Try to be brave.
Sandwich Guy’s hurl now joins (in my mind) the femur-bone-hurl that climaxes the opening scene of “2001: A Space Odyssey” — the ultimate symbol of the start of something Big.

Under the smug & incompetent military leadership of Trump and his cabinet it’s entirely possible Venezuela licks us.
Thanks! I always screw that up.

This pretty much summarizes the make America great again strategy: we (the super rich) use your (everyone else’s) tax money to make more money for us. If our self-dealing transactions with public assets go bad, you eat the losses.

I think this applies not just to elected officials who supposedly disobey him but to voters who failed to vote for him. Megalomania is…a mania.
Sen. Whitehouse, PLEASE push your party to spend heavily on TV ads explaining the Dem position — and to run these ads on Fox, on The Bachelor, on TikTok, on YouTube— as if we were in a presidential campaign. Do not depend on public support— build public support!

Why not just do it right— a military recruitment campaign to enforce ALL presidential executive orders, shoot up agency buildings like the CDC and the NIH, and restore the Confederacy to all its rights, including executing reparations for white slave owners’ descendants?

Oh.
I thought it might be the start of an “A.I.-is-amazing” campaign to justify things like this.
A.I. decisions on Medicare coverage is what he’s talking about. You could look it up. There was a story the other day. He may seem to be hallucinating, but he’s always pushing the Big Enshitification

The Education Department said it had found that Dr. Washington and his leadership team advanced an agenda of “antiracism,” which it said was unlawful.
If the awful Pres. AndrewJohnson hadn’t already done it, Trump would now be pardoning Jefferson Davis.
MAGA: “The Cracker Barrel makeover is another white man losing his job to the yellow-and-brown vibe..”
NORMAL PERSON: “What?”
MAGA: “How much of this pain must we endure before we round up EVERYONE who says ‘What?’ after we explain a conspiracy to them?”
NORMIE: “Huh?”

Not enough demographics here to back this up, but my gut says the Democrats are suffering from white flight. Like NYC in the 60s and 70s, the Democratic Party is dealing w/ infrastructure collapse, a bankruptcy of ideas and —same old same old — white backlash .

Meta keeps covering itself in glory.
Trump has people like Hegseth in his administration to make himself look like a moderate Nazi. But it’s not hard to imagine the “originalist” majority of the Supreme Court upholding sweeping executive-order attacks on the 19th Amendment.

Was she threatened with prosecution for an alleged financial disclosure oversight? By an administration that is a 20-mile-long freight train of disclosure violations and bald faced corruption?
Probably.
