Trump and the spineless elected Republicans who enable and encourage him have done a great job of taking care of their constituents. Too bad their constituency doesn't include any non-billionaire Americans.

I thought Trump served in deep cover classified operations in Vietnam. So that Vietnam era Agent Orange I keep hearing about wasn’t Trump? Well call me embarrassed! /s

This is literally what they're doing to our country - using increases in the national debt to enrich themselves and their cronies. The movie Goodfellas best explains how this business model works. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPtj...

How about a little Human Derived Protein for an alternative to beef.

General, I’d be more interested in your thoughts about the 2 Guard troops getting the Purple Heart? Not to take anything away from them, but isn’t there an β€œincurred as a result of combat with the enemy” requirement? Did Trump engage in β€œstolen valor by proxy”?

If the target audience is Dem primary voters the ads might make sense as the MAGA consensus seems to be they’d rather run against Crockett than Talerico. Hard to say how the general might actually play out, but parties are rolling the dice when they start playing around in the other party’s primary.

As a retired meteorologist, leveraging many years of both education and practical experience, my conclusion regarding this event is that - 32.8" is a buttload of snow!

"Republicans who have been labeled as fascist or Hitler" begs the question... labeled by who? Only the loony fringes of the left considered Ford to be a fascist. Serious people never took them seriously. The rest of us didn't start referring to the GOP as fascist until they started acting as such.

By the time the whole truth comes out we're probably going learn that it was Epstein and half of the Trump administration that were keeping children locked up as "tunnel tots" in the basement of a pizza place and harvesting their adrenochrome! πŸ€ͺ

Popped in here to say this very same thing! Battle of Algiers is absolutely worth the time of anyone wanting a better understanding of that time and place.

Yep AZ, where we use the voucher system so rich kids in Scottsdale can take lessons in driving a Lamborghini at tax payer expense. People ask me if I'm making that up - I wish I was. But when half the GOP members in the legislature are paid "consultants" to the private school "industry"...

In my rural county (where Trump carried over 70% of the vote) I have yet to meet so much as a single person who describes themself as former Trump supporter.

SCOTUS has started the country down a very slippery slope. By denying Trump what he wants regarding tariffs it's just a matter of time before we end up having to let that trans kid back onto the swim team! /s

My wife and I go round and round on this - she says politicians are to blame for misleading people - I say people are to blame for failing to spend 10 minutes a day consuming news from credible sources and thus rendering themselves to be uninformed idiots!

In my part of rural America the MAGAs refer to measles rashes as "freedom freckles".

I doubt that the people who show up at MAGA rallies and cheer Tump as he takes the stage while CCR's "Fortunate Son" is playing are going to be very attuned to any other ironies that might come their way.

Paul Weyrich - Wikipedia

"...Figuring prominently in this effort was Weyrich's right-hand man, Laszlo Pasztor, a former leader of the pro-Nazi Arrow Cross Party in Hungary, which had collaborated with Hitler's Third Reich." Weyrich's wikipedia entry is worth a look.

I love how Billy Jack could't just kick someone's ass. First he had to dispense a 5 minute soliloquy on how, even though he deplored violence he had no choice but to kick some ass.

Overwhelmingly they're white men with a deep seated sense of grievance that is based on lies and distortions provided by the right-wing media sphere.

As we speak nefarious antifa elements are organizing caravans of thousands of seals and walruses in Greenland. Readying for an attack on our MAGA freedom.

Fun Fact: The Trump DOL today released a jobs report claiming a 130,000 job increase in Jan 2026.

ADP (a frequently sited reputable source) released Jan 2026 job numbers last week and said there was an increase of just 22,000 jobs.

Who ya gonna believe?

FFS the MAGA loons in this country elected Ignatius Reilly from "Confederacy of Dunces" to be President! For those who have read the book, tell me that this doesn't read just like one of Ignatius' unhinged, detached from reality screeds.
