The way to convince the “me me me” MAGAts to support universal healthcare isn’t to sell them on abstractions such as better health outcomes, it’s to tell them that their healthcare is no longer tied to their employer and a job they might hate Then it’s all about their needs, not “those other people”

From the WSJ: “Trump Ramps Up Bid to Dismantle International Criminal Court” My take: Because of his Golf Course in the Irish Republic, which is part of the EU. He could be arrested there and taken to The Hague for a War Crimes trial, and the Irish would do it. They hate Trump too

We thought we were better than the Germans, “it could never happen here”. But it has, and a half-wit failure of a conman has dragged our country from the mythic “Shining City on the Hill” into a pestilential village adjacent to a landfill. There is a possibility of redemption, or is there?

This motherfucker wouldn’t last 20 minutes on any carrier including those turned into museums “USS Abraham Lincoln on Friday, saying the deployment was “not nearly long enough”” Those are the words of the commander in chief who couldn’t be bothered serve his country in uniform. Fuck him

This fucking Trump guy: “Sikorsky is paying for it and, you know why? Because they didn’t tell us how powerful these helicopters were and they felt a little guilty…” The H-3 “Sea King” has only been around since Eisenhower, and the aircraft every President since JFK has used them. Fucking Tool.

So Cornyn and Tillis fell for another lie. Of course the “slush fund” will happen. Trump lies, his minions lie and seeming the credulous idiots receiving $174,000/per annum in the Senate believe him/them. Fuck.

Thomas Massie is kind of a redneck asshole Freedom Caucus douchebag But If he ran as a Yellow Dog Democrat and won his house seat back, I wouldn’t cry. You’re not going to change the man but it would by god piss off Trump

John Roberts weak-ass denial and sickening attempt at gaining some kind of grace as they destroy democracy is completely obliterated by the fact that Roberts, Kavanaugh and Barrett all wrote briefs/supported the overturning of the 2000 election in Miami, in a rather full throated manner. Fuck him

It was, as the MAGA cultists say, “a false flag operation” Yes, I DO believe that •poll numbers down •his war going into the dumper •some republicans leaving him •SCOTUS probably ruling for the 14th amendment He is a master of disinformation and chaos

The University of Iowa has a new pedagogy: The Center for Intellectual Freedom. Looking at the courses they’re offering it’s no wonder the enrollment is low. The mission seems Orwellian, but then it’s associated with Christopher Rufo, the man offended by clean water. apple.news/AeqaB87VxS5u...

I just want to know, what’s the status of the sneakers, the phone, the watch, the RX “plan” and a few other of the egregiously stupid grifts? Are there actually people with the sneakers? The watches? The phones? Here’s an EBay item description for a pair of the sneakers, selling price? $2000

A Democratic representative from Georgia, David Scott, sadly just passed away He was 80 Fucking 80 Were there no younger, competent, qualified Democrats in that district who could have been elected? Fucking 80 This shit is inexcusable. The love of power is a potent aphrodisiac. Fucking 80 JFC

It consistently amuses me that the one person who uses the sobriquet “Low IQ” about anyone who dares to disagree or speak poorly of him is probably the proud possessor of a sub-90 number “Often termed "low average," this range is sometimes referred to historically as "dullness," So yeah, checks 💥😂

Clarence Thomas made some kind of comments about progressivism that made headlines. Also none of the stupid motherfuckers who wrote that shit sat thru his confirmation because that’s all he ranted about. Anyone else recall the “high tech lynching” bullshit? For allowing that Shame on Biden

Read an article about the possibility of Fetterman pulling a “Ben Nighthorse Campbell” party switch I’ll walk the state of Pennsylvania to make sure that motherfucker goes down in flames at the polls Down. In. Motherfucking. Flames With those hoodies he always looks like an uncircumcised cock

Today’s humorous crash out by The Incontinent Orange Gasbag are the truth social posts taking the Greedy Grifter to task for his words about Pope Leo. They’re asking how come he’s changed. The answer is, he hasn’t, y’all just didn’t want to see the petty, vindictive idiot behind the curtain.

“Israel approves updated list of energy and infrastructure targets in Iran as contingency plan” Fucking whole fucking thing is a Netanyahoo joint with a compliant, duplicitous Toad for the assist in this travesty I have to wonder outside hard right circles in Israel how this is playing out there?

The serial Fabulist Felon says: “He then said that Iran has taken losses never seen “in the history of warfare” The good people of Dresden would like a word… The man has no knowledge of anything but bombast and grift

Some Palavi scion spoke at Clown-PAC the irony is beyond belief. Reza Palavi (his father?) ran an oppressive regime until thrown out by the Ayatollah Khomeni in 1979. The Iranis lived under the terror of the Savak, the Irani gestapo and they traded one oppressor for another they didn’t see at first

How you know this Maggot is bullshitting? It’s well-known he never pays for anything, ask the contractors who have done business with him. His miserliness is legendary. Trump imagines negotiation with Sharpie maker for $5 signature pens - The Washington Post

Well, we know he lies about everything (headline from WaPo) ““Trump says peace talks progressing as Iran officials deny negotiations ” “Trump says peace talks progressing as Iran officials deny negotiations”

apple.newsTrump says peace talks progressing as Iran officials deny negotiations — The Washington PostEgypt, Pakistan and Turkey have taken the lead in efforts to broker a peace deal between the United States and Iran, though conversations have been indirect thus far.

A Wall St Journal headline: ““U.S. Regulators Propose More Lenient Capital Rules for Big Banks” I think we’ve seen this movie before, and it never ends well, it doesn’t matter who is the producer, director or studio. The ending is always a Democrats cleaning up the multi-year recession/depression

apple.newsBig Banks Score Win Under New Plan to Loosen Capital Rules — The Wall Street JournalTrump officials say simplifying the rules, designed to help banks withstand financial strains, will boost lending and benefit the economy

The MAGATs beat their chests and cry “USA USA” and scream about “American Exceptionalism” like it’s some kind of shield against a world they don’t understand They’ll never get that “American Exceptionalism” existed because kindness and stability were the American Ethos. Well thats over with MAGA

All the bullshit surrounding the ousting of the Secretary for Hair and Makeup delineates all kinds of reasons that the Orange Anus pretended were causal: marital infidelity (ha!), self-aggrandizement (ha ha!), mismanagement (😂😂!), no it was because he didn’t get a “taste” of that $143 million

@colorado.gov if you release Tina Peters you might just as well buy a MAGA hat and start dating Lauren Boebert, because you have officially “jumped the shark” and shown a level of political cravenness that even guys like Clay Higgins have failed to show.

Write this down, I almost guarantee you that the Dear Leader will AGAIN try to award himself the Medal of Honor for the Iran war he started. It’s my #1 prediction right ahead of Barron Trump discovering that Bone Spurs are hereditary

Seriously, why the fuck do people (1) post shit on here behind a paywall and (2) turn off/limit comments on posts. Are you that lazy or so inarticulate that you can’t summarize the point of your thesis and about comments being off, why are you even here? Thank you.
