profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 7hI was already worrying in Trump's first term that he would arrest Obama or worse. His rantings today reveal a serious sickness in his soul. This guy is so far gone now ... 020
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Once Trump gets a stupid idea in his head, it's almost impossible to get it out and he keeps on repeating it for weeks/years/decades. 040
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Netanyahu is a smarter Trump politically, with the same neo-fascist sensibility. 010
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 04/10/2026It's part of an effort to undermine an Ossoff victory. 021
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Because the lungs are infected, pneumonic plague can be passed person to person. 100
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 02/10/2026It's not just Kennedy's hand. There's his face, too, with the funny smile: he's quite pleased with what Schmitt has done, and he is happy to be participating in it. 060
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 30/09/2026His Id is leaking more and more into his consciousness. 020
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Years ago Jonathan Alter wrote a column about how our future would be different if Bush had lost. Read it and you'll cry. 030
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 30/09/2026During his presidential campaign he lied about Al Gore. According to Nader, Gore was as bad as Bush if not worse than Bush. He cost Gore Florida and derailed our future. Pariah forever. 030
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 30/09/2026The NYT NYTimesing. Sen. Schmitt accused, falsely, Jack Smith of perjury, and then Sen Klobuchar nailed Sen. Schmitt's ass to the wall about the mistake. But the latter part of the story is deliberatly hidden here. 000
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Billionaires are trying to buy the government and create an oligarchy. We're getting dangerously close to "It's either us or them." If the Republic is going to survive, at some point they will have to be taken down. 001
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Trump and his associates hatch treasonous schemes every day. Every day for them is an attempt to do another January 6, 2021. 110
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Yes, the 250-yr. old Constitution is something of a rickety document, but it turns out that the reason it's failing us right now is because of the current SC's rulings supporting a monarch-president & the current Republican-controlled Congress not doing its Constitutionally-mandated job. 060
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 28/09/2026HAL in Kubrick's film "2001": "Dave. I'm afraid." 000
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Divide & conquer. The MSM is pitiful, esp. the WH Press Corps. "We have to collaborate in order to do our lousy job." 010
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 26/09/2026She's sending a hint as to what the WH Christmas trees will look like. 040
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 22/09/2026Bush II was absolutely terrible as president. With that said, over the past decade he's had the chance to redeem himself to some extent. But he's totally blown it. He's also thereby proven that he's fully as bad as his time as president reveals. 000
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 21/09/2026McConnell ended those days of "reach across the aisle" comity during Obama's presidency. But Dems like Schumer who lived in the "before era" continue to have the (antiquated) idea in their heads & haven't adjusted to the new political reality. 100
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 20/09/2026Dems should be shouting this together, as a great chorus like the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. "We will tear this stupid monument down. We will also remove the ballroom and all the other stupid things Trump has done to the WH since taking office. All of it." 020
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Trump started lying as soon as he could talk. He does it naturally; whether he knows he's doing it or not is a question for a psychiatrist with expertise in malignant narcissism. 030
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 19/09/2026WH reporters are too into themselves and high on themselves to do anything like this. The scene as described is a fantasy, but it's a good one! 000
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 18/09/2026He's been running his mouth with his blustering bs for more than a half century now. When it was just NYC, it was easy to ignore him, as most did, but now, in his full narcissistic dotage, & with the power of the presidency behind him, he's polluted the entire planet. And this in less than 2 years! 021
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 18/09/2026I take some solace in the fact that, every day, Trump solidifies his fame as the absolute worst president in our history, bar none, and that he will be vilified for as long as the Republic stands. 010
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 18/09/2026He gets it. And he gives expression to it perfectly. He's showing how resistance should be done, and by doing this he's showing the abject failure of the current Dem leadership in Congress. 010
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 17/09/2026Note that Zuckerberg has rejected the recent calls/pleas to slow AI development. This is the kind of tech bro we should all fear, an intellectual mediocity with no moral sense who is fine with engineering -- and profiting from -- a future dystopia. 000
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 17/09/2026Jeff Bezos seems actively trying to get himself positioned lower in Dante's Inferno. I think he's succeeded. 000
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 16/09/2026The man-toddler throwing a fit. Imagine what his parents went through on a daily basis. 000
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 16/09/2026I really like the art; in fact, I find the drawings wonderful and an(other) aspect of an impressive, creative mind. 000
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Rick Wilson was prescient years ago during Trump's first term: ETTD. When Biden was elected in 2020, I thought, "Great! At least the U.S. has escaped this fate." Maybe we wil still, but there's so much destruction otherwise – in DC, around the country, around the world. 010
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 13/09/2026The MSM is seriously broken. The GOP successfully hacked the MSM. The MSM is kinda happy to have been hacked. Dems could do a better job in dealing with all of this, but the Dem leadership has shut its eyes to the problem, just like it shut its eyes to the decades-long takeover of the SC. 041
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 11/09/2026What an absolutely pitiful individual. He could be in a psychological museum for seriously broken human specimens. Contemplating the man is amazing in itself. But then there's the people around him who cheer this perfect example of a malignant narcissist. It's not a good look for humanity. 0110
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 09/09/2026I'm wondering whether there will be a way to claw back any of this money going to Trump, his family, and his corrupt cronies once Trump is gone. Certainly Trump has helped to solidify the position of lots of oligarchs. 000
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 09/09/2026And the Supreme Court's conservative majority is fine with the chaos; it's basically underwritten it. 000
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 08/09/2026If Jeff Bezos were a decent human being, he would be creating non-profits for local papers all around the country -- sort of like what Andrew Carnegie did for libraries. 120
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 08/09/2026I grew up in a town in NJ from which I could see the WTC but I was out west by the time of 9-11. I remember hearing in the weeks afterward the repeated claims by officials that the air was perfectly fine to breath in NYC & I thought, "Well that's complete BS! Why isn't anyone calling out that lie?" 011
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 04/09/2026Making such threats only makes things worse. Trump and his team are undermining global faith in U.S. bonds; once that goes, ho boy, we're in for a world of hurt. ETTD. 19210
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 04/09/2026Trump's goal is to break the midterms. The SC might well let him succeed. Don't put anything past Roberts and the 4 conservative justices. 031
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 04/09/2026Leaders like Schumer and Jeffries are too stupid or passive to do this. Clueless, spineless, both past their time and certainly not right for this moment. 030
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 02/09/2026Some of the Dem talk is wimpy and vague. Court reform must be more than ethics requirements. Dems need to go beyond this & provide specifics. Ro Khanna's proposal, for example, is a very good one. 000
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 02/09/2026And George Bush blew the response that mattered. Sure, he gave a decent speech from the top of rubble a few days later. But if you imagine Gore as president, you can see right away that both the before (airline security would have been better) and the after (Mideast wars) might not have happened. 000
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 01/09/2026It's the same story over and over again: Trump does what he wants; the Supreme Court dithers; Trump continues to do what he wants; faced with a fait accompli, the Supreme Court either says "Ok" or approves it. In this instance you can see the train wreck of the midterm election system ahead. 010
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Diced onions back in the day at Greasy Tony's --- yes, that was the actual name of the restaurant -- in New Brunswick NJ. What at awesome cheesesteak one could buy there. I typically got two. Believe it or not, for a while there was a Greasy Tony's in Tucson AZ. 000
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 30/08/2026One for each of the 13 districts is a simple, straightforward argument for expansion. Add it to the major planks of the Dem Party. 030
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 29/08/2026Dems could add this to their list of general gripes to support; it seems to be another winning issue. 020
profsjw.bsky.social @profsjw.bsky.social · 28/08/2026El-Sayed made a fundamental mistake in campaigning with Piker. He's now compounding that mistake. It's probably too late for him to make it right; it's unclear how that would even happen. Shoot yourself, you're gonna bleed. The only question now is whether the shot was to the foot, stomach, or head. 120
