What do you get when you mix the best selling single of the king of pop with the lately departed queen of MAGA?

This is what we get: a parody of Billie Jean about #mtg #maga #marjorietaylorgreene 🎶🕺

It occurs to me that stupid people could just be people who haven't experienced enough past lives yet.

Time to remind ourselves, once again, how utterly insane it is that this central casting fascist dipshit is our Secretary of Defense.
Pete Hegseth announces that Trump will deploy 500 more National Guard troops to Washington, DC after today’s shooting

Such classic gaslighting it's an instructive moment. The question is not whether generic is better or worse, it's that a list with more expensive brand names is not the same as a list with cheaper generics. Perverting that truth into an attack on those calling it out is Manipulation 101.
Hassett: "On one of the Sunday shows, the anchor criticized the fact Walmart said the Thanksgiving dinner is cheaper by about $10. Then he said, 'Oh yeah, but they substituted generic stuff,' as if having a generic something is a crime for ordinary folks! It shows how out of touch these people are."

DOGE was a colossal data mining operation, and in that sense was a smashing success.

Inline with the whole vermin thing
Homeland Security is calling U.S. cities “sanctuary sewers.” The Trump regime wants Americans to hate other Americans. It’s deeply unpatriotic and must be stopped.

Now do fascism.
BREAKING: The House of Representatives voted 285–98 in favor of a resolution condemning socialism.

Eighty-six Democrats joined Republicans in supporting the measure, including House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries.

The president of the United States is a stochastic terrorist.
Remarkable: Rep Chrissy Houlahan, one of the Dems that Trump called for executing, tells me her office literally filled out a Capitol Police threat report that listed "the president" as the person making the threat.

It's at 9:20 on our pod. Much more like that here:

On a long walk with my dog this morning, we went past a cemetery.

Near the fence line was a grave with heart-shaped, black and purple balloons nestled among the flowers. Secured above the headstone, bright in the early morning light, were the metallic-foil, helium-filled numbers "2" and "9"

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.

If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

Unless you're directed by Trump to storm the US Capitol, in which case seditious behavior is pardoned.
Trump posts again about Democrats, saying their behavior is “punishable by DEATH!”

I can't stop thinking about how we live in a time when the President of the United States says "quiet, piggy" to a female reporter asking him a legitimate question. Then I think about how he's also vaporizing boat crews, striking deals with a bone saw maniac, indicting his political enemies, etc etc

As a long-time consumer of WW2 history, it's unfathomable to me how America decided to give fascism another whirl nine decades later. In a sane world, it would have been impossible to forget that lesson.

On this day in 2020, NY fraud investigators expanded their cases into Trump and the Trump Org, looking into tax write-offs on roughly $26 million in consulting fees. And America said relax, dude, it's not like they're making billions in opaque international money-laundering crypto ventures, sheesh

On this day in 1863, Abraham Lincoln delivered his Gettysburg Address, articulating the democratic vision in what is perhaps the greatest speech in US history.

Today, we get "Quiet, piggy"

I'm skeptical that the friends and relatives of 3000+ 9/11 victims and one dismembered journalist are quite as pleased as Donald fucking Trump in this regard, but what do I know
Trump: "Tonight I'm pleased to announce that we're taking our military cooperation to even greater heights by formally designating Saudi Arabia as a major non-NATO ally."
