Shame on Google

Now or four years from now, they will never admit it.

It's not his competence I fear. It's the next competent guy who comes along and exploits all the damage Trump has done to our democracy.

Let’s. Do. This! 😎✨ 👇👇👇

Ha!

Someone tell that sanctimonious pixie Speaker Mike Johnson that if he places conditions on California's ability to rebuild, his state, Louisiana, the Welfare Queen of Federalism, won't be able to fix any of its roads because that money comes from the far more successful economy of California.

Who else is really looking forward to not watching the Inauguration? 👀 👎

January 6, when the person who lost is a gracious, sane adult, not a petulant, crazed toddler.

Washingtonpost.com editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes since 2008 says she quit after this cartoon was spiked:

In 1979, Jimmy Carter had solar panels installed at the White House. Ronald Reagan had them removed. We may be able to trace back the current "Do Harmful Things if it Trolls the Libs" Republicanism to Reagan removing those panels the far more forward thinking Carter had installed.

Duh!

The act of terrorism in New Orleans is heartbreaking and tragic—but I'm grateful for the bravery of local first responders. My thoughts are with the city of New Orleans, those who were injured, and the families and loved ones of those who were killed as they grieve and heal.

Congratulations to Elon Musk for making cars so bad that no one can tell if a car bomb has just happened or if the car just did that.

35% were cult members, but 50%? That was just flat-out hatred of others. Hands down. Never about the price of eggs.

If your response when people are killed by someone driving thru a celebrating crowd is to opportunistically make up facts about the driver to further your preexisting prejudices, instead of mourn the dead, your indifference to the lives of those killed means you have much in common with that driver.

This is so spot-on it’s scary.

Who was in charge of font spacing for this episode of MR. ED?

Fox News never squanders an opportunity to be assholes.

Remember this the next time a MAGA racist mocks the "tolerant left" for criticizing them.

He’s a racist far right disgrace

I was away celebrating the fact that 50 years ago yesterday, I married the woman I have loved my whole life.
