I totally disagree with, K.Anderson in today’s NYTimes who writes, “Mr. Trump feels America has sent him to Washington on a mission.” NOT. He thinks nothing of the sort. He wanted to be there to rule—and he is playing king. Nothing more.

For every beginning, there is an end . The US was birthed under a mad English king and is knocking at death’s door under a mad elected felon.

Cheers to Ill. Gov. Pritzker who rallies those in despair: “Tyranny requires your fear and your silence and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage. So gather your justice and humanity, Illinois, and do not let the ‘tragic spirit of despair’ overcome us when our country needs us the most.”

Google kisses the ring: If Google can change the world-wide recognized name of the Gulf of Mexico, what else will it change to satisfy a dictator?

Done with Google Maps: Acc. To WaPo: “Google Maps says U.S. users will see Trump’s new name for Gulf of Mexico”

This is a big deal.

Dems poking the orange idiot with his bro’s power grabs isn’t ‘teasing’ as is being reported: It’s full blown mocking!

‘Scapegoat’……..because people need some one or some thing other than themselves to blame and/or make fun of.

A top Senate Democrat accused conservative Supreme Court justices of violating federal disclosure laws in a lengthy report that caps a monthslong investigation by the Senate Judiciary Committee and comes weeks before Republicans take control of the chamber: cnn.it/4gPJ7TD

Yep. You got played, but not by the Dems. (Are the Rs really that stupid or do they have a brain implant that spews nonsense?)

This would make me change my mind re: letting subscription lapse.

MUMP!!!! Brilliant!!!

Oh, Felonia still wants to be president—to stay out of prison, but he’s quite happy to have a shadow government leader like Elonia. Bottom line: He doesn’t care about anything or anybody but himself.

Question Re: UHC CEO assassin. He’s mad at healthcare. He’s 26. Has his healthcare coverage recently been dropped?

ProPublica’s reporting on the egregious malpractice of one physician, the collective collusion by healthcare professionals, and a healthcare system that seemed only to happy to keep the physician on staff and bringing in the bucks is chilling.

I’ve always thought that MTG and Bobo were the queens of disgusting rhetorics and behaviors but now Mace seems to be forcing them to defend their crowns.

Racial bias is—and has long been—a serious failure within law enforcement personnel. Question: Can more training alter the behavior of bigots and bullies—especially now that they see elected officials participate in and condone such behavior? www.nytimes.com/2024/12/08/n...

I’ve told you that I was in NYC today, but I didn’t mention that I learned to spin paper at the NYGH meet-up. Don’t know that I’ll ever use this unusual knowledge, but you never know…..

What a lovely day in NYC today….but can I bitch a bit about the arm-in-arm saunterers? Saunter is not a thing that is done in NYC.

I didn’t identify the president before Biden by name, and won’t do it for the incoming. From today, I’ll identify him as ‘Felonia’ — rhymes with his bros moniker, ‘Elonia.’

Facts matter. Science saves lives. Anti-science destroys them.
