I’m older, educated, believe women have equal human rights; I give respect to get respected in return. I’m an independent, a wood-turner; I’m Anti-Fascist. I’d like it if we all could get along with each other. Most people are good

Ha, ha, ha, hmm, the irony is palpable. Ha, ha, ha This belongs as a cartoon in Mad Magazine.

Isn’t Tuberville one of those Republican senators who held up the promotions of high ranking military officers, who, for some reason, need a Senate approval to become even higher ranking officers? So now we find out that he’s a carpet bagger? That explains a lot.

With a denial so strong from the petulant billionaire, Tesla’s board of directors decided to get Musk’s attention with an effective “vote of no confidence” on the basis the earnings report. It absolutely definitely happened

As soon as the MAGA- people start losing their jobs due to the tariffs (and that’s gonna happen pretty damn soon), Dodgy Donald’s Low approval rating will drop even further He will wish for an approval rating as high as 30% .

Donold is demanding an investigation into his 39% approval rating. I agree, there's no way it's actually that high.

Fantastic, and unrealistic. Sorry. Most MAGAt don’t realize that they’re racist. They’ve just listened to way too much right wing racist propaganda on Fox News, and to Rush Limbaugh. Children aren’t racist, they learn to be so in the wrong kind of school.

Dodgy Donald and his dumb-shit made for TV buddy. If Dodgy Donald wasn’t already suffering from Age related cognitive decline, he’d realize that Hegseth just contradicted him.

It’s pretty easy to make money if the only thing you’re worried about is: “what does it cost?” Now that dodgy Donald has kicked the legs out of the assumptions. Bezos has made on where to get the goods that he’s selling. He should be very afraid. With tariffs, Trump has upended the Apple cart

Confirming: Trump lies and makes shit up.

Thank you, Karl in Canada, for pointing out the fundamental differences between the qualifications of the leaders of Canada and Mexico, respectively; versus the qualifications of our grifter-in-chief. I am so sad to admit you are completely correct.

I’m an older professional guy, a few years ago I found out that on average, women doing the same jobs as men were paid $.78 on the dollar. And women have to do their jobs “better than men”. It appears this inequity continues to this day. Women deserve equal pay.

If the question is: how stupid does Trump think we are? The answer is: pretty goddamn stupid. This is our chance to keep on repeating this refrain: Trump is violating the constitution he swore to uphold. He is violating his oath of office: Trump trafficked an innocent man to a foreign prison.

Whole I appreciate the graphic indicating that once again Dodgy Donald has failed to deliver on his critical campaign promises. And I’m sure that the MAGA crowd is equally disappointed in his failure to make improvements. Surprised? No. Trump lies continuously.

All we had to do was fill in that little oval next to the name of the only qualified candidate on the ballot -> Ms. Harris All of this chaos and all of these awful things are a direct result of electing an unqualified criminal rapist clown.

Madam President of Mexico has utilized tariffs against El Salvador in a way that underlines the belief that nobody deserves to be locked up in a concentration camp. Not even criminals. Well done.

Common sense is “uncommon” I’m glad too.

A judge ruled that Trump‘s current application of the alien enemies act is illegal. The next step will be to force Trump to go after all the people he’s deported thus far and bring them back

Darn; we were hoping that if he went you-all might keep him from coming back for a while

1/2: I was in Holland when Clinton had his “lapse of Judgement” regarding Ms. Lewinsky. The Dutch felt this was a private matter: only Monica, Hillary and Slick Willy needed to concern themselves… The French thought every President needs“a mistress” And in Italy they stated Bill needed a harem.

Hell yes; and make sure they throw away the key, also making history for better reason.

As usual with Dodgy Donald - the exact opposite is the truth. Trump lies every time he needs to deny that he’s messed up (big time). What a hoser -Trump inherited a stock market that was near a historical high in value - Trump’s dodge: blanket high tariffs without coherent strategy is a disaster

I know I’m repeating the obvious. I wish I didn’t have to, Trump said whatever he felt he needed to to get elected. He never intended to deliver on any of it, except those awful things that benefited him. Images summarize his progress.

If you wonder about why Dodgy is gutting so many organizations in the south. It’s because it’s MAGA territory and opposition resistance will be less.

Thank you, Robert Reich, This explains why “Machiavellian Musk” volunteered to do this job. He was hoping to Gut the Federal Agencies that were investigating his Cabal of businesses. His cost to do so was trivial by comparison.

SOS is short for: Save our souls. It is just as true for us, here safe in our homes as it is for these poor people who have been removed from their homes. Think about these people before you go to sleep tonight All they want is a better life for themselves and their kids .
