For years, some conservatives have wanted public executions because they thought it would be a deterrent. I've always thought the opposite was true. Let people witness the horror of these things and at least some of them will change their minds.

Somebody once said that there's a reason why the book "Profiles in Courage" was such a thin volume. Hopefully, in the future, people will celebrate this type of fealty to the rule of law.

These are the geniuses who will burn down the house when they're cold and think that that will be somebody else's problem for what happens next.

This is not true of every man, but as a man myself, I've found a huge preponderance of males who don't appreciate the problems that women have until it touches the women they love. It's like they think that if it's not impacting their lives, it's someone else's problem.

They won't care until he attacks their profit margins. This is what you get when, like health care, you put profits before people.

You know the rule of journalism, "If it bleeds, it leads." Trump is and always will be that human train wreck that we can't turn away from. As you know, we've always had this "yellow" journalism, we've just never had so much of it.

I don't mind it a bit that Trump falls asleep at inopportune moments. My problem is with the guy who wakes him up. Napoleon once said, "Let China sleep, for when she awakes, the world will tremble.

Thank you for that. In a world of people who actually practiced living up to the ethics they claim to have, these pictures would not be necessary. I'm an atheist, but I often think of the line, "Christianity (or any faith) hasn't failed. It's been tried and found too difficult to live up to."

Not only were there quotas, but the 1924 Johnson Reed Act was one of the most restrictive in our history. Regardless of how he got in, he didn't "sneak" in like many of the poor people risking their lives to get here. Sadly, this made him insensitive to others who come here our of desperation.

In light of the recent reopening of the Cornell rape cases, I feel so much better knowing that Whiskey Pete Hegseth is handing out testosterone to our military like its candy. What could go wrong there?

Just between us, I think it must have been the three to five women who have transitioned and are now playing women's sports in college. They're the ones really threatening Western Civilization!

Scientists have recently discovered the condition that afflicts many of the Trump followers. Its technical name is Smitus Defacatus Crania. Know more familiarly as "Schmidt for Brains". There is no known cure.

My own father came here from Italy, and he always was angered by people who, in his opinion, didn't come the US "the right way". This is the only thing I can figure that disturbs these Texans. Some, of course, voted for him for macho, bullshit reasons that I prefer to not even countenance.

Ian, this is what you get when you become an expert on something. The trick is to go through life knowing nothing and never being expected to do or say anything intelligent. See Trump, Donald John Ask your doctor if being an ignorant asshole is right for you.

He brags that he's the most powerful man ever, but he can't get his name on the Kennedy Center or get his wife to even hold his hand. What a loser.

God love 'em, but how in the fuck could they have been "sweet" on him in the first place? Was it the red hats? Help a brother out here.

Don't make fun of Cusma sufferers. It robs us of the ability to make rational choices and recognize people who are hitting us over the head and stealing our money. Let's hope we can cure it in our lifetimes. Please give generously.

Dear MAGA, even if you think Trump is innocent (spoiler alert, he ain't), there are still men out there assaulting young girls with impunity and you do nothing. Is America "Great Again" yet?

She actually thinks she's a feminist. She started out saying she had some sympathy for trans people and now she's posting positive comments about Kemi Badenoch and --dare I say it-- Donald Trump!

Kennedy is even worse. He acts like Gomer Pyle, but he knows better. Schmitt is just a fucking moron getting high on his own supply.

I know this woman has had horrible experiences with men, but why is she taking it out on trans people? What a piece of shit! Maybe she could spend a few of her millions on helping women who've been victims of violent assaults by heterosexual males instead of "solving" a problem that doesn't exist.

Their short-handed, short-sighted and riding the short bus to hell. Couldn't happen to a more deserving bunch!

Instead of the 10 Commandments, they should post this in every classroom and boardroom. Thanks

It turns out the "Deep State" Trump is destroying was filled with honest, hard-working men and women like Jack Smith who made corrupt politicians accountable. These MAGA morons sent this Pres. Lumpy to drain the swamp and they're stupid enough to believe he's actually doing it.
020
eric2907.bsky.social @eric2907.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
The attacks on Jack Smith are pure McCarthyism. Making allegations that you either made up or didn't verify. I'd love to see one of these gutless bastards make their phony charges in public and be subjected to defamation law suits.

If a group of lions is a pride and a bunch of alligators is a congregation, Trump's appointments as a group can only be called a cavalcade of morons.

As a kid I thought the Germans must be inherently bad because of the Holocaust. I was too dumb to understand that what happened there could happen anywhere. For Bibi's gov't to do what they're doing after all the Jews have been through is a double abomination. That stink you smell is genocide.

This is the "talent" of the malignant narcissist. Everything he does is a priori brilliant. Every failure is someone else's fault. He doesn't have the band width to understand why some people hate him because that would require a minimal amount of brains and empathy.

Every time we tell ourselves that we will never allow things like this to happen again ...and then they happen again, and again and again.

I'm writing a thing on the "prosperity" gospel people. They think that God shows his love for you by showering you with financial success. By their logic, Mr. Ketamine here would be the person God loves the most. In what world does that make sense?

As someone once said, "You can't use reason to talk people out of a thing that they didn't reason their way into." In other words, how do you convince a dumbass to stop worshipping a dumbass? It's like the circle of hell.

With Trump circling the toilet bowl, I'm going to stop talking about how stupid the US is as a nation. It's time to reclaim our place in the world and call a spade a spade. About one-third of this country is irremediably ignorant. They are not who we are and they never have been.

eric2907.bsky.social @eric2907.bsky.social · 28/09/2026
There are a lot of problems that are complicated to solve. This one, not so much. We tell Israel to pull back, accept a two-state solution (to be negotiated) or we cut off all funds. If they want to follow Bibi to hell, go right ahead, but you ain't doing it our dime. How is that antisemitic?

I love every one of those things, but they better have a plan to bring down inflation because the only thing some voters care about is what's in their wallets.

Almost alone, Orwell saw the horrors of Naziism, Communism and British Colonialism. Sadly, he is more ignored now than he was even while he was alive.

Trump is so bad that when I first read that list, my initial thought was that you weren't being fair to Hitler! There's a thought they I never thought I would think.

That's just the ketamine talking. He's actually even dumber than that when he's not high. Wait, when is he not high?

Given the current state of our politics, they may have to choose between belligerence and idiocy. Don't expect both.

Imagine if he had tried as hard to bring down prices, end wars and improve the lives of his cult members? On second thought, his only "talent" is in the area of lies and coverups.

Why is it so hard to imagine that the victim could have been your own daughter? That might change the calculus a bit. ...or maybe not.

Some (most) men see things as they are, and say why. I dream of things that never were and say why not?

Yeah, Commander Bone Spurs could "conquer" Cuba and then he'll lose interest in it and the people will wind up as fucked as the Venezuelans. You can't liberate people from a dictatorship when you don't believe in democracy. Meet the old boss. Same as the new boss.

Which group is more disgusting, Congressional Republicans or Christian Nationalists? It's like they were in a race to jettison all of their "deeply held" beliefs and worship at the feet of Jeffrey Epstein's best pal.

Yeah, but then Elon Musk couldn't have a fortune bigger than a lot of country's GNP. You wouldn't want that to happen would you?

I think she's right, but I'm still waiting for more of his cult to go "Marjorie Taylor Greene" on his ass. Where is the outrage? Is it just like Congress where people tell you what an idiot Trump is in private?

What happened to the IRS rule that outlawed this open politicking from the pulpit? Is this another thing that disappeared during the Reagan "Revolution"? 1980 will be seen as the year we really started going to hell. Gingrich, Limbaugh, Murdoch, etc. put us on the glidepath to where we are now.
