The United States of Backlash We have entered the season of revenge. But it won't last forever.

“Trump has convinced millions that their worst self is their truth…there is no greater happiness than seeing those you hate suffer, and that there is not only no shame but even a kind of nobility in being like Trump: rude, cruel, petty, greedy and small."

Seig Heil Trump! This is where we are as of today.

Mike Luckovich gets it right as he always does

Can anyone point out a white man who was turned down as a firefighter in the LA area because the department had to hire someone of color or a woman? Because, see, I'm gonna guess that not a goddamn one exists. And, hey, tough guys, if you're so worried about DEI, get out there and fight the fires.

Stop letting these fuckers get away with this shit. Tell them they're fucking insane and they will never be allowed back on air until they get their sanity and/or dignity back.

Our relationship with our neighbors and close allies matter. Trump seems intent on screwing them up before he even takes office. Here's the literal illustration of why we can't let that happen--when your house is on fire, sometimes you need your neighbor's help to put it out.

MAGA is now blaming the LA fires on DEI, homelessness, ‘anti-whiteness’ and weather modification. They don't miss a beat on spreading their hate every chance they can get.

I used to think that when global warming truly began to bite, deniers would face reality & we could act. Now I think it's more likely it will lead to a kind of fascism that will respond to global warming by, like, executing everyone who says global warming is real.

So sick of Biden and his administration acting like Trump taking office isn't the absolute nightmare they told us it would be. Stop acting decent to monsters. Stop telling everyone we'll be okay but the fight goes on. It's a five-alarm fucktastrophe and all we get are platitudes and smiles.

Here's how annexing Canada would change American politics We took Trump literally, not seriously, about the push to make Canada the 51st state.

Watch out for what you ask for.
