It's funny: I don't consider Pete Hegseth or Donald Trump masculine in any way. They're both close-minded, pathologically lying cowards. The polar opposite of what a real man should be.

Trump says Portland is "war ravaged." Send that fucker to Gaza or Ukraine. Let him see what war ravaged means.

Let me get this straight: A guy makes a living saying hateful things, and we're not allowed to quote him or his fans will get us fired???

So, Pam Bondi says the DoJ is cracking down on hate speech. Awesome! When can we expect to see Trump in prison?

Trump and Vance COULD have taken this opportunity to plead for tolerance and unity. Instead, they have poured gasoline on the fire and seek to divide us as much as humanly possible.

And these are leaders?

Apparently, Mr. Bible, Charlie Kirk, glossed over Galatians 6:7 (yes, yes, I know. 7-7): "As ye sow, so shall ye reap."

Where was the Right's outrage when those two Democrats from Minnesota were murdered?

Trump says the infamous birthday card didn't come from him. Okay, let's test it for prints...

Johnson backs off claim that Trump was an β€˜FBI informant’ in Epstein case The statements from the speaker come as Democrats and a small number of Republicans are pushing for legislation to compel the release of more files on Jeffrey Epstein.

What? No. He lied. He doesn't get to take it back now.

This is a common propaganda technique called "Half-Truth." You're not including what ELSE was in the bill -- the so-called "poison pill" -- that made it so unpalatable for the Democrats. The truth is, there are and have been more registered Democrats in this country than Republicans for some time.

If Trump is to be believed (a dodgy proposition in the best of times), there was no crime in D.C. yesterday. No muggings, no drug deals, no shoplifting, not even any jay-walking. Somehow, I suspect that's a lie.

The Dow Jones was higher on Biden's last day than it is today, six months later.

One reporter a day -- doesn't have to be the same person -- needs to ask Trump about Epstein.

Trump said he's reduced drug prices by 1000% -- even 1400%, which means I'm being well paid to take my meds.

Not gonna happen. I messaged them and they asked why I expected them to do anything.

I am so fucking tired of "Trump says" and "Trump thinks" and "Trump wants." This guy was nobody to me before 2015 and he's nobody to me today.

Hey, #MAGA -- Trump said other countries were "kissing (his) ass to make deals." But he's only made two out of 90, and those two don't favor us.

Fact check: Debunking 11 of Trump’s false claims at Cabinet meeting | CNN Politics President Donald Trump again turned a Cabinet meeting into a wide-ranging conversation with reporters – and again uttered a whole bunch of false claims in the process.

@cnn.com

Why do you insist on calling Trump's lies "false statements?" They are willful and repeated lies. Why sugarcoat them?
