Strange how MAGA refused social distancing during lockdown but have no problem with it in 2036.

Thor Benson@thorbenson.bsky.social

Well how's he supposed to fill a venue in a Democratic stronghold like.... [checks notes]... Mississippi

Mike Rogers will never let you down because your expectations are so low. Also, because you’re a brain-dead cult follower. It’ll take some time, but start a running list: Release Epstein files; name & shame every ICE bully; start criminal investigations; chocolates & flowers to Canada

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

oh boy -- Natalie must've showed Trump clips from Obama's speeches

Why don’t you lead those troops, fat boy, and see the kind of welcome we give you.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

"I could set that up" -- Trump says he could "violate" Gov. Pritzker and send in the troops to Chicago

Is there a reason he can’t just say US?

The Washington Post@washingtonpost.com

French President Emmanuel Macron criticized foreign leaders he said were using France’s unrest for their own political purposes, rebuking politicians he said were making “stupid comments” and promoting a misinformed view.

Personally, I really liked the first book. Sure wish I could buy a pair of jeans that fit all of life's sizes.

Mrs. Betty Bowers@mrsbettybowers.bsky.social

Just for the record: I disavow the Muslim Brotherhood. And, if truth be known, I was never a huge fan of "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants" either.

The GOP needs to take a long, long vacation. We can't afford any more of their work.

The Washington Post@washingtonpost.com

Speaking at Vice President JD Vance’s rally in Michigan, House Republican Conference Chairwoman Lisa McClain (Michigan) delivered the party’s final argument to voters: that Americans should keep the GOP in power because the party has “more work to do.”

Given the “mushroom “ description, that act would be anatomically impossible.

Governor Newsom Press Office@govpressoffice.gov.ca.gov

Trump’s DOJ is now demanding CA election officials violate federal law. Screw yourself! This desperate, last minute attack on our elections will have NO impact on voters. We will continue to run free and fair elections.

She is a lawyer, Trump is a Rhodes Scholar and Melania is a polyglot.

The New York Times@nytimes.com

President Trump’s new press secretary, Katie Zacharia, describes herself as a lawyer, and the president called her “an attorney.” The New York Times was unable to find a law license for her. In an interview, she said the confusion is the result of a misunderstanding. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/14/u...

I’m tired of all the middle of the road Dems wanting to cross the aisle. Go scorched earth because that’s the only way you’ll earn their respect.

Agreed. The rest of the world mocks us for not having seen through this sad piece of garbage. And Biden was too boring?

CupcakeYOW@cupcakeyow.bsky.social

Putin doesn’t need to help Trump look like a clown - the ignoramus does that all on his own.

They’re too stupid to realize they’d be setting a precedent for Melania and Elon after midterms. 🍿

The Tennessee Holler @thetnholler.bsky.social

Make no mistake — they want to deport congresswoman @repilhan.bsky.social We are very far off the cliff. 🇺🇸 😳 www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

My mouth is watering already

Brian Tyler Cohen@briantylercohen.bsky.social

Steve Bannon issues warning to voters if they vote for Democrats in the midterms: “I think you’ll see Bobby Kennedy impeached, I’ll think you see Pete Hegseth impeached. I think you’ll see subpoenas flying every day. They will look to destroy Trump, and we’ll be bogged down for two years.”

You do realize that insane liar is a requirement of the position and specifically mentioned in her job description, right?

Mrs. Betty Bowers@mrsbettybowers.bsky.social

The current White House Press Secretary is an insane liar. Change my mind.

The letter reeks of smirk. Given his recent actions, who would believe he understood financial markets much less could tutor someone? Frankly, I'd be loathe to loan him a dime on a quarter gum ball with ten cents down.

Olga Nesterova@onestpress.onestnetwork.com

Just read it. Bessent wrote Warren a letter

Just wait and you can borrow the one they’re using for Mitch.

Aaron Black@aaronblack.bsky.social

Speaker Johnson, who said he’d take a blow torch to your healthcare is saying if Republicans lose the House he will leave and start a lawn business. Next week I’m going to donate a wheelbarrow to him, so his staff can wheel him out of DC.

Good thing I voted early, so I'm not tempted by that ginormous $90 Medicare deposit. Love money, but feel it was probably supposed to be used for something important ... then remember how the orange lackwit normally handles OPM.

Faint echoes of "I coulda been a contender" in the background.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Trump: "The United States of America, represented by me as your president, should have received the Nobel Peace Prize, but didn't. This is an indelible stain on the country of Norway. We will not forget, Norway." (note how tepid the crowd response is to this whining)

Come to Chicago and we’ll fix you in less time than that, you bloated, leaky, old fossil

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Trump: "We could fix Chicago in literally three, four weeks. We'd bring in the military."

So vision testing isn't included in ICE insurance plans?

The Washington Post@washingtonpost.com

Breaking news: ICE didn’t know a 5-year-old boy was in the car when an officer fired on Oscar Belgal, a Dominican man in New York, Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin said.

Some very strange abbreviations here. stfu about Jack Smith you old fossil and at least pretend to live in the now.

Ron Filipkowski@ronfilipkowski.bsky.social

Republicans always working hard to make things more affordable for Americans.

So no and no

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Q: You mentioned you want people like Elon Musk to come here, but he didn't build his companies overnight. So how do you decide who is the next Elon Musk? VANCE: One, does the person fill a position that simply cannot be filled by an American worker? Two, is this person a truly elite human being?

With fuel shortages, Iran should choose the closer Mar-a-Lago.

Raider@iwillnotbesilenced.bsky.social

Trump says Iran should attack American cities: “Let ‘em take out Los Angeles and San Diego. This is a very small price to pay."

I thought he was 100% against migrants.

Mrs. Betty Bowers@mrsbettybowers.bsky.social

Donald is so stupid he doesn't get the inconsistency between (1) claiming there were no empty seats; and (2) trying to explain away empty seats by claiming that people "migrated down." Because if there was room to accommodate all those migrating people, there was a lot of empty space in the venue.

We just came back from early voting. They saw daughter had requested mailed ballot (sent to school) & said make sure to destroy it. I said, don't worry, we only vote once - - we're not Republicans.

Favorite because he's the only one who would ever spend time with the nutjob.

Governor Newsom Press Office@govpressoffice.gov.ca.gov

The person who calls Black women “dogs” and “animals” is on Air Force One. But tune in Sunday to the national media asking democrats about Hasan Piker on every Sunday show.

Okay, I feel stupid now. Daughter came up from SIU to vote early, we all trooped to temporary early voting location ... and found they maintain different hrs than permanent early voting locations, meaning they were open for 3 hrs on Saturday morn. She'll try vote by mail with fingers crossed.

Good thing this household is voting early tomorrow. Daughter spent one day in transit from college and will spend the same time returning ... it's important enough that her voice be heard.

Cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs is at it again. Getting "almost" $100 ain't gonna do shit for my Medicare Part B premiums. Oh, but then I'll have all those other checks he's promised. And wtf with quotation marks all the time?

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Trump: My Administration will, immediately, begin sending 'Checks' of nearly $100 to over 20 MILLION wonderful Seniors to help pay for their Medicare Part B premium ... This money will come from the Medicare Improvement Fund, a pointless 'Slush Fund' that has only been used by Dumocrats ... "

Realistically, a half-eaten cheeseburger would easily beat him.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

"Voters have a regret or two, and we've seen this in poll after poll. The regret has grown since the beginning of Trump's presidency" -- Enten unpacks polling showing that Kamala Harris would easily beat Donald Trump if they were both on the ballot again next month

I'm in!

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Mike Johnson: "This will be a battle between whether or not we're gonna keep the republic, or we're gonna break this thing down and go down this dark, dangerous road to Marxism"

So the Go-Go's "Vacation" is the soundtrack of their lives?

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Mike Johnson on what Republicans will do if they hold the House: "What we would do in the next two years is exactly what we have been doing already"

If that $10,000 check is added to all the checks they're already waiting on from the administration, they're gonna be ... in exactly the same hellhole is before with higher electric rates, less water and a noise that'll make Amazon drones sound enticing.

Accept that Grampa had a new & captive audience for his ravings and wasn't gonna waste it on less-important topics. Hoax, hoax, hoax; stolen elections; highest numbers in polls; winning Iranian war; huge $$ streams from tariffs, those are his greatest hits.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Trump now says he didn't "talk much" with Xi about AI: "The US is not gonna be putting on brakes. When they want to put on brakes it's just like, you're all supposed to be dead now bc of global warming. It's like Russia Russia Russia hoax. Well, what they want to do is stop our progress."

Agree 100%! Can't wait until we vote them out, right?

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

JD Vance: "The message is don't give power to the crazy people who started these problems in the first place. If you're frustrated about high prices, you have every reason to be."

Which will lead Putin to striking militarily vital shopping centers.

MeidasTouch@meidastouch.com

Ukraine just hammered the Moscow region overnight in a massive long-range attack, striking strategically important oil and logistics targets.

I very much doubt there’s an official dress code for her position. It’s unlikely that she’d want a day off or choose to dress other than she does. She’s living a fantasy of serving someone who is not worthy

Schooley@schooley.bsky.social

She never gets a day off and is never allowed to wear pants and comfortable shoes.
