Trump said of Ohio Senator Jon Husted, "I examined his ass." So that's what MAGA really means after all: "Make America Gay Again."

Trump envoy Steve Witkoff called Vkad Putin a "humanitarian." A humanitarian?? Putin launched an unprovoked attack on Ukraine, and continues to destroy infrastructure and kill civilians. The American Putin released had been living in Ukraine, was seized and tortured. Putin is no humanitarian.

Just saw a film of Donald Trump hugging Vivek Ramaswamy on the podium at a campaign rally. I can't help but wonder if--while standing behind Ramaswamy on the podium--Trump examined his ass.

Ramaswamy? Really??

Trump has helped Russia by waiving sanctions, denying Patriot Missiles and sometimes intelligence to Ukraine. Since Russia is aiding Iran in its war with the U.S., Trump--by siding Russia--is giving aid and comfort to Iran, the enemy. That is the very definiton of treason. Donald Trump is a traitor.

So-called "conservatives" claim "liberals" are "soft on crime." But the conservatives on the Supreme Court have given U.S. presidents immunity for crimes commited while in office. Talk about being soft on crime.

After campaigning with Ohio Senate candidate Jon Husted, Trump said "I examined his ass."

Some voters complain about how GOP policies are hurting them. Yet, when asked how they intend to vote they seem unsure. Many seem prepared to vote GOP again. I have no sympathy for those whose wounds are self-inflicted.

Some reporters say Texas voters are telling them they don't like Trump and don't like Paxton but they plan to vote for Paxton anyway because they refuse to vote for a Democrat.

Trump says Zelenskyy should "make a deal" to end the war with Russia. By "make a deal," Trump can only mean Ukraine should surrender to the Russian aggressor. Outrageous!

Donald Trump announced a suspension of attacks on diesel refineries by both Russia and Ukraine. Ukraine suspended attacks on Russian refineries for 3 days while Russian attacks on Ukraine continued. After 3 days, Ukraine resumed strikes on Russia. Trump concluded that Ukraine was the problem.

Adolf Hitler's propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels said "if you tell a lie often enough it becomes the truth." Donald Trump understands this implicitly, and lies with abandon. Sad to say, his MAGA minions are too dumb to know Trump is a liar. They swallow his lies and applaud him for lying to them.

Every word Trump said about Kansas candidate for U.S. Senate Adam Hamilton was a lie.

Contrary to what some have claimed on this platform, Jasmine Crockett has not specifically endorsed James Talarico.

At the Senate Judiciary Cmte hearing on former Special Counsel Jack Smith, Sen. John "I-Feel-like-throwing-up-in-my-mouth" Kennedy can be seen self-righteously holding up a sign falsely accusing Jack Smith of attending an Atlanta Hawks basketball game to collude with Fani Wills to frame Donald Trump

The Republican mid-term convention was aptly named a Trumpapa-Loser.

Secretary of War Pete Headshet has cut 20% of top military offhcers. Pete Headshet himself should be the first to go.

Secretary of War Pete Headshet says "no fatties." Has he seen Trump lately?

GOP Sen. Schmitt thought he'd caught Jack Smith in a lie, and called him a "dirtbag." Schmitt claimed Smith had gone to an Atlanta Hawks game in Georgia to collude with GA Prosecutor Fani Willis to try to nail Trump. But Smith had gone to a Hawkeyes game in MD. So Schmitt was the dirtbag after all.

Jack Smith: "Our investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in serious crimes against our nation ... rather than accept his defeat in the 2020 election, he engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results and prevent the lawful transfer of power"

Republicans choose Trump over truth.

GOP loyalty is to Trump, not the Constitution.

Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Cmte reveal themselves to be apologists for Trump's attempt to prevent the peaceful transfer of power and obstruction of justice in covering up his theft of classified documents. The GOP is now a rogue party in league with Trump. The whole world is watching!

LA Sen. John Kennedy told former Special Counsel Jack Smith that Smith's responses to his questions made him want to throw up into his mouth. If the Senator had indeed puked into his mouth that would would have resulted in more truth being in his mouth than has thus far been the case.

Kamala Harris should not run for president again.

I'm all for democracy but it isn't perfect. Democracy put Trump in the White House.

Trump is a tyrant.

Trump is a malignant narcissist. He says he is the greatest of all presidents and wants his face on Mount Rushmore.

Trump fills the air with lies while calling the truth "fake news." And some 36% of Americans believe him. It is Orwellian.

January 3, 2027 might see the end of American democracy. Trump and the GOP will have seized dicatorial powers, and there will be no way back from that. Lincoln once said that government of, by and for the people shall not perish from the Earth. He could not have foreseen Trump and his MAGA minions.

On January 3, 2027 House Speaker Johnson could refuse to seat Democrats elected to the House during the mid-terms. Johnson has already said he would not allow Dems to take the majority. And the Supreme Court might uphold his actions on grounds that the Constitution authorizes the Speaker to do so.

Trump bans CNN, MS NOW and Politico from the WH allegedly because they spread "fake news." But there's nothing more fake than what comes out of Trump's own fetid mouth.

Maybe Jeb Bush will run for president in '28, having once made a speech to an audience so stone silent he beseeched them to "please clap!"

Who runs for president after Trump? Probably Trump. Or "Little Marco" Rubio. Or maybe Pete Headshet. Or JD Vance. Which of them will be the Biggest Loser?

I don't watch "60 Minutes" anymore because of what Bari Weiss has done to it, including firing some fine correspondents.

Lyin' Donald Trump bemoans not being able to give himself the Medal of Honor. He deserves the Medal of Shame.

Susan Sarandon and others called for an Israeli cease fire in Gaza. But Hamas, who started the war, said that even if Israel ceases fire Hamas would not cease fire, declaring "This is just the beginning." Where is the balance on the part of those who condemn Israel but not Hamas for the violence?

Susan Sarandon lost me in 2016 when she wouldn't support Hillary Clinton for president, saying there's no difference between Hillary and Donald Trump. And as for Gaza, Sarandon should be more balanced. Hamas started that war, and the Palestinians have for decades waged genocide against the Jews.

It is remarkable that Trump rails about not receiving the Nobel Prize for Peace when he himself started a war with Iran. Trump is a madman, a malignant narcissist entirely out of touch with reality.

R.I.P. Shelley Fabares. She sang "Johnny Angel," one of my favorite golden oldies. btw: The next time you hear that song listen closely to the background vocals. They are enchanting.

Obama's JCPOA (Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action) kept Iran from having nuclear weapons. The IAEA, (International Atomic Energy Agency) found Iran in compliance. But Trump withdrew the U.S. from the Pact. Now he makes war with Iran seeking the compliance Obama had achieved with the JCPOA.

Asked whether U.S. naval deployment in the war in Iran has been too long Trump said "not nearly long enough." So much for "Support Our Troops."

Sen. Bill Cassidy caved. No balls.

The U.S.. should adopt "Proportional Representation" to replace the winner-take-all electoral system we have now.For example, if a political party wins 30% of votes in an election, that party wins 30% of the seats. As it is now, a party winning 51% wins 100% of seats. The rest remain unrepresented.

Dr. Fauci is a hero. Rand Paul and his GOP confederates--not to mention the FOXNoise crowd stinking up the gallery--are dicks. Fauci's quiet resistance to them was Shakespearean, exhibiting "patient merit of the unworthy" during his time before the Senate Committee.

I suspect one reason many people have an infavorable view of the Democratic Party is that they see Democrats as too weak to stand up to Trump and his MAGA GOP minions. But how are Dems supposed to stand up to Trump and the GOP, given that the latter have the majority in Congress and on the Court?

No sooner did I say Andy Pages should be dropped lower in the batting order than he hits his 17th homerun of the season. Well done, Andy!

Dodgers' Head Coach Dave Roberts should drop Andy Pages farther down in the batting order. Freddie Freeman makes more sense in the #2 slot.

Dodgers' head coach Dave Roberts has sometimes been replacing late inning relievers with two outs in the inning and bringing in new relievers to get the last out of the inning. Sometimes that makes sense. But sometimes the new reliever is cold and gives up runs that win the game for the other team.
