If Trump keeps taking bribes from other countries, we should change his title to POTUS - the Prostitute of the United States.
Happy Anniversary! 25 years ago today, the Supreme Court elected George Bush president (later, unofficial recounts showed that Gore would have won); the failson of former president Bush was happy to leave the boring presidenting to oil baron Dick Cheney, which ended with me getting sent to Iraq.

25 years ago today, SCOTUS elected George W Bush president of the United States by blocking completion of a voting canvass in Florida. A subsequent canvass by the Associated Press showed that Bush's rival, Al Gore, had won the race in Florida—and thus the contest for the presidency—by 700 votes.

The REASON one does not simply walk into Mordor is that no pedestrian traffic is allowed. One waits for the free public transportation.

Obama’s tan suit and Howard Dean’s ‘scream’ got days of wall‑to‑wall coverage. Now Trump’s ICE can drag a U.S. citizen nurse out of her car and it’s gone in a news cycle. That’s what happens when you let them flood the zone with shit instead of doing journalism.

Do your job "news" organizations!

WELKER: Lawmakers say the 2 men appeared to raise their arms potentially to surrender. Why did Admiral Bradley interpret these actions as anything other than them trying to survive?

That's a good plan. Trump should step down in favor of Jimmy Kimmel. If for no other reason, because Jimmy Kimmel does not clearly have dementia.

Grampy is sundowning.
Trump: We never had a president hosting the awards. If I cannot beat out Jimmy Kimmel in terms of talent, I don't think I should be president.

Trump just removed Martin Luther King Day and Juneteenth from the days you get free entry into national parks, and added his birthday.

Remember, MAGA gets cranky if you suggest Trump might be racist.
National parks add Trump's birthday to list of fee-free days and remove MLK Day, Juneteenth
The change to the schedule comes shortly after the Trump administration announced new fees for non-resident visitors.

According to a new study, members of Congressional leadership perform 47% better in stock market trades than their rank-and-file peers, thanks to access to nonpublic information.

Today would be a great day to ban ALL elected officials from trading stock, don't you think?

My Spotify Unwrapped list is empty because I know what they pay Joe Rogan to host his podcast and what they don’t pay the musicians who keep Spotify’s digital doors open.

The US government is summarily executing people on a weekly basis without telling the American people any of their names or presenting any proof of their guilt, for alleged crimes that do not carry the death penalty in the US.

Trump signed the Epstein Files Transparency Act, but not before demanding an investigation on any Democrat Epstein knew, abusing the provision about "open investigations."

But a Florida judge just used that law to unseal all the 2005-2007 grand jury material.

It turns out, when you mix the 2016 video of Pete Hegseth talking about troops not following unlawful orders with the recent Democratic PSA on the same subject, their message flows together pretty seamlessly.

“Running from Trump is how you lose. Running with Trump is how you win,” Van Epps said.

Running WITH Trump was how he took a strongly pro-Trump district (R+22), and scraped out an R+6 win (the closest a Democrat has come in this wildly gerrymandered district since 1982).

Marco Rubio posted this video of Trump dozing off during an afternoon meeting, while Little Marco actively tries to wake him up by gently massaging his prostate.

Are they tired of his angry tantrums when he's awake? Are they setting him up for a 25th Amendment removal?

Our Founding Fathers planned for a lot of contengencies as best they could.

But they didn't imagine that the plot to install a King would fail with Nixon, and Newt Gingrich would consider that to be a challenge, and immediately start recruiting a new type of Republican.
