Who canโ€™t look ahead and see the storm that will kick their butts. How simple can this choice be?

Itโ€™s the ability to foresee all that can go wrong in the future. Head-in-sand? Too lazy to stay informed?

Guess what? THEY are MAGATs!

Vanity Fair, Olivia Nuzzi Agree to Part Ways Nuzzi and the magazine will let her contract expire at year-end, following new allegations and revelations about her conduct while she reported on Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Reviews of the book have been overwhelmingly negative. So have been the reviews of Nuzzi, but some rag (or FOX) will hire her to shill for them.

PS Vanity Fair knew who/what she was before they hired her. Ethics? If she can sleep with a good story & sell mags, no prob..

Trump decided on the pardon after former Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-SC) raised the case with him following a round of golf. Leiweke had faced charges of rigging the bid for a $375 million basketball arena that was later built for the University of Texas. He had pleaded not guilty.

F-ing said way to govern.

If he had a dose of reality rather than a bottomless pit of needy insecurity, Grandpa Sleepy Cankles would see what these baubles really mean.

People are humiliating him with false praise. The more he receives, the more pitiful he appears.

We could plant more peanut butter trees near grocery stores, right?

Boo-fโ€™ing-hoo. A scam is just a scam.

No sympathy if you fell for an unregulated scam that only benefitted the ultra-rich or the very lucky.

Bravo! Somebody with cajones has arrived on the scene of the crime.

Doncha wish LA, et al would have done the same?

If they did, Kristiโ€™s Brown Shirt terrorists might have been forced back under the rocks they came from.

Life would be perfect โ€ฆ

If everyone could eat gasoline; or, if we had peanut butter powered cars.

Until then, the food crisis is more impactful.

His ad hominem responses to John Berman were totally โ€œtransparent,โ€ as Trump likes to define his admin.

Another day/more suspicion.

Emotionally stunted children playing at being adults

Billionaires whoโ€™ve lived inside bubbles w/o real human contact

People whose friends never tell them that they are full of shit or inappropriate

People who canโ€™t read a room

Narcissists who believe they can do no wrong

Fools and jesters

You know better. Nobody will be accountable because weโ€™ve become a spineless country.

While the Admin still suggests they were still a threat.

If Hegseth, et al are innocent, why are we on our 4th or 5th explanation? Also, why are the sycophants (like Tom Cotton) rallying around him?

BREXIT is the death of GB. When will the hearings, innvrestigations, and tribunals be held to meet out accountability?

Oh, sorry. Just like the US. Too big to prosecute.

Wouldnโ€™t it be nice if there was a recall election in the Constitution?

Article 4. In the event a dickhead is elected President, โ€ฆ

Fโ€™me. They might as well give one to Hitler posthumously.

Maybe an honorable mention to Pol Pot?

These fโ€™ing sycophants disgust me as much as the ever-needy, always insecure Donald.

Cowardice as body language. All he needed to do to retain his humanity was to turn and walk out.

Simple, huh? Nope, not among Republicans.

True. Does that mean that they are checking who would be embarrassed before they DO name him? Relative of someone powerful?

Trump is set to host Congo & Rwanda leaders for peace talks.

Hasnโ€™t he said, like a million freaking times, that he already stopped this war?

Is this a new war? Will it be #9 on the WH Psychoโ€™s Peace Prize wanna list? The guy who kills innocents in the ocean & threatens Venezuela w/o a predicate?
