Fine. Illegal aggression. Fine. War crimes. Fine. Kidnapping children fine. Destroying infrastructure. Fine. Threatening the security of all of Europe. Fine. All of it is fine. As usual with Trump, the criminals are protected, even advocated for. It's the victims who are condemned and abandoned.

BREAKING NYT: The Trump Justice Department is investigating whether the major television networks — ABC, CBS, CNN, NBC and Fox — violated federal antitrust laws when the group briefly suspended their pooled coverage of Trump, according to six people with knowledge of the department's action.

Tuned into #AT40 on the way home from the health club, just in time to hear Wink Martindale and "Run Joey Run." Got the icks, decided just to give this week's countdown a pass. (I was in 9th grade in Oct of 1975 & I barely remember that song, and I can't believe it made it all the way to number 4.)

Reasons to know Trump is lying: 1) He is communicating. 2) If data centers are a geographic benefit to communities, you can be sure they'd be siting and building them in affluent and politically connected environs. Curiously, they're dumped in poorer, less influential places. Go fucking figure.

"America and the rest of the world are now witnessing a public exhibition of narcissistic rage. Trump embarked on a war for personal glory, and what he got instead was ongoing humiliation. He clearly finds it all unbearable." I confess that I'm finding it rather unbearable, as well.

Dear Bill, No. No one is saying you “should’ve seen the future.” What we were all saying at the time is you should’ve studied his past. By confirming RFK Jr, you abandoned your oath as a doctor. Shame on you. Now just fucking own it. Don’t lie about it. Best, Your Former Congressional Colleague

Cowards blame others for the shit that they themselves have caused. Trump is a big, big coward.

Trump just blamed Biden for low weapons stockpiles, said he'll ask Putin if he's helping Iran target US troops but takes his word for it that he isn't, refused to say where the money he's pillaging from VZ is going, threw Bibi under the bus, & capped it off by snapping at a woman reporter Supercut:

one of the supposedly damning docs the White House released tonight says Russia tried to undermine BIDEN. Also says China "prefers that President Trump be defeated" but actually "Beijing did not intend to try to affect the election" (!)

What the actual fuck? Look, I'm sorry to keep saying this, but the president is clearly a dementia-ravaged necrotic husk of a man whose addled rants bear no actual resemblance to reality and I, for one, think that is concerning.

“The vehicle attempted to flee the scene and, fearing for public safety, an officer discharged his weapon.” Fleeing. The vehicle was driving away. That’s murder. A legal resident of the United States is now dead. The threat to public safety is ICE. It must be eliminated.

The White House was never supposed to be a palace. George Washington and architect James Hoban deliberately rejected the lavish style of European monarchies. Instead, they designed a President’s House that reflected the ideals of a republic: dignified, restrained, and accountable to the people.

An ungracious, narcissistic, bitter exit, which he begins by saying that the allegations against him are completely false - in effect calling his accusers liars - followed by ten more minutes of Trump-like paranoia about "them" Good luck getting this guy and his people on board against Collins.

That's it, dude. "Large forces" and the "corporate media" are to blame. I'm sure it has nothing to do with all the abusive, rapey, and mendacious Nazi stuff, you've been done in by the deep state and the press.🙄

BREAKING: Graham Platner drops out of the U.S. Senate race in Maine. Platner posted an 11-minute (!!) video to announce he’s dropping out, in which he blamed “large forces” and the “corporate media” for the very credible sexual assault allegations against him. Good riddance!

MecCoffee reposted

Platner's fall to earth had zero to do with his agenda and 100 percent due to the fact that he was an asshole, unfit for the Senate. But some idiots thought: hey, what we need is a Dem who looks and sounds like a Rogan listener...because that's what the media had been saying since 2024. No.

I wish just one NATO leader (or all of them) would say, "This is unacceptable. The US president has lost his mind. America come get your boy. He's broken and needs to be under a doctor's care back home." I wish someone would tell the damn truth about what's happening.

MecCoffee reposted

At NATO, Trump referred to the "Islamic Republic of Japan." He called President Zelensky President Putin. He also intensified the war with Iran by calling the Iranians "scum." If only there were a constitutional mechanism to remove a president unable to discharge the powers & duties of his office.

Look if you think it’s fine for Trump to corruptly get a red card revoked (or “suspended”) bc FIFA is already corrupt, maybe you understand the MAGA mindset better than you think. “All politicians are corrupt so it’s ok for Trump to be corrupt” is a very common maga rationalization

Take a breath. Now read it slowly. Move your lips as you read if it helps: 1) A Republican legislator broke with his party to demand information be made public about which rich and powerful men fucked children. 2) Republican allies spent $30 million to make him stop it. 3) Voters stopped him.

Giving Donald Trump and his kids immunity from any future audits from the IRS is like giving Jeffrey Epstein’s best friend a beauty pageant called ‘Miss Teen USA’ or TV show to a bankrupt mob money launderer so he could pretend to be a billionaire to folks who think Fox is news.

This is atrocious. Donald Trump’s former personal criminal defense lawyer, now serving as Acting Attorney General of the United States, signed a one-page document in which the United States government “RELEASES, WAIVES, ACQUITS, and FOREVER DISCHARGES” Donald Trump, his sons, his businesses,

When a federal agency tasked with protecting all Americans decides to mandate a specific religious worldview, it ceases to protect democracy and begins to threaten it.

When we took office, NYC had a $12B deficit. Today it’s zero. And we didn’t close that gap on the backs of working people. We closed it while funding parks, libraries, safer streets, & public housing. Call it Pothole Politics or Democratic Socialism: We are government that delivers for the people.

It’s actually very difficult to keep a distance from all this rather than be hardened to it — to remind yourself this man is a demented freak, that his followers are shitbird cultists, that his aims and the aims of his supporters are un-American and evil.
