it looks like a furniture store showroom?

The Shallow State @ourshallowstate.bsky.social · 2d

Keep an eye on JD Vance - the least genuine person in the world. He knows truth about Trump's health and Walter Reed. After Kirk was killed, he extolled their friendship, skipped 9/11 ceremony to bring his body home. Today on Sunday shows, he spoke to the Insurrection Act.
He's preparing to ascend.

When you think about it, that IS his entire job. Trump ignores him and consults him on nothing. Other than breaking the occasional Senate tie, he's useless, worthless, friendless, and witless. When he's not pleasuring himself with the furniture, he seeks companionship with interviewers.

Cats Working @catsworking.bsky.social · 2d

Lying once was Trump's superpower. Lies are instinctive every time he opens his mouth, but now he's untethered from reality. He lives in some La-La-Land where Portland is boarded up and in flames and DC restaurants are always full because that's all people ever wanted to do but were too afraid.

Cats Working @catsworking.bsky.social · 2d

The resemblance is uncanny!

Cats Working @catsworking.bsky.social · 2d

Happened to me yesterday. Orange tabby Tater Tot settled into my clean laundry on the bed. I pulled away as many pieces as I could without disturbing her, playing some weird cat Jenga. She ended up napping on a week's worth of undies and socks.

Red is slightly out of our usual palette of pink and purple, but we haven't gathered any flowers for our feed bouquet in a while, so we'll happily add this perfect beauty. Thank you, @bookish33.bsky.social!

luscious bright red rose,
eyes closed, I inhale its scent,
narrowed eyes watch me

A vibrant red rose in full bloom takes center stage, surrounded by green leaves in a beautiful garden. In the background, a kitten peers curiously from behind the foliage.
