The last couple of decades of the ascendancy of the trumpmagas very clearly illustrates that a third of this great nation is composed of ignorant sociopaths. Even if trump goes away they will all still be here.

Need to come up with an alternative word for socialism. Americans like socialism a lot. They enjoy the benefits of a society that looks out for them. Trumpmagas will come around if only we can change the words.

Committed trumpmaggats must be going (further) insane. A brown socialist muslim as mayor of our largest city? Perish the thought.

Precisely. I know it’s hard to focus with the constant barrage of chaos & confusion but pay attention to the laws he’s breaking & the civil liberties he’s stripping as we speak. #WTFAmerica #ChaosConfusionAndCruelty

I was born in the middle of the last century. (How the hell did this happen to me?)

We will eventually find out that we cut a deal with the Iranians to let them evacuate the materials from the site prior to bombing. It was a show piece, nothing more. Otherwise why would Iran have notified us of their reprisal targets and timing of launches?

Congress died the moment they allowed 147 insurrectionists to remain in office instead of expelling them and charging them with sedition. That’s just my opinion.

trump should learn that nothing ends up the way you plan and the enemy gets a vote.

Our nation and planet cannot survive four years of this. It is not sustainable.

It’s a good thing Congress isn’t alive to see this

This republican congress will not fix this. The cabinet members will not invoke. The military will not act. The only way out of this pain is at the polls. And that is a long way off.

No matter where someone was born, the United States should never tolerate inhumane treatment. Yet right now, detainees in ICE custody are facing conditions that are simply unacceptable in any country that claims to uphold human rights, let alone one that prides itself on freedom and the rule of law.

Arrest him

Republicans’ proposed Medicaid cuts would force hospitals to close. Parents like Nancy already drive hours to get their children the specialized medical care they need. Families can’t afford these cuts.

from 'this week in stupid,' my wrap-up of the dumbest shit that happened. Donny whines about the Nobel Peace Prize, Chuck Grassley demands to know how old Biden is, and more. please read the whole thing, thanks! link is here: bit.ly/3G0bB08 (and, as always, there's a longer excerpt in the alt text)

Younger people will be shocked to hear this, but way back when I grew up, anytime you saw a movie where some government official stopped someone on the street and demanded to see their identification papers, that was supposed to let you know they were the *bad* guys.

Someday there will be a big criminal trial and Stephen Miller will be frog-marched into the courtroom in chains to meet his end. Can't wait.

I remember George Floyd and hoping that I would have been brave enough to intervene (worried that I'm not). Thinking that I may be called upon to get involved when ICE kidnaps another person (and hoping I will).

I'm not especially liberal but the evil of the trumpmagas makes me look like one.
