PRAYER TO THE SUN ABOVE THE CLOUDS Sun that givest all things birth, shine on everything on earth! If that's too much to demand, shine at least on this our land. If even that's too much for thee, shine at any rate on me. Piet Hein; Grooks

So many of our evil and unscrupulous politicians have ivy league educations, it leads me to wonder whether they cheated to gain their admissions or cheated to graduate. Perhaps they learned early on, or were taught, that evil ways can get them ahead.

Bottom line here. We were too timid to investigate and indict him.

The richer you are the greedier you become. Say it isn't so.

Graham was a key Ukraine advocate in our government that over time has proven itself to support Putin and Russia. Odd how Russia's enemies have a way of meeting their end. But I'm sure it was natural causes. Just a coincidence.

He'd be a disaster. Mother knows best.

So would it be better to have an evil smart guy or an evil dumb guy as our President? Just asking.

Drug plan costs for this next year have gone through the roof. Thanks republicans.

I hereby reject and repudiate the muslim brotherhood.

This is where republicans have led us. They overturned the tax system and other safeguards intended to control wealth inequality and now super rich oligarchs control our government and our lives. All aided by ignorant, deplorable white trash magas.

Typical trump: Destroying a public golf course for average folks and turning it into an elite country club course intended for the wealthy.

republicans lie because the truth would prove them to be cheaters, perverts and/or criminals.

Either trump has business dealings with Putin or Putin has kompromat on him. Pretty freakin' obvious and has been for some time.

Our legal system moves too slow to deal effectively with the rapid fire corruption occurring in this administration.

Question: If Russia has such an oil shortage with the Ukraine attacks on its refineries, how can it be selling oil to the US. Something is whacky here.

A third of Americans have suffered daily strategic behavior modification from right wing media, starting decades ago with Rush Limbaugh and continuing with Murdoch, Carlson, Hannity and others. It will take generations to undo the harm that's been done.

Republican hero.

This is essential. Pansy Dems must go.

Why Oh Why?

A sudden & steep decline:

Exactly. All on media ownership?

"Starve the beast" has been a republican strategy for decades. Spend all our resources on bullshit so none is left for the people. Wars are particularly effective at that which is why Rs they always start wars.

Hey MAGA dumbfucks: Why do you want to live in a Trump dictatorship instead of a democracy? How fucking dumb are you?

Correctomundo. Time to stock up the canned goods.

Scumbags still doing their worst.

It all started with corporations dumbing down and propagandizing the people to sell goods and merchandise they might not have wanted. It then evolved to dumbing down and propagandizing the people to elect government which would serve only corporate interests.

Most zillionaires have fucked over many people to get that wealth. They are just not nice people and only care about their own interests. Now that SCOTUS has given them the ability to buy our government we should expect the worst.

An idiot talking to morons.

Building codes exist to provide exiting, fire resistance and other requirements to protect building occupants. A licensed architect is liable for meeting these whether owner (trump?) tells him to violate them or not. Ballroom is an assembly occupancy and would have substantial code requirements.

Don't forget Pharma. Stay healthy and alive on subscription, but no actual cures.

Just remembering how the DOJ said they need to start indicting the lower echelon of J6 perpetrators and work up to the instigators, which they never had time to do. What a load of crap to get trump and the J6 planners off the hook. And this was the Dem's doing. Biden and Garland. Great job.

Welcome to the oligarchy. When SCOTUS gave money the rights of citizens, they destroyed our Democracy and made those of wealth our masters.

To all the Dem leaders who allowed trump and his republican traitors to get off the hook for their crimes, supposedly for the good of the nation, you are idiots and have screwed us all.

Exactly.

With this level of insanity and the lack of any guide rails, the concern over trump instigating a nuclear cataclysm is becoming very real.

As with the Survivor reality TV show, many Americans root for the nastiest, most evil contestant to win. Some sort of darkness within that manifests itself in reality TV and now politics.

Remember that the only civilian planes flying in US airspace on 9/12 were those evacuating Saudi Arabians out of the country. Most of the perpetrators were Saudis.

Reminder that in the aftermath of 9/11, Bush and other republican neocons exploited the tragedy to begin a war on Iraq, which country had nothing to do with 9/11, and which lasted 8 years killing hundreds of thousand of people including over 4,000 US troops. Evil then, evil now.

Not only has the American public been dumbed down, they've been acclimatized to criminal and immoral behavior. All this results in an environment conducive for republicans.

Funny how the policy to deport a few illegal immigrants who were rapists and murderers turned into the creation of a federal police force and attacks on citizen's voting rights and virtually all of our civil rights and liberties. Anyone think this wasn't strategized years ago to end our Democracy?

I'll say:

MAGA SCOTUS already evidenced their intent to overturn our constitutional democracy. But now, they want to drive a stake into the hearts of the American people by defacing our homeland foundational symbol, the White House, into the facade of a gold-encrusted palace for a criminal moronic emperor.

Five members of SCOTUS approve the destruction of the White House along with the Democracy it represents.

Billionaires, despite all their wealth and power, seem compelled to achieve additional wealth and power however they are able without a care for others or the infrastructure that provided for their success to begin with. Unalloyed and undistilled greed.

Verily, verily:

Our democracy is hanging by a thread. Strongly worded letters won't save it.

Two kinds of Dem politicians: Those who ignore the Rs turn to fascism and national domination, and those who think we need to fight for our democracy.
