I am convinced that the Trump administration had better options than the highly classified Top Secret mission to bomb Iran, but they were in a rush and didn’t want to keep fishing through boxes in Mar-a-Lago bathrooms.

I finally understand why Trump railed against the International Criminal Court. Because he has always been an international criminal and allies himself with other international criminals.

Russia is the Trump of nations. Ah, I finally get why Trump likes Russia so much.

Do you know who else famously had 'Wild Irritability and Explosive Outbursts'? Henry VIII. It’s rumored that he had syphilis, which caused his behavior. Henry VIII, that is. We cant know for certain about Trump until after his medical reports get published. www.inquisitr.com/new-dementia...

It took 29 years for America to elect a POTUS more corrupt than Bibi is. In and of itself, that isn’t enough: he needed to have that POTUS be narcissistic, racist, and completely ignorant of history and devoid of moral compass.

The world would be a much better place if Nate Silver had just stuck with baseball statistics. Thank you for attending my TED talk.

I’m sure he left to go play golf.

I have a hard time believing that this type of event isn’t what the GOP has in mind as it pushes the 2nd Amendment and leans hard into the religion clause of the 1st Amendment. It’s almost begging for its followers to wage a holy war on progress.

Let there be no confusion on this: Trump isn’t clamping down on unrest; he’s clamping down on dissent. None of this is okay. If Obama had tried any of this in Florida or Arizona, he would have been impeached before the memo was public.

The result could be a flood of capital to small banks who lack the IT infrastructure to get involved in crypto.

Tell me you hate the ACA without saying you hate the ACA.

For those that don’t understand TACO: MAGA does not extend beyond our borders. Without the groundswell of animus and threat for violence, Trump has no leverage. If someone tries to abuse you over the phone, hang up. It’s that simple.

He’s the POTUS. That’s not his wealth, if it resulted from official acts; it’s ours. We should take it. And if they weren’t official acts, they were crimes. Let Trump pick his poison.

Do you know how to get more electricians and plumbers in this country? 1) focus on the dignity of work and not the glory of wealth, and 2) support unions like IBEW and the UA, who ensure safe, stable and secure jobs for electricians and plumbers. Thank you for attending my TED Talk.

What kind of illness/condition do you need to have in order to look in the mirror after applying more bronzer than the Hawaiian Tropic bikini team and think that’s an improvement? Asking for a moronic, overweight despot.

How is this small government? I’m beginning to think these Republicans are acting in bad faith.

BESSENT: THE TIDE IS NOT COMING IN, THE LAND IS REACHING OUT.

Great question. Maybe someone should ask Podium Barbie tomorrow morning.

Sure, let’s dissect the mental and physical acuity of the former president who sought to make lives in America better while minimizing the reality of a deranged arsonist dismantling the country we’ve known and loved. What a failure to meet this moment.

A note to Walmart: Hey, if you had greater appeal to liberal and progressive voters, then Trump wouldn’t think he can use his bully pulpit with MAGA voters to make you eat the cost of his moronic economic policies. Just a thought.

Has Melania divorced Donald already?

Pretty soon, the Trump administration is going to claim they’re doing immigrants a favor by flying them to countries where the airports still work.

Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi went to a consulate in Istanbul to get a document he needed to get married. Instead, he was murdered and dismembered on the orders of Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, now a close pal of Donald Trump.

Hey Sean, challenge Pete Buttigieg to a debate on your “belief” and its clarity and see how that goes.

Just finished watching Thunderbolts*, and I gotta say, it's about time that Marvel had a movie where the villain is severe depression.

It’s a feature, not a bug.

Constitution Avenue has been selected as the main route for Trump’s Jun. 14 military parade, so for once “trampling on Constitution” will be more than a metaphor for him.

MAGA cannot accept that there are different forms of conservative thinking, because any form that is more compassionate and sympathetic is a threat to election viability. TL;DR: to quote Highlander, “there can be only one.”

When I'm heading the DHHS, I plan to do the same thing for fascism using MyPillow orders, Trump Memecoins, and red MAGA hats.

Jesus, this kind of stupidity puts Trump’s COVID-19 response into specific relief.
