The UK is most certainly a friend to this country - but yeah, it ain't NO friend of this president.

You can be both - hell, ALL of us antifa, "No Kings" protesters are both, dude.

Yeah, just cuz he's pardoned don't mean he weren't guilty. Siddown, Rudy.

I will say, though, that once again - every accusation is a confession. He says this because HE is the one with the stench. Literally.

Interesting. I was on social media ALL day. Granted, I have a heavily curated feed - I hate trolls and bots and do my best to avoid them. But I never saw WHO this man was. All I saw were posts pointing out how Trump reacted (as in, he didn't, not for several seconds, and he never offered to help).

I don't know what she's doing - I don't know if SHE knows what she's doing. She's trying to do SOMETHING - strategize, maneuver, something! But WHAT (tf)?

What they need to learn from Mamdani is that if you actually listen to your constituents, commit to fighting for them and their needs vs. selling out to corporate interests and the oligarchs, you can take on anybody.

Nah - it would embarrass him 😜.

One of the reasons he suspected I was his soul mate (above and beyond the initial attraction) was because of this film - the name of one of the characters was spelled the same way I spelled mine. It's all rather hilarious, really!

Exactly. EXACTLY.

My husband (then bf) had me watch his "part of his personality" movie & waited to see how I would react to a certain scene. Apparently I responded "correctly," b/c he told me if I hadn't, he wasn't sure we were in fact soul mates. But once I did, that was it. (We've been married for 23 years.)

Trump said he wasn’t on the ballet.
Oh, how wrong he is.

1. Young Americans energized and their investment in a damaged society partly redeemed.
2. Corporations and cowardly civil society given reason to believe they are misunderstanding power.
3. Dems confidence boost.
4. Women voters holy shit moment.
5. Better ready for assaults on democracy ahead.

Given that some Republicans are starting to wonder about their MAGA views, maybe gerrymandering won't have as much of an impact as the GOP thinks. In VA, solidly red districts went blue in the past 4-6 years. Hmm...don't want to be optimistic (see my handle), but...hmm.

New WaPo/ABC poll:

45% of Americans blame Trump and congressional Republicans for the shutdown. 33% blame Democrats.

By a 2-to-1 margin, Independents blame Trump and Republicans over Democrats: 46% to 23%.

Well, then, it may NOT be a lie. They may have already plundered those contingency funds for some other purpose (like bailing out Argentina instead of feeding US citizens).

They just say whatever they want, describing whatever they want, no matter how divorced from reality it is. And the number of folks who lap it up - some knowing it's crap, some totally uncritically unaware - is jaw-dropping.

How is he able to say this when Trump's balls are so far up his esophagus? That's impressive.

Possibly not. They don't care about the lies (they do know about a lot of them, whether they acknowledge it or not). They only care that he hates who they hate.
