Pretty damn funny

Trump seems to be in retreat. Elon is essentially gone. Their agenda is falling apart thanks to the courts, including by judge’s appointed by Trump and other republican presidents. And the financial community is fully sick of his chaos.

This TACO thing has really taken off. It’s wounded Der Fuehrer deeply. It demonstrates that he’s not as feared or strong as he thinks he is. Say and write it as often as you can.

Our mission is to conduct an exorcism.

I like my liberal silo. Sometimes I get sick of the same riffs and certitudes, though. I feel cut off from the rest of the country. I don’t know if the place is in as dire a situation as I think.

Somebody mentioned Django Reinhardt today. Now all I can hear is Paris Blues. He remains the best jazz guitarist in history.

Trump Always Chickens Out is the same Taco who sings Puttin on the Ritz. Karoline told me so it must be true.

I read that the US RCC is getting more conservative, ie reactionary. What will happen to those who advocate for the poor and oppressed? Are the children, the old, the disabled, and the imprisoned going to be completely tossed aside? It seems like the RCC is getting evangelical.

The chodes of the regime share an odd trait—they have an inordinate fear and loathing of cities. City-dwellers generally don’t fall for the lies and ginned-up hysteria. But then again, the Fox viewer swallows every bit of it.

As we now recognize, MAGAs aren’t real Christians. They sneer at the words of Jesus. They think the mainline Protestants aren’t real Christians. How many Congregationals fall for MAGA propaganda? I’d say very very few. They’re not that stupid. It’s a class-based phenom. MAGAs are a new caste

The rapid normalization of what’s going on is typical in countries with a growing tyranny. Your freedoms get nibbled down to nothing. Most people want to ignore it. But with every new outrage they don’t feel it till it bites them.

Hello Mr. Trump, Welcome to TACO world. You want extra chicken on that?🌮

Republican hypocrisy on free speech is monumental. They’re intent on nibbling it to a Soviet conformity. Sorry for the mixed metaphor. No, I don’t really care.

This is the perfect riposte to the idiocy of RFK’s worldview.
