Please don't reply to my posts if you have issues with reading comprehension. I will not reply. Read a post. Read it again. Read from the beginning of the thread. Then think. Then respond, but only if you have something of substance to say. Otherwise, go fuck yourself.

Our current era will become known historically as The Age of Incompetence.

😬 Katie Zacharia's first press briefing was brutally bad 😬 Trump managed to find a press secretary who can barely read, but she does have the number one qualification -- looking like Ivanka Here's a supercut from Zacharia's first briefing, which made Karoline Leavitt seem like Ronald Reagan

The problem has never been that the poor want too much. The problem is that the rich can't get enough.

22 California billionaires have spent a combined $150 million so far to defeat Prop 40. By spending their fortunes trying to stop California from taxing billionaires, they're making the argument for a billionaire wealth tax more clearly and articulately than anyone else possibly could.

Zacharia: "I am looking forward to walking in & working for President Trump. This job is not about me, it's about him... his policies are the most effective, most exciting. He's the most energetic, intense president we've ever seen. When I was there yesterday he showed me where the ballroom will be"

I just got an email saying that someone was trying to log into my Twitter account. It's been suspended since 2021. I think this was the time I was banned for telling Lindsey Graham to punch himself in the face.

This the statement of an impotent fool.

Trump: "The White House considers anyone that uses the term, 'Artificial Intelligence,' as opposed to the highly accepted new and more accurate term, 'Super Intelligence,' THE ENEMY! President DONALD J. TRUMP"

When CEO's are making more than Major League Baseball players, there is a problem.

Microsoft has laid off over 5,000 workers since July. Its CEO made $96.5M in 2025, a 22% increase from the previous year. Microsoft made $101B in net income last year — and raked in up to $12.5B in tax breaks from Trump's Big Ugly Bill. This is what a rigged system looks like.

Pete Hegseth seems to be obsessed with dicks.

NEWS: The Pentagon has announced mandatory low-testosterone screenings for male troops 30 and older, including screening for symptoms such as “reduced libido, loss of spontaneous morning erections, erectile dysfunction,” and other symptoms.

I'm not sure anyone in history has so gleefully demonstrated their stupidity as this man.

Trump: "If I'm in an electric boat and I see I'm going down and the water is pouring in, so I know I'm going to be electrocuted, but 5 yards away there are sharks. Do I take the electrocution or do I go swimming with the sharks? I'll take the electrocution."

This is a weak, pathetic fraud. If my daughter went through what his did, her husband would need a restraining order from me and I would cut off anyone who supported him. Mr. I don't see this as political is acting like a bullshit politician.

Sen. Bernie Moreno on the allegations that his daughter and grandchild were horrifically abused by US Rep. Max Miller: "This is not a political thing. I don't see this through the lens of politics ... I hope he gets the help he needs."

This is me speaking as a Jew - fuck this guy. He cannot be majority leader in the next Senate.

“There’s no peace in the Middle East bc Palestinians refuse to believe in the Torah. The Torah says it’s our [Jews] land. And that’s why America must always stand with Israel.” Wow. He just came right out and said it. He really needs to step down

Seems to me that if we wisely pursued renewable energy to end our dependence on fossil fuels, we wouldn't have to deal with this bullshit. It would be an economic engine that could sustain us indefinitely and be amazing for national security.

Trump announces deal with Venezuela to secure more than 65 billion barrels of oil reserves www.cnbc.com/2026/08/28/t...

"It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of light, it was the season of darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair."

So Trump started a completely nonsensical and incoherent trade war with Canada to distract from the failure of his completely nonsensical and incoherent war in Iran, which he started to distract from the fact that he is covering up his involvement in a child rape ring. I hate this timeline.

Winning back the House and Senate would effectively neuter Trump for the remainder of his presidency. The fact that Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer don't grasp this is one of the many reasons they can't remain in leadership. They don't grasp the gravity of the situation.

This is treason. The President of the United States is a fucking traitor.

Trump allies himself w/Kim Jong Un against South Korea: “Based on my very good relationship w/Kim Jong Un, I am not happy that the US has agreed to Joint Military Exercises…I recently asked the President of SK if they would like to join us in the Denuclearization of Iran, & they said, ‘No thanks!’”
