Reminder: Trump raised tariffs on Brazil, pushing them to release Jair Bolsonaro, a fellow insurrectionist. Both Zuck and Musk titled the scales on their platforms to favor Jair’s son. So yeah, Trump and the Broligarchs were on the ballot. …and the Brazilian people told them to go to hell.

Gaslighting 101: The AG is literally calling us crazy for thinking Trump will use the levers of government power to overturn the results of an election, when he has a documented history of doing just that. That’s tyranny.

BASH: The worry is that we end up in a situation where President Trump tries to overturn the election and the result of that could be like what we saw after January 6-- BLANCHE: Stop it! You gotta stop it with that! That's crazy BASH: This is a president who has a history

Trump went from packing arenas to being the punchline at intimate gatherings. I love this for him. Obama, no notes. 🔥

The guy who has sided with Vladimir Putin at every turn - over our intelligence agencies, over our military, over our allies - doesn’t get to tell you what it means to be American.

Siding with Putin should be a bridge too far for any patriotic American. As should supporting Bibi’s atrocities in Gaza. As should letting the oligarchs buy our federal government and prey on the working class. These aren’t policy differences. They are betrayals of our history and our values.

Billionaires didn’t prop up Trump for just a few years of fat contracts and get out jail free cards. Until they are put in check, their oligopolies broken up, their hold over state and federal governments shattered, our national nightmare will continue. Be single-minded in this pursuit.

Many years from now when Katie Zacharia gets comfortable speaking in public, using real words and stuff, some of you might regret being such critics on the first week of her first job.

Schmitt: Did you attend a concert wearing an anti-Trump shirt? Smith: I wore a “No Kings” shirt. It used to be a bipartisan American sentiment.

JUST IN: A federal judge just forced Trump’s DOJ to fast-track records involving Trump and the Epstein files, citing “possible questions about the government’s integrity that affect public confidence.” The records being sought are significant.

Let’s assume we had a windfall from tariffs (we don’t), there were trillions in committed investments (there aren’t), and we were not drowning in debt (we are), Trump still would not issue a $5,000 dividend (bribe). He’s a conman. His kink is getting you to fall for his BS over and over again.

2024 MAGA: We’re not a cult. We’re about America First, cheap energy & groceries, no wars, holding the Epstein class accountable… *Trump breaks all his promises, makes everything more expensive, runs up the national debt, starts new wars & protects the Epstein class 2026 MAGA: Ok, we’re a cult.

We lost Dolly and Gloria in back-to-back weeks. Meanwhile that fat Adderall snorting cheeseburger guzzling child rapist is still waddling around. There is no God and nobody can convince me otherwise.

Dolly was a beautiful soul, full of joy and compassion. Her aura was transcendent, soaring beyond partisan divides and petty differences. She was a beacon of hope in a bitter and cynical world. May her amazing life inspire all of us to be better humans.

Imagine being in so much debt you have to borrow more money just to cover the interest payments. You don’t even have to imagine it. You’re living in it. Thanks to Donald Trump and the GOP. America faces generational consequences for their corruption and reckless spending.

Trumplicans are bigly mad at John Ossoff for calling out the plain-as-day facts that their octogenarian authoritarian is too preoccupied building monuments to himself, lining his own pockets and traipsing around with his thirty-something diaper genie while the country falls apart at the seams…

Never forget… Donald Jezebel Trump 47th Commander in Chief Patron Saint of Pedophiles King of Crypto scams The MAGA alpha of beta imbeciles …hid himself in a catering cart from imaginary boogeymen

The message here is for establishment democrats: The electorate wants fighters. People unencumbered by big donors. People who will fight for the working class. People who will stand up to Trump and the oligarchs. Shape up or get out of the way.

Other than losing the executive and both branches of Congress, lousy messaging, uninspiring candidates, putting up zero fight against Trump and the oligarchs and taking gobs of AIPAC cash, I can’t think of any reasons to not get 100% behind establishment democrats.

Couldn’t have picked a worst time to have a completely inept and ineffective DNC.

Democratic National Committee is horribly struggling. Republican National Committee is sitting on nearly $130 million. While DNC is $2 million in debt. Bad management of DNC but also another sign that the energy in the Dem base is for change--not the establishment. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/26/u...

If you had told me a decade ago that one day we would discover a cabal of rich pedophiles who had preyed on hundreds if not thousands of girls on a private island and hardly anyone would be held accountable, I would’ve called you stone cold crazy. It turns out I was the crazy one.

ICE is a manifestation of Trump’s disdain for the rule of law. They are an ugly stain on our national consciousness. Every American should demand they be held accountable for their murder spree.
