Suppose the bogus charge against Letitia James were true, and she claimed two primary residences on a tax return. It would have saved her a big old $50 a month. C'mon, people. Only Trumpublicans are THAT petty.

Franklin Roosevelt, January 1941: "As a nation, we may take pride in the fact that we are softhearted; but we cannot afford to be soft-headed."
Trumpublicans, 2025: Being softhearted is evil. Being soft-headed is a requirement of Trumpism.

Kristi Noem: Antifa is the most dangerous terrorist organization in America.
Congress: Really? Where is it located? Who are its leaders? What crimes has it committed?
Kristi: Sorry, gotta go. I have an extremely important imaginary meeting to attend. Also, I need more hair products.

The Lt. Gov. of Indiana has now deleted this post which confirmed that the Trump admin threatened to withhold federal funding from Indiana if they didn’t gerrymander.

If you voted for the Adjudicated Rapist in Chief, don't be so surprised that you're now getting fvcked.

Their closing message to Indiana: change your maps to artificially benefit the President's political party or 'roads will not be paved' as punishment.

They are openly saying this.

Who would want to live in a country that works like that?

Kilmar Abrego Garcia has FINALLY been released from false imprisonment — but I bet the Trump Regime will keep after him, possibly for stepping on a crack & breaking his mother's back. I'm sure Bondi, Habba, & Halligan are working on it. After a thorough discussion of hair care & mascara, of course.

It's a good thing that Karoline Leavitt's ostentatious cross doesn't get larger with every lie she tells, or she'd snap her own neck.

They've been routinely giving me cognitive assessments ever since I turned 70 — draw an analog clock time, point at a drawing of a camel, remember "Person woman man camera TV." NEVER ONCE has anyone said, "Not only do you pass, but also you've got the best cognition I've ever assessed."

I imagine the ghost of Caligula must be looking at Trump and saying, "Yay! I'm not the worst god-emperor in history any more!"

The Trump Regime plans to require all foreign tourists to *prove* that they have been Trump supporters for at least five years. Because in 5,000 years, no one has ever faked their history to please a tyrant.
I guarantee you an exception will be made for FIFA World Cup fans, players, coaches, and team officials. Bookmark it.

Ever since they began committing war crimes, the Trump Regime has been happy to show us video proof — UNTIL people began noticing, WAR CRIMES.
Gallego: "This administration, since they started striking these boats illegally, has been very happy to show their snuff films . Now suddenly they're willing to show the first hit but not the second. Why? ... they're afraid the public is going to see the military killed 2 men that had surrendered."

Hey, if any government official ever had a "slave mentality," it's Senator "Green Eggs and Ham." Who is about to get his way and destroy the Affordable Care Act. Yay for him???
Ted Cruz: "Jasmine Crockett said every Hispanic in Texas who voted for Trump has a slave mentality — Well, I happily voted for Trump"

Now, here's a thought: if I, born in Washington, DC, went abroad and while abroad voiced any criticism of the Convicted Felon in Chief, would I be allowed to come home again? Especially since I left Facebook on the day Facebook *decreed* that I be a follower of the Felon?
🇨🇦 If you are a Canadian who still wants to travel to the US, you may want to put that thought aside.
The US Thought Police want your social/personal history for the last five years.
If you have said anything against Felon 47 you might be banned or jailed.

US Tourism is dead.

This actually did happen. It was a "gotcha" question, but it leads us to ask why DHS Barbie wasn't *prepared* for potential gotcha questions. Is she really THAT stupid? Or is she too busy preparing her hair for her next cosplay?
Yeah, this happened.

8:20p, 12/11/25: Hubby took one look at the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' "creamsicle" uniforms (against the Falcons) and said, "We're gonna lose." (Those uniforms ARE the color of creamsicles. Someone needs to be shot at sunrise.)

It was the Dunning of times, it was the Kruger of times. It was the age of wisdom, it was the age of Trumpism. It was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of despicable lies. It was the knowledge of autumn under Trump, and the knowledge of the ice age of Trumpism to come.
It was the Dunning of tymes. It was the Kruger of tymes.

Senator Marshall does not seem to understand that when you break your leg, you don't want to shop around for the hospital with the most detailed bills. We already know that one aspirin will cost about $10-$20. It's called amortization.

Senator Marshall: We want health care to be affordable again!
Roger Marshall: "We want patients to become consumers again. We want patients to see what the actual prices are. We believe that if we would add the price tags to this bill, that it would save the country a trillion dollars a year."

The American people are begging their leaders to have the courage to stand up right now. When a president calls for executing elected officials, we must all speak out to defend our country and our freedoms. Read my full statement here:

OF COURSE Pam Bondi is throwing Kristi Noem under the bus! ICE Barbie is prettier than DOJ Barbie. How many Barbies does one king need? Only Pam — she hopes.

NBC News: "Before the 1st case against her was dismissed, [NY Attorney General Letitia] James pleaded not guilty to charges related to a mortgage on a Norfolk home. By declaring the home her 2nd residence, the Trump administration alleged, she saved roughly $50 a month on her mortgage payment."
