"You Can't Tell Me That's Not Donald": A C-SPAN Caller Who People Think Sounds Like Trump Is Going Viral

Has anyone checked the tranche of Epstein files for mentions of John Barron, John Miller, David Dennison, and Carolin Gallego as stand-ins for Trump?

Is it just me, or is this evening news every single day?

ICE is murdering US citizens in MN and trying to frame it as self-defense against terrorists.

If you're sentient, you're likely human.

Otherwise, you are Elon.

DefSec Pete was touting its new military AI availble to servicemembers. One of them decided to relaye a "hypothetical" missle strike on a boat and its subsequent surviors to get its assessment.

"Unambiguously illegal" makes it pretty clear that these are extrajudicial killings.

This is literally the visual representation of what the MAGA Right would like everyone to believe is happening in NYC because of the outcome of the mayoral race.

These jackals seem to have forgotten that key bit from a pledge they gleefully recited as children: "...one nation...indivisible...with liberty and justice for all."

Trinidadian Family Says U.S. Military Killed Relative in Boat Attack

Is there hope that those that those Trump administration officials that planned, ordered and carried out these extrajudicial killings will ever be held accountable for these murders?

Fettered no more, sweet angel. Run free from the burdensome weight of this mortal coil. You are so loved and will be missed for the rest of my days.🐶💔

It would be lovely if we could get to a place where it's wholly normalized that the wealthiest among us would -- for each additional home they acquire -- build an equal amount's worth of affordable housing for the rest of us.

The GOP-led Congress will kill people with these Medicaid cuts, much in the same way that DOGE killed hundreds of thousands of children & adults with their funding malfeasance.

Sarah Palin conjured up the notion of “death panels” in a bygone era of political deception that’s charmingly quaint by MAGA standards.

Infuriating to see GOP Senators pick up that mantle, set aside all semblances of morality and ready themselves to pass the heinously inhumane budget bill. Shame!

Oh lawdy! Please let this be AI.

So lemme get this straight…

Trump can bomb Iran but claim he’s warring against only Iran’s nuclear program and not Iran at large.

Does that mean he’s fine if Iran attacks US military facilities in Qatar but also pretends that they’re not attacking the US proper?

Being MAGA is such a PLMF — pretzel logic mind fuck.

This demented dotard loves to talk about himself in the third-person, but this is a case where he was also prognosticating his own future complicity.

Salmonberries are a common wild berry in the Pacific Northwest, thriving in coastal forests and along streams. They're an important food source for birds, bears & other wildlife, and have long been foraged by Indigenous peoples for food & medicinal uses.

I'm flummoxed at how the Israel-loving MAGA faction squares itself with its neo-Nazi faction that is entirely anti-Semite. Is it a shared hatred of Islam and the Arab world that bond these two?

These two's egos and bellies would keep their micros from ever making contact much less slapping.

Analysis | Rubio’s claim that it’s ‘a lie’ that people have died from foreign-aid cuts The secretary of state rejected convincing evidence documented in news reports and by disease modelers.

We must never forget that the actions of Elon & the DOGE Bros have lead to an estimated 300K deaths (of which 2/3 were children) that didn't need to happen. Such appalling behavior for someone that purports to want to grow human population.

Equally appaling: Rubio's tacit blessing of these deaths.

RIP, Loretta Swit. Thanks to your character’s brilliantly quick wit, you always kept those boys in the Swamp in line. Thanks for the laughs.

In an AI generated image of a sandy beach, shells are arranged to spell out PSALMS 109:8. That Bible verse, as rendered in KJ21 is: “Let his days be few, and let another take his office.”

On a beach not far from James Comey …

They’re def all in on the con. Here’s a slightly tweaked version of your image that puts hands on ears for the middle guy.

We're in vehement agreement here ... my typo-laden comment didn't help make that clear.
