One Halloween I dressed up as the GOP's Healthcare plan.

I never made it out of the House.

FOX: Pritzker has asked you specifically to pause immigration enforcement operations in Chicago so kids can safety celebrate Halloween. Do you have any plans to alter activity tomorrow?

NOEM: No. We're gonna be out on the streets in full force and increase our activities to make sure kids are safe.

So Trump wants to test nuclear weapons.

I hope someone in the administration will remind the dementia-riddled toddler that itโ€™s the National Guard he wants to deploy in Chicago and Portland, not the Nuclear Weapons.

Taking back The People's House A proposal for using the new ballroom

I have a new Substack post. Some people say the next President should get rid of the Trump Ballroom. I disagree.

It's uncomfortable for a Bears fan to watch Aaron Rodgers play against the Packers.

All I can do is hope the Steelers win with defensive touchdowns.

This is a great, fun ad poking fun at Trump's tariffs by Governor Newsom and Premier Ford in connection with the World Series.

Missing the point of Christianity "Christians" who ignore the teachings of Jesus

I have a new post at Substack, where I talk about my faith background and how the teachings of Jesus are ignored by vast swaths of so-called "Christians."

Now that Trump is replacing the East Wing of the White House with a ballroom on his own decision, his next plans are to upgrade the American flag (which will now be red, white, and gold) and the bald eagle (now all white feathers).

On the 18th day of October in the Year of Our Lord 2025, the President of the United States, Commander-in-Chief of the worldโ€™s great military, successor to George Washington and Abraham Lincoln... posted a video of himself dumping a load of shit on his fellow Americans.

Trump publicly fantasizing about dropping a massive shit on America might be a threat, but itโ€™s also the most honest and accurate thing he has ever posted on social media.

Remember January 6? It's been 9 months since they were pardoned.

I have a new post on Substack. Today marks 9 months since the pardon of the January 6 rioters. The contrast between those and the No Kings protesters couldn't be more stark, nor the fact that Trump likes his people to be criminals.

Look up the definition of "largely." It does not fit the story. If you don't want to say "completely" peaceful because you might have missed something, you could use "overwhelmingly" peaceful, which would clearly fit. "Largely" is simply incorrect.
