Crass Effect

Exactly what we need in the absence of a functioning U.S. Department of Justice. An organization of ex-prosecutors and investigators who can put cases together for future prosecutors who will restore accountability for corrupt federal officials and those who benefit from that corruption.

This is just pure racism. Republicans objectively are campaigning on little more than bigotry.

Trump ran for president to give himself immunity from his many crimes, increase his net worth exponentially by obscenely profiting off the presidency, and ensure that he could get away with cheating on his taxes in the past, present and future. Oh, and to build a ballroom.

Words have consequences and the only way to stop these fuckers from spreading their fake news and outrageous lies is to sue the shit out of them.

There’s something seriously wrong with the president of the United States

Humiliating and dangerous: Trump has now finally just made America an ally of the Kremlin and is aiding Putin in his war against an American friend and partner. Shameful betrayal of a US friend, and pathetic submission to a US enemy. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/1...

Holy shit. Every single Democrat: This is the message. This right here. This is the whole ass pitch the voters in the weeks before the election.

And lying that he was in a hospital in Ohio for depression; I'd just like to ask, where's Mitch's cognitive tests?

GOP Rep. Tom Kean disappeared for 4 months & missed dozens of votes then finally surfaced, read a 5 minute speech saying he was at a mental health facility, refused to take questions from the press, and MAGA supports his reelection. But the Talarico hoax is career ending.

Chris Murphy: "Donald Trump was so fundamentally unprepared for this war that within days of the war starting, our billion dollar air bases and naval bases in the region were obliterated by the Iranians. Every single American should be furious about that."

Alarming — 🇺🇸 Senator @chrismurphyct.bsky.social denied access to military facilities in the Middle East: “Unprecedented. Hegseth is trying to cover up the extent of the damage from a war spiraling out of control. This should be unacceptable to everybody, Republican or Democrat.”

We didn’t learn anything from Covid. People are already confidently calling the plague a nothingburger. Sure, we have cipro and doxycycline. The obvious concern here is that this strain was modified to be antibiotic resistant or spread more easily. We simply don’t know yet.

The same Brendan Carr who wanted to investigate NBC because Kamala was on SNL? The same Brendan Carr who wanted to dismantle independent fact checking and accused them of being a “censorship cartel?” Periodic reminder that the corruption is a feature, not a bug.

I’d highly recommend that nobody download this app. At best, it’s unfiltered propaganda. At worst, it’s spyware.

They lied during their Senate confirmation hearings. They should be impeached; lying constitutes perjury and/or high crimes and misdemeanors.

And a malignant narcissist is a narcissist who ends up trying to destroy everything he hasn’t contributed to and isn’t entitled to. ht: @narceducator.bsky.social

In case anyone was wondering why Trump is pushing AI so hard and doesn’t want any government regulation.

His brain is completely broken. What the actual fuck is this nonsense

Obama: “Imagine if I had pulled Fox News’ credentials from the White House press corps. You’re laughing, but this is what’s happening. It’s unimaginable that the same parties that are silent right now would have tolerated behavior like that from me.” Clip courtesy @meidastouch.com

Hilarious!

👀👀👀👀 Karl Rove says he’s voting Democratic in Texas because the “GOP’s stables need cleaning” Yes. That Karl Rove.

The shit is about to hit the fan.

I still can’t believe that a nut job exclaimed, “They’re eating the cats, they’re eating the dogs” and millions of Americans said, “That’s the guy I want as president.”

They were spot on. This was The New York Times Sunday Opinion section on October 27, 2024.

Abdul El-Sayed: “Canadians are like the only people in the world who are going to preemptively apologize for something they didn't even do. So if you're starting a trade war with Canada, it's because you're the asshole.”

So much truth here! 😢

SHOUT-OUT to Political Cartoonist extraordinaire & Member of the Order of Canada Michael de Adder, who routinely does a far better job of holding this administration accountable than the corporate media. Thank you for your attention to his brilliant satirical wit! 🙏 (also: 🤣)

Fourteen years ago, HBO's 'The Newsroom' laid out the truth about voter ID in this segment. It’s striking how little the arguments — or the tactics — have changed. Still a solution in search of a problem. History doesn’t repeat itself — it gets rerun.

CARTOON OF THE DAY

This is where we are.

In case anyone still wonders how he went bankrupt six times.

“In other words, the U.S. government now spends more money just on interest on the debt that it does to fund the entire U.S. military or to provide health care for seniors.”👇

Sen. @ossoff.senate.gov on Navy sailors trying to jump ship due to horrific conditions: “We have to step back & recognize this entire war is based on lies... Iran still has uranium. Hormuz remains closed. A catastrophic failure by the commander in chief + his team.” (Follow: @acyn.bsky.social )

This is a solution in search of a problem that does not exist.

TALARICO: What they're doing in TX is they're redrawing the lines in middle of the decade, which is unprecedented. It's like changing rules after halftime bc you're worried the other team is going to win. It's cheating CHARLAMAGNE: More politicians should say that T: That they're cheating? C: Yes

The doctor who tried to save lives during Covid is being treated like a villain. The traitors who beat up cops at the Capitol on Jan. 6 are being treated like victims or heroes. It's American madness.

SHOUT OUT to Mike Luckovich: one of the all-time great political cartoonists. 🏆 With corporate media doing such a poor job in these most perilous of times, his work is more vital than ever! THANK YOU @mluckovich.bsky.social!!! 🙏

I Remember, Hope you do….

I worked for New York’s largest medical center at the start of the pandemic. There were morgue trucks on the streets. They set up emergency medical tents in Central Park. Healthcare worker colleagues died. It is horrific that RFK Jr is on national TV lying that ICUs were empty.

just incredible to watch the US president take Iran's side when my state's water systems are under cyberattack

Trump’s ICE raids have reduced the employment rate of US-born male workers, according to a new study. The study also found that employers have not increased wages to attract US workers. Hello? Not only is Trump’s deportation agenda patently cruel, it’s also terrible for the economy. Despicable.

It’s all the con. It’s all he’s ever been. He’s truly one of history’s most successful con men.

Oh how the cultists used to cheer at his campaign rallies when he said this.

😕

What election cheating looks like, it’s not the democrats, it’s not Obama, and it’s not Biden. It’s Donald J Trump. He lost the popular vote, he lost the electoral college, and he lost all his court challenges. We cannot let him try again, #ShutTrumpDownNow #DV1 #ProudBlue
