Given Xi's huge advantage on rare earth minerals and Trump's clumsy, counterproductive tariffs, the U.S. comes away from their meeting with little more than the status quo ante on soybean exports, if that -- with China having conceded only "the sleeves of the vest."

It's not just Vlad and Bibi. Hard to find a head of state these days who doesn't play the policy-illiterate, insecure Trump like a violin.

They come in new, creative forms, but if it quacks and waddles like a bribe, guess what?!

Tuberville threatens to give mindless collaborationism a bad name.

Waiting (in vain?) for Vichy Republicans to grow a pair and stop collaborating with Trump fascism. No one captures that collaborationism like Mike Johnson, less House Speaker than legislative gelding.

With Trump, it's always the same stream-of-consciousness bulls***, no matter the venue. Not one of his predecessors would have even considered making such blatantly partisan remarks to U.S. troops, let alone those serving abroad.

That TV ad was devastatingly effective because it accurately quotes the conservative, free-market President Reagan to rebut Trump's mindless support for, and heavy reliance on, tariffs.

Has there ever been a more blatant example of vindictive prosecution than Felon-in-Chief Trump's case v. N.Y. Attorney General James?

Having completely botched Pentagon public affairs, can only imagine the degree of Hegseth's incompetence and illiteracy on national security issues.

Yet another reason to vote for Mamdani.

No problem. Electronic ankle bracelets come in all sizes.

This is what passes for a "military op" for a guy who bought himself a dubious, likely fraudulent medical exemption from U.S. military service at the height of the Vietnam War. Guess it makes him feel like he's got a pair.

How 'bout pledging to demolish Trump's gilded ballroom on the first day of the next Democratic administration?

At once an indefensible position and the Washington Post's obit?

Not easy to do a parody of a parody.

As Trump prepares to visit Tokyo, he's a textbook example of "matchi ponpu" -- the Japanese term for someone who starts a fire and then takes credit for having extinguished it.

Monetizing and corrupting the American presidency on a scale without precedent, is there any industry, company or individual this capitalist whore won't do if the price is right?! His 180 on crypto a prime example.

Jeff Bezos kept his distance from the WPost's editorial page and newsroom for a decade, no less an authority than Marty Baron explains in his memoir, but that sure as hell hasn't been the case since mid-2024.

Ironic, not to mention tragic, that this far-right rewrite should come on the 60th anniversary of Congress passing, and LBJ signing into law (9/29/65), the National Arts and Humanities Act, which created the twin endowments (NEA and NEH) now under fire.

Whining pussy. International embarrassment.

Keep the 25th Amendment handy (not to mention a straitjacket).

Vulgarians at the gate.

The insecure Trump overreacts to an ad accurately portraying him as trade & tariffs-illiterate.

E.E. Cummings's phrase for that: "There is some shit I will not eat!"

Beavis and Butt-Head join their father in shamelessly monetizing the presidency on a scale utterly without precedent in American history.

Having completely botched Pentagon public affairs, can only imagine the extent of Hegseth's incompetence on national security matters.

Hegseth unqualified to run Pentagon public affairs, let alone the Pentagon.

No better metaphor for what Trump is doing to American democracy.

Trailing by double digits with just ten days left, Cuomo threatens to give the politics of desperation a bad name.

Not to mention the fact that one doesn't need the Reagan Foundation's permission to quote the former U.S. president.
