Here it is. It has happened. We have the perfect social media post.

My latest: Trump Tries To Distract From The MAGA Civil War The vultures are circling, Donald. open.substack.com/pub/therickw...

“Time to drop the really big bomb: @realDonaldTrump is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public. Have a nice day, DJT!”

The way Trump is handling televised cabinet meetings “definitely gives off Dear Leader vibes, like what you would see with Kim Jong Un or [Vladimir] Putin,” says Virginia Canter, the chief counsel for ethics and anti-corruption at Democracy Defenders Fund.

Trump talks to this day about how much he deserves to see himself on Mount Rushmore. “He wants his fucking face up there with all those other greats,” an official tells Rolling Stone. Yes, Republicans have introduced a bill to make it happen. Story: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Commentary: "Trump’s betrayal of the veterans community is unforgivable. But it is not unanswerable. We are answering. In protest. In court. In the media. At the ballot box." Today, June 6 — D-Day — thousands will rally across the country to protest.

The most pointed example of the administration’s slavish devotion to the president’s self-image is within the walls of the White House, which has been transformed into a veritable shrine to Trump’s visage. Read: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

a twist on the scream by edvard munch: thread

A source tells Rolling Stone AG Pam Bondi intentionally inflated the number of lives saved by fentanyl seizures in a cabinet meeting not just to flatter Trump, but to troll the media. White House officials were howling with laughter about it. Read: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Physicians and so forth have their politics like anyone else, but every one we've spoken with hates Oz for bringing them into disrepute. And don't mention the doctors and nurses who've worked with him. We've spoken to a few. www.thedailybeast.com/dr-oz-says-p...

June 6, 1944 Never forget D day.

News: The Trump admin is spending $200M on ads in which Kristi Noem repeatedly thanks Trump for closing the border and catching criminals. Turns out the ads are being placed by the Trump campaign’s top vendor, the ad buying firm Strategic Media Services. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Round 2 is coming.

This isn’t going to help anyone. What’s the difference in real terms between 21% and 20%? A credit card is still a credit card.

these fucking ghouls

If anything, it is understated in our public consciousness how “North Korean” we have gotten in such a short period of time, even compared to Trump’s first term. We are only a few short months in and already upwards of a BILLION has been spent on making this one guy feel good about himself:

Are we great yet?

Nice job!

Finally, a NYT headline I like.

AOC: The girls are fighting aren’t they

WE NEED TO SUPPORT AND ENCOURAGE BOTH SIDES HERE

Let’s not forget that earlier today, this day was known as “we cannot build bananas in America” day. That is, until everything went bananas

WE HAVE A BANANA SURPLUS LIKE NO ONE HAS EVER SEEN

Ouch. Just ouch.

Conservative scorning, poster's warning. Conservative fight, poster's delight.

Everyone in my friend group said I would probably be the first one of us to die but I guess the joke's on you isn't it Jim

I absolutely hate having to ask for help, but for the first time in my life, I feel completely helpless and hopeless. Everything bad that can happen to a sarcastic twit like me has happened in a single month, capped off with a bad car wreck that I am grateful to have survived. Much love, friends

"...so anyway, that's why I'm worried about the future of Krypton" [heckling voice from the back] MORE LIKE BORE-EL AMIRITE

If you scream at the puppets wandering the halls at night, don't blame us if they scream back.

A Reminder From Our Comedy Lounge: Please do not record tonight's Joni Ernst performance of "Seasons In The Sun."

Aragorn: you have my sword Legolas: and my bow Gimli: and my axe Me: and my cat

all the troop and cop fetishism has led to something really remarkable: legions of unaccountable masked stormtroopers just nabbing people in sleepy little towns. struggling to think of any conception of a free and open society that could honestly countenance this

NEW: Meet the 22-Year-Old Trump’s Team Picked to Lead Terrorism Prevention One year out of college and with no apparent national security expertise, Thomas Fugate is the Department of Homeland Security official tasked with overseeing the government’s main hub for combating violent extremism.

This will have precisely zero to do with Jewish safety, just as the original travel ban had zero to do with Jewish safety. It will have everything to do with animosity towards Muslims, despite being enacted in the name of and in spite of the protests of Jews who asked for no such thing.
