Mike Johnson is probably waiting until one or two Democratic members of the House die before he opens it, so that the Epstein files can remain hidden.
The worst part of the Dodgers winning the World Series is that an organization that did not object to Trump’s fascist immigration policies, even when they affected its own fans, will be visiting the orange baboon in the White House again.
Nance Mace, who has not been at her job for weeks, yelled at airport police officers for not doing their job.
The one thing Trump didn’t lie about in his 60 Minutes interview, even though it was edited out: he is very happy with Bari Weiss.
I watched ‘The Return’ last night, a fantastic movie about Odysseus’s return to Ithaca. Slow and deliberate, with great acting by Ralph Fiennes and Juliette Binoche. Some very emotional scenes but all the time you’re waiting for the moment when Odysseus starts killing the suitors.
Louisiana congressman Clay Higgins disparaged SNAP recipients and suggested that they are drug addicts. Louisiana ranks #3 in the US in number of SNAP recipients. Your GOP at work.
When Trump says that he won’t run for a third term he means it, because he’ll create an excuse to cancel that election. The best hope for preserving democracy in the US is in his failing health.
The South Korean president who gave Trump a golden crown definitely knew Machiavelli’s description for Lorenzo De’ Medici II of gifts Prinnces tend to receive.
The reason why Trump doesn’t care about the senate filibuster is that he won’t have to deal with congress during his extended autocratic presidency beyond 2028.
After killing 300,000 people in Africa by closing down USAID Trump and the Republicans are now ready to starve 40 million Americans, 16 million of them children, by shutting down SNAP. Except for Trump all good Christians, mind you.
When Mike Johnson says ‘I haven’t talked with the president about it yet’ he really means ‘he hasn’t told me what to say yet.’ There has never been a more slavish weasel Speaker of the House.
Wow, Jack Smith threw a grenade at House Republicans that will probably keep those lazy fascists at home even longer.
Almost funny to hear Kash Patel say that in Trump’s America crime won’t be tolerated.
Hard to imagine that the timing of today’s announcement about the gambling scam is not related to the terrible press coverage Pam Bondi and Kash Patel have been receiving.
Whether he contributed to Tyler Skaggs’s death or not, it’s pretty clear that Mike Trout is a sick puppy.
Make that the East Wing.
The rule that there can be only one temporary appointment of a US Attorney in a district that Comey’s defense is appealing to was writtten by Samuel Alito in a previous life. It could sink both Comey’s and James’s prosecution.
Almost funny to hear Trump say that the construction of his ballroom will not affect the existing structure over images of the west wing wall of the White House being demolished.
Make no mistake about it, Trump called Putin to get instructions. He’s an idiot but more than a useful idiot, in fact he’s a Russian agent.
Has anybody ever asked Bari Weiss why she is considered to be biased?
Bessent, Vance, Trump, Rubio and Hegseth, five sleaze-bags behind the table.
It’s fucking insane that people who respect the constitution and the law are criminalized while a mob boss and his capos are sitting in the White House and the Department of Justice.
The Secretary of Defense who put top secret military information about an ongoing attack on Signal now throws the press out of the Pentagon because he worries about criticism and leaks.
Jack Smith speaks, and wow. It would have been great to watch him prosecute Trump.
