"There comes a point where we have to start questioning whether or not he’s actually aware of what’s happening around him & the harm he’s doing. It’s similar to historical figures like Nero or Caligula. Their madness took over & they started doing wildly destructive things. Trump is in that place."
Simon Rosenberg on Trump’s no good, very bad year

I hope I am never so desperate that I beg, plead, prostrate myself, and extort people to get a prize given to them.
At this point I am honestly not sure why she got it, but that aside... how pathetic do you have to be?

A year ago all we heard about was the price of eggs. It’s still an issue: “The 0.7 percent jump in food prices from a month earlier was the largest one-month increase in grocery prices since October 2022. Compared with a year earlier food prices were up 3.1 percent.”

Opinion | Trump took the tea party’s racial resentment and made it MAGA
Philip Bump: President Trump said the civil rights movement led to white people being “very badly treated.” It is impossible to overstate how important this idea is to his politics.

If this nation can afford attacks on random targets for sport and a president who flies home to his resort each weekend, they can certainly afford to pay a bevy of editors to redact victims on the Epstein files.

I think it’s important to point out: ICE does NOT have the same authority as a police officer. They do NOT have the power to enforce laws, only to engage in their specific tasks.
IE: they don’t do traffic, etc. impeding traffic is not a penalty ICE can enforce against

While Stockman might be right about the credit card mumbo jumbo, neither "Keynesian deficits" nor "money-printing(which the Fed does not do) account for our economic woes. Bush inherited a budget surplus of $236 billion from Clinton in 2000. That turned into the Bush deficit of $413 billion in 2004

- file impeachment articles every day in the House
- withhold unanimous consent in the senate and filibuster every nominee

Weird how when Democrats do the thing Republicans are so good at - screaming in unison immediately across all media until their narrative dominates - it actually works. Oust Schumer, Jeffries, and every other motherfucker who doesn’t get on board. It shouldn’t have taken this many travesties.
There's honestly been some pretty good news coverage tonight on TV regarding today's events. It's not a coincidence.
Like half a dozen prominent Democrats finally came out this afternoon and said ICE is terrorist trash led by a secretary who should be impeached and it flipped the whole narrative.

I am impeaching Secretary Kristi Noem, who is an incompetent leader and a disgrace to our democracy.
She wreaked havoc in the Chicagoland area and has brought her reign of terror to Minneapolis. One of her rogue ICE agents shot and killed an innocent woman today. It must come to an end.

Both justices refused to recuse themselves from SCOTUS cases related to the January 6th plot.
