Weird. Rome has an American Pope and America has a Russian President.

Seniors won't complain if they miss a Social Security check, Lutnick says More than 70 million Americans get a Social Security benefit every month, and for many, those checks are their only income.

Lutnick says seniors won't mind if Social Security skips a check. Go ahead. FAFO a hole. Most of us grew up in an era with tear gas in the air. Let's get it on. www.axios.com/2025/03/21/s...

Native Americans are reportedly being detained and questioned by ICE. Apparently not being white is grounds to stop people and make them prove citizenship. And the ICE agents are apparently too poorly educated to know that Native Americans are citizens. www.cnn.com/2025/01/27/u....

Wait, Donald thinks it's *illegal* to choose not to buy a particular car? Bless his stupid little heart.

The Jan. 6 insurrection was real time, smashing glass, beating police, etc. This time it's slo-mo, but no less crazy: www.inquirer.com/politics/sec...

It's a simple concept and the only thing he retained from time at Wharton.

Trump thinks we have transgender mice because he doesn't understand what transgenic means.

Hegseth thinks we have gay aircraft because a pilot named his plane after his mother whose surname was Gay.

If you are an atheist, how can Donald Trump and his supporters not cause you to believe in demons?

Per Dr Atul Gawande, ex USAID: “All malaria supplies protecting 53 million people, mostly children, including bed nets, diagnostics, preventive drugs, and treatments – terminated.”
