Opinions about football (YNWA), golf, the entertainment industry, marketing (maybe) and the world at large are awesome. Unless you disagree. I love dogs too.

We have to think about collapsing Trump poll numbers and Rs turning on him the same way we'd think about finally being able to corner a rabid raccoon in your garage. Good news: he's out of options. Bad news: he's a rabid raccoon.

😳 Trump loses it and SNAPS at a string of reporters, says Ilhan Omar might "go to jail," calls Somalia "a shit house," and boasts that thanks to a new program he announced today Americans "will make millions of dollars by turning others in" during absolutely deranged Oval Office event Supercut:

Former White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel calls on Democratic lawmakers to set aside plans to impeach President Trump if they win a majority in the House, pushing them instead to pass an ethics reform package.

I for one think it’s bad that the president can just say crazy stuff all day every day and 99% of it doesn’t make the news because we’ve normalized having an insane president

Balint on Hegseth's obsession with testosterone and his attacks on women in combat: "I think it is indicative of the fact that there are so many people in this administration that have some weird, intense, homoerotic, feelings towards men while also being incredibly homophobic..."

Democrats need to stop panicking and pointing fingers at each other and start attacking the GOP for allowing Trump to use America like one big ATM for his corrupt family and billionaire buddies. This is simple.

Free idea for MS NOW: Offer Trump an hour live on the air to explain exactly how the 2020 election was stolen. He’d get that hour under the conditions that he appear alone and face questions. He could bring source materials. Trump wouldn't do it, of course, but his refusal would highlight his fraud.

Every Fox News live shot today from Trump's post-rapture-like fair on the National Mall has been hilarious. Here's a supercut:

“restoring faith that better is possible” is maybe the most important thing in politics right now outside of imposing consequences on the bad people (and imposing consequences would help restore faith) we have seen what cynical, “lol nothing matters” politics leads to and it leads to Donald Trump

My not-so-hot take is that what Mamdani is doing *IS* incrementalism, and the bar is so deeply in hell that a politician just doing *anything* good consistently is a total anomaly for people. And I think for now that is good and fine, because it is restoring people’s faith that better is possible.

Hmmm, perhaps those tapes from the cover up meeting in the Situation Room are quite damning to the most unlikable man in politics...

JD Vance: "I think Nixon's historical legacy is enjoying a bit of a renaissance, and deservedly so. I joked that if Watergate happened tomorrow, it would be like a 12 hours news story. The idea that it took down a presidency is crazy."

Zohran Mamdani and AOC aren’t the main reasons democratic socialists are getting elected. Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg, Donald Trump and Mike Johnson are the main reasons democratic socialists are getting elected. Eventually, people start to realize who’s keeping them poor.

If anyone cared about him, they'd remove him from the public eye immediately.

Q: Is the text of the agreement final? TRUMP: No, it's not final. It's a memorandum of understand, and if I don't like it, we'll go back to shooting at them, dropping bombs right smack in the middle of their head

You can't have a functional democracy when it's run by people who lie all the time. Which means you can't have a functional democracy run by Republicans.

No one cares

BARTIROMO: When you were in that hearing in DC, do you think that was the beginning of the plans to change your role? KRISTI NOEM: I know it seemed that way to the American public, but the president and I had been talking about it for about a week or two before that

Kamlager-Dove: We cannot have a president asleep on the job. Is he sleeping in classified briefings or on calls with foreign leaders? How can we trust a president who is literally asleep at the wheel?

President Trump has no public events on his schedule again today. That means it has now been one week since he has appeared publicly for anything besides a pre-taped interview. His last public event was his cabinet meeting last Wednesday, one day after his trip to Walter Reed.

This is encouraging. Shows that the ultra-wealthy see a threat of people realizing that it's the few thousand of them vs. the hundreds of millions of the rest of us.

Amazon executive chair Jeff Bezos accuses U.S. politicians of villainizing the ultra-wealthy and using tax policy as a political wedge issue to distract from bigger challenges facing the country.

Please send this message to Schumer and Jeffries. Call them. Keep calling all your reps and senators and ask them to impeach AND introduce legislation to dissolve this fund.

The best approach for democracy defenders is to bust our asses to win the midterms, despite Republican cheating, but be psychologically prepared to hit the streets if Trump’s emerging dictatorship refuses to accept the results. I increasingly think we’ll need a general strike to save our country.

Sure sounds like Trump is trying to make the White House into a fortress for when he refuses to leave office.

Trump: "Between the drone-proofing, missile-proofing, & drone capacity, we can have all sorts of military -- I hate to use the word snipers -- but we have great sniper capacity. It's built for our snipers, not enemy's snipers. And bc of the height we get a very clear view of everything all over DC."

Trump on saying he doesn't think about Americans' financial situation: "It's a perfect statement. I'll make it again. Everybody agrees."

This rivals 'gas prices are coming down' as most obvious lie told by the regime
