Since the election I worried I’d never laugh again~~

Who knew the Dotard would fix that by trying to throw a fascist parade for himself!

Editorial: We need our leaders to stay cool as ICE-related chaos gets hot Provocateurs on the right and left were the story of a chaotic weekend in Chicago. Our political leaders need to reclaim the narrative and cool things down.

A fascist dictator is ordering armed troops from another state to invade the city of Chicago, and the Chicago Tribune editorial board reacts by warning Gov. Pritzker and Mayor Johnson to avoid injudicious language. Really.

It really does not carry the same weight as when her ObersturmbannfΓΌhrer lies for her leader.

I thought they were running away from an alien invasion. And no, not the alien invasion that Trump talks about. The real one when our new Lords and Masters from Alpha Centauri arrive to sort out the mess that their cattle have made of their earth. I have already pledged my fealty.

They never use the words lies, deluded, confused. The American media really does have a problem with the reality of Trump.

Ms. Martinez’ lawyer says body cam footage shows the agent turned into HER car and yelled β€œdo something bitch” before firing shots.

This is harrowing viewing but necessary. Especially with the rise of state sponsored violence throughout the world.

ICE is nothing but a gang of thugs. Their actions are indefensible. Hopefully there will come a time when they will be put on trial for their actions.

He deserves a special award for doing his job. An award that would really piss off Trump.

I completely agree. And in the UK, we have just had a similar right wing propaganda channel open that is having a very serious influence. I would offer my judgement on the decline of civilisation as we know it to 24 hour news generally for adults, and smart phones for children.

Take back that insult! Murdoch is Australian! We do not claim him. We do not want him. And we have now got an equivalent channel that’s opened here in the UK and it is having an equally disastrous influence.

Hey, we have stupid people in the UK too. And ours looks more like a toad than yours!

He really is just like a big kid. Don’t touch that: touch. Don’t look up at the Sun: look. Don’t screw up the country: screw. Don’t denigrate everyone who is not you: every word out of his mouth!

I agree. Even from 3000 miles away he looms over the UK as well. Every news broadcast and most discussion programs are about him. It is tiring. If I thought it meant anything at all, I would send you my thoughts and prayers. Stay strong, my American cousin.

Thank you for posting this. It is necessary at this dreadfully divided time in your country to realise that disagreement does not mean hate or anger. The Trump party is not the party of McCain. And it is a reminder to those who need it that President Obama was a good man. Good: as simple as that.

A poster done in the same style as the British World War 2 "Keep Calm and Carry On", but this one says, "Freedom Is In Peril. Defend It With All Your Might."

The Brits made another WWII poster, but for some reason this one doesn't get as much traction:

I haven’t seen this before, but it is very appropriate for today. Thank you for posting it.
