The most Dems can come up with is "strongly worded statements."
So here's the question.
If the Trump goons are telling federal judges to kiss their ass on a daily basis, WHY do Democrats think they'll respond to a "tsk, tsk" from them? Do they just think it's what their voters need to hear?

Yeah...George Clooney's "Op/Ed."
They're all happy now, because we have a president who is systematically dismantling our democracy while lining his pockets and orchestrating the most severe re-distribution of wealth from the working class to the investor class since Ronald fucking REAGAN.

He's not perfect. No United States president was perfect. JFK and RFK were married men and they were tag-teaming Marilyn Monroe. The Republican attacks on Joe Biden, while propping up a rapist, felon, life-long career criminal, serial adulterer, racist con man pig are a source of national shame.

They lie IN THE FACE OF NUMBERS. You can hold up the MATH that PROVES, CONCLUSIVELY, that they are LYING They NEVER back down from their lies. NEVER. Catch them red-handed + they just lie with more conviction. Then they blame Democrats for whatever damage they caused, & their voters BELIEVE them.

Yeah...and I'm sure you recall her going into the hospital for what was described as "a routine kidney procedure" and coming out with larger breasts. It was like magic!

She's been in the USA for A QUARTER OF A FREAKIN' CENTURY and speaks ENGLISH like an English As A Second Language student on the first night of CLASS. And who cares, really, except MAGAts yell "If you're going to LIVE here, SPEAK ENGLISH" to anyone not speaking English, so to hell with her, + them.

Yeah. Who out there believes that Democrats are going to stop cowering before and relenting to Republicans before next November?
Because on June 25, 2025, I'm not seeing ANY EVIDENCE that they will.
This will take more than "When they go LOW, we go HIGH."
And I'm not convinced they're up to it.

Miller only cares about the ethnic cleansing aspect. He told ICE to "just go down to Home Depot and start making arrests."
Miller spent MOST OF 2024 crowing about what he was going to do and how he was going to do it, and 77 million American voters said "I'LL HAVE SOME OF THAT."

A collision-course of ideologies was inevitable in "Trump V 2."
The people who are going to pay the price, above and beyond any Military casualties, will be husbands, wives, fathers, mothers, children.
Trump's "parade" flopped, so he needed some way to "demonstrate his power," like bombing Iran.

It's not the most ideal time to "Identify as a Christian," unless one wants to indulge in a lengthy "I'm not one of them" defense.
I was born and raised as a fine upstanding Italian Catholic boy in a small Massachusetts town.
I feel NO "kinship," I have NO "common ground," with the "Evangelicals."

Thank you Max!

Yeah, of course, once again, Dems are waiting for an "appropriate response" from Republicans that they are not going to get.
We're 150 days into this administration and Democrats are still in the same state of cowering inertia and "sternly worded statements" that they were on Day 1.

Yeah, but there are ways to do it, and ways not to do it. "Disturbing the peace" and having that result in a desired outcome is an art form. The biggest deciding factor, I'd say, is that the people who are reactionary, emotional and impulsive don't get what they want. The ones who are focused do.

The problem with the initial reaction from Congress is that Democrats are saying "Trump DID NOT HAVE the authority to circumvent Congress in this decision" and Republicans are saying "Of COURSE he did." And, they have the votes. And, John Roberts anointed Trump as the Christ Child.

If they legitimately felt any shame, they wouldn't do it.
I don't think it's shame.
I think it's fear of being identified, recognized, held accountable, any number of things, with shame not being one of them. Trump tends to make crazy people think they're above the law, just like him.

Trump "knowing it's over" is TERRIBLY OVERSTATED and probably nowhere near the truth. Trump KNOWS the "NO KINGS" protesters whipped his fat rapist felon ass in terms of his pathetic obsession with "crowd size." But his reaction is to go deeper into denial, and therefore, become more dangerous.

I don't know how true the "allegations" against him are, but if there's a shred of truth in them, he doesn't just LOOK creepy.

I have to believe he's just like her if he picked her in the first place, and if he stayed with her. I don't think he learned about her shooting the puppy from her book, and if all of America knows about Lewandowski, he must too. So it's a "marriage of convenience" in one way or another. Yuck. 😂

I would say he hates Iran more than he fears Putin.
A big part of it is Obama's deal with Iran. Trump is obsessed with not only erasing African Americans from the history books in GENERAL. He has a real "I am your retribution" thing for Obama, pure mental illness and madness, but it's real as rain.

His LANGUAGE, his "COMMUNICATION STYLE," is SO ANNOYING. It's easy to see why he gets along with Stephen Miller:
1). Libs hate Miller, which means Trump loves him
2). Miller is a "more literate" version of Trump. Miller has the ability to write more-or-less grammatically correct complete sentences.

Got that one from my dad, ingrained in me. I am always early for everything. He got some things right and a lot of things wrong but that one was at the top of his "must always do this" list.

I was reading about Nat'l Guard and Marines getting a very small number of hours in "Crowd Control Training" while the L.A.P.D gets 600, both yearly. PROBLEM IN LIFE is there is "learning" and then "trial by fire," and NOTHING prepares ANYONE for T.B.F., they have the "right stuff" or not.

Don't forget the Fourth of July. He tried to hijack that as well during his last year in office. I doubt that he'll limit himself to "one" parade per year. And God only knows what he'll do when he "takes back Christmas" this year and "makes it OK to say "Merry Christmas" again."

A common theme I think we are seeing in videos is that the L.A.P.D. isn't enjoying this AT ALL. Tensions are at a concerning high level. They have ENOUGH of an impossible task with "public relations" in calmer times. The PUBLIC, for the MOST part, is NOT siding with Trump, and cops are not happy.

You have excellent taste, Max, and Antanina & BP from the band are also two of the finest human beings I've met since I started doing my show.
