#PutinsPoodle is barking mad.

#PutinsPoodle is barking mad.

Yes. #PutinsPoodle can stop the war. He’ll just give away the store. This is the first few shelves of canned goods and coffee. He’ll get to the meat counter once the “talks” gear up.

Oh? Some buses blown up in parking lots? Nobody hurt? Wanting to stop the negotiations? Israel pointing to it as excuse to rip the West Bank apart? Uh huhhh…. (‘Scuse me while I do the math.) www.nytimes.com/2025/02/20/w...

So #PutinsPoodle is finally coughing up the vig.

Remember Grover Norquist? Remember “Shrink the government till you can drown it in the bathtub”? Remember “Run the government like a business”? Ever considered that a business is by definition a dictatorship? Well? The reason the Republican senators are not resisting is: They’ve always wanted this!

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

Remind your more cretinish associates who love to take exception to “democracy” because we are a “republic”. Jefferson’s faction called themselves “democratic-republicans.”

This is not surprising. And saying that gender separation is absolute is ridiculous given the natural process of the distinction. Please consider this gender model.

So Trump and his oligarchy can get their very own tax cuts. Happy now?

But I thought he said he was the King....

Finally… @nytimes.com lets trump have it with both barrels over Ukraine this morning. Tell the young people around you what “the 4th estate” means. Describe your memories of “crusading newspapers” and how they stood up to power. They may not be seen again…

FINALLY!!!! Why did this take so long?!

You know what I often get when posting this? “Who’s that on the left?” We are doomed.
