I'd only be worried about a Trump coup if... a) They fired all the professional generals and replaced them with loyal hacks b) They brought Nat'l Guard troops from pro-Trump states into DC until 1/20/29 c) Trump was building a massive bunker with drones next to the White House wait a minute...

A chain of gas stations that had its prices hyped up by President Donald Trump sold fuel that was allegedly stolen by its distributor, according to a lawsuit filed in federal court earlier this month. www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

Trump Hyped Up This Gas Station Chain’s Low Prices. There’s Just 1 Pretty Big Problem.
The administration’s glowing reviews of the chain led critics to speculate whether the government had a role in lowering its prices.

Dear Leader was asked if the sailors about the USS Abraham Lincoln had been deployed for too long, and the sadistic shithead answered, "not long enough." Donny is literally the worst. thank you for your attention to today's post, in which I go fucking ballistic about it. link is here: bit.ly/4xI3Xwv
what the fuck is wrong with this guy? it’s so easy not to be a complete piece of shit, and Donny can’t even manage to do that.

this is exactly what we’re talking about when we say that Preznit Fuckwit doesn’t have the temperament to be president. he doesn’t care. he’s incapable of caring. he doesn’t understand why he should care. it doesn’t even occur to him to pretend to care. he’s that fucking broken inside.

this is not a person you want in charge of the well-being of an entire nation, much less a ship with five thousand sailors on it.

but there I go again, making the mistake of expecting empathy from the shithead who had the nerve to call fallen service members ‘losers and suckers.’

listen, I don’t give one rancid shit about the Esteemed Senator Turtlehump, or the condition of his health. let his handlers play infantile games and keep him hidden away in his terrarium forever, if they want to. Senate Republicans are down one crucial vote while Mitch stays away, making it that much harder for them to inflict their fuckery on us. good.

but I do give a shit about having a robust press in this country — one that’s willing to do its job, and hold our elected leaders to account, because if we don’t have a functional press, we can’t have a functioning democracy.

do better, assholes.
