Bombing of Calif clinic per FBI: "intentional act of TERRORISM.” "The clinic provided in vitro fertilization, egg freezing, surrogacy, LGBTQ+ family building and other services." This was MAGA terrorism. Expect more since MAGA believes Trump will pardon them apnews.com/article/cali...

So we can’t have DEI because of some false notion of meritocracy but low IQs, drunk texting and incompetence at the top levels of Trump administration is okay.

I haven’t viewed Fox News over the last 72 hours. Are we still at war with Canada or have we moved on to Oceania?

Not a librarian. Not a drag performer. 100% MAGA. 100% Church. If you love your kids, take them to a library. Don’t let them go anywhere near a church.

Some how 4 years of CCD and 8 years of Catholic schooling managed to stick. Hebrews 13:2: "Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for by doing that some have entertained angels without knowing it. Oh and let’s not forget Matthew 25:31-46, Exodus 23:9, Leviticus 19:33-34.

For those who missed Trump’s speech before the joint session of Congress, here are some highlights.

Damn. I’m old enough to remember when disdain for Russian military aggression was a bipartisan thing. Today’s IDGOP is balls out for Soviet Union 2.0.

Idahoans will now get a tax break for sending their kids to get molested in church operated schools. Not a drag performer. Not a librarian. Not an author or a book. 100% church guy.

A 6 person family is likely to spend more on groceries than a 2 or 4 person household. This is why the MAGA thinking on tariffs is wrong. It’s simple math. Canada with roughly 1/8 the population of the U.S. can’t but enough goods to balance the trade equation. The same is true of Mexico.

Trump’s meeting with Zelenskyy proves beyond any doubt that that the Russians do in deed have video of the Don getting doused with bodily fluids.

With economic indicators predicting a surge in inflation and possibly a recession the right move is A) Take steps to reassure the markets and boost consumer confidence or B) Set the controls for the heart of the sun and impose tariffs? www.cnbc.com/amp/2025/02/...

A little over month into Trump 2.0 and it appears the economy as measured by the Dow is doing well. My 401K misses Joe.

The identity of the true architect of DOGE revealed. One Denis More. He steals from the poor to give to the rich.

Hey DOGE serious about saving tax payers money? Cut your lord and savior back to two rounds of golf per week. If he’s not going sleep in the White House then let’s Air B&B the residence.

Just a reminder of the last time a great power negotiated an appeasement deal with a dictator.

See a pattern. Not a librarian. Not a drag performer. Sickening that we are forced to subsidize this evil through our tax code. Tax churches to cover the costs these perverts impose upon society.

Trump is replacing one form of DEI with another. Goodbye Diversity Equity and Inclusion, hello Dumb, Entitled Idiots.

Yep. All that GOP law and order talk was complete bullshit. Trump is disgrace to my brother and all police officers fallen in the line of duty.

Idaho’s State of the State Address (a.k.a Brad”s State of Confusion speech) reminded me of Monty Python’s Dennis Moore sketch. “ He steals from the poor to give to the rich. Stupid…” BTW renumbering chapters of admin code isn’t truly reducing regulations.

If a MAGA opens their pie hole regarding Biden’s death row commutations remind them that their orange lord and savior freed 5,000 Taliban murderers.

‪How do we know the DMR poll was inaccurate poll? MAGAs from the head guy on down are notorious liars and likely lied to poll takers. If being wrong is the grounds for suing someone then the Trump family should be homeless and street begging for pocket change. ‬

Hitler had his own Elon Musk-his name was Gustav Krupp. He funded Hitler's 1933 succesful campaign. Hitler then awarded Krupp the title of Fuhrer of Industry. Krupp was later charged with war crimes at the Nuremberg Tribunals after World War II. www.brennancenter.org/our-work/ana...

How does Boise State get away with this? Isn’t there some obscure state law mandating English only/ English first? Still congrats to BSU for making it to the Party Bowl. 😀

Karma is a bitch. For years Sen. Risch insisted that native communities endure the risk of the XL Pipeline. Now his constituents will have some lovely wind towers to look at.
