Every time Melania opens her mouth, all I can think about is Latka from Taxi.

We cannot legislate or litigate insight, understanding, or wisdom. You can lead a MAGA to reason, but you cannot make them think. If there are genuinely irreconcilable differences between masses of the US population, what becomes the prudent and practical response?

I wish Trump and his band of soulless and brainless minions were the real problem. But the problem is the shallowness and lack of insight and wisdom of the husks that elected them. And that’s a human development issue.

Adelita Grijalva should sign the discharge petition whether she’s seated or not. Trump does stuff he “can’t do” every day. Why shouldn’t she?!

This is going to seem insane… But I’m starting to get the feeling that the Attorney General of the United States doesn’t have the best interest of the American people in mind.

This makes Jason T Dickerson a Repugnican. I wish him all the worst.

Jason Dickerson is the Republican candidate for a special election here in Georgia, state Senate seat. He has to face a runoff election with a Democrat, Debra Shigley. Look at the garbage text I got from this dickhead today-

If there’s “no place for violence in America”, then why is there so much? It’s a foolish thing to say and contributes nothing to the understanding of the way things are.

Matthew Sigmon @furtherelement.bsky.social · 14/09/2025

@matthewjdowd.bsky.social Kirk clearly has some responsibility for what happened to him. The phrase “ there is no place for violence in America“, is utterly meaningless. It’s even less meaningful than just saying “stop it“, which just expresses a preference.

What is the form the mobilization you mentioned with @nicollewallace.bsky.social today? Agree we need adequate leverage to push back, but who organizes this and how?

010

Matthew Sigmon @furtherelement.bsky.social · 27/08/2025

I think it’s time to create a singular, formal opposition to the GOP/MAGA, and it’s not the Democrat party. It has to transcend and include Democrats. Someone with wisdom, voice, and leverage needs to orchestrate it. Now.

Matthew Sigmon @furtherelement.bsky.social · 27/08/2025

I think a 21st century Civil War has already started-been forced on us-and the only choice is whether those who prefer democracy surrender without a fight, or we gather into a singular force of opposition with the leverage to affect change.

Matthew Sigmon @furtherelement.bsky.social · 26/08/2025

Picking apart the reasons why things Donald Trump says are ridiculous is like carefully analyzing why rotting roadkill isn’t suitable to serve for dinner.

@bestese34.bsky.social I don’t blame you. I think your assessment was perfectly objective. There was a little poetic license, but it reflected provable objective facts. Maybe you, like the rest of us, can’t fucking stand it anymore.

Matthew Sigmon @furtherelement.bsky.social · 28/05/2025

Here’s what’s going on, I’ve been saying it for years- we have a wisdom crisis, and that crisis is a symptom. The fundamental cause is widespread stunted human development. The solution is complex, but a good start is accurate diagnosis.

@amandamarcotte.bsky.social Excellent contributions on Greg Sargent’s Daily Blast! Regarding Trump‘s temperament,“emotionally incontinent child” is right across the plate. It would almost inspire sympathy if the guy wasn’t 80 years old. Also agree, his shtick is genuinely getting boring. Insightful!

@marcelias.bsky.social Excellent appearance on Deadline: White House with @nicollewallace.bsky.social Points powerfully delivered. I and many tax paying citizens in the US are sick of fucking with Trump. You brought some of that energy today.

It was an impossible situation that PM Carney made as positive as possible. I can’t imagine how he could have handled it better. Classy!

I don’t like being lectured by Donald Fucking Trump on what I don’t need or what amounts to excess. Can we put this cocksucker on the rack already? Christ.

I assume they’re either brain dead or afraid like Senator Murkowski. If so, they should rethink their choice of vocation as one that requires them to stand on sound principles. Their personal sense of safety or danger has nothing to do with the work they took an oath to perform.

020

Matthew Sigmon @furtherelement.bsky.social · 19/04/2025

Senator Murkowski announcing that she and her colleagues are “afraid” is interesting. Maybe she shouldn’t have chosen a vocation that’s only valid if you stand on sound principles. Easy, difficult, safety, or danger has nothing to do with it.

I would like to draft this far more appealing, infinitely more capable replacement for Donald Trump as president.

If I break the law and defy a court order, police come and drag my ass to jail. Trump and his cabinet do it, and we podcast about it while the news cycle goes apeshit. We need enforcement. The law needs to grow some teeth.

Every member of the House and Senate have a choice they must make: go with the authoritarian flow out of self interest and lust for political power, or rediscover the meaning of public service.

It’s already too late. But I also believe most relationships have to fail before they can succeed. The flame went out today. Now it’s time to burn the house down.

Matthew Sigmon @furtherelement.bsky.social · 15/04/2025

It’s stunning that the finale in our system of legal layers is “come on, play along because we have NORMS, damnit!” Ultimate enforcement relies on the executive branch (e.g., the U.S. Marshals Service), which the president controls!

Matthew Sigmon @furtherelement.bsky.social · 15/04/2025

2/2- Ultimately, the crisis reveals the U.S. system’s dependence on political norms and the willingness of leaders to respect the rule of law. Just as well we discover this unthinkable flaw now.

010

Matthew Sigmon @furtherelement.bsky.social · 15/04/2025

1/2- If a president refuses to comply with Supreme Court orders, the only formal constitutional remedy is impeachment, which is difficult to achieve in a polarized Congress. Courts can issue contempt orders, but enforcement depends on the executive branch, which may refuse to act.
