Yes its a real photo from today. He looks like a fucking idiot. Nobody will dare make fun of him though in the MSM.

Yet…Mike Dukakis was humiliated in 1988 for wearing a helmet in a tank, despite the fact he served in the U.S. Army (in Korea), unlike Cadet Bone Spurs. Amazing.

Trump’s Long-Term Damage The things we won’t be able to fix even if we wanted to.

Marcos Charles is the acting "executive associate director for ICE’s Enforcement and Removal Operations" and both claims it's untrue that ICE is just grabbing random people, AND tells a story about arresting a guy from Honduras after breaking down a door to find a guy who wasn't there.

The Trump administration said it plans to cancel the union contract that applies to about 47,000 Transportation Security Administration employees, claiming the agreement interferes with the agency’s security responsibilities.

The Sleeper Issue That Could Destroy the Economy Trump may have stopped threatening Jerome Powellβ€”but he’s still got designs to control the Fed.

"Countries with more independent central banks tend to have much better (i.e., lower) inflation outcomes." Gee, that's interesting. lnk.thebulwark.com/4iTaf6l

Well, I think that Trump’s dismal approval ratings and the Republican Party having no answers on health care and needing a big distraction as the deadline looms means it’s time for Trump to invade Venezuela.

Worst. Senate. Ever. Republican senators surrendered to Trump, and now they own this catastrophe.

Remember when the Senate was supposed to be jealous of its position as a part of the legislative branch, instead of an extension of the (Trump) presidency?

House Republicans are not serious about lowering costs and protecting health care.

Their latest proposal hikes premiums, provides fewer options, and attacks reproductive freedom.

It’s an insult to the American people, and I will be voting no.
